According to Brooke Singman of Fox News, “Current and former immigration officials pushed back Tuesday at Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (AOC’s) high-profile accusations of cruel treatment at an El Paso border station, rejecting her claim that agents forced detainees to ‘drink out of the toilets’ and insisting that their personnel ‘don’t treat people that way.’”
“Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., traveled to the border on Monday with almost a dozen members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, as she blasted border officials as “violent” and “inhumane” — while claiming agents forced migrant women and children being detained in cells to drink toilet water.”
Never mind the fact that AOC and her democrat friends have routinely voted against any bills in the house that would offer any type of support or aid to these centers which are ridiculously over-crowded, day in and day out.
‘“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is intentionally misinforming the public about migrant detention centers,’ former ICE acting director and Fox News contributor Tom Homan said. ‘It’s ridiculous to accuse Border Patrol agents of having migrants drink toilet water.’”
‘“She’s lost all credibility,’ he said.”
“Homan suggested she was simply referring to the ‘apparatus’ in holding cells that has an attached sink and toilet, but two separate water lines. ‘You’re drinking out of the same apparatus, the same piece of equipment, but there are two separate water lines—one going to the commode, one going to the sink,’ Homan explained. ‘… [T]hey are designed that way to try to save space and make it more comfortable for the people who are in those facilities.’”
“Homan acknowledged that the facilities ‘are jails after all’ and ‘were not built for women and children,’ saying that’s why agents have been ‘begging’ Congress for more funding for beds ‘so these families can be moved into a proper facility with proper care.’”
“Former acting ICE director Ron Vitiello also pushed back on Ocasio-Cortez’s claims.”
‘“I have never seen anything like that,’ Vitiello said on ‘Fox & Friends.’ ‘And look, she was there for three minutes and now she’s an expert on what this facility looks like?’”
“Brian Hastings, chief of law enforcement operations at U.S. Border Patrol, similarly defended the agents.”
‘“We don’t treat people that way. We provide fresh water. We provide food. We provide sanitary items as well as items for bathing and personal hygiene,’ Hastings said on Fox News’ ‘The Story’ Monday night.”
This seems like just the latest example of AOC fabricating, exaggerating and manipulating reality in order to fit her own narrative and while attempting to justify her own actions and behavior.
On that note (pun intended)…, here’s my ode to the socialist democrat congresswoman from New York City…, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortz!
(Sung to the song “Great Balls of Fire,” by Jerry Lee Lewis)
You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain
Too much of you drives a person insane
You speak at will, oh what a thrill
Goodness gracious AOC’s such a liar!
You learned to love all that Hollywood money
You spend all day tryin’ to trick them honey
You’ve lost your mind, kiss my behind
Goodness gracious AOC’s such a liar!
Your funky Green Deal baby, wooo, it’s a joke
Lie to me baby, learn to let me laugh at you like everyone should
You’re dumb, ho hum
Goodness gracious AOC’s such a liar!
I bite my tongue and I twiddle my thumbs
We’re gettin’ nervous and this sure ain’t fun
Come on baby, you drive us crazy
Goodness gracious AOC’s such a liar!
