Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the 29-year-old former bartender turned member of Congress, ignorantly announced on Monday that President Trump “has established concentration camps on the southern border.”
“This administration has established concentration camps on the southern border of the United States for immigrants, where they are being brutalized with dehumanizing conditions and dying. This is not hyperbole. It is the conclusion of expert analysis,” she wrote on Twitter, citing a magazine article.

AOC made the ridiculous and offensive comparison for political gain.
Her tweet was so ignorant the Auschwitz Museum invited Ocasio-Cortez and MSNBC hack Chris Hayes to get educated on the horrors of real concentration camps.

@chrislhayes Please consider following @AuschwitzMuseum where everyday we commemorate and educate about the tragic human history of #Auschwitz.

On Thursday Polish lawmaker Dominik Tarczynski wrote a letter inviting Ocasio-Cortez to Poland to study the concentration camps for real under the Nazi regime, “So you can see first hand how different it is from your immigration processing centers on the US Border.”
This is an amazing letter by Mr. Tarczynski!
On Saturday Rep. Steve King invited the young socialist Ocasio-Cortez to visit Hitler’s concentration camps so she can learn something.
.@AOC I went to Auschwitz & Birkenau with Eddie Mausberg & Jonny Daniels with In the Depths. I went with a deep understanding of the Shoah and had a profound personal experience. Please accept their offer. https://t.co/9tjqgdP6N5

In response Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez BLASTED Rep. King and accused him of meeting with Neo-Nazi groups (a lie) and accused him and others of manipulating her ignorance for political gain.
What a sick woman.
The last time you went on this trip it was reported that you also met w/ fringe Austrian neo-Nazi groups to talk shop.
So I’m going to have to decline your invite. But thank you for revealing to all how transparently the far-right manipulates these moments for political gain. https://t.co/TQkaPEESoD
