AOC Claims Border Crisis Is Not Biden’s Fault

Whoa, hold the phone, so now “kids in cages” at the “concentration camps” don’t matter anymore? AOC was all over Trump making all sorts of outrageous claims about how he was the epitome of evil when it came to his treatment of illegals. She went down to the border and made a huge fuss. But now when the border is truly in a crisis and detention centers are overpopulated to the point that the Biden Administration is going to spend millions to migrants up in hotels, it’s worse than crickets, she is making excuses for him. I guess she only cares about the migrants at the border when a Republican is in Office.

She made excuses for Biden on Instagram.

“Are you for real? So let’s talk about this because so much of our national conversation, which is not a conversation, about immigration is driven by people who could not care less about immigrants. So often people want to say, ‘Why aren’t you talking about the border crisis?’ or ‘Why are you talking about it in this way?’”

“Well, we’re talking about it. They just don’t like how we’re talking about it because it’s not a border crisis, it’s an imperialism crisis. It’s a climate crisis. It’s a trade crisis. And also, it’s a carceral crisis because as I have already said even during this term and this president, our immigration system is based and designed on our carceral system,” .”

“Secondly, Let’s talk about the climate crisis because the U.S. has disproportionately contributed to the total amount of emissions that is causing a planetary climate crisis right now, but who is bearing the brunt of that? Disproportionally, it’s actually not us. We help create the problem but disproportionally it’s the global south – it’s south Asia, it’s Latin America – that [is] going to be experiencing the floods, wildfires, and droughts in a disproportional way, which, ding, ding, ding, has already started a migration crisis but people don’t want to have that conversation.”

So it’s an imperial, carceral, trade, or climate change now. It couldn’t be that Biden dissolved the deal we had with Mexico that was keeping our Border secure right? The Biden Admin has singlehandedly caused this crisis but Dems, like AOC, that were supposed migrants advocates don’t seem to care one bit.
