Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez came to the defense of lawmakers this week by warning Trump administration officials they could soon be having "a problem" with her.

Ocasio-Cortez took to Instagram after the Department of Homeland Security suggested they may pursue arrests of three Democratic lawmakers who partook in a protest outside of an ICE facility in Newark, New Jersey. Reps. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ), Rob Menendez (D-NJ) and LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) all attended the protest.

      Few medical specialists can effectively monitor these kinds of cases; the girl’s U.S. doctors are among those with the necessary expertise. The girl needs scans and checkups every three months, her doctors told the Texas Civil Rights Project.

      The surgery that saved the girl’s life last year left her with some lasting side effects. The swelling on her brain is still not fully gone, her mother said in March, causing difficulties with speech and mobility of the right side of her body.

      Before the family was removed from the U.S., the girl was routinely checking in with doctors monitoring her recovery, attending rehabilitation therapy sessions and taking medication to prevent convulsions.

      Did you even read the article you shared?

        No you claimed they were deporting American citizens. That was your claim and that claim is untrue.

          Hey broseph - looks like we are struggling with some reading comprehension here - care to look at the title of the article you just shared? I’ll add italics for emphasis to help you find the key words.

          Deported family of U.S. citizen girl recovering from rare brain tumor is determined to return

          Hey, let’s take a look at the second paragraph too:

          She’s one of four U.S. citizen children who were sent to Mexico from Texas three months ago when immigration authorities deported their undocumented parents.

          So it appears that either you are illiterate, or lying, based on the source that you shared.

            The internet is so overrated. Yes the children were sent with the parents, AT THE PARENTS REQUEST, back to the parents home country. AT THE PARENTS REQUEST. If you read the whole article the parents were presented with 3 choices: 1. Leave the children with a relative 2. Leave the children who would go “into the system” 3. Take them with you. Bruh.

              That’s literally not what the article says.

              Please keep demonstrating your cognitive dissonance - this is a fascinating case study. You’ve repeatedly made incorrect claims, switched back and force between them, and provided my evidence.

              Feel free to waste your time gargling the cum of stinky Mussolini though.

                Idk what all these gay innuendos have to do with this? Just read the article. The parents talk about having to decide if they are going to take the children with them. Just read the article.

                  “The narrative that DHS is deporting American children is false and irresponsible reporting,” adding that immigration authorities ask mothers if they wish to be removed with their children or if they want the children to be placed in the safe custody of someone the parent designates.

                  I went and pulled words out for you since you cant read the whole 2min article little buddy.

                    I imagine you are very young and I’ll assume you are in America. As a really young person how do you see America? Do you think there is still opportunity available for you? Do you have a plan or goals? Have thought about and a plan to achieve them?
