As Democrats continue to decry the Trump administration’s strict immigration policies, calling for agencies like the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to be disbanded, freshman Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is going one step further, suggesting that the Department of Homeland Security should be broken up.

During an interview with The New Yorker Radio Hour’s David Remnick, Ocasio-Cortez appeared to blame the Bush administration for initially forming the agency back in 2002 in the wake of the terrorist attacks on September 11th.

“I feel like we are, at a very, it’s a very qualified and supported position, at least in terms of evidence, and in terms of being able to make the argument that we never should’ve created DHS in the early 2000s,” said Ocasio-Cortez. She went on to say that she supported abolishing ICE, a common rallying cry among House Democrats.

“Would you get rid of the Department of Homeland Security, too?” Remnick asked.

“I think so,” she replied. “I think we need to undo a lot of the egregious mistakes that the Bush administration did.”

CBS news reported that Ocasio-Cortez cited her recent visit to a border detention facility in El Paso, Texas as grounds for disbanding the agency. She described the conditions in the facility as “horrible” and said she witnessed “some of the most inhumane behavior.”

“It’s not even living…it was the physical manifestation of Trump’s rhetoric and calling migrants animals because that’s how these women were being treated, their hair was falling out, they had sores in their mouths due to the lack of nutrition..the cruelty is the point,” she said.

The congresswoman had previously come under fire for comparing the facilities to “concentration camps”, a term she claims was “important” to use.

“This whole crisis and the treatment of migrants at our border has been this low-grade static background noise, torture that has been happening in our country and it’s getting worse and worse and worse,” she said.

Video proving Democrats are lying.

The topic of illegal immigration has dominated headlines lately sparking what seems like coordinated outrage among liberals. Apparently oblivious to the fact that the Obama administration detained minors at the border for years, the left has pointed fingers instead at President Donald Trump for enforcing regulations that were enacted before he was even president.

Not only are the photos of “children in cages” that are being shared from the Obama era, according to The Washington Post the Obama administration also failed to protect thousands of Central American children who have flooded across the U.S. border since 2011, leaving them vulnerable to traffickers and to abuses at the hands of government-approved caretakers.

Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) initiated the six-month investigation after several Guatemalan teens were found in a dilapidated trailer park near Marion, Ohio, where they were being held captive by traffickers and forced to work at a local egg farm.

According to The Western Journal, the boys were among more than 125,000 unaccompanied minors who have surged into the United States since 2011, fleeing violence and unrest in Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.

Another Guatemalan was placed with a sponsor who forced him to work at least 12 hours a day to pay off a $6,500 smuggling debt, which the sponsor later increased to $10,900, according to the report.
