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.

    Ahh…see…there’s the rub…your answer is literally the first word of the first amendment.

    Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances

    Congress ain’t doing shit. Executive unitary theory means the Constitution is about as legally binding as a Dear Abby letter.
