Footage of Majorie Taylor Greene confronting Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg has gone viral this week.
In the video, which was filmed before the Republican rep was elected to Congress, she can be heard making a number of false and baseless claims.
Per CNN, the confrontation starts after she spots him walking towards the US Capitol.
Although he ignores her, Greene relentlessly provokes Hogg by quizzing him on gun rights and his connections to senators.
"He's a coward," Greene says at the end of the video when he finally walks away, before claiming that the survivor's activism was funded by billionaire philanthropist George Soros.
"He can't say one word because he can't defend his stance," she said.
Watch Greene harassing Hogg in the video below:Greene revealed in a written statement to CNN that the video was filmed as she was "going from office to office in the Senate to oppose the radical gun control agenda that David Hogg was pushing".
She said: "In 11th grade, one of my fellow students took our school hostage with a gun he brought to our 'gun-free' school. I understand that fear firsthand and I will always work to protect our gun rights so that Americans can defend themselves and others against bad people intent to harm or kill them."
Meanwhile, Hogg discussed the confrontation with CNN, telling Alisyn Camerota that he attempted to "keep a straight face" and practice the mindfulness and meditation techniques that he uses to manage his PTSD and ADHD.
"I was told growing up, it's just better not to respond to bullies and just walk away," Hogg said on New Day.
He added that he "absolutely" felt like he was being threatened by Greene in the video, but he told himself "if they shoot me, they prove my point."
He added: "And the reality is, they can't kill a movement."
A gunman opened fire at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, on February 14, 2018, claiming the lives of seventeen people and injuring more than a dozen more.
Hogg is a survivor of the incident and has since become a proponent of stricter gun control.
