Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s latest Instagram tap dance around President Biden’s border crisis drew backlash. Her latest comments stand in stark contrast to comments she made on the same issue during the Trump administration.
You may recall these comments from AOC from June of 2019 when she likened the southern border’s facilities to “concentration camps” and Japanese internment camps run by a “Fascist Presidency.”
Fast forward to today, with border facilities swelled way over capacity, AOC stayed far away from her incendiary language of the past to cast blame everywhere but at the Biden administration.
It’s not a border crisis. It’s an imperialism crisis, it’s a climate crisis, it’s a trade crisis,” says AOC. She also charged that the use of the word “surge” is bad.
“They wanna say, ‘But what about the surge?’ Well, first of all, just gut check, stop. Anyone who’s using the term ‘surge’ around you consciously is trying to invoke a militaristic frame.”

Apparently, in AOC’s warped political world, it’s everything BUT a border crisis.
“Are you for real?” she asked in a condescending tone to a question simply asking, “why are you not the border crisis and the kids in cages like you used to?”
What follows is a stream-of-consciousness diatribe blaming everything except Bigfoot and Joe Biden for the crisis on the border.
Now that you’ve seen the video evidence, we must ask you, on behalf of our partners at PieOrama:
Our Take…
AOC may be the biggest hypocrite in America. We are in the midst of some extraordinary times. A time when the border patrol has to save a 6 month old dropped in the Rio Grande by smugglers, and children are dropped over the border wall, And what is AOC’s primary concern in these extraordinary times?
Tribalism. Playing to her base. Anything but recognizing that more than a few migrants took Biden’s call to “surge to the border” literally. We included this clip among our latest Top 5 video of Biden administration buffoonery:
It’s displays like this that make AOC the worst kind of hypocrite. She does not care for these poor people who traveled hundreds of miles. She probably never did. They are props, and pawns on her political chess board.
Crocodile tears from a disturbing political animal. In light of this latest video, what else can this be if not performance art? Disgusting.
Now that it’s fully on display, it’s hard to be anything but repulsed by AOC.
Update!
Apparently, AOC comments went up like a lead balloon, and she has since backtracked, stating that the conditions at the border are “barbaric” and “inhumane”. However, she reportedly has not assigned blame to President Biden.
We are left wondering if by “infrastructure”, that AOC means taking away resources so that CBP needs to be housing migrants under bridges, as Project Veritas confirmed earlier today.
