Kirsters Baish; Opinion| It was previously reported that Democratic freshman congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made a tearful appearance at a chain-linked fence at the shared border between the United States and Mexico. It’s now seeming that the photos and AOC’s story don’t quite add up.

At the time, Ocasio-Cortez tweeted, “I’ll never forget this, because it was the moment I saw with my own eyes that the America I love was becoming a nation that steals refugee children from their parents, & caged them.
More kids died after this. To date, no one has been held accountable.
We need to saved these kids.”

According to Twitchy, “The pictures Ocasio-Cortez helped spread around only showed her reaction, and not what she was looking at. With that in mind, people have found photos that appear to show different angles, including what was on the other side of the fence through which AOC was looking — or what wasn’t on the other side as it were.”
Searched Grabien’s PhotoBank and found these alternate angle pics of @AOC where her sad-face pics were shot. Apparently she was crying about the lack of migrant children for her photo op. pic.twitter.com/8FMB8OQR6K

So AOC was really just trying to get some stock border crisis images for Getty. The “crying at the border” pics were just crying at cars behind a fence

As you can see, these angles paint a much different story than the one that AOC was spewing. She is not sobbing at the sight of migrant children being detained in “cages” by the US government, but rather at an empty parking lot.
PJ Media reports:
In other AOC concentration camp news, she just voted against the border spending package. It’s not often that a Democrat doesn’t want to throw money at a problem, particularly when the problem is Latin-American children in trouble, so I just wanted to note her newfound sense of fiscal responsibility. We’ll make a Republican out of AOC yet.
This POS “””AOC””” needs to be run the fuck out of this Country ……..period!!!!!!!!!!!
What a Total POS ….Piece Of Shit, turd!!!!!!
