Well thanks to the gift that just keeps giving the Former Bar person known as AOC has given Trump an excuse for more charges to be dropped because according to her RICO isn't a crime :pmsl:
She should have stuck to wiping tables :gigglesnshit:

And the problem is?

RICO is not and has never been a crime in an of itself.

The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) of 1970 seeks to strengthen the legal tools in evidence gathering by establishing new penal prohibitions and providing enhanced sanctions and new remedies for dealing with the unlawful activities of those engaged in organized crime.


In essence RICO allows the prosecutor to charge individuals who did not, themselves, commit a crime if it can be proved that they are a part of an organisation whose goal and purpose caused that crime to be committed. It's a bit complicated so here's a person better at explaining it



At the most basic level RICO is not a crime it is an act perpetrated in furtherance of a crime.

And which former Mayor of New York used RICO to drive the Italian mob out of NY in order to replace them with the Russian mafia? Bonus points for the org that laundered money through dodgy real estate loans based on over valuation of properties :dunno:

Surely you know by now that the extreme right will jump on any statement, especially one by a woman of colour, and try to make it a talking point.

I love Rayner when she stands in for PMQ's, unlike many male MP's she has a set of balls and will quite gladly pulverise Sunak&Co with those balls.

Don't you get it yet.

Billionaire father, public school, never worked but still has an income in the hundreds of thousands if not millions because they get given things because it's their birthright = One of us - understands us etc.

Working class, comprehensive school, worked hard, acheived through merit = One of 'The Elite'

If you don't get it yet just continue to have parts of your brain removed until you do.

Trump has said there's "Nothing wrong" with inciting violence against judge Juan Merchan's daughter Loren.

In reply to a motion from the NYAG highlighting Trump's attempts to stir up his base against the Judge's daughter on his social media platform and asserted that such attacks violated the terms of a court order directing that no participant in the trial should make any kind of comment on social media that could be interpreted as incitement to violence against the person or family members of any of the court staff, witnesses or jurors.

Rather than doing what a decent person would do, and at the very least clarifying that none of his supporters should take the same sort of actions against this judge's daughter they have taken against others Trump has put in their crosshairs, Trump has countered that there is 'nothing wrong' with making remarks and doxxing the Judge's daughter and making false claims about her likely to endanger her safety.

Can you post anything she has actually got passed that has helped her constituents?
Because apparently she is quite unpopular in her constituency and only wins because the old Hispanics vote for their own.
But even they are disillusioned with her now.
of course we know you won't point out her achievements because she has none. Instead you will just post more anti Trump gibberish inserting your fav word strawman when ever possible.

Since you ask:-

In 2019 she was able to introduce and get passed an amendment that funded treatment for perscription opiod addiction.

She co-authored a bill to remove a restitction on the construction of new public housing in her district.

She organised an effort to vote down a bill that would have allowed mass survelliance on left and right wing activist alike.

She has also been consistent in 'doing her homework', making herself familiar with the intricacies of an issue instead of parroting whatever lines the lobbyists feed her and asking thoughtful, incisive and - as was demonstrated in this case - informed question that rip her MAGA opponents to shreds,
