Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) put forward a wild theory about why House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is blocking a bipartisan victims' rights act. In Ocasio-Cortez's thinking, she told Emma Vigeland on "The Majority Report" podcast, the reason Johnson doesn't want the bill to go through is that it has her own name on it. "I have bills that are so commonsense that passed committee unanimously, that everyone agrees on, Republicans agree on, Democrats agree on, swing-seat folks agree on," said Ocasio-Cortez. In general, she added, "we find other ways to be effective," so that's not the end of the world. Previous reporting indicated that Republicans particularly don't want an Ocasio-Cortez bill to advance because they are fearful it would bolster her credentials to run for president in 2028.
