**Trump Taunts AOC, Dares Impeachment Attempt Over Iran Strikes**
**NEW YORK, NY** – Former President Donald Trump has publicly challenged Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) to initiate impeachment proceedings against him following recent U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. The former president took to Truth Social to address Ocasio-Cortez’s criticism, labeling her one of the “dumbest” people in Congress and accusing her of “rantings” stemming from the successes of his administration.
Trump also criticized other progressive Democrats, including Reps. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) and Ilhan Omar (D-MN), questioning their qualifications and patriotism. He suggested Ocasio-Cortez should focus on improving her own district in Queens, New York, rather than pursuing impeachment.
Ocasio-Cortez has condemned the Iran strikes as a “grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers” and stated they are grounds for impeachment. However, Democratic Senator John Fetterman has already shut down AOC’s call for Trump’s Impeachment after Iran strikes.
Trump also addressed speculation about a potential primary challenge from Ocasio-Cortez against Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer in 2028, suggesting she should worry about her own re-election first. The former president concluded his statement by daring Ocasio-Cortez to “make my day” and proceed with impeachment.
