Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez attacks ICE as a 'dangerous agency'
Posted on 03/02/2019 9:50:17 AM PST by ETL
The freshman Democrat, who has previously vowed to defund Immigrations and Customs Enforcement and see it abolished, made the comments in the wake of a party vote supporting a GOP amendment requiring “undocumented immigrants who try to buy guns be reported to ICE,” according to reports.
“I was upset that 26 Dems forced the other 200+ to vote for a pro-ICE provision at the last min without warning.
Because I think an agency that pins children down + forcibly injects them w/ antipsychotic drugs shouldn’t be given more power,” AOC’s first tweet read.
“What I DID say was that I had to go back to my district & share the MTR vote to explain why a pro-ICE amendment was slipped into a gun safety law.”
It was then that the New York rising star really turned up the heat on ICE, tweeting: “If you’re mad that I think people SHOULD KNOW when Dems vote to expand ICE powers, then be mad.
“ICE is a dangerous agency with 0 accountability, widespread reporting of rape, abuse of power, + children dying in DHS custody.
Having a D next to your name doesn’t make that right.”
She then took aim at colleagues in her own party, saying:
“Mind you, the same small splinter group of Dems that tried to deny Pelosi the speakership, fund the wall during the shutdown when the public didn’t want it, & are now voting in surprise ICE amendments to gun safety legislation are being called the “moderate wing” of the party.”
The comments came after Ocasio-Cortez made a speech against immigration laws and promised to abolish ICE.

She is the new face of Goeebels.
This girl is nuts. She has little grasp on reality. She’s in the lunatic fringe.
If these radicals take power, she could be a future president.
Someone needs to drop-kick this slut back to Puerto Rico.
So who’s holding her down when it’s time for her psychotropic injection?
The “hits” just keep on coming. Carry on, Comrade.
the Democratic saints of theft, envy and infanticide.
I bet that woman loves corn on the cob.
She’s the political equivalent of one of those LA car chases where the bad guy breaks every rule in the book, racking up charge after charge, and it’s all being put on tape by cameras.
I think she needs to be drug tested.
AOC plans:
-Making air transport illegal, building bridges to Europe and Hawaii
-Destroying and greenly re-building EVERY structure in the USA
-Doing away with concrete as a construction input
-Saving money for socialized medicine via fewer funerals
-Eliminating beef-eating pets
-Cross-breeding humans and rabbits so we could all be vegans
In the twilight’s last gleaming.
Her party is in charge - if she wants to abolish ICE she easily can muster the votes to abolish it and change the immigration laws.
It’s time for her to put up or to be tarred and feathered.
I will NOT stand for my country and its institutions to be raped and pillaged by these morons.
Her list in truth is about people who like her are just as crazy as she is.
She knows how to bait the hook.
