Uh-oh! AOC’s over-the-top Border Histrionics Laid Bare by MEN Of The Cloth 8 cfp AOC, who has never met a truth she could allow to stand“Several pastors who toured the same overrun border facility where Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., claimed “abuses” of sexism and women drinking water out of the toilet told Fox News her claims are “totally absurd.” ( Fox News, July 3, 2019) “Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, the world’s largest Hispanic Christian organization, and senior pastor of New Seasons Christian Worship Center in Sacramento, asked the White House if he could take a group of pastors to see for themselves the reported deplorable and inhumane conditions for illegal immigrants at an El Paso County, Texas migrant detention center and what they saw was “drastically different”. AOC, who has never met a truth she could allow to stand and who is always allowed the last word on Twitter, came on like an unleashed fury against the pastors in last night’s tweet: “The right is responding to what’s been exposed at the border by denying it & saying I’m lying. Hard to assert when the details I shared are corroborated by other members of Congress, court documents, migrant testimony, and now photos released today by the Inspector General.” How about those pictures depicting that not just the El Paso facility but all ICE/CBP facilities use the same toilet-sink arrangement, AOC? Rev. Rodriguez, a Trump adviser, who has previously advised both Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush on immigration, responded on “Fox @ Night” Tuesday. (Fox News) “I must be living in a parallel universe somewhere…I did not find soiled diapers. I did not find crying children. I did not find deplorable conditions,” Rodriguez told Fox News host Shannon Bream. “Quite the opposite. I found amazing people on both sides trying to make a very difficult circumstance better. I don’t know where everyone else is visiting! I spoke to border patrol agents, the vast majority of which are Latino and many attended churches that are part of our network, and I asked, ‘Hey guys, did you stage this? Did you flip the script to accommodate people like me?’ And they went ‘Pastor Sam, absolutely not. You are looking at the very thing that existed here for a number of weeks, so it’s not that we shifted because of any deplorable conditions that were discovered.’” “Rodriguez said he found out that the attorneys who reported the original “deplorable” conditions “never, ever walked through the center.” “They never visited what I visited. They took that information anecdotally to interviews with children, with children mind you, from the age of 2 to the age of 17. The truth sets you free.” “Kevin Wallace, pastor of Redemption to the Nations Church, who joined Rodriguez, slammed Ocasio-Cortez’s allegations as “totally absurd.” Instead, he witnessed “kind, considerate and passionate” Border Patrol agents. “The congresswoman is entitled to her opinion, but her opinion should never shape the truth,” Wallace told “Fox & Friends” Wednesday morning. “The truth doesn’t have a side. The truth stands on its own and people with integrity have got to make up their mind to stand on the side of truth, and the facts that we saw were there.” Tom Homan: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is intentionally misinforming the public about migrant detention centers “Ocasio-Cortez described being fearful of the border agents. But Tony Stewart, the pastor of Citylife Church who also toured the center with the delegation of seven pastors, said border agents were in tears about the mischaracterization about them. “What we saw was much different than what was said [by Ocasio-Cortez],” Stewart told “Fox & Friends First,” adding, “The reality, it is not a great situation. We are in a crisis and I would urge Congress to make this work, but border agents are doing the best they can in the circumstances. It has been over-politicized, boiled to a point and this week it exploded but I would say when we were there it was much different than I expected.”

About Trumphumpers Hillary obsession: Hillary certainly acted guilty. Paranoid, hiding stuff. Using a private server for email, erasing emails. She was probably up to corrupt stuff but not even the Russian hackers could find any dirt. If they had, the Trumpsuckers would be repeating the incriminating emails ... but they never do that. . Whatever was incriminating in the emails it was never found. So they got nothing on her. So in the absence of anything on her, they make up new lies all the time. Absurd lies about pizza parlor with imaginary basements and kidnapped children who never have names. Meanwhile they champion a man a lot worse than Hillary ... a man who breaks the law out in the open and makes up stupid lies they pretend to believe.
