AOC, Kellyanne Conway trade blows over the treatment of migrants in detention

WASHINGTON – Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and White House adviser Kellyanne Conway traded blows on Twitter Tuesday afternoon over the treatment of migrants in federal custody on the southern U.S. border.

In a Tuesday morning Fox and Friends interview, Conway said that Ocasio-Cortez's claim that detained migrant women had drunk from toilets in a Border Patrol facility was "outrageous."

Ocasio-Cortez was part of a congressional delegation that traveled to the southern U.S. border to tour Border Patrol facilities Monday where children and families had reportedly been held in poor conditions. After her visit, she'd tweeted saying that "Officers were keeping women in cells w/ no water & had told them to drink out of the toilets."

Ocasio-Cortez later responded to Conway on Twitter, accusing the White House adviser of defending and muddying the "clear and indefensible."

"I drink out of the toilet all the time," says Kellyanne Conway, "If it's good enough for my dog it's good enough for me."

Conway is a proven liar, lawbreaker, and has zero conscience. She is a full-time campaign spokeperson. She was tasked with defending the indefensible so President Rapist Asshole wouldn't.

AOC, social media star that she is, knows when to disengage from an exchange with such a person.
