Retired ICE official John Fabbricatore posted photos this week showing illegal immigrants detained in cages at Joe Biden’s border in Arizona.
“Hundreds in custody on top of what was caught last night,” Fabbricatore stated.
Border Patrol is “overwhelmed, and this administration is letting this happen with no support!” he added.

Meanwhile, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has remained silent on the issue at Biden’s border.
Of course, AOC is known for her outrage when the government put people in cages, particularly when she accused Trump of doing so.
When AOC visited the Texas border in 2018, she was so horrified she showcased her now-famous photo shoot of her looking distressed.
Before @AOC hit the national stage & was just a fairly unknown House candidate frm NYC,she took time awy frm her campaign & came dwn to #Tornillo to protest the #tentcity housing migrant children.I made these previously unpublished fotos a yr ago today. #elpaso #aoc #onassignment pic.twitter.com/SWyyI1XVt9

She then accused President Donald Trump of running “concentration camps” at the border.
Other Democratic lawmakers like Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland and Rep. Peter Welch of Vermont also went to the border to tell stories about “kids in cages.”
But where are they now?
The shock and anger were political and meant to make Trump look bad, not because they really cared about people in cages.
Social media users were quick to call out the hypocrisy:

“Hundreds of people kept in cages, outside in record heat. Media + Dems no longer care,” conservative commentator Stephen L. Miller said.
