'Come for me…': Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez challenges Tom Homan after DOJ over deportations

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-NY, taunted Tom Homan on Friday after the border official threatened to report her to the Justice Department for guiding migrants about avoiding deportation. At a Queens town hall gathering, Ocasio-Cortez expressed her lack of concern regarding the immigration official's statements following her office's "Know your Rights" webinar in February. Homan indicated her actions could be unlawful and might obstruct Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from executing the Trump administration's deportation plans. "Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I'm using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections. To that I say: Come for me, do I look like I care?" Ocasio-Cortez told a cheering crowd. She stated there was "nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me."► Subscribe to The Economic Times for the latest video updates.
