Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.,<\/a> was not satisfied by the classified briefing lawmakers received on Tuesday regarding the Trump administration’s boat strikes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Oh, hell no. That was a joke,” she told Migrant Insider editor Pablo Manr\u00edquez.\u00a0<\/p>\n

MeidasTouch Network senior digital editor Acyn Torabi shared video on X<\/a> showing the congresswoman respond to questions from Manr\u00edquez outside the Capitol after leaving the briefing.<\/p>\n

“There was not a single piece of intelligence that was shared that even rises to the level of any other briefing that we’ve seen on Ukraine, China, anything,” Ocasio-Cortez said, adding that it “was not a serious intelligence briefing. This was a communication of opinion.”<\/p>\n

She said if President Donald Trump’s “administration wants to go to war\u2026 they need to go get it from Congress. And if Republicans want to defend this argument that cocaine is a weapon, they can go vote on that. But\u2026 this is just conjecture at this point.”<\/p>\n

Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., said during a Tuesday appearance<\/a> on the Fox News Channel that his takeaways from the briefing included that the strikes “are legal” and “effective,” that they are based on “exquisitely good” intelligence, and that “checks and balances” are in place to ensure “innocent people who just happen to be in a boat are not hurt.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
