Alexandria Ocasio Cortez ripped the border patrol agents and accused them of forcing a migrant woman to drink from the toilet.
“Just left the 1st CBP facility,” Ocasio-Cortez said on Monday, referring to an El Paso, Texas station. “I see why CBP officers were being so physically &sexually threatening towards me. Officers were keeping women in cells w/ no water & had told them to drink out of the toilets. This was them on their GOOD behavior in front of members of Congress.”

“Now I’ve seen the inside of these facilities. It’s not just the kids. It’s everyone,” she continued. “People drinking out of toilets, officers laughing in front of members Congress. I brought it up to their superiors. They said ‘officers are under stress & act out sometimes.’ No accountability.”

“After I forced myself into a cell w/ women&began speaking to them, one of them described their treatment at the hands of officers as ‘psychological warfare’ — waking them at odd hours for no reason, calling them wh*res, etc,” AOC claimed. “Tell me what about that is due to a ‘lack of funding?’”

We all have to wonder how she break into a cell while she was escorted by a border agents?
But it seems that she can’t back these acusations because she fled from a reporter on Monday when she was asked about her claim that detained female migrants were being forced to drink from toilets in a CBP facility.
A reporter then confronted Ocasio-Cortez, asking: “Did you see somebody actually do that?”
Ocasio-Cortez rolled up the window in the vehicle that she was in, put her hand up, refused to answer the question, and said, “I’m sorry I have to go.”
