Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) speaks to the press following a congressional delegation's visit to the Clint migrant facility in Texas. The congresswoman railed against conditions at the Texas facility and said she herself did not feel "safe" in the presence of border patrol officers. "In that last facility, I was not safe from the officers in that facility," Ocasio-Cortez said Monday afternoon. AOC talked about "abuse in the facilities" and how people were told to drink water out of the toilet. The Congresswoman drove off as a reporter asked if she witnessed the atrocity:" #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

A report shows the disgusting, sexist, and racist memes shared by Border Patrol agents in a Facebook group. John Iadarola breaks it down on The Damage Report.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez engaged in oral sex with a detained migrant, according to screenshots of their postings. In one exchange, group members responded with indifference and wisecracks to the post of a news story about a 16-year-old Guatemalan migrant who died in May while in custody at a Border Patrol station in Weslaco, Texas. One member posted a GIF of Elmo with the quote, “Oh well.” Another responded with an image and the words “If he dies, he dies.” Created in August 2016, the Facebook group is called “I’m 10-15” and boasts roughly 9,500 members from across the country. (10-15 is Border Patrol code for “aliens in custody.”) The group described itself, in an online introduction, as a forum for “funny” and “serious” discussion about work with the patrol. “Remember you are never alone in this family,” the introduction said." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

An extreme hail storm has struck Guadalajara Mexico. John Iadarola breaks it down on The Damage Report.

Some immediately pointed the finger at climate change. “Hail more than a meter high, and then we wonder if climate change exists,” tweeted Enrique Alfaro Ramírez, governor of Jalisco, the state in southwestern Mexico where Guadalajara is. But scientists aren’t so sure of the link. “One good picture often leads people to go, ‘This is unprecedented,’” said John Allen, a meteorologist at Central Michigan University in Mount Pleasant. “It looks impressive, but we’ve seen similar events in other parts of the world fairly recently. … I really don’t think we have a way to say conclusively that an event like this is attributable to climate change.” #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

Reports of concrete milkshakes thrown by left-wing protesters in Portland spread like wildfire in right-wing circles, but is there any truth to them? John Iadarola and Parker Molloy break it down on The Damage Report. Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport Read more here: https://www.mediamatters.org/blog/2019/07/01/how-conservative-figures-turned-flimsy-rumor-about-concrete-milkshakes-portland-meme/224103 "Over the weekend, far-right and anti-fascist protesters clashed in downtown Portland, OR. Among the controversies was an attack carried out against Quillette editor Andy Ngo, caught on film by Oregonian reporter Jim Ryan. The June 29 footage shows black bloc demonstrators punching and kicking Ngo while others throw milkshakes at him. The trend of throwing milkshakes at far-right politicians and activists originated earlier this year in the United Kingdom, but has more recently made its way over to the United States. Supporters of the practice see it as a way to humiliate political opponents and make them fear public organizing. Critics correctly note that this is a form of battery but have also warned that this tactic could quickly escalate into more damaging, permanent attacks involving acid or other corrosive chemicals. According to some on the far-right, their worst fears of such an escalation were realized during the attack on Ngo. In reality, there’s not any actual evidence of that -- and that’s a big problem." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) a platform to impress viewers and position themselves as credible opponents against President Donald Trump, according to a set of new HuffPost/YouGov polls. In surveys taken immediately after the first and second debates in Miami, Warren and Harris were widely seen as outperforming in their respective appearances, eroding former Vice President Joe Biden’s perceived edge as the most electable candidate." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

I’m actually a little surprised that apparently no previous book has had that title. The reason may be that other writers have been more humble than Sunkara, the founding editor and publisher of Jacobin magazine, and less willing to elicit inevitable comparisons between their work and Marx’s. For no writer, and certainly not Sunkara, will fare well under such a comparison. 41eQaZRTc7L._SX321_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg But I don’t want to be too harsh on Sunkara, whose magazine has performed useful services for the American left. Sunkara is an effective popularizer and, in an age of mass ignorance, there’s much to be said for popularizations. The book is written for the uninitiated, and if it succeeds in piquing young readers’ interest in socialism, then it has served its purpose. The title is a misnomer, however, for the book is no manifesto. It is essentially a critical history of socialism with a couple of chapters at the beginning and the end on the present and possible future of the left." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), while also blasting his own network for its “cowardly” policy limiting on-air personalities from engaging in political discussion. “What happened last night, this felt un-American,” Le Batard, whose parents are from Cuba, said on his radio show Thursday. “It's not the America that my parents aimed to get for us, for exiles, for brown people," he continued. "There's a racial division in this country that's being instigated by the president and we here at ESPN haven't had the stomach for that fight because Jemele [Hill] did some things on Twitter, and you saw what happened after that and then here, all of a sudden, nobody talks politics on anything unless they use one of these sports figures as a meat shield in the most cowardly possible way to discuss these subjects." "We don't talk about what is happening unless there's some sort of weak, cowardly sports angle that we can run it through when sports has always been the place where this stuff changes," Le Batard added.” #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

Crowd chants “Send Her Back” as Trump attacks Rep. Ilhan Omar at a rally in Greenville, North Carolina. John Iadarola breaks it down on The Damage Report.

Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is a Somali refugee who became a US citizen. In November, she was elected to Congress by an overwhelming majority of voters in her Minneapolis district. Her story embodies elements of the American dream. But Omar is also an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump. And last Sunday, Trump lashed out at her and other Democratic congresswomen of color in a string of tweets in which he told them to “go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came.” The subtext, in Omar’s case, was clear — the president was suggesting she go back to Somalia. During Trump’s rally on Wednesday evening in Greenville, North Carolina — following two days in which Trump repeated the racist attacks he made against Omar and other Democratic congresswomen of color — Trump fans expressed their full-throated agreement with the president. After Trump spent some time smearing Omar, going as far as to baselessly suggest she supports al-Qaeda, chants of “send her back” broke out. Trump basked in them. The moment arguably represented a new low in Trump’s long history of racial demagoguery.” #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks
