Concert venue expenses: The campaign shelled out more than $23,000 renting the Coliseo De Puerto Rico on June 24 and August 25—the same venue where Ocasio-Cortez was filmed dancing at Bad Bunny’s August concert alongside Brooklyn Representative Nydia Velázquez and celebrities including LeBron James and Penelope Cruz.

Democrat lawmaker makes fool of himself: Calls DC National Guard murders “unfortunate accident”
Mississippi Democratic Representative Bennie Thompson faced fierce backlash from the Trump administration and congressional Republicans after characterizing the deadly National Guard ambush near the White House as an “unfortunate accident” [ [link removed] ] [ [link removed] ]during a Thursday hearing.
Swift reprimand: Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem immediately interrupted Thompson’s questioning: “It was a terrorist attack. He shot our Guardsmen in the head,” while Representative Andy Ogles erupted that calling the murder “an unfortunate incident” was “f--king disrespectful,” with White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt condemning the remarks as “disgraceful.”
Attack details: Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal executed National Guardswoman Sarah Beckstrom, 20, and critically wounded Guardsman Andrew Wolfe, 24, during a Thanksgiving Eve daylight assault just blocks from the White House as they patrolled the capital, with the suspect entering through Biden’s Operation Allies Welcom
e program.
Broader terror concerns: National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent testified the Intelligence Community identified approximately 2,000 known or suspected terrorists among 88,000 Afghan refugees admitted through the program, plus another 16,000 terror suspects who entered during Biden’s term with ties to ISIS, al-Qaeda, Tren de Aragua, or MS-13.
Democrats join GOP to defeat Al Green’s latest Trump impeachment push
Texas Representative Al Green’s fifth impeachment attempt against President Trump collapsed Thursday after nearly two dozen Democrats sided with Republicans [ [link removed] ] to dismiss the resolution, while party leadership abstained from supporting the measure.
Cross-party defeat: The tabling motion succeeded 237-140 with 47 abstentions, as 23 Democrats from competitive districts—including Tom Suozzi, Josh Riley, Jared Golden, and Chrissy Houlahan—voted alongside Republicans to block consideration, while top leaders Hakeem Jeffries, Katherine Clark, and Pete Aguilar chose “present” votes instea
d.
Twin impeachment charges: Green accused Trump of demanding “execution” for six lawmakers who released footage encouraging military personnel to disobey unlawful commands, which Trump called “seditious behavior...punishable by death,” while creating an atmosphere where elected officials and jurists face threats.
Strategic party positioning: Democratic leadership justified their abstentions by arguing proper impeachment demands extensive investigations, witness testimony, public hearings, and broad consensus-building—”None of that serious work has been done” given Republican control of the House focused on advancing Trump’s priorities rather than accountability measures.
Green, removed from Trump’s March congressional speech for disruptions, has repeatedly filed impeachment articles this year despite Jeffries acknowledging Republicans would never permit floor consideration since “Donald Trump will order them not to do it.”
