Summary

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) pushed back against Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, after he suggested the DOJ investigate her for “aiding and abetting” illegal immigration.

Homan accused her of helping people evade ICE by educating constituents on their constitutional rights. AOC dismissed the threats, challenging Homan to proceed and calling him a “coward.”

Tensions are high over immigration enforcement and civil liberties, with AOC arguing that informing people of their rights is legally protected.

        AOC has been a thorn in their side for years. You really think it’s possible for them to investigate her even harder than they’ve surely already done?

            Idk why this is dv’d. It’s the same thing as "don’t talk to the cops even if you’re innocent " I have had more than one attorney term me multiple times the only thing anyone ever needs to say is: lawyer, lawyer, lawyer and lawyer.
