AOC says she will 'never apologize,' blasts GOP for focus on 'concentration camps' comparison

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., refused to apologize Wednesday for labeling migrant detention centers as "concentration camps."

"I will never apologize for calling these camps what they are," she tweeted response to a call by House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy's, R-Calif., for her to apologize.

"DHS ripped 1000s of children from their parents & put them in cages w inhumane conditions," she added. "They call their cells 'dog pounds' & 'freezers.' If that makes you uncomfortable, fight the camps, not the nomenclature."

Ocasio-Cortez also retweeted Rep. Jared Huffman, D-Calif., who accused the GOP of engaging in "fake outrage."

"There's a lot of fake GOP outrage from folks who have no problem with warehousing thousands of innocent, desperate people in barbed-wire enclosures that look and function like concentration camps," Huffman said Wednesday. "Can we please talk about that?"

McCarthy joined a number of Republicans and other government figures who took offense at her comparison, including Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement DIrector Mark Morgan who called the New York congresswoman's comments "irresponsible."

"This type of rhetoric from our elected leaders is reckless, irresponsible, misinformed and wrong," he told Fox News on Wednesday.

Rush today says that she might be making these foolish statements on purpose because she’s looking for attention. If she doesn’t say these stupid things, she would just be a wall flower simpleton. She’s part of the “jack ass TV generation “.

Dictionary.com definition of concentration camp:

a guarded compound for the detention or imprisonment of aliens, members of ethnic minorities, political opponents, etc.

She’s actually inside their definition of it.

The Justice Democrats are working overtime to come up with outrageous things for AOC to say. She’s sorta like a parrot.

Ask the detainees what they think. I will bet you that they not only don’t complain about the Detainment Centers being “Concentration Camps” but that they actually enjoy a little high livin’ now and then. The ignorant said the same thing about Gitmo, and time has proven these communist idiots totally wrong.

If AOC doesn’t like the process. She can write a new law that changes it and funds it. That is her job.

“WASHINGTON, D.C.—In a video to her constituents Monday evening, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez compared mandatory math classes in public schools to “concentration camps.”

Ocasio-Cortez made several comparisons between public school arithmetic lessons and concentration camps, referencing the brutality of the Holocaust throughout her address.

“Kids are, like, being forced to learn numbers and do, like, long division,” she said. “And even short and
medium-sized division. This is basically what happened in the Holocaust. Math teachers are, like, pretty much fascists. We should call them Add-Olf Hitler. You know, because of the additioning they make us do.”

“This isn’t happening in the ‘40s either-—this is happening in 2019,” she added as she began trying to cook some instant noodles in the microwave. “We are basically living in Nazi Germany now.”

Ocasio-Cortez was forced to cut off her live stream after smoke began billowing out of her microwave.”

she has to outfreak the last freakout to be relevant to the loser base she represents, so soon she has to get back to being against her previous positions to keep up the outrage,

Right, these holding facilities at / near the border into which illegal border-violators are temporarily remanded are the exact same as the Nazi concentration camps into which the Nazis placed Jews who were attempting to sneak into Nazi Germany.

Were the Jews free to leave? Did the Jews show up to Hilters door from hundreds of miles away begging to get into the concentration camps? This woman is a gift. Keep talking twat.
