US Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (Democrat, New York) isn’t fazed by Congress’ failure to move forward with the impeachment of Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth.
From her perspective, Democrats have almost too many people to investigate once they gain control of Congress in January.
“There are so many criminals in this administration, it’s hard to figure out who should be, you know, the order of operations,” Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview with CNN’s Manu Raju on Tuesday.
“There are going to be many, many, many investigations,” she added. “I imagine many subpoenas, and we have to follow wherever the evidence takes us.”
It lets her constituents and supporters know that she understands and shares their position. That’s the whole purpose of having a representative in the first place. They are supposed to say things on your behalf, and not only when it benefits them personally. In fact, I would argue that you can’t be a good representative if you aren’t willing to do that when it doesn’t personally benefit you.
