Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) defiantly responded to White House border czar Tom Homan, who questioned whether her informing constituents of their rights was impeding deportation efforts. Homan reportedly threatened to refer Ocasio-Cortez to the Justice Department for her "Know Your Rights with ICE" webinar. Ocasio-Cortez challenged Homan to pursue legal action, emphasizing the importance of exercising constitutional rights. This follows similar controversies involving Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers, who faced Homan's threats after providing guidance to state employees on interactions with immigration agents.
