Ocasio-Cortez continues to compare border conditions to 'concentration camps,' critics accuse her of misinformation campaign
U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., has sparked controversy in recent weeks with arguably increasingly inflammatory rhetoric in her conversations about the conditions at the U.S.-Mexico border. Despite coming under fire last month for saying the U.S.government is "running concentration camps on our southern border," Ocasio-Cortez once again made the same comparison on Twitter on Tuesday. On Monday, after traveling to a border detention center in El Paso, Texas, with almost a dozen members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, she blasted border officials as “violent” and “inhumane” while claiming agents forced detained migrant women and children to drink toilet water.


Current and former immigration officials rejected the congresswoman's allegations and accused her of pulling a political stunt. Hispanic pastors who toured the same facility Ocasio-Cortez visited said the conditions at the detention center were "drastically different" than what she described. They said they were "shocked at the misinformation of the crisis at the border." The controversy over AOC's latest comments come as afederal judge ruled Tuesday that the Trump administration cannot categorically detain asylum seekers while they pursue their cases.


Navy SEAL rejoices in not guilty verdict
Navy SEAL Edward Gallagher said he feels thankful and vindicatedafter a jury on Tuesday found him not guilty on almost all charges he was facing, including murder and attempted murder, in the 2017 killing of a teenage ISIS war prisoner in Iraq. "I'm happy and I'm thankful," Gallagher told reporters after the verdict, as he joked with his legal team that "it's Independence Day," his freedom coming days before the Fourth of July. Jurors did find him guilty of the seventh charge, posing for a photo with a corpse, considered the least egregious of the crimes, which carries a maximum prison sentence of four months. Having already served seven months in confinement ahead of the trial, Gallagher, a Bronze Star recipient, is expected to go home a free man after his sentencing, his defense lawyers said.



Trump detractors sound the alarm as military vehicles roll in for July 4 celebrations
Appearing on "Deadline: White House," MSNBC's Joy Reid insisted on Tuesday that President Trump is using the upcoming Fourth of July "Salute to America" celebration as a "threat" to Americans who oppose him. Trump has longed talked about showing off America's military capabilities in celebration of Independence Day, and now his vision is coming to fruition as tanks arrive in Washington, D.C., ahead of Thursday's festivities. Reid claimed that Trump aspires to be a "mini" North Korean leader Kim Jong Un or Russian President Vladimir Putin. According to Fox News' Geraldo Rivera, these kind of complaints are the ramblings of Trump haters.

Still, as preparations were underway Trump's July 4 celebration, a few problems emerged along the way as military vehicles were hauled into the capital city. On Tuesday, a flatbed carrying the tanks was apparently unable to clear an underpass, according to photos tweeted by a Politico reporter. A crane was later employed to resolve the issue. Retired U.S. Army Gen. Thomas Spoehr, director of the Heritage Foundation’s Center for National Defense, told the Daily Reporter that some local roads are ill-equipped to handle the weight of the tanks.
