Conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh raged against Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on his radio show, accusing the New York Democrat of lying about conditions in border detention facilities and quipping that toilet water is a step up from what migrants are accustomed to drinking.
Limbaugh, in a segment reported by Media Matters, referred to the congresswoman as little AOC, and her colleagues that visited the border facilities as a gaggle of hysterical women lying their way through that border visit.
Now she runs down there and starts trashing and lying about conditions at the border and the people who administer the people who come into this country illegally, Limbaugh continued. Flat-out lies that the detainees are being forced to drink out of toilets. The border patrol and ICE people are denying this and even this gaggle of lunatics with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez admit they havent seen it. There arent any witnesses who have actually seen people being forced to drink water out of a toilet.
But my friends, based on what were told about the circumstances where these people are fleeing, maybe toilet water is a step up for some of them, based on what the left is telling us their homelands are like, he concluded, before directing his rage towards Nikes decision to nix their Betsy Ross flag sneaker.
Ocasio-Cortez and several colleagues said after touring facilities in Texas that women detained said they had gone weeks without showers and were told to drink water from toilets when sinks broke.

(15,322 posts)boycott any company that advertises on any station that carries even one second of this shit, or mention the over 100 colleges and universities that support this shit by broadcasting their sports programming on stations that broadcast NOTHING but this shit during the remaining 165 hours of the week.
Why, if I even suggest that something could be done to shut this ignorant brainwashing shit down, dozens of DUers will tell me how unamerican I'm being.
Hate Radio... MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE...has given us Donnie Dollhands aa the leader of the Free world.
Guess we'll just have to live with it. I'd hate to do anything to disrupt their racist hatefest!

So who's lying, you piece of slime?
