Her name is Emily Feiner.
"Emily Feiner and Jennifer Cabrera were removed from Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall meeting after Feiner questioned Lawler's stance on Trump and Cabrera recorded the event against Lawler's rules …
Feiner, whose father was involved in a landmark free speech case, believes she was targeted for her dissenting views."

#Republican Representative’s #TownHall Blows up in His Face

"Republican Representative Mike Lawler wanted to impose order during his town hall Sunday, but no amount of rule-setting could have spared him from the fury of his constituents.
"The New York Republican displayed a list of guidelines outside Clarkstown South High School in West Nyack, New York, where he was hosting his first town hall of the year.
"The list required attendees to provide proof of residency in New York’s 17th district, prohibited 'shouting, screaming, yelling or standing,' and encouraged them to 'be respectful of one another, of staff, and of the congressman.'
"But in the end, Lawler still faced tough criticism over his deference to President Donald #Trump—often in the form of shouting and insults.
" 'What are you doing to stand in opposition to this administration? And what specifically are you doing that warrants the label ‘moderate?’ asked one constituent, a video on X showed, as the crowd of roughly 700 people erupted into cheers.
" 'My record speaks for itself—' Lawler began, sending the audience into raucous laughter and jeers. As Lawler continued to limply defend his supposedly moderate record—ProPublica has found that he voted in line with MAGA Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene 81 percent of the time—his constituents refused to quiet their anger.
" 'Folks, if you want me to answer the questions, let the question be asked, and then listen to the answer,' Lawler said. 'If you’re just going to yell back and forth, the time is gonna run pretty quick.'
"Lawler told his constituents who had expressed concern about Trump’s escalating trade war and 'reciprocal tariff' policy that the president was simply responding to an 'affordability crisis.'
" 'What caused record inflation? Five trillion dollars in new spending in the first two years of the Biden administration is what gave us record inflation,' Lawler said, drowned out by the sounds of booing from the crowd.
"Constituents also expressed anger about the president’s inhumane #deportations and his attacks on U.S. #universities and colleges, Secretary of Defense Pete #Hegseth’s mounting scandals, and concerns that Republicans were planning to make major cuts to #SocialSecurity and #Medicaid."

Another #Republican #TownHall descends into chaos over #Musk and #Trump’s #DEI policies
"Only those who pre-registered and provided a valid ID for Donalds’s town hall were permitted to attend."

"Florida Representative #ByronDonalds faced hundreds of his constituents on Monday during a contentious town hall filled with boos, jeers, cheers and shouting – the latest Republican to field aggressive questioning in the public forum.
"Donalds, a close ally of President Donald Trump, defended the administration’s policies and positions as he fielded confrontational questions about Elon Musk, the Department of Government Efficiency, the #Israel – #Hamas conflict, diversity, equity and inclusion, and more.
"However, he struggled to get through answers as audience members interrupted him several times to boo or shout at him."
[...]
"Before the town hall had ended, nearly half of the crowd had walked out, according to Gulf Coast News, while many others had been escorted out by deputies."
