Far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) is urging civil disobedience against Donald Trump’s slew of executive orders.
Since taking office on Monday, Trump has signed a slew of executive orders targeting everything from immigration and the border all the way through to ending DEI and dismantling the deep state.
In one of her regular live stream videos in which she lays out the roadmap to a socialist America, the New York Congresswoman urged people to simply ignore or disobey executive orders signed by the president.
She explained:
One of the most simple things that we can do is just not comply. This today, the Trump administration, and also last night, the Trump administration signed a bunch of illegal executive orders.
For example, Donald Trump tried to sign an executive order to end birthright citizenship in this country, which is part of the Constitution.
It is, day one, already trying to shred the foundational documents of American society and try to end birthright citizenship, which basically, as we know, if you are born in the United States, you are a United States citizen.
That remains. That is the law. That is the Constitution
And he just tried to sign a piece of paper trying to say, no, we don’t have to listen to him. It’s illegal. We don’t have to treat this seriously. It’s a joke.
And that’s not to say that what they’re trying to do isn’t serious. It is serious. But we should not consent in advance.
