World Series champ calls out AOC over response to Boulder attack
- The former MLB player known for his championship successes publicly condemned Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez after her response to a hate-motivated incident in Boulder, Colorado, in 2025.
- The attack involved Mohamed Sabry Soliman, who used homemade incendiary devices to set fire to demonstrators advocating for Israeli hostages, and he was in the US illegally at that time.
- Ocasio-Cortez expressed horror over the attack and condemned rising antisemitism, while Youkilis challenged her for what he called empty virtue signaling without effective action against extremist mobs chanting for intifadas in New York City.
- Youkilis criticized the response by stating that Jewish people continue to face violence, yet the reaction is repetitively performative. He challenged, "What steps have you taken to address those advocating for intifadas in NYC?"
- The dispute underscores broader concerns about antisemitic violence in the US, failed immigration policies enabling threats, and demands for political leadership to enact plans beyond symbolic statements.
