Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) couldn’t help but laugh after Fox News unexpectedly aired a clip of her mocking senior Trump adviser Stephen Miller — right while he was live on the network.
During an episode of “The Ingraham Angle,” Miller appeared in a split-screen as a video of Ocasio-Cortez rolled. In the clip, she delivered one of her trademark zingers, declaring that Miller is “angry” about his height.
“And he looks like he is so mad that he is 4’10” that he’s taking that anger out at any other population possible. Like, laugh at them! Laugh at them!” said Ocasio-Cortez during an Instagram livestream over the weekend.
The congresswoman didn’t stop there. AOC went on to label Miller — who insists he’s actually 5’10” — as a “clown” driven by “insecure masculinity.” She urged her viewers to deflate the MAGA movement by “making fun of them.”
On Fox, Miller didn’t take it too seriously. As Laura Ingraham teased him as AOC’s “favorite target,” Miller chuckled before firing back with his own jab.
“Well, we knew — we knew that her brain didn’t work, now we know their eyes don’t work,” said Miller, who proceeded to chuckle.
“The — I mean, she’s just, she’s a mess, right? What a trainwreck! What a trainwreck!”
Ocasio-Cortez later reveled in the moment online, posting her amusement to social media.
“I cannot believe they aired this and made him listen to it live 😂 I am crying,” she wrote in a post to X.

The brief but viral exchange showcased the ongoing culture war between progressives like Ocasio-Cortez and Trump-era conservatives such as Miller — both known for their sharp tongues and loyal online followings.
