In an interview with conservative podcaster Benny Johnson, Homan stated that he has instructed the agency to pursue legal action against her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s being looked at (AOC employing illegal alien), can\u2019t comment past that. I\u2019m aware of it, we\u2019ve asked ICE to drill in on that case,\u201d Homan said. \u201cAs far as her educating people how to evade ICE arrests, she\u2019s really educating them on how to avoid prosecution. Because there are statutes on the books when you knowingly hinder your removal, that\u2019s a crime.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Johnson questioned how an undocumented immigrant could have secured employment in Congress and potentially gained access to classified information.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\">Advertisement<\/div>\n<p>\u201cIt is not possible,\u201d Homan stressed, emphasizing that the congresswoman will be held accountable if such claims are accurate.<\/p>\n<p>In March, Diego de la Vega voluntarily left the U.S. amid intensified deportation efforts by the Trump administration, citing concerns for his safety. He became politically active in 2010 when he supported the DREAM Act, legislation that sought to create a pathway to legal status for undocumented immigrants brought to the country as children.<\/p>\n<p>Although the bill narrowly failed in the Senate by five votes, de la Vega, despite his undocumented status, worked as a \u201cspecial assistant\u201d to former Harlem Assemblymember Robert J. Rodriguez and interned for Representative Carolyn Maloney (D), the report added.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-7\">Advertisement<\/div>\n<p>In 2022, de la Vega was appointed Deputy Communications Director by Ocasio-Cortez. In an interview with\u00a0<i>Migrant Insider<\/i>, AOC praised him, saying, \u201cDiego is amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Homan sent an email to the deputy attorney general requesting an investigation into Ocasio-Cortez.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-10\"><\/div>\n<p>That came shortly after reports emerged that the New York Democrat was hosting seminars teaching undocumented immigrants how to avoid ICE enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>Following Homan\u2019s email to the DOJ, AOC revealed that the Trump administration had yet to answer her requests about whether she is under federal investigation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve asked them, they haven\u2019t responded to me,\u201d Ocasio-Cortez told Fox News. \u201cBut you know, I was once again fully using the First Amendment to inform people of their constitutional rights. They say a lot of things, but I\u2019ve written a formal letter, and they won\u2019t respond.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The congresswoman organized a \u201cKnow Your Rights\u201d webinar earlier this year, in which lawyers advised illegal immigrants on how to respond to interactions with US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) authorities.<\/p>\n<p>The internet forum, held in both English and Spanish, provided legal advice and distributed papers, including one declaring that immigrants \u201cdo not have to open the door\u201d for ICE officials unless they had a judge-signed warrant.<\/p>\n<p>Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s office also supplied information on how to receive pro bono legal assistance and urged undocumented people to sign privacy release forms, which would allow her office to interfere in deportation proceedings.<\/p>\n<p>Ocasio-Cortez has forcefully denied any allegations that her actions were inappropriate, labeling the prospect of a federal inquiry \u201cpolitically motivated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ocasio-Cortez is also under fire as her district has decayed into a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/conservativebrief.com\/ocasio-district-91642\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">crime-ridden cesspool<\/a>, and voters are furious with her.<\/p>\n<p>Since she was first elected in 2019, major crime has risen by a staggering 70 percent in her Bronx\/Queens district.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe 110th Precinct in Queens, which covers part of the infamous \u2018Market of Sweethearts\u2019 human-trafficking and prostitution mecca on Roosevelt Avenue, saw a 105% surge, the highest increase of any NYC precinct in that period,\u201d The Post said in its report.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMajor crimes consist of murder, rape, robbery, felony assault, burglary, grand larceny and auto theft,\u201d the outlet continued.<\/p>\n<p>The 115<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0precinct, which is also in the representative\u2019s district, saw a whopping increase of 85 percent in major crimes, and her constituents are frustrated with their celebrity representative.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/conservativebrief.com\/ocasio-district-91642\/\">She\u2019s not doing s\u2013t<\/a>.
