The conservative commentator was unmoved by Ocasio-Cortez and other politicians' depictions of the conditions at border patrol centers.
On Monday, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other lawmakers visited U.S. Customs and Border Protection detention camps in Texas, later going on social media to decry the conditions. The New York congresswoman accused CBP officers of being “physically and sexually threatening” and claimed women there were forced to drink water from toilets.

And your Illegitimate president just had a photo op with a murderous dictator, Republicans would lose what little bit of mind they had left if it was Obama who did that.I’m honestly embarrassed and ashamed for you Tomi!— Tris Resists July 1, 2019 Since she has actually visited the facility and you have not I think she might know a little more than you.
This moment captures what it’s like for women in CBP custody to share a cramped cell—some held for 50 days—for them to be denied showers for up to 15 days and life-saving medication. For some, it also means being separated from their children. This is El Paso Border Station #1. pic.twitter.com/OmCAlGxDt8
