Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Mark Morgan said that the concentration camp comments made by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is demoralizing border patrol agents.

Appearing on Laura Ingraham’s show on Fox News, Morgan discussed the claims by Ocasio-Cortez that the US is “running concentration camps on our southern border” and called her remarks “irresponsible, reckless, and flat out wrong.”

Morgan said that he “saw Border Patrol agents, they cared for these kids as if they were their own — bringing in soccer balls to play soccer with them.”

Ingraham asked if AOC would prefer that the US release children to unvetted sponsors who may be involved in human trafficking — instead of temporarily housing them to make sure that they are safe.

“We actually want to get the kids out of those facilities because they are overcrowded,” Morgan said — explaining that they have been asking the government for $4.5 billion in supplemental funding to be able to handle the influx of illegal immigrants.

AOC has said that she will not apologize for her remarks and has repeatedly doubled down on using Holocaust terms to describe the detaining of illegal immigrants.
