Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez released a video explaining her refusal to attend President Donald Trump's second inauguration, stating, 'I don't celebrate rapists.'
The video went viral, with one version viewed more than 14 million times, as reported on the X platform.
Ocasio-Cortez linked the negotiations over the TikTok ban to accusations of authoritarianism against the president, saying, 'We are on the eve of an authoritarian administration.'
ABC News agreed to pay $15 million to Trump's future presidential library, along with $1 million in legal fees, following a settlement over false statements made about Trump.
