AOC questioned Homeland Security head Kevin McAleenan in hearings July 18.
“Did you see the reports mocking migrant children’s deaths?” she asked.
He did. “Did you see the post planning physical harm to myself and Congresswoman Escobar?” she continued. McAleenan said he had seen that as well.
“Did you see the images of officers circulating Photoshopped images of my violent rape?” Ocasio-Cortez asked.
McAleenan said yes.
“Do you think that the policy of child separation could have contributed to a dehumanizing culture within CBP that contributes and kind of spills over to other areas of conduct?” Ocasio-Cortez asked.
McAleenan said that there was not a “dehumanizing culture” at the agency.
“So you don’t think having 10,000 officers in a violent, racist group sharing rape memes of members of Congress points to any concern of a dehumanized culture?” she said.
