Whether they can or they can’t, it shows her thuggish, unlawful mindset.

The who is Donald Trump Jr.
He insinuated (in “meme” form) socialism leads to populations starving; she threatened abusive legal action if he continued.

To wit: she threatened, in the form of abusing her position, the President’s son for engaging in political speech.

Ocasio-Cortez is threatening to use her power as a federal lawmaker to punish someone who exercised his first amendment right to free speech.

NO SHE'S NOT! BECAUSE SHE'S NOT A FEDERAL LAWMAKER.

This 'article' is a waste of FReeper's time.

No, but many have had ethics complaints brought against them and have resigned.

Typically from a jail cell or on their way to it.

But a Member of the House of Representatives has never been impeached.

And only 1 Senator back in Jeffersonian times that was ignored by the Senate.

Not yet. But her threat directly indicated the action would take place after she was in power.

The bug eyed space cadet is dumb as a box of rocks. You can’t fix stupid but it seems you can elect it to congress.

Apparently in NYC when you're too stupid to sling drinks you can always run for congress. I guess the beauty school class was all filled up.

She simply believes a lot of things that are false. She has very little experience with reality. She has been fed the same lies most of her life.

The sad part...and really scary part, is that there are millions in this country who think like she does.

When someone asked her, “How stupid can you be?” she obviously looked upon it as a challenge.

Thank you for posting this. That was one of my first thoughts when I saw headline.
Using one’s office to threaten and/or intimidate a citizen is a Federal Crime.

Ocasio-Cortez: would-be dictator.

She thinks that subpoena power is equivalent to having dictator-like powers, like in Venezuela or Cuba.

Somebody like her should be charged with abuse of power, even before she gets “inaugurated”.
