Summary
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez announced she will not attend Donald Trump’s inauguration, stating, “I don’t celebrate rapists,” referencing Trump’s history of sexual assault allegations.
While Trump has never been convicted of rape, a jury found him civilly liable for sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll.
Ocasio-Cortez also criticized TikTok for crediting Trump with restoring service in the U.S., calling it a propaganda move.
She warned of social media platforms being weaponized by right-wing interests, claiming they are contributing to the rise of “21st-century fascism” under the incoming administration.
It seems people have forgotten about several other rape cases including one for a teen in 1996. This case disappeared all of a sudden. Either a payoff or a threat quashed the case. There is a docket number and it really exists.
