Democrat Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez visited a CBP (U.S. Customs and Border Protection) facility in El Paso, Texas on Monday and claimed officers were being “physically & sexually threatening” toward her.

Tune in to hear Alex Jones discuss this live!

“Officers were keeping women in cells w/ no water & had told them to drink out of the toilets,” she continued. “This was them on their GOOD behavior in front of members of Congress.”

Just left the 1st CBP facility. I see why CBP officers were being so physically &sexually threatening towards me. Officers were keeping women in cells w/ no water & had told them to drink out of the toilets. This was them on their GOOD behavior in front of members of Congress. — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) July 1, 2019

Talking with a reporter after her visit, AOC said, “In that last facility, I was not safe from the officers in that facility.”

Ocasio-Cortez supposedly saw people drinking from toilets and forced her way into a cell where a woman described the treatment of detainees as “psychological warfare,” saying officers are “waking them at odd hours for no reason, calling them wh*res, etc.”

Now I’ve seen the inside of these facilities. It’s not just the kids. It’s everyone. People drinking out of toilets, officers laughing in front of members Congress. I brought it up to their superiors. They said “officers are under stress & act out sometimes.” No accountability. — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) July 1, 2019

After I forced myself into a cell w/ women&began speaking to them, one of them described their treatment at the hands of officers as “psychological warfare” – waking them at odd hours for no reason, calling them wh*res, etc. Tell me what about that is due to a “lack of funding?” — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) July 1, 2019

California Rep. Judy Chu (D) echoed AOC’s allegations, saying “One woman was told if she wanted water, just to drink from a toilet.”

“If you want water, just drink from a toilet.” That’s what border patrol told one thirsty woman we met on today’s #DemsAtTheBorder trip. These are the same CBP personnel who threatened to throw burritos at members of Congress. Changes must be made. #DontLookAway pic.twitter.com/dW34DRduDA — Judy Chu (@RepJudyChu) July 1, 2019

Daily Mail political editor David Martosko suggested the possibility of “drinking from the toilet” meaning the toilets have water fountains on them, such as the commodes seen in this Tucson, Arizona holding facility.

I haven't seen photo of the Clint, TX facilities that @AOC described today, but it would be interesting if "drinking from the toilet" meant drinking from an attached sink marked "potable water" — like this image from a CBP holding facility in Tuscon (filed in federal court). pic.twitter.com/uDbhy1GPOa — David Martosko (@dmartosko) July 1, 2019

In a total 180 from the claims being made by AOC and Judy Chu, the Washington Examiner reports two witnesses saw Ocasio-Cortez “scream at federal law enforcement agents ‘in a threatening manner.'”

“She comes out screaming at our agents, right at the beginning [of the tour] … Crying and screaming and yelling,” a witness said.

The group of 14 House Democrats and their aides left the El Paso, Texas Border Patrol facility and will visit another facility located in Clint, Texas where AOC says “the Trump admin was denying children toothpaste and soap,” despite that claim being refuted by a top Border Patrol official.

Now I’m on my way to Clint, where the Trump admin was denying children toothpaste and soap. This has been horrifying so far. It is hard to understate the enormity of the problem. We’re talking systemic cruelty w/ a dehumanizing culture that treats them like animals. — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) July 1, 2019
