Hikind claims in a lawsuit filed in Brooklyn federal court that the freshman congresswoman prevented him from viewing her account because of “opinions he expressed” about her in replies on the social media site.

“Because of Plaintiff’s criticisms of AOC, Mr. Hikind has been prevented or impeded from viewing AOC’s tweets, from replying to the tweets, from viewing discussions associated with the tweets, and from participating in those discussions,” the lawsuit reads.

In the suit, Hikind cites a court ruling against President Trump.

Wouldn’t surprise if the judge found a way to throw this suit out, given today’s judiciary.
