AOC on Susan Collins touting the money she got for body cameras and ICE training in the DHS bill. “Senator Collins wrote the blank check to allow these officers to conduct themselves in the way that they have in Maine in the first place, and she's the one who's poured resources into it.”

Not only that, AOC is the FIRST cosponsor of Underwood’s legislation. (Underwood is a workhorse). I asked AOC about this (and credit to Winter for flagging it). She said it is why she supports Medicare for All: “And for people who say that single-payer systems could not cover fertility treatments, France, you know, has already started to do that for young women.” “But in the immediate term, there's a lot that can be done. Insurance companies often do not treat women as full people in terms of what they choose to cover, whether it is fertility treatments, whether it's egg freezing, IVF, to menopause.”

AOC on her amendment to withhold offensive and defensive weapons to Israel: “I think this is where, frankly, the American people are at. I think after witnessing US-funded weapons help perpetuate genocide of Palestinians. I think that people want to see more accountability into where public taxpayer dollars are going.”

👀👀👀 AOC on a poll showing her leading in a 2028 primary in New Hampshire: "One is that you know polls are polls, and a horse race is a horse race. I am, of course, I think very deeply humbled and grateful to you know folks who participate and convey that confidence." "I think my main focus is really genuinely just the midterms right now, and we have to make sure that we win this majority."

AOC on Graham Platner becoming the Democratic nominee in Maine: "I, of course, am deeply supportive of a Democratic majority, and we're going to do what we can to secure that, and the people of Maine have made their decision, and we'll move forward." #MESen

AOC on Trump reversing course on halting ICE from doing traffic stops. “This is the guy that said he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue, and people would still support him. And now he has an agency shooting people out in the street. And at this point, it's practically a campaign promise from this guy.”

AOC collaborated with Lindsey Graham on the DEFIANCE Act, which would allow victims of nonconsensual deepfake AI porn to file civil suits. Paris Hilton endorsed it. It passed through unanimous consent in the Senate, but it has stalled in the House. “Senator Graham, Senator Hawley as well were instrumental in securing bipartisan support for this legislation to protect kids, women, everyone from non-consensual AI-developed porn, and it passed the Senate unanimously. Every single Republican voted for it, and so when it comes to the House, I think we just got to ask Jim Jordan.”

Sarah McBride on her message to trans youth: "You matter and you're not alone, and there are a lot of people, not just here, but around the country who see you, who love you, and who are fighting every single day to make sure that all of us are treated with dignity and respect."

Lauren Boebert on Trump wanting a primary challenge against her and beating Massie: “Well, I can’t be primaried. My primary is locked in, so I support the president and we're moving forward. So, I stood by the president, I stand by my friend, and I got, I got work to do.”

Marina Lacerda, an Epstein survivor, pushes back on Todd Blanche saying that he has met with survivors’ lawyers: “That is absolutely not true. He has not met with any of us. And today he was asked if he was going and was willing to meet with us, and he said it was illegal for him to meet with us without legal counsel. Which I find it obnoxious.”

AOC on Republicans trying to make the new socialists the face of the Democratic Party ahead of the 2026 “It doesn't work, so I think that they can try, they can put as much energy as they like into that. I think that the year I won, we also picked up 40 Democratic seats in the house, and that included in a large terrain of swing districts, and so if they want to pursue an unsuccessful strategy, I welcome them to doing…”
