Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez self-hyped her effort to block a Senate-approved bill that would step up security protections for Supreme Court justices and their immediate family members Thursday — a day after an armed man was arrested for attempting to murder Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
The Bronx Democrat posted a video on her Instagram feed of her running up the steps to the Capitol so she could be present on the House floor to stop a unanimous consent request by House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) to move the measure.
In a subsequent video, the “Squad” member claimed McCarthy was trying to push the legislation through the House on a so-called “fly-out day,” when members leave Washington to return to their home districts.
AOC told her followers that she would oppose the unanimous consent request until the Senate advances gun control measures after a spate of mass shootings in the US, including the May 24 Uvalde, Texas elementary school massacre.
“Oh, so we can pass protections for us and here easily, right? But we can’t pass protections for everyday people? I think not,” she said. “I’m going to need a roll call vote on that.”
House Democrats, who say they want to expand the bill to include enhanced security for Supreme Court clerks and other employees, rejected the unanimous consent request, sending McCarthy into a rage on the House floor.
“How many times do they have to be threatened?” he asked, referring to the justices. “How many people have to be arrested with a gun outside their home?”

We once had very good protection for everyday people *AAOC, the police. But you and the rest of your Marxist party destroyed that.
*not a typo. The first A is for A**h**e.
Did Dingbat Woman say something? 🤪
Whore
Friggin’ Caucasian hating PR bimbo. She thinks she owns this friggin’ country. She needs her ass deported.
She wants them dead.
The defund the police crowd now saying this?
They would like for an assassin to give Biden another USSC appointment Meantime SPLC ran a poll to show that huge numbers of young folks believe that it would be a good thing to assassinate someone they regard as harming their democracy. I believe they are promoting someone to pull a Ramos on a USSC justice and family. Schumer’s rhetoric in 20020 was easily heard as a threat on the lies of Kavanaugh and Gorsuch. Things are going to get serious shortly.
Who’s she trying to fool? Only her constituents would be dumb enough to believe that she enters the House of Representatives from the front steps of the Capitol building.
In terms of more good people dying and suffering, and the patriots in this country sitting by and letting it happen? Absolutely.
She needs to be drug tested
She needs a human sized garbage disposal.
It is illegal to protest in front the the justices’ homes. Why is that not being enforced?
The socio-fascists want to kill one conservative justice to change/flip the vote on abortion.
They are that evil.
Don’t send her to PR. Send her to haiti. She can whore all she wants and I am sure there are many voodoo rituals that can end a pregnancy
Well, like it or not, the protection of a President, a Supreme Court Justice, even a Member of Congress, should be a priority and providing it does not take away anything from us hoi polloi. If a man had shown up with a gun at Justice Sotomayor's house, I am sure Red Sandy would be screaming that the Justice had almost died and demand that Congress stay in session over the weekend, and maybe all night, to provide more protection.
The Dems are going nuts because their little plan to vacate a SCOTUS seat was an epic fail.
Don’t insult whores. She is an evil person.
If I lived closer to DC, I’d be in front of Sotomayor’s home 24/7. Same with Pelosi, AOC and the rest of the “Squad.” Give em a taste of their own medicine and watch them spring into action.
The vast, empty space between cortez’s ears.
