Ocasio-Cortez fires back at Trump Jr: Keep trolling, we have subpoena power next year

BY ARIS FOLLEY - 12/07/18 02:16 PM EST

   
Democratic Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) fired back at Donald Trump Jr. on Friday after the president’s eldest son shared a meme implying that her democratic socialist views would lead to Americans eating dogs.

“I have noticed that Junior here has a habit of posting nonsense about me whenever the Mueller investigation heats up,” Ocasio-Cortez said on Twitter. “Please, keep it coming Jr — it’s definitely a ‘very, very large brain’ idea to troll a member of a body that will have subpoena power in a month.”

“Have fun!” she added.

Sounds like a threat against Jr.   Highly unethical.

This bug-eyed space cadet  is in for a rude awaking this Jan.

What should a serious Congresscritter do when they don't like an internet meme? Why threaten to abuse subpoena power once in office, of course.
Amazingly she got 61K likes on twitter for her threat to abuse power. Keep it up, A O-C, keep it up.

   nancy has a solid history of muffling the miscreants in her party.  All statements from this lightweight will be only authorized crap.

Looks like she violated the House ethics rules with her threat.

I hope you are right...but a lot of people just love free (as they perceive in their minds) stuff. I'm afraid that this ideology will spread.

Sure she violated ethics. House ethics and ethics in general. Ethics, she don't need no stinkin' ethics.

I’ve told this story before: Hubby is a professional firefighter and had a call one night for an electrical fire. The origin was the bedroom, right behind the bed. Guess what was plugged in  :rolling:
