AOC demands to be sworn in to give emotional testimony with her freshman 'squad' about the migrant crisis on the border, calling treatment at detention centers 'manufactured cruelty'

Firebrand Democrat and two of the members of her 'squad' testified to the House Oversight and Reform Committee about migrant detention centers

Ocasio-Cortez demanded to be sworn in to the surprise of committee chair Elijah Cummings; she told him it was to counter Republicans saying she is lying

Giving false testimony to Congress is a federal crime whether or not a witness has sworn an oath

She had been called a liar by Trump hours earlier over her claim that migrants are forced to drink water from toilets

Number of families, children and other migrants entering from Mexico has surged above 100,000 monthly since March, overwhelming federal agencies

It is a policy of dehumanizing,' said Ocasio-Cortez, a first-term representative from New York, one of four high-profile Democratic freshmen who testified.

They were among a larger group of Democrats who visited Texas border facilities last week and returned reporting overloaded, fetid facilities and said detained women spoke of being told to drink from toilets and eat unhealthy food.

'What was worse about it was the fact that there were American flags hanging all over the facility,' she said.

Sounds like AOC committed PERJURY.

I certainly hope when the House reverts back to GOP they bring her up om Jury charges

I believe the volunteering pastor I saw on Fox news says the opposite. I trust him to not lie. I cannot say the same for these commies.

I am willing to swear under oath and affidavit, I have kept alligators out of my neighborhood.

They are subtly taking San Fran Nan to the woodshed and not for a fun afternoon I believe. As DJT often says,”We’ll see.”

Better yet, send FBI agents to question them about what they “saw”. Lying to an FBI agent is a crime.

I wonder if anyone who elected these fools feels stupid at all.

And to paraphrase, she wanted laws against making fun of Congress people on line.

That would have put Mark Twain out of business.

She has now updated the narrative of the drinking water out of the toilet incident.

Now she is saying the victim told her the upper faucets/sink did not work. When the victim complained, the agent told her to drink out of the toilet bowl.

Typical Lib — the narrative evolves and is edited, as necessary.

DailyMail.com showed a CBP official this photo from a 2016 federal court filing, which depicts toilets inside a Phoenix CBP holding facility; the official confirmed that the Texas facilities have the same fixtures – which deliver clean drinking water from faucets above every toilet
