Putting illegals in cages in 110 degree weather is cool again. No objection from AOC

WHY, ARIZ. — A few dozen migrants sat under the sun and sweltering temperatures that would reach a high of 117 degrees as they were detained Saturday in an outdoor cage at the Ajo Border Patrol Station.

The majority of migrants sat beneath the shade of the large white canopy as others stood beneath the sun. From the observation point, many of the migrants appeared to be men, but it was difficult to discern migrants’ gender.

Migrant advocates and elected officials decried the outdoor caging of migrants, in the heat describing it as “cruel” and “inhumane.”

“I was horrified, but I’m sadly not surprised because this treatment of migrants is nothing new,” said Janice Rosenberg, a volunteer with the Ajo Samaritans humanitarian group.

The station sets in rugged terrain in the Sonoran Desert, a deadly area that has claimed the lives of thousands of migrants over the past two decades. The discovery of the cage comes during a wave of record-breaking heat across Arizona.

With Congress out of session, doesn’t AOC have the time to go to Arizona for a photo op outside THAT fence? Why isn’t there as much outrage as was pretended to exist over the fake accusations of Border Patrol officers whipping illegal immigrants? Isn’t it racist to treat illegal immigrants like caged animals?

Maybe idiot Biden should have prepared better for the flood of illegal immigrants he lured into the country, but seeing his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, planning is not his strong suit.
