Socialist Democrat candidate for Congress Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says the United States is currently committing “international human rights abuses” at the U.S.-Mexico border because of President Trump’s “zero tolerance” policy.
In an interview with Al Jazeera’s AJ+, Ocasio said the U.S. is currently involved in crimes against humanity by criminally prosecuting all border crossers at the southern border.

“Right now, the nation that we are living in is a country that … an administration that has committed international human rights abuses by separating children from their parents,” Ocasio told Al Jazeera. “That is being done in our name. Once something that extreme happens, we have to act immediately.”
Ocasio accused Americans of becoming increasingly bigotted because of policies like Trump’s travel ban from some Muslim-majority countries — which was recently upheld by the Supreme Court.
“What the administration is doing is racializing the fight over immigration,” Ocasio said. “And that is stoking an increased sense of bigotry in the country. And so there is absolutely a connection and that is why I think we have to be in solidarity with each other.”
A plurality of Americans say they support Trump’s zero tolerance policy at the border, which now detains illegal alien adults and the children with whom they crossed into the U.S.
In a 2014 poll, a majority of swing voters and GOP voters said that even migrants described as “children” should be deported “as soon as possible,” as Breitbart News’s Neil Munro reported at the time. The poll indicated that in the midst of this border crisis, Americans by a majority support tougher than usual border policies.
Detaining child border crossers was a policy during the Obama administration, when Breitbart Texas exclusively reported on the conditions in which unaccompanied minors were being packed into crowded cells and holding facilities. As Breitbart News most recently reported, the U.S. has been separating child border crossers from the illegal alien adults they arrived with since before 2001.

And she misrepresented herself by trying to take advantage of the woman’s and Latino movement when in fact she comes from a well to do elitist family. And gullible people will vote for her…
A little more on dear, sweet Ally:

Yes, she is a liar(of COURSE she is, as she’s an aspiring politician), because she paints herself as jenny from the hood, but I wouldn’t call it a sprawling estate, either. That is if this pic is legit?:

Regardless, she can go straight to HELL, do not pass go and take her commie platform with her after she stuffs it someplace dark.
thank you for getting this out. Beware of wolves in sheeps clothing
You’re welcome, SKYWALKER. It’s a beautiful venue for truth Henry & co work so hard to promote here. My efforts pale comparatively,.regrettably, but I can only try. Everyone here does their best!
Yeah, but I’d guess a house like that, in a New York suburb, with trees no less, is likely quite expensive.
She’s one to watch. Appeals to bleeding hearts. May be being groomed for presidency.
.
Oh yeah, Galen, definitely worth more than a suburban home in Chattanooga, but this crap is playing both sides of the coin as per the usual. I wholly agree with you re presidential grooming. .she has all the right current credentials to validate and quell the “minority vote” and substantiate its success. The trifecta of no penis, brown and latina, despite its real support among Americans and the sexism and racism aspect, is enough to validate the false perception of status quo. F’g “voters” and the power it wields to idiots. It suppresses REAL change.
Emma Goldman…..Cortez. Propaganda of the deed. All they have left is violence. Portland attacks by Antifa 3 days ago were very disturbing. The media being complicit again trying to cover it up claiming there were riots when it was actually an attack. The acronym being Anti – Faschistische Aktion ( German anti-fascist organization). But when did the left switch to BECOME the fascists? And they don’t even realize it.
I don’t have to point out that Ms. Cortez is a mindless bimbo. Just read what she said.
Who exactly is going to pay for free college tuition and free medicare for all? (maybe we should all live in tent cities so Pedro can go to college)
Why is a national border a “human rights abuse”? The parents separated themselves from their children as soon as they decided to involve them in their crime.
Forget this woman because she’s idiot, and the voters aren’t half as stupid.
“In an interview with Al Jazeera’s AJ+, Ocasio said the U.S. is currently involved in crimes against humanity by criminally prosecuting all border crossers at the southern border.”
And….once again, another dumbass politician CLEARLY missing the whole point of the border round up, which is that they crossed the border ILLEGALLY!!! In other words,THAT MAKES THEM CRIMINALS AND FELONS! DUH!!!
What do you want them to do? Just let the whole world in and invade our country? What a friggin’ dumbass!
Is she as dumb as Pelosi or is just me?
Let’s give her all of the illegals and see how she feels. No please, Ocasio, don’t get rid of them when they come to your house. They are just using your home and kicking you out after taking your job and all your goods. I can’t believe you would even think of harming those people. That would be a crime against humanity, don’tcha know.
Unfrigginbelievable…….
This is how they push us aside, hey infiltrate,takeover thank to the liberals who open the door to therm. they hate this country and want to make it into a vision of where they come from in order to take us down from the inside. if it were lefrt up to me, no dual citizens or others would be able to vote or hold office until after 3 generations have become american citizens
All of the above…plus she is already back tracking on her “support” for Gazans….naturally!
