Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Saturday refused to condemn Black Lives Matter protesters who demanded white folks “give up their homes,” instead saying there is a need to “establish just policies and address the core issues of brutality in order for us to come together.”
The Democratic socialist made her remarks Saturday during a stop at the Woodside Houses, a NYCHA housing complex in Queens, where she greeted residents and spoke to locals and reporters.
“Since this is happening in Seattle, I don’t have as close of a view on what’s happening. Of course I represent New York’s 14th Congressional District, so I don’t know the details of the protests that are going on, but I think what’s really important is that we make sure people are safe and it’s important for us to enact legislation and policy that actually addresses the core reasons behind why all of this kind of disruption is happening,” AOC said, adding, “until we do that, this is going to keep occurring, whether we want it to or not.”
She said her message is that it’s “extremely important that we establish just policies and address the core issues of brutality in order for us to come together.”
AOC said she “needed to have more context” regarding the issue of Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan being recalled in order to comment.
The firebrand progressive also fought off talk of a potential run for president.

AOC Peter Principled out at bartending. She should go back to cocktail waitressing — it’s what presents the best challenge for her limited brain function.
She’s obviously part of the faction that wants the “disruption” to “keep occurrimg.”
Lies.
She and the radicals now running the DNC know exactly what is going on as they helped organize it.
I hate agreeing with AOC, but this IS a local issue.
I can assure you that if they went out to Redmond and started busting up Microsoft, this crap would end soon.
A coordinated attack in major democrat cities around the country is ‘local” - not in my book.
Silence says a lot. Willful ignorance.
This kid getting shot had nothing to do with the riots. Trying to link the two is really disingenuous.
bump
She is the spawn of communist classrooms. There are millions just like her in America.
Who is this "Us" of which she speaks?
This isn't going to help me "come together" with racist, freeloading thugs.
