Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other radical leftist members of Congress wanted to get arrested while virtue signaling in front of the Supreme Court. We know this because they were engaged in blatantly illegal activities by blocking roads and diverting any emergency vehicles that may be attempting to save lives instead of engaging in a lawful protest as protected by our Constitution.
But they were sorely disappointed when law enforcement simply escorted them to a separate area without handcuffing them. That didn’t stop AOC from at least pretending to get handcuffed, making for a wonderful photo op to rally the radicals behind their abortion-on-demand cause.
Watch as she is escorted by law enforcement with her hands conspicuously behind her back, only to lift her free and totally not handcuffed fist to the cheering crowd when she thought cameras had stopped pointing at her.

This is ludicrous, but considering it’s AOC it is what it is.
Fellow Squad member Ilhan Omar joined in on the pantomime:
Both are pretending they got arrested.

According to Capitol Police, 16 of those detained were sitting members of Congress.
UPDATE: We made a total of 34 arrests for Crowding, Obstructing or Incommoding (DC Code § 22–1307).
That arrest number includes 16 Members of Congress.

The baby murderers want to be victims so badly they’re willing to pretend like they’re handcuffed just to get sympathy from the sheep who adore them.
Here are the details from Douglas Blair at Daily Signal:
Police Detain AOC Outside Supreme Court During Pro-Abortion Protest
At least 10 congressional Democrats, including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., joined pro-abortion demonstrators Tuesday outside the Supreme Court less than a month after the justices overruled Roe v. Wade in a landmark decision.
Protesters blocked the street just outside the Supreme Court Building until police officers arrested and escorted the protesters away for blocking traffic while calling for a return to abortion on demand.
As an officer held Ocasio-Cortez’s left arm while escorting her and another woman, the New York Democrat put both her hands behind her back, as if she has been handcuffed.
She briefly raised her right fist in the air before quickly lowering it and placing both wrists together behind her back again.
Ocasio-Cortez was the highest-profile detainee, but other members of the “squad” of younger female Democrats present included Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, and Ayanna Pressley of Ohio. Other lawmakers also were arrested by police, the New York Post and other outlets reported.
Ocasio-Cortez and other Democrats have defended pro-abortion protesters who have marched and chanted outside the homes of Supreme Court justices, despite laws against doing so, ever since someone leaked a draft majority opinion in Dobbs on May 2 to the news outlet Politico.
Here is video from the scene Tuesday:

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
