Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Donald Trump caused riots and chaos, he must be held accountable

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, in an interview with Fox News Digital, blamed President Donald Trump for the riots and chaos in Los Angeles. Cortez claimed that Donald Trump and Stephen Miller are taking measured action intended to cause chaos and unrest throughout the United States. Cortez argued that it didn’t make sense to punish people, who are not in charge of the country, for the rioters’ actions.

From Fox News:

Ocasio-Cortez, who is seen as a leading figure in the Democratic Party and a possible 2028 presidential candidate, told Fox News Digital the Trump administration needs to be held accountable for what she described as intentionally stoking unrest leading to the Los Angeles riots.

“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,” she said.

“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,” she said. “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.”

She went on to say that it “doesn’t make any sense” to punish those who are not in charge of the country for the rioters’ actions.

“I don’t know where this whole thing comes from, 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,” she said. “We need to hold the leaders [accountable] who are making this chaos and creating this chaos.”

Earlier this week, Ocasio-Cortez attempted to downplay the rioting in Los Angeles, saying on the social media platform Bluesky that Democrats do not need to “answer for every teen who throws a rock” and that her party was falling into a Republican trap by trying to explain why parts of the city had gone up in flames.

  1. Oh God please let it be true. Let her be the Democratic Party candidate and put a stake dead through the heart of the Democratic Party forever.

  2. Lets go straight to Executive Terminal as she deplanes a Gulfstream G5 sipping Champagne…

  3. If Occasional-Cortex tries to spar with Vance, it’s going to be a bloodbath. Please, PLEASE, let her run against Vance in ’28.

    In other news, a former Marine and mayor of Huntington Park is busy trying to plea with the Guard and Marines in LA to, you know, not interfere with the “peaceful protests.” My thoughts on this aren’t fit for print, beyond, “foreign and domestic.” Stop crapping on my beloved Corps, douche.

    1. Since all they are doing is stopping them from burning down buildings and killing federal agents I guess he picked a side.

  4. I was in the NYANG from 1975 and 1977 and in 1976 we had the 2 hundreth year of the US. I forgot to mention this when we were talking about the NG being called in to Kalifornia and last night the noodle kicked in and I remember riding in deuce and 1/2;s out to an area in Suffolk County NY State and went through drills using another armory east of us playing demonstrators with some having there families in the demostration. b 4 going out there, we practiced indoors and I remember the V formation we used for going into crowds. I f I vagualy remember, we had issue helmets, batons and I think we had shields. This training was done because the state was worried about demonstrations being held so maybe the state may have gotten some info about demonstrations but it was a long time ago so some stuff I remember and some stuff I can’t remember. Ok, I could say speaking about remember, I could have added in “Remember When” by Norman Fox and his Rob Roys out of the Bronx street corners. Holy moly I just added it in. Sorry about that.

    1. I forgot to add that we may have had a truck out there that sent out heat waves to the demonstraters as to warm up there bods to disperse them. I guess that the idea went south do to law suits from injuries. Anyone out there remember those gadgets plus noise machines aimed at demostraters.

      1. Did it send out “Heat waves” or did it warm up your insides like a Microwave?
        The HMMWV mounted Vehicle Mounted Active Denial System (V-MADS) has been around for a very long time. It initially makes your skin tingle/ich, if you try to stay it “warms” your belly!

        1. I don’t remember MIRanger, long time ago. I see that it isn’t used at these peacfull riots/arson events. When I was working for Brink’s, we had to be nys qualified to carry a firearm and deadly force could be used on a person just before an Arsonist could throw a molotave cocktail into a building I had all the deadly force nys acronyms that you could this force on. I guess the Kalifornia penal code doesn’t use escalation of force and the A-Hole gov wants LEO’s to sit around a campfire and sing Sara Sponda Sara Sponda with the soros paid riotors. Check it out on you tube. Brought back 1950’s memories. I threw all the training info on the penal code when I retired back in 2007 and made my way down to the Gun Shine State.
          PS, If you had M-1 in front of your name/handle, my thumb would turn fire engine and it would be crying,, being a member of the M-1 Thumb Brotherhood.. Later Alligator….

    2. “….remember the V formation we used….”
      Forward “V”? Or inverted “V”?
      I think I first learned about the inverted “V” from a History Channel program on ancient Roman crown control tactics. Tends to bunch the protestors close together to where they can’t move or strike effectively, and the soldiers CAN move and strike effectively.

          1. I just appropriate ’em, rgr769, not generate ’em. Thought that counts, right pic or not. 😀

            1. Now there was an Army 1LT in the chain of command of some Marines in combat. It happened in 1859 at Harper’s Ferry, VA. That US Army 1LT was J.E.B. Stuart, and he and a company of U.S. Marines were battling the infamous John Brown and his for real insurgents. The soon to be great Col. Robert E. Lee was in overall command of the troops that defeated and captured Brown. But the only nose rings in those days were worn by the bovine species. Although, one could say that many of the females wearing them at the riots aka “peaceful protests” nowadays definitely display bovine characteristics.

              1. Yep…and “Beauty” Stuart was more of a beauty than the skankapotumouses that we’ll see “protesting”. And “Beauty’s” Marines ended up hanging the insurgents they captured. Hey…there’s our precedence for dealing with these idjits!

