Summary

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez criticized Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, after he suggested her “Know Your Rights with ICE” webinar could be illegal.

The event informed immigrants about their rights during ICE raids. Homan claimed the webinar might impede immigration enforcement and said he was working with the DOJ to determine legal action.

AOC dismissed his remarks, stating, “Maybe he can learn to read. The Constitution would be a good place to start.”

She continues to oppose Trump’s immigration policies, including efforts to revoke birthright citizenship.

      She and Bernie are carrying the entire weight of the opposition party and therefore the future of the country. I don’t envy them.

      Politically I’m pretty moderate but I have a huge amount of respect for AOC and the way she spurs debate and brings important issues into focus.
