Ocasio-Cortez: ICE ‘Does Not Deserve a Dime’

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) joined freshmen colleagues outside the Capitol on Thursday to call for an end to funding for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, accusing it of “repeatedly and systematically” violating human rights and pursuing a “radical agenda.”

Speaking two days after President Trump in his State of the Union vowed to “never abolish our heroes from ICE,” Ocasio-Cortez hit back, saying the president was asking for $5 billion “to continue to militarize and weaponize a force that has zero accountability.”

She went on to recall that, at a congressional hearing in December, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen had been unable to give the exact number of immigrant children who have died while in government custody – or as Ocasio-Cortez put it, “how many children are dying in her own care, under her own watch.”

“And they have the audacity to ask for more money to fund that? I don’t think so,” she continued.

Yes, she is still repeating this lie, as are many of her fellow Demadoodles elected this year. ICE didn’t have custody, Customs and Border Patrol did. Not too mention that the kids were dragged 2,000 miles, and doctors tried hard to help them.

“Not only will we not agree to fund that, but we’re to say that an agency like ICE, which repeatedly and systematically violates human rights, does not deserve a dime. They do not deserve a dime.”

“Until they can prove that they are honoring human rights, until they can make a good-faith effort to expand and embrace immigrants – the immigrants in this nation that have always been a part, and have always been a core element of American democracy. Until they can prove good faith to an American ideal they do not deserve any resources for their radical agenda.”

There’s a human right to come to the U.S. illegally? I suggest we house them all near AOC’s casa. Here’s where it gets hilarious, a quote that most articles have left out

Ocasio-Cortez, who wept as she lamented the impact of restrictionist immigration policy, stressed the importance of adherence to law to justify her opposition to migrant-detention facilities.

“We are a nation and land of laws. Not just some people are subject to laws and others are not,” she said. “When we are a land of laws, what that means, is that every person that steps foot on this soil deserves the consideration of due process. They deserve the protections. They deserve to have access to our Bill of Rights. That’s what makes this nation special.”

Do I need to explain what our laws actually say about people who are in the country illegally? But, hey, if she wants all subject to our laws, then we give a quick hearing and deport all illegals. Issue solved.

Last year, ICE removed a Nazi from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s district.

Her response: Abolish ICE.

This week, MS-13 murdered someone in her district.

Her response: Abolish ICE.

AOC's calls aren't just endangering her community, they're endangering the entire country.

Seriously, how soon till the more mainstream Democrats, you know, the Category 1 and 2 nuts, rather than Cat 5, try to isolate her and some of the other Cat 5’s, quiet them, destroy them? Because they are hurting the Dems. I sometimes wonder if she’s really a Republican, and is just going Cat 5 Dem to discredit them, she’s so over-the-top.
