Trump Responds To Congresswoman’s Statement
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is calling for President Donald Trump’s impeachment in the wake of his decisive military strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities — a demand that has triggered a fierce and public counterattack from the president himself. The latest clash between Trump and the high-profile progressive underscores deepening political tensions in Washington following one of the most consequential national security decisions of Trump’s presidency.
On Saturday, Trump authorized a military operation targeting three of Iran’s nuclear sites. The administration has framed the strike as a historic success, claiming it severely crippled Iran’s ability to pursue a nuclear weapon. Critics, however, including Ocasio-Cortez, argue the move lacked congressional approval and could escalate conflict in the region.
“Take it out on whoever convinced you to betray the American people and our Constitution by illegally bombing Iran and dragging us into war,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote on X. She also accused the president of abandoning campaign promises within months of taking office.

Her initial calls for impeachment quickly drew a response from Trump, who posted a scathing message on Truth Social Tuesday. “Stupid AOC, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, one of the ‘dumbest’ people in Congress, is now calling for my Impeachment…” Trump wrote. He dismissed her remarks as uninformed and questioned her fitness for office, sarcastically suggesting she undergo cognitive testing.
Ocasio-Cortez responded with a mix of sarcasm and regional bravado: “Mr. President, don’t take your anger out on me — I’m just a silly girl,” she wrote. “I’m a Bronx girl. You should know that we can eat Queens boys for breakfast. Respectfully.”
HOLY SMOKES! Trump just called Rep. AOC “THE MOUSE”

The exchange has drawn widespread attention, not just for its content but for its tone. Trump’s comments reflect his familiar rhetorical style, blending mockery with counterpunching. Ocasio-Cortez, known for her own confrontational approach on social media, appeared to soften her posture once the president entered the conversation directly — though she maintained her broader criticism of the strike.
Trump’s supporters argue that the congresswoman is out of her depth in matters of national defense, especially in the wake of an operation that many on the right have hailed as a bold deterrent to Iranian aggression. His allies say the strike demonstrates strength and strategic clarity, accusing opponents like Ocasio-Cortez of politicizing national security.
