Ocasio-Cortez Backtracks on Concentration Camp Remark, Blames Liz Cheney
After a considerable amount of backlash for accusing the United States of running concentration camps on the southern border (and repeatedly doubling down on that claim), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is now backtracking on her original statement, blaming Rep. Liz Cheney for making the comparison of concentration camps to the Holocaust.

In addition to the backlash she’s received, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has received (and turned down) multiple invites to visit and tour actual concentration camps so she can get educated on what they really were and why her comparison was irresponsible. Perhaps attempting to pin the blame on Liz Cheney was the best strategy her staff could come up with, but it rings hollow, as it was Ocasio-Cortez who originally told her followers on Instagram, “The U.S. is running concentration camps on our southern border and that is exactly what they are. They are concentration camps. And.. umm… If that doesn’t bother you… I don’t… [unintelligble] I want to talk to the people that are concerned enough with humanity to say that ‘never again’ means something,”
The words “concentration camps” and “never again” are ubiquitous with the Nazi Holocaust. It is highly unlikely that Ocasio-Cortez does not know this. Obviously, AOC was trying to evoke the Nazi Holocaust and Nazi concentration camps. Further, after she was called out by Rep. Cheney, AOC followed up with a tweet accusing the Trump administration of establishing concentration camps and saying, “This is not hyperbole. It is the conclusion of expert analysis,” and linked to an Esquire article that acknowledged that the term “is synonymous with the Nazi death machines across the European continent.” If she wasn't trying to evoke the Holocaust she would have pointed that out originally, and now she's trying to change the narrative.

Crackpot Socialist AOC Blames LIZ CHENEY Not Herself for Using Holocaust Imagery to Describe Illegal Alien Holding Centers
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made headlines last week when she compared ICE holding centers for illegal aliens to ‘concentration camps’ like what was in practice in Nazi Germany.
AOC later said she will NEVER apologize for her offensive and ignorant remarks.
On Saturday Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called on her supporters to report ICE sightings and to harbor illegal alien criminals in their homes!
She’s gone from obtuse statements to pushing criminal behavior.
On Monday Ocasio-Cortez reached a new low accusing Rep. Liz Cheney and not herself for using Holocaust imagery to describe the current US illegal alien holding centers.
She wants open borders and doesn’t care how many lies she has to tell to get it done.
