AOC has only tweeted about Child Migrant Detention twice under Biden
Ocasio-Cortez went viral in 2019 after previously unseen photos of her crying near a migrant detention center were released
Rep.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has only tweeted about the situation at the border a handful of times since
President Biden took office, compared to her dozens of tweets about the border -- including accusations that the GOP constructed "mass concentration camps" -- during the Trump administration.
"This is not okay, never has been okay, never will be okay - no matter the administration or party," Ocasio-Cortez wrote on
Twitter on Feb. 23 in response to a Washington Post story titled "First migrant facility for children opens under Biden."

During the Trump administration, Ocasio-Cortez tweeted about the terms "cages," "concentration camps" and "internment camps" in relation to the border nearly two dozen times between February 2018 and July 2019.
