US Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (Democrat, New York) isnāt fazed by Congressā 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.
āThere are so many criminals in this administration, itās hard to figure out who should be, you know, the order of operations,ā Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview with CNNās Manu Raju on Tuesday.
āThere are going to be many, many, many investigations,ā she added. āI imagine many subpoenas, and we have to follow wherever the evidence takes us.ā
It lets her constituents and supporters know that she understands and shares their position. Thatās 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 canāt be a good representative if you arenāt willing to do that when it doesnāt personally benefit you.
