Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is at it again, accusing Republicans of being politically motivated when her own party is the one who plays that game with Americans.
She called Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla) recent action of sending illegal migrants to the swanky island of Martha’s Vineyard “crimes against humanity,” accusing him of “trafficking” people just to get votes ahead of the November midterms.
It’s appalling that far-right politicians seem to have decided that fall before an election is their regularly scheduled time to commit crimes against humanity on refugees.

Don’t normalize this. Lying to & trafficking people for TV and clicks isn’t politics as usual. It’s abuse.
She hasn’t complained once about the border crisis that President Joe Biden has created because it helps her party. However as soon as Republican governors began to bring awareness to the issue, AOC has a problem with it.
But not for the right reason.
Instead of admitting that Biden’s open border policies are causing havoc on the country, she spins the story and puts the blame on Republicans, such as DeSantis and Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) who are tired of the Democrat’s games and taking measures into their own hands.
For calling illegal immigrants a “blessing” with so much to offer, Democrats sure did ship them off the island as quickly as possible.
If only that effort would go into actually securing the border stuff like this wouldn’t happen, however that would mean the Left would have to actually do something legal and for the U.S. for once.
Additionally, the squad member is welcoming more illegal migrants into her home state of New York as residents are needing to make an extra $50 per hour in order to even afford a two-bedroom apartment.
What a lot of Republican politicians fail to understand is that not everyone shares their zero-sum, scarcity mindset.

Many of us understand that immigrants and refugees are a blessing. They have so much to offer our country, & much of our growth as a nation is because of them.?? https://t.co/AEVdPQCMAi
