In a shocking video, AOC used her political platform to call for her fellow Democrats to disrupt ICE’s work of detaining illegal immigrants, all the while staunchly defending members of Congress who broke the law by entering an ICE detention center without permission, leading conservatives to call for AOC’s arrest online.
For context, in a now-viral video shared on May 11, 2025, AOC spoke out in defense of several fellow members of Congress after they came under scrutiny for reportedly trespassing at an ICE detention center in New Jersey alongside a New Jersey Mayor on May 9, 2025. Furthermore, AOC asserted that the Department of Homeland Security was reacting defensively to the illegal actions of the trespassing representatives and made direct threats addressed to border czar Tom Homan and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem.
In the clip, AOC argued that the Department of Homeland Security was using “public intimidation,” saying that she believed DHS had resorted to this tactic “because they know that they cannot come for us all.” She added, “They know that they are not, that they cannot come for us all. And recently, what they said is that DHS is allegedly looking into arresting members of Congress who were showing up for their legal and constitutional obligation to conduct oversight. If anyone’s breaking the law in this situation, it’s not members of Congress, it’s the Department of Homeland Security.”
Continuing, AOC pointed the finger directly at President Trump’s border czar and DHS secretary, saying, “It’s people like Tom Homan and Secretary Christy Noem, you lay a finger on someone, on Representative Bonnie Watson Coleman on representative, or any of the representatives that were there, you lay a finger on them, we’re going to have a problem.”
Carrying on with her rant, AOC asserted that DHS could not arrest members of Congress “because the people who are breaking the law are the people who are not abiding by it, and it is enshrined in the law that members of Congress who show up to ICE and CBP facilities are required to be granted access, legally required to be granted access, and they legally cannot be inhibited from accessing these facilities to conduct their constitutional obligation to to investigate and conduct oversight.”
Concluding her statements, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez threatened Secretary Noem again, saying, “If Christy Noem wants to break the law, that’s on her.” She added, “But it sure as hell is not someone like Representative Robert Menendez that needs to be arrested. Okay?” In response, conservative author John Strand shot back on X, saying, “WOW: AOC is urging Democrats to break into ICE detention centers, claiming it is their ‘legal & constitutional right’ and that DHS can’t ‘come for us all.'”
In addition, Strand argued that AOC is “inciting crime” and called for fellow conservatives to push for the representative’s arrest, saying, “If you’re totally fed up with this lawlessness, ReTweet this: ARREST AOC!” In response, commenters expressed their frustration with the woke representative, with the user Jeffrey Tipton writing, “Arrest AOC now for inciting lawbreaking and violence.” Another user chimed in, “She is a coward, talks a lot of crap, but won’t cross the line that would damage her politically.

BTTT
Too bad we don’t use stocks anymore. She needs a few days in one, then back to the bar to fill drink orders and peddle her other wares.
How is this not worse than what most of the J6’ers did?
One J6’er wasn’t even in Washington that day and went to prison.........for ‘incitement’ on the internet!.................
” and it is enshrined in the law that members of Congress who show up to ICE and CBP facilities are required to be granted access, legally required to be granted access, and they legally cannot be inhibited from accessing these facilities “
If any member of Congress tries to break into my house I’m going to inhibit them. These “members of Congress” were also accompanied by an unruly angry mob - it’s the January 6th of the Left, except Jan 6th didn’t have any politicians in the crowd.
Sedition is the illegal act of inciting people to resist or rebel against the government in power. Sedition is the rebellious talk and encouragement that might lead to a mutiny, and can be charged as a crime, like treason.
AOC is committing sedition.
The Constitution allows for expulsion from Congress.
That clause should be exercised.
it is enshrined in the law that members of Congress who show up to ICE and CBP facilities are required to be granted access, legally required to be granted access, and they legally cannot be inhibited from accessing these facilities to conduct their constitutional obligation to to investigate and conduct oversight.”

does aoc have a code citation?
i would also like to see the code citation that says congress members can ignore lawful commands by law enforcement officers and assault law enforcement officers
Lock her up.
AOC wants to be a jailed martyr so she can get the Democrat nomination for President in 2028.
She can then claim she is the only candidate who had real skin in the game.
We need to give her what she wants..prison and the nomination!
Yes. What supposed law is she talking about!
It’s all empty rhetoric.
I did not, though, hear a call for violence.
Cortez just a third rate demo dame jacking her jaws for her fellow comrades to get some air time because they have nothing of worth to say that needs to be reported.
I didn’t know mayors were members of congress. I also doubt the accuracy of her claim. Congresscritters were not allowed to visit J6ers.
EC
Don’t arrest her. Keep calling her out and let her implode on herself.
WAIT! You mean to tell me that breaking into a federal facility isn’t insurrection?
Lock the bitch up with an ms-13 gangbanger or two. She’ll change her tune. Dumber than a bag of rocks.
Apparently she forgot this part......
Facility Entry Requirements:
• Members of Congress: ICE will comply with the law and accommodate Members seeking to
visit/tour an ICE detention facility for the purpose of conducting oversight.
• Congressional staff: ICE requires at least 24-hours advance notice of an upcoming visit by
Congressional staff. Failure to meet this requirement will result in denied access to the
facility.

Just take away her armed security and see if she cahnges her story:
“AOC, ‘squad’ spent $1.2M in campaign cash on private security despite calls to defund the police”
Maybe she could try dodging a bullet, like Trump did. How hard could it be?
