Ocasio-Cortez defiant in face of criticism for opposing border $$ bill while decrying conditions | Fox News
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is firing back at accusations of hypocrisy for railing against conditions in migrant detention centers, after having voted against funding legislation for the humanitarian crisis at the border.


“People like AOC create the disaster, refuse to fix it, vote against funding to help people and then go down there to attack the people who are saying to her, ‘we don’t have enough money, we don’t have enough facilities,’” former GOP House Speaker Newt Gingrich said on Fox News’ “America’s Newsroom,” calling her "viciously dishonest."

The criticisms of Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., come after the freshman Democrat traveled to the border in El Paso, Texas on Monday with almost a dozen members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, blasting border officials while claiming agents forced migrant women and children in cells to drink toilet water.
See this is typical Democrat, look at the Tweets. If they sit with them in a cell and talk, then they are one of them. It's like always, symbolism over substance. She won't vote to help them, but will gladly do a photo-op at the border, and then sit on the concrete with them; followed by criticism of the people who are actually trying to help them. You don't have to join them in the cell to know they need food, and you certainly don't need to join them, to help the CBP personnel who are actually working for the American people.............and have been begging for support. I'll bet the dumb bitch still thinks it's a manufactured crisis. All she's done is piss off the CBP and make unsubstantiated allegations about them.
 
“People like AOC"... Gingrich.

Shouldn't the thread title be, "Gingrich blows dog whistle against racists' and sexists' favorite freshman representative"? And how is that washed-up scumbag's opinion breaking news?


Breaking News: "Hear ye, hear ye! Gingrich blows dog whistle!"



I'll bet the dumb bitch

There it is.

And here comes the forums wolf crier, with his tired and lame schtick trying to claim racism at every turn.
 
Stopped reading right there. Try hard to understand how bad that comment of yours was. Try very hard.

Oh, and fix your grammar if you want to be taken seriously. ;)

American spoke the truth. She's a typical Democrat.

Or maybe you can show me one of her fellow Congressmen who speak against her actions?

Grammar schmammar
 
Like clockwork. :lamo

He once claimed I was racist because I had use a capital W when writing White People. He'd call you racist if you described a nice day as having "Blue skies and puffy WHITE clouds..."
 
I have fans. :D

I love it when you people lie. Just goes to show you how easily you let a freshman Congresswoman live rent-free inside your heads. :)

I know, I know, as a self-proclaimed conservative, you struggle to take personal responsibility for your actions. :)
 
She said that she doesn't trust the Trump administration to properly use the money that Congress would approve for them. You can agree or disagree but there is no need to make things up.

That and its complete projection. That's what republicans do.

Plus, they completely ignore the actual reason, and that is, the bill is just a blank check with no accountability and nothing going specifically to help these people

And talk about typical, the dishonesty of the OP is typical of right wingers. Just like every childish, dumb comment to follow. They won't even address the facts in the case, it is just "liberals are stupid poopyheads".

They never, ever, admit when they are wrong. Hell tRump could say that the Moon is made of goat cheese, and when the media called him out on it, he and his followers would call them "fake news." :doh

BP has a 4 billion dollar budget and is one of the largest agencies in the government.

I know how you love big government and throwing large sums of money at agencies but come on, they get plenty of support.
 
Her stance is correct. She is not a spineless dem who simply gives Mitch and Trump what they want. Try and spin it all you like, you're wrong and you know it.

Democrats have no interest in actually solving problems. They get the majority of their political power from creating and perpetuating problems then telling their constituents that it's all somebody else's fault and only the Democrats can save them. In that regard they have been Socialists since the 30s.

AOC is a tyrant. A little bit of power accompanied by zero accomplishments and she's off to the races. She knows the CBP can't hit her back. They can defend and try to educate, but no way can they hit back as she tries her level best to destroy their reputations, their livelihoods and their profession. She doesn't give 2 rips if half or so are hispanic or immigrants themselves. No, AOC has found a way to exploit the border to create a false narrative and she doesn't care who gets hurt.
Her brand of radical believes that you never, ever apologize, never, ever admit you're wrong and always double down.

She is Goebbells with red lipstick.

Gingrich also wants you to vote for Marianne Williamson and considers her a serious candidate. Will you listen to him on that as well?

I love it when all you have is a claim...with nothing to back it up with.

Dismissed.

That makes her a paranoid idiot who is also a zero-sum game psycho. Sure, Trump might use some of the money for something with which she disagrees. Welcome to politics little girl.
AOC cut off the noses of the migrants in detention and spited their faces, not her own.

If AOC thinks that's a reasonable excuse for not funding humanitarian aid, she needs to go.

Yes. I am paying attention to those who have been there, who have talked with the CBP personnel, who have toured the facilities and actually witnessed the situation that exists. AOC refused to do that when offered the opportunity.

Those who have done that report that those "evil" CBP people are shelling money out of their own pockets and bringing clothes out of their own closets for migrants they pulled out of the river who had nothing other than the wet muddy clothing on their back. Multiply that situation by tens of thousands at any given time and it isn't hard to see the humanitarian crisis the Democrats have created by first inviting them here and then refusing to do anything to deal with the problem they have caused, continue to cause, and will continue to cause.

The people under the care of the Border Patrol are being treated humanely and decently. Yes, there is overcrowding, but that is not the fault of those dealing with it. Some have died in spite of medical treatment because they were in such bad shape when they got here. That is not the fault of those dealing with it either.

The alternative is to release millions of people into the general population where they will need every kind of public resources, and they will include those with dangerous communicable diseases and who are criminally minded and will commit all kinds of destructive, sometimes deadly, mayhem. And only a small percentage of them are showing up for the court hearings these days.
