Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is asked to weigh in on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's (D-NY) use of the term "concentration camps" to describe holding centers for migrants seeking U.S. asylum.



"There are camps and people are being concentrated," Omar said Friday. "This is very simple. I don't even know why this is a controversial thing for her to say. We have to really truthfully speak about what's taking place."
