DHS Ready To Slap Handcuffs On AOC If She Does Two Specific Things

Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin said Monday on Fox Business that an arrest would be “on the table” for Democrat New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez if she trespassed and then assaulted U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

Ocasio-Cortez posted a video to Instagram Sunday. That video advocated for the Democrat representatives involved in a scene at a New Jersey ICE facility. That incident led to the arrest of Democrat Newark Mayor Ras Baraka. Fox Business co-host David Asman, discussing the pushback from Democrats on “The Bottom Line,” asked McLaughlin if an arrest would be imminent if Ocasio-Cortez went to the facility and pulled “the same kind of stunt.”

“If she trespasses and if she assaults law enforcement officers, as we saw earlier, I think that’s certainly on the table. As far as we’ve heard, a lot of Democrats make the argument that they’re just conducting oversight, congressional oversight,” McLaughlin said.

Chaos erupted Friday at the Delaney Hall facility. Baraka and Democrat New Jersey Reps. Rob Menendez Jr., Bonnie Watson Coleman and LaMonica McIver were present. According to Fox News, DHS said the lawmakers and Baraka were held up with protestors at the facility’s first checkpoint when they tried to “storm” through the gates once the gates opened for a detention bus.
