Ocasio-Cortez Claims Border Agents Were “Sexualy Threatening” Her

Kirsters Baish’s Opinion | Democratic New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez seems to love being in front of the camera.

This Monday, the self-proclaimed Democratic Socialist took a trip to the United States’ shared border with Mexico in El Paso, Texas. While there, she visited a “housing center for foreigners who have tried to sneak into America or have claimed political asylum,” according to the Gateway Pundit.

She wanted everyone to know, so she took to social media to make a slew of claims, none of them substantiated, including one against agents with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Agency.

“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,” AOC wrote on Twitter this Monday.

It was earlier today that AOC sent out a link to a ProPublica article titled, “Inside the Secret Border Patrol Facebook Group Where Agents Joke About Migrant Deaths and Post Sexist Memes.”

“Members of a secret Facebook group for current and former Border Patrol agents joked about the deaths of migrants, discussed throwing burritos at Latino members of Congress visiting a detention facility in Texas on Monday and posted a vulgar illustration depicting Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez engaged in oral sex with a detained migrant, according to screenshots of their postings,” the story stated.

“There are 20,000 TOTAL Customs & Border Patrol agents in the US. 9,500 – almost HALF that number – are in a racist & sexually violent secret CBP Facebook group. They’re threatening violence on members of Congress. How do you think they’re treating caged children+families?” Ocasio-Cortez questioned on Twitter.

According to the Gateway Pundit, “ProPublica didn’t say all 9,500 members were part of the CBP.”

“ProPublica contacted three spokespeople for CBP in regard to the Facebook group and provided the names of three agents who appear to have participated in the online chats. CBP hasn’t yet responded,” the publication explained.

AOC claimed that “9,500 CBP officers sharing memes about dead migrants and discussing violence and sexual misconduct towards members of Congress. How on earth can CBP’s culture be trusted to care for refugees humanely? PS I have no plans to change my itinerary & will visit the CBP station today.”

Then she tweeted, “Just left the 1st CBP facility. 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.”
