President of the National Border Patrol Council called out Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Monday for her claims about her visit to several U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) sites housing migrants.
Ocasio-Cortez continues to refer to the CBP facilities as “concentration camps” despite the massive backlash from Jewish leaders, Holocaust survivors, the U.S. Holocaust Museum, and Israel’s Yad Vashem.
AOC tweeted women had been forced to drink water from toilets, among other atrocities:

Speaking to Breitbart News, Judd explained how he was furious at Ocasio-Cortez’s claims, and pushed back passionately.
Judd added that cameras that film the facilities would reveal that Ocasio-Cortez was lying:
“I’m calling on CBP to release that footage, so they clearly show that she was treated with the utmost dignity and respect,” Judd said.
“Nobody is forced to drink out of a toilet, and nobody is told to drink out of a toilet,” Judd explained.
“Its completely and totally a baseless and ridiculous allegation and frankly it needs to be investigated, and she needs to be exposed.”
According to other reports, Ocasio-Cortez was rude to law enforcement personnel and had misrepresented information she learned.
The Washington Examiner specifically disputed Ocasio-Cortez's claims that a woman was forced to drink toilet water.
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.

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.
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?”

Judd mentioned a previous statement by Ocasio-Cortez in which she stated that she would rather be morally correct than factually accurate.
“How can you have the moral high ground if you are going to throw facts out the window and spew falsehoods?” he asked.
“And that’s what she is doing.”
“She gives absolutely no contexts to these allegations that she is making and by not giving context she is trying to paint a false narrative and a false picture, and she needs to be held accountable for that.”
Judd said Ocasio-Cortez was misleading the nation by painting a false picture.
When asked if AOC's claim that migrants were subjected to “psychological warfare” by officials waking them at odd hours and calling them derogative names, Judd responded:
“Where is the proof? It’s very easy to throw out these allegations and say this is what’s happening.”
“Let the cameras speak …The cameras will prove her wrong, and they will prove that she is being false.”
Earlier this month, a Polish member of parliament invited AOC to see real concentration camps run by Nazi Germany during World War II, which she refused.
Member of the Polish parliament, Dominik Tarczynski, a posted a letter to the lawmaker:
“I write to you out of distress in having learned of your recent statements regarding concentration camps."
“As you should be aware, the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (Nazi) who led Germany, were responsible for the darkest period in my country’s and our whole continent’s history by devising a chain of concentration camps in order to exterminate those who they believed were subhuman, or a threat to their imperialistic machinations—this included both Jewish Poles and non-Jewish Poles and as a result we lost six million of our citizens,” he added.
Ocasio Cortez's credibility continues to plummet as she is repeatedly called out for spreading falsehoods about migrant detention centers.
