Liberal site rips Holocaust Museum for its 'dreadful' intervention in 'concentration camps' debate
By Joseph A. Wulfsohn | Fox News

 

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez won't back down on comparing border detention facilities to concentration camps

The progressive freshman Democrat lawmaker says she will never apologize for the remark after receiving criticism from both sides of the aisle.

A liberal news site is getting blowback on Monday over a piece denouncing the Holocaust Museum's "dreadful" involvement in the national debate over comparisons of U.S. border facilities to concentration camps.

Last week, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-NY, created a firestorm when she claimed that the Trump administration was "running concentration camps" along the southern border. When critics slammed her for invoking a term associated with the Holocaust, Ocasio-Cortez stressed that she didn't refer to "Nazi" death camps despite echoing the "never again" saying and calling the Trump presidency "fascist." The U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum released a statement "unequivocally rejecting" the analogy between the detention centers holding migrants and concentration camps.
