Summary
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez criticized Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, after he suggested her “Know Your Rights with ICE” webinar could be illegal.
The event informed immigrants about their rights during ICE raids. Homan claimed the webinar might impede immigration enforcement and said he was working with the DOJ to determine legal action.
AOC dismissed his remarks, stating, “Maybe he can learn to read. The Constitution would be a good place to start.”
She continues to oppose Trump’s immigration policies, including efforts to revoke birthright citizenship.
He wasn’t in command of ICE under Obama. He was just commended for being a good employee under Obama. Trump made him a “border czar” (whatever the fuck that means). He apparently chaffed under the Obama administration’s more lax policies when it came to border security and is much happier under Trump. Clearly to the detriment of everyone who isn’t white.