                1. Naw, they got some of that “due process,” and then they were hanged. Even Brown himself got a trial. Not that there was any doubt that it was a real insurgency where innocent civilians were killed by Brown’s insurgents. There is an excellent article on Wiki that details the entire series of events.

          2. Hack stone was attending a Knights of Columbo meeting last month when that “one guy” mentioned the passing of his brother-in-law, who was a “Marine Green Beret”. The only Green Beret that Hack Stone was familiar was Frank Stallone’s character in the cinematic masterpiece Terror In Beverly Hills. Can’t recall the name of his character in that film. Anyone have access to the internet and provide Hack Stone the answer?

            1. Do you all wear trench coats and carry around stogies while having a finger on your head at the Columbo meetings?

          3. Is this a 1LT that hasn’t gotten lost, or a 1LT that hasn’t gotten lost… yet?

            1. I resent that comment. I was a 1LT rifle company commander for the first two months I was in the Viet of the Nam, and I never got lost. Ditto for my platoon leader days in the 509th in Germany. Of course, by the time I got to Vietnam I had already been doing land nav for over five years. By the time I left Vietnam, I could navigate on foot, from a vehicle, or in an aircraft, day or night.

      1. If I remember, we used the forward V to act as a wedge to go through the crowd and I think that we may have used the inverted V also or it may have been mentioned but I realy don’t remember.

      1. A horse is a horse of course of course but who ever heard of a talking horse. Ok, I’ll stop horsing around before you Gals and guys rein me in.Lator Alligator.

    1. Whatever you do, don’t look at the tongue on the horse too closely. Unless you are a Marine and then just show respect.

      1. I’m 100% fluent in Infantry and proficient in Marine. He’s saying “we’re only dispensing hugs. Our intent it to hold hands and skip”.

        It’s not a perfect translation as I can’t tell where the ball-tugs and spitting is located.

          1. I always look at this picture and for some reason see the kid with his face being palmed and feet being dragged while holding his hands up…is it just me?!!!

    1. An Lance Criminals ain’t got nothin’ in terms of being pissed off at the world as compared to Privates an PFCs, goddamnit.

  5. On another thread, I talked about how these movements were hijacked… Larry Klayman reportedly predicted the back-and-forth that would be occurring in the courts, like the injunctions, and he also reportedly predicted that there would be riots by the left. He’s calling this a Bolshevik-style revolution:

    ” We knew this was coming. This is more than an insurrection, this is a Bolshevik style revolution. It’s not just Bolsheviks, but it’s every conceivable leftist radical group. This is financed, undoubtedly, by people like George Soros. . .. Karen Bass is a DEI affirmative action mayor in Los Angeles. She was going to be Biden’s second choice to be vice president, God forbid. . .. They are using her. The Left is using her, and they are using Newsom and others. They want there to be some kind of tragedy in LA. They want there to be some kind of Kent State where someone gets killed. They want one of these protesters to be killed by the National Guard or by the military. This will be a flash point to carry forth this Bolshevik revolution. They want to take this county down to ground zero. This is what they are trying to do. They want to destabilize the country and bring these radicals out.”

    1. The presence of Marxists/socialists in these protests/riots is not about “seeking justice and fairness”. They actually want to overthrow the capitalistic system. This falls under the same overall “fundamentally change the country” strategy being pushed by the left. What happened on January 6, 2021, was not an interaction. However, what these Marxist rioters are doing is an actual interaction.

      The fact that Commissar is associated with one of these groups does not surprise those who comment on the site:

    2. THOSE DUMB SHITS have no idea whatsoever about what will happen to them as soon as they start fooling around with people in Red State America who want to be left alone, especially rural folks!

  6. Oh, for the love of everything clean, clear and sacred to Almighty God…just how fucking stupid do you think we are
    Anhydrous Oxymoron Compound?
    You have to be more dense than Osmium!
    Holy SHIT!
    Do you actually think that any of us folks out here in “FLY OVER LAND” believe anything you have to say? If so then you are even dumber then we had originally thought, and maybe we might be just a little bit dumber than it takes to see just how much of a douche canoe you happen to be, you fuck stick!

  7. And in today’s news, this just in: Stores cause looting by their very existence.

    1. Someone should inform this person that the so called “raid” was not an ICE raid. The event that triggered the LA riots was a targeted service of a federal judge issued search warrant for a business in the LA area that was engaged in smuggling foreign goods without paying taxes and duties, federal tax fraud, and money laundering. It was carried out by the FBI, IRS, Federal Marshals, DEA, and HSI agents. There were ICE agents there because the business was reputed to be operated by some workers who were subject to ICE deportation orders and had criminal backgrounds. Dr. Phil witnessed it with his crew. During the operation, someone sent to observe it called on her phone to a leader of the “protesters” who subsequently showed up and attacked the officers. Huerta, the leader of SEIU, a commie union for state employees, showed up and got himself arrested. That was the triggering event.

      1. Whoa, whoa, whoa. No facts allowed, comrade, just whatever our handlers tell us. /s

        FAFO has occurred, again. Turns out there’s consequences to choosing sides, or not choosing sides.

          1. The demonrats aren’t even trying to hide the fact that they prioritize criminals over law abiding citizens.. and the fact that the Sheriff calls out their group think is awesome!

    2. He’s the one who jeopardized his family’s safety. I have less than zero sympathy considering what he was trying to do.

    3. I wonder if he would have showed up for funerals of dead law enforcement officers if they had been ambushed in the raid?
