Ocasio-Cortez: Abolish ICE and Defund DHS Because ‘We Are a Nation of Laws’
Breitbart ^ | 7 Feb 2019 | Kyle Morris

Posted on 02/07/2019 2:43:04 PM PST by KC_Lion

Ocasio-Cortez took to the microphone to fight for the rights of those immigrating here illegally.

“This is one of the most urgent moral issues and crises that we have in America right now,” Ocasio-Cortez said to a small crowd of people and reporters gathered outside of the U.S. Capitol. “This is not a political issue. Children dying in detention centers should not be a partisan concern. It should be a universal concern for every American in the United States.”

Ocasio-Cortez then insisted that President Trump was lying when he said he liked “legal immigration.”

“He said and spoke of the idea that he likes, quote-unquote, legal immigration. But that is a lie. The president does not like any form of immigration. He has been cutting down and imposing restrictions on legal forms, on the diversity visa lottery, on family unification, and so on.”

....

“We are a nation and land of laws. Not just some people are subject to laws and others are not,” Ocasio-Cortez claimed. “When we are a land of laws, what that means is that every person that steps foot on this soil deserves the consideration of due process. They deserve the protections. They deserve to have access to our Bill of Rights. That’s what makes this nation special.”

They don’t want to get rid of law enforcement, they just want to point it towards their enemies, the American people.

Jack Harris is morning on Tampa’s WFLA is talking about this nutcase. Alexandria O’Ima-Kook has a lot of wonderful sayings that the RNC could use in 2020, so they can regain the House...

Stupid but also evil. It’s very telling that she’s moderately attractive and there is no man in her life. As if she’s such a narcissist that most men know better than to waste their time.

Stupid, yes. Dangerous, yes. The stupid helps cover up her danger.. the media follows her around and puts her on camera... her words and her face are heard and seen around the world. There are too many who can be sucked in by her “charm” and her ideas are from the other side of the word, knowledge.
She is so dumb, they think she is cute. She isn’t cute, she is dangerous... to be used by those who see the possibility... and get their claws on “fundamentally changing the country” via her stupidity to actually say the things she says. believing them makes her one who has lost her mind or never had one.

Is AOC Hitler and Stalin combined and now Female

AOC is a test tube recreation from the fertile mind and crematorium-laboratory of Josef Mengele in which the sperm of Josef Goebbels was used to fertilize an egg from Hitler's beloved shepherd puppy, Blondi.

You can see Goebbel's influence in AOC's ideas and Blondi's in the way AOC tries to wag her tail when the crowd approves of the way she delivers them.

This woman is an idiot. Unfortunately, we as a nation are perfectly capable of electing her to Congress, and someday the White House.

Um, this country already elected an America hating idiot to the White House, twice, 7 years after 911. Set a pretty low bar there.....

"Why are we giving her such a platform as a lunatic?"

Ocasio-Cortez makes a perfect example why we have freedom of speech. It's the best way to destroy stupidity.

“This is one of the most urgent moral issues and crises that we have in America right now,”

She got that right.

“This is not a political issue. Children dying in detention centers should not be a partisan concern.”

Children dying on a 1,000 mile trek across desserts and mountains, or getting raped and enslaved, well, it doesn’t happen on TV so it’s not any concern in the world of AOC.
