Retired bartender Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez suffered her biggest meltdown to date while former Hunter Biden business associate Tony Bobulinski was testifying on the Biden crime family.
AOC demanded to know what crimes President Biden was being accused of, asking "Is it your testimony today that you personally witnessed President Joe Biden commit a crime?" before immediately cutting him off before he could answer.
"How much time do I have to go through it?," Bobulinski replied, and began listing a number of crimes and acts of financial corruption in his business dealings with his son Hunter, alleging that President Biden had committed a RICO [Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act] violation.
"What is the crime sir, specifically," AOC demanded, seemingly not wanting to actually hear the answer.
"You asked me to answer the question. I answered the question. RICO, you’re obviously not familiar with. Corruption statutes. FARA," Bobulinski replied before AOC cut him off again; "Excuse me, sir. Excuse me, sir. RICO is not a crime. It is a category.”
AOC's argument here is largely semantics. RICO is a federal law at 18 U.S.C. §§ 1961-68. RICO violations are indeed crimes, and AOC wouldn't let Bobulinski elaborate on which alleged Biden crimes would count as RICO violations. RICO was initially created with the goal of taking down the mafia in the U.S., which is was largely successful at doing. While it’s more likely the case that AOC is just clueless on this issue, if she legitimately believed that RICO violations aren’t crimes because they're a "category," it would immediately render the (already completely bogus) RICO charges against Donald Trump moot in Georgia.
Bobulinski then tried to explain that RICO is "a category of crimes that you are then charged under," before AOC again began talking over him.
Then, the mother of all meltdowns followed.
