Incoming Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez directly threatened Donald Trump Jr. with “subpoena power” on social media Friday; saying “keep it coming” after he posted a scathing critique online.
The future legislator warned the president’s son on Twitter Friday afternoon, posting “I have noticed that Junior here has a habit of posting nonsense about me whenever the Mueller investigation heats up. Please, keep it coming Jr – it’s definitely a ‘very, very large brain’ idea to troll a member of a body that will have subpoena power in a month. Have fun!” she tweeted.

The self-described Democratic Socialist found herself in hot-water in recent days; comparing the ‘migrant caravan’ on the US-Mexico border with “Jewish families” who fled Europe in World War II.
CORTEZ CONFUSION: Ocasio-Cortez Compares ‘Migrant Caravan’ with ‘Jewish Families Fleeing Germany’
Incoming Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez raised eyebrows throughout the nation’s capital over the weekend; directly comparing the ‘migrant caravan’ with “Jewish families fleeing Germany” during World War II.
Cortez posted her surprising statement on social media Sunday just hours after dozens of immigrants rushed the US-Mexico border, writing “Asking to be considered a refugee & applying for status isn’t a crime. It wasn’t for Jewish families fleeing Germany. It wasn’t for targeted families fleeing Rwanda. It wasn’t for communities fleeing war-torn Syria. And it isn’t for those fleeing violence in Central America.”
