NEW YORK (AP) — New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said she and other elected officials “narrowly escaped death” last week when a mob of President Donald Trump’s supporters stormed into the U.S. Capitol, noting that she had additional concerns her own colleagues would put her at risk.

23, 2021; A Trump supporter who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 threatened on social media to assassinate Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that day and also threatened the Capitol Police. 2 days ago  Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-NY, took Sen. Ted Cruz, R-TX, to task on Twitter Thursday, when Cruz expressed support of Ocasio-Cortez’s call for.
In an Instagram Live video on Tuesday night, the Democrat said she personally had an encounter, the details of which she said she couldn’t disclose due to security concerns, “where I thought I was going to die.”
She said there was “a sense that something was wrong from the inside” and that she remained fearful even after she was taken to a secure location with other elected officials.Results From Ocasio Cortez Primary
Ocasio-Cortez, who is Hispanic, noted that her fears were heightened because there were white supremacists and other extremists taking part in the mostly white mob.
The second-term representative, whose New York district covers part of Queens and the Bronx, is among the most high-profile elected officials on the political left and a lightning rod for the right and extreme right.
She had strong condemnation for Trump for inciting the riots, as well as members of his administration who have not invoked the 25th Amendment to remove him from office, as well as those who voted to overturn the election results.
Ocasio-Cortez said those who have resigned in the wake of Wednesday were “cowards.”
“They think that resigning is going to clean that blood of their hands,” she said. “It is always on them.”

In a state that’s so dominated by Democrats, the local party is going to be your true enemy. In New York, that’s very much the case with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. It’s not the GOP she has to worry about at all given the dynamics of her district. It’s the state Democratic Party who is frankly sick of her. The state is set to lose a House seat based on the 2020 census. Does the state party get rid of her district? Either way, it’s a combustible situation. If you dissolve her congressional district, Ocasio-Cortez can run someplace else and she’d probably win. If you’re Chuck Schumer, who is up for re-election in 2022, it’s a bit more worrisome as she could launch a primary challenge against you. It looks like that debate is moot, as the fiery lefty New York socialist could mount a primary challenge against Schumer in 2022. She’s not a yes or no, but Chuck should watch her very carefully (via The Hill):
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) this week did not rule out a 2022 primary challenge to Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), saying she is still deciding what her plans for the future are.
“I’m not playing coy or anything like that. I’m still very much in a place where I’m trying to decide what is the most effective thing I can do to help our Congress, our [political] process, and our country actually address the issues of climate change, health care, wage inequality, etc.,” she told the newly launched publication Punchbowl in an exclusive interview.
Asked whether her decision would be affected if Democrats look likely to lose their House majority, Ocasio-Cortez responded “I’m not sure about that either. For me, I don’t make these decisions based on these short-term factors.”
She beats to her own drum. And if she does challenge Schumer, I think it would be quite a fight. The Hill added that local party bosses said any challenge to Schumer would be doomed to failure. That might motivate her even more. After all, wasn’t Democrat Joe Crowley thought to be on solid ground before Ocasio-Cortez decided to challenge him for re-election. Anything can happen. She had the name recognition, the resources, and the ability to mobilize a progressive army against anyone. And we all know that the House of Representatives isn’t where AOC is going to settle down. She’s bound for higher office, maybe even a White House run in the future. She’s just buying time here. New York Senate, governor, etc., sky’s the limit for her in the Empire State. She’s going to run for higher office somewhere. It’s only a matter of when. Ocasio Cortez Election 2020
