Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) used her recent trip to Texas to solicit donations for her congressional campaign, according to an email blast she sent out.<\/p>\n<p>AOC raised a few million dollars for Texas relief after a freak winter storm caused a temporary energy crisis in the Lone Star State, and later visited the state to briefly help support food banks.<\/p>\n<p>In an email sent out by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress, AOC blamed Republicans for the crisis in Texas, claiming that the \u201cRepublican-run government\u201d decided to not prepare because they didn\u2019t want to \u201ccut into profits of their privatized energy system.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the email that she sent, AOC included three links to solicit donations for her campaign.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe disaster in Texas is quite literally what happens when you don\u2019t pass a Green New Deal,\u201d the page that solicited donations stated. \u201cThe Green New Deal centers the creation of good, decent jobs, the public good, and environmental justice. Watch the video, and if you can, chip in to help us grow this movement and win.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>AOC also made news this week after she only <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/aoc-mocked-for-giving-biden-a-slap-on-the-wrist-for-opening-detention-camps-for-migrant-kids\">mildly criticized<\/a> President Joe Biden for opening a migrant detention facility for children. During the Trump-era, AOC demonized the administration for the same thing, falsely <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/ocasio-cortez-trump-running-concentration-camps-ryan-saavedra\">claiming<\/a> that Trump was \u201crunning concentration camps on our southern border,\u201d which she compared to the Holocaust.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is not okay, never has been okay, never will be okay \u2013 no matter the administration or party,\u201d AOC started out. However, a short time later she started to change her tune, adding, \u201cOur immigration system is built on a carceral framework. It\u2019s no accident that challenging how we approach both these issues are considered \u2018controversial\u2019 stances. They require reimagining our relationship to each other and challenging common assumptions we take for granted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s only 2 mos into this admin &#038; our fraught, unjust immigration system will not transform in that time,\u201d Ocasio-Cortez continued, in what appeared to be a reversal of her earlier statement, which was only a mild criticism compared to her over-the-top false claims made during the Trump-era. \u201cThat\u2019s why bold reimagination is so impt. DHS shouldn\u2019t exist, agencies should be reorganized, ICE gotta go, ban for-profit detention, create climate refugee status &#038; more.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
