Far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) attacked President Trump this week for “creating this chaos” in Los Angeles, saying, “The Trump administration owns this.”
It’s not the Democrats, who call ICE agents “secret police,” compare them to neo-Nazis, and incite their followers to attack law enforcement, that stoked chaos, but Donald Trump for directing the Department of Homeland Security to execute federal law, according to the far-left Squad member.
Last month, AOC accused Department of Homeland Security agents of “breaking the law” and committing treason after Democrat New Jersey Reps. LaMonica McIver, Bonnie Watson Coleman, and Rob Menendez came under scrutiny for bumrushing an ICE facility in Newark, New Jersey.
“You lay a finger on someone, on representative Bonnie Watson Coleman, or any of the representatives that were there, you lay a finger on them, we’re going to have a problem,” she threatened federal authorities.

And sure enough, McIver was charged by a grand jury shortly after, and leftists are now rioting against ICE in the streets alongside illegal aliens in the sanctuary city of Los Angeles and across the nation.
AOC further claimed, “This administration is intentionally creating chaos, and then somehow it’s the people who aren’t in charge that have to answer for it,” ostensibly in reference to the very people in charge of LA’s streets, Mayor Karen Bass and California Governor Gavin Newsom.
The situation in LA was so bad under Bass and Newsom’s watch that Trump had to federalize the National Guard and send Marines to control the chaos. Still, Newsom and Bass also blame Trump for the uprising in their state.

Reporter: There’s some damage to the federal property. There’s throwing objects at federal agents. What’s your message for those who are resorting to violence amid those protests?
Ocasio-Cortez: I think that everyone is seeing all of this chaos unfold in Los Angeles, and we really need to have accountability for the administration that has decided to intentionally uncork this chaos. The Trump administration owns this.
The Trump administration, Donald Trump, and Stephen Miller know that when you violently raid elementary schools, Home Depots, and start ripping kids out of people’s arms, that it’s going to create and stoke social chaos.
And so we need to hold the leaders who are making this chaos and creating this chaos— Donald Trump knowingly is doing this. He is knowingly provoking chaos. And at the end of the day, he has to answer for everything that has happened, his decisions, his aggression, his his ability to intentionally stoke this that is the problem.
And I don’t know where this whole thing comes from, where, like, where, where this administration is intentionally creating chaos, and then somehow it’s the people who aren’t in charge that have to answer for it. Doesn’t make any sense.
