Well, AOC has been accused of being unconstitutional. She's getting a dose of what Trump's been getting:

Very interesting.......
According to a US court Trump isn't allowed to block abusive Twitter accounts. So Trump can't do it but AOC can?????

BTW, I found out the other day that John Cusack has blocked my Twitter account for some reason.
I think this is cool because he took the time to block me even though I never had any exchange with him one-on-one. I actually like his movies........but when I think about it.....this changes every movie he's in for me.
John, on the surface, seems to me to be a very deep thinker....but I think his politics is a reflection of the folks around him and the business he's in. I don't think he wants to be black-balled. So who knows who's being genuine and who's just trying to bring in the bacon. I do know that Hollywood is what it is because of politics.....and that diversity of thought isn't allowed.

A free speech group slammed Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez this week for allegedly blocking users on Twitter because she doesn’t agree with their points of view.
Columbia University’s Knight First Amendment Institute sent a letter to the freshman congresswoman on Wednesday calling the practice “unconstitutional.”
“[W]e are writing in the hope of dissuading you from engaging in it,” the group wrote.
The letter comes after ex-Assemblyman Dov Hikind sued Ocasio-Cortez last month in Brooklyn federal court, claiming that the Democratic socialist pol blocked him on Twitter because of his “criticism” of her.
Hikind claimed the blocking was in violation of his First Amendment rights, citing a recent ruling by a federal appeals court in New York that found President Trump’s practice of blocking critics on Twitter was unconstitutional.
Ocasio-Cortez said through her lawyer in court papers that it’s a completely different set of circumstances because the Twitter account in question — @AOC, which has 5.3 million followers — is her personal account and not her official account, @RepAOC.
She also denied that she blocked Hikind “because of the content of his speech,” according to court papers filed by her attorney, Allyson Belovin.
The Knight First Amendment Institute, however, called Ocasio-Cortez’s characterization of her @AOC Twitter account “incorrect.”
