Democrats continue to defend and support the migrant caravan that seeks to invade our country. As migrants attack Border Patrol agents, throwing rocks and bottles, liberal lawmakers compare them to real victims. Newly-elected Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez compared them to Jews fleeing the Holocaust. However, Senator Lindsey Graham had a simple response.
Representative-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez constantly embarrasses herself. Honestly, she needs a staffer to manage her Twitter account for her. Because time and again, the woman posts things that even a grade school student wouldn’t.
Throughout the midterm elections, she showed her utter ignorance on numerous topics. She didn’t have a plan to pay for universal healthcare. She was woefully uninformed about politics. And she admitted she didn’t have a clue about the Israel-Palestine situation.
Still, she got elected, thanks to the fact she ran in a deeply-liberal district in New York. Now, the woman is going to help make laws for the next two years. It’s a scary thought.
Like the rest of the Democratic Party, she is showing her support for thousands of strangers who want to invade our country. The migrant caravans are mostly made up of people who seek economic refugee in the United States.
Organized by immigration activists, these migrants think they can simply enter our country, no problem. This, despite the fact that few of them qualify for asylum (given they are not actual refugees from a war-torn country).
Many Americans believe these caravans are just a stunt, orchestrated by liberals. Everyone who is honest agrees that they should not be allowed into the country.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez took to Twitter to show her support for these migrants. In her tweet, she foolishly compared them to Jews fleeing the Holocaust. That insensitive, tone-deaf, and inaccurate statement sparked the anger of many Americans, including Senator Lindsey Graham. He decided to give the new Representative some helpful advice.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) tweeted at Representative-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) that she should visit the U.S. Holocaust Museum to educate herself about the differences between Jewish refugees from Nazi Germany and the migrant caravan trying to cross the U.S.-Mexico border.
On Sunday, Ocasio-Cortez had tweeted that the migrants — whom she prefers to call “asylum-seekers,” though few would qualify — should receive the same consideration that Jewish refugees from Nazi Germany received during the Holocaust.
Asking to be considered a refugee & applying for status isn’t a crime.
It wasn’t for Jewish families fleeing Germany.
It wasn’t for targeted families fleeing Rwanda.
It wasn’t for communities fleeing war-torn Syria.
And it isn’t for those fleeing violence in Central America. https://t.co/qhv7Rr1itn— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@Ocasio2018) November 25, 2018

One of the great tragedies in the years leading up to WWII was when liberal President FDR turned away Jews fleeing the nightmare going on in Europe. Many of them were forced to return to Germany, where they were killed in the Holocaust.
Once again, Ocasio-Cortez embarrasses herself by revealing she knows nothing about American history. It was a Democrat who refused to help Jews when they were facing death.
One shipload on a ship named the St. Louis actually arrived but were sent back to Europe. Those who went back to mainland Europe then largely did die in the Holocaust. The U.S. took no part in the Kindertransport that saved tens of thousands of children… to the shame of the administration of the time, that of the great liberal President Franklin Roosevelt. It’s thought this resulted in 20,000 extra deaths. [Source: Washington Examiner]
Today, thousands of Central American migrants want to enter the United States. Not because they are fleeing war or death, but because they want to skip over our immigration process. They want to enjoy the economic prosperity of the United States but refuse to follow our laws and rules. Millions of immigrants enter our country, willing to obey our requirements. Yet this group thinks they can bypass all of that by forcing their way in.
Apparently, Ocasio-Cortez can’t tell the difference between Jews fleeing extermination and freeloaders. Lindsey Graham offered some sage advice for the out-of-touch Democrat.
I recommend she take a tour of the Holocaust Museum in DC.
Might help her better understand the differences between the Holocaust and the caravan in Tijuana. https://t.co/05vCexiClE

Democrats will say or do anything to justify their toxic policies. They have welcomed illegal aliens into our country for years, hoping they will support them come election time. Democrats have disgraced our immigration laws and every citizen, just to win elections.
Now, they are hoping a massive caravan of invaders can just bypass our border security and system. They must be dreaming. Ocasio-Cortez needs to go back to school.
