'Where is AOC?' Graham Calls Out NY Dem For Being MIA on Border Crisis

[TRENDINGPOLITICS] During the Trump administration, drama queen and former bartender Alexandria Boom Boom Ocasio-Cortez
Dem Congressgirl from da Bronx in Noo Yawk and leader of the Mean Girl Caucus in Congress. One of the Great Minds of the 21st Century, she is known as much for her innaleck as for her dance moves. She is all in favor of socialism, even though she's fuzzy on the details. She was the inventor of the Green New Deal, though she doesn't talk about it much anymore...
took a trip to a migrant detention facility in Texas wearing.

Wearing all white, she was photographed during a widely publicized border visit in 2018 displaying various emotions — tears, anguish, frustration, concern, fear — as she peered into a holding area surrounded by a chain-link fence.

But it turned out to be nothing more than political theater: She was busted by other photographers whose wider-angled shots showed clearly that AOC, as she is known, was not lamenting over migrant children as advertised because there was no one on the other side.

In fact, it was an empty roadway.

Now, there is a new crisis on the U.S.-Mexico border, one of Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. The very model of probity....
’s making. And yet, AOC hasn’t found the time yet to and mourn the thousands of newly-detained migrant children, most of whom are sleeping on floors wrapped by tinfoil-like blankets, if the photos published by Project Veritas are accurate.

Sen. Lindsey Graham
...soft-spoken senator from South Carolina, former best buddy of John Maverick McCain. Since McCain's demise, Graham has become more outspoken, more Republican and more of a supporter of President Trump. The speech he gave in support of Brett Kavanaugh was downright manly and really cheesed off the Dems...
(R-S.C.) called out the Bronx Democratic socialist for her hypocrisy.

"Where is AOC?" the senator asked on Wednesday during a presser.

"Most Republicans want to make sure that we deal fairly with those who’ve been here a long time but we address the underlying problems of legal immigration," Graham continued. "That’s not an unreasonable request."

"There used to be Democrats that understood to get legalization on the table, you had to address the underlying causes of illegal immigration," he continued. "Those voices have been silenced. The open borders crowd is now firmly in control of immigration."

"Where is AOC?" Graham asked. "Why aren’t you at the border looking at the things being reported. If you were worried about children under Trump being in bad conditions, this is worse. If you’re worried about people having COVID outbreaks, this is the biggest COVID spreader in the entire country. So where are you?"

Fox News has identified only two relatively mild tweets from the New York Democrat commenting on the matter during the Biden administration, however.

"This is not okay, never has been okay, never will be okay — no matter the administration or party," Ocasio-Cortez wrote on Feb. 23 in response to a Washington Post story titled, "First migrant facility for children opens under Biden."
