Border czar Homan refers AOC to Justice after her office's advice to illegals on how to avoid ICE
The guide Ocasio-Cortez shared for migrants said that they do not have to open the door when agents come and they have the right to remain silent.
President Donald Trump's border czar, Tom Homan, says he referred New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, among the Democrat Party's most liberal members, to the Justice Department after her office's presentation that gave illegal migrants tips on how to avoid U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
"Is she crossing the line?" Homan asked aloud during a Fox News Channel interview Thursday evening. "So I'm working with the Department of Justice and finding out, where is that line that they crossed?
"So maybe AOC is going to be in trouble now, but I need the AOG to opine on that, because there's an impediment, it's impediment in my opinion, I'm not a prosecutor, but we need some further guidance on that."
Homan said he made the referral to the agency's deputy attorney general.
The comments follow Ocasio-Cortez's office on Wednesday hosting a webinar that was about migrants knowing their rights if ICE agents came to their door. While she did not attend the webinar, it did appear on her Facebook page, according to The New York Post.
"Believe it or not, in America EVERYONE has rights," Ocasio-Cortez wrote on the social media platform, X. "Citizen or not, we all should know our rights to protect ourselves and others from illegal search & seizure. ICE often attempts to enter homes without a proper warrant. They can go get one."
