President Donald Trump hosted a private White House movie night on Saturday for 'Melania'. The documentary is centered on first lady Melania Trump, prompting sharp criticism from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who questioned the president’s priorities as another fatal ICE shooting of Alex Pretti, ICU nurse, unfolded in Minneapolis the same day.
“Today DHS assassinated a VA nurse in the street, Bondi is attempting to extort voter files, and half the country is bracing on the eve of a potentially crippling ice storm with FEMA gutted. So what is the President up to? Having a movie night at the White House. He’s unfit,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote on social media, reacting to the screening amid multiple domestic crises.
According to the White House’s public calendar, Trump and the first lady screened the Amazon MGM Studios documentary at the White House in an event that was not open to the press pool.
