"I as a woman of color do not feel safe here," the New York Democrat told a female agent during her July 1, 2019, visit, according to government documents obtained by the Daily Signal through a Freedom of Information Act request.
Ocasio-Cortez went on "to personally admonish and berate" the agent after claiming the agent took a selfie with the congresswoman in the background.
The unnamed agent, however, denied the accusation of taking a selfie to her supervisor and in a memo that day. Her colleagues also denied seeing her take a photo, and her supervisor found no evidence of a picture on her phone.
AOC SCREAMED AT BORDER PATROL AGENTS IN 'THREATENING MANNER' DURING TOUR: WITNESSES
"Rep. Ocasio-Cortez abruptly voiced an allegation that a female agent outside of the REDACTED had just taken a selfie with Rep. Ocasio-Cortez in the background," the agent in charge said in a memo dated July 2 and sent to the acting agent in charge. "Rep. Ocasio-Cortez not only verbally voiced this concern, she became agitated and animated as she began to bang on the glass, pointing and screaming at the agent."
The female agent "did admit to having her cell phone in her hand and showed me the current image on the screen," the agent in charge wrote. "The image appeared to me to be web-based and had nothing to do with interior photos of the detention area."
Ocasio-Cortez went on to accuse the agent of "unprofessional conduct and asking if she will have future contact with children," the agent in charge wrote the next day.
The socialist representative also tweeted about the visit after the Washington Examiner reported on the incident in 2019.
"And to these CBP officers saying they felt 'threatened' by me — They were literally discussing making a GoFundMe for an officer who attacked my on my tour. They confiscated my phone, and they were all armed. I'm 5'4".They're just upset I exposed their inhumane behavior," she tweeted.
Ocasio-Cortez's office did not immediately respond to the Washington Examiner's request for comment on the documents.

Is the woman clinically insane?
Anything to deflect from the insanity of the 2021 GOP eh..... Even a two year old story.
You might then take comfort in this oldie but a goodie....... "But her emails!"
You might want to click on the link and learn that the story is recent.
If only everyone had that ability to click on a link.................
Story is recent, what it is reporting on is 2 years old.
Like FLYNAVY1 said, "Anything to deflect from the insanity of the 2021 GOP eh". Rehashing a 2 year old story.
I know what the article says, I seeded it.
if YOU had, perhaps you would have learned that new documents were obtained related to the story. Of course, one would have to read the story to learn that.
And people really need to learn what the fuck a deflection is. The story is about AOC. Any topics YOU bring up that aren't related to her are what deflections are.
Pretty funny shit coming from a bunch that can't wait to drag Trump into most conversations!
Then you KNEW it was about something from 2 years ago.
Who cares? Incident from 2 years ago is not related to anything current.
The entire story is a deflection.
Trump inserts himself into the conversations, we just call him out for it.
That fact doesn't seem to be in dispute, so what is the poiint of it?
Two years is not that long ago. Hell, Democrats were still crying about Trump beating Hillary for years afterwards. And she is still a Congresswoman.
If the entire story is about AOC and her reprehensible actions, what the FUCK Is it deflecting FROM????????????????????????????????
That is just pure ignorance.
Let us all know when the left move on from Trump.
Hell, I don't think any of us will be alive when the left finally moves on from Trump!
Why should they when the right won't....
Of course. All they have to complain about is old news and the border.
Okay, maybe you can explain how an article about AOC is a deflection.
Deflection from WHAT?????????
The point is that it just provides further evidence that the entire story is nothing but a deflection from the current crap republicans are doing.
Trump brings up Hillary at every rally. It is he, not the democrats that keep bringing her up.
You have been told this multiple times already, perhaps you should try reading other people's comments instead of blindly responding.
We agree on the status of the seeded article.
Wow... When is the right going to move on from that loser? Not for a long time according to Lindsey Graham.
I know you can't see it, but others can.
Every article unfavorable to Democrats is NOT a deflection.
That is just incredibly stupid.
Is an article about the bombings in Israel a deflection from Biden's failed border policies? Of course not, sane intelligent people know better.
It sounds so childish to mindlessly chant "It's a deflection" in every article unfavorable to Democrats,
He actually went on the talk shows and said donald is their leader and anyone that went against him would feel the wrath...
And it is Democrats that cannot stop thinking about him?
Laughable.
If they want Democrats to stop talking about him maybe they should stop worshipping at his alter.
Sounds like a deflection from Biden's failed border policies.
Sloooooowwwwww news day for the Washington Examiner
Then you should delete Ronin2's comment since he included it in this discussion.
I do not have the ability to delete comments, and I don't seed articles where anyone other than the site moderators can.
So, you don't know how to discuss the topic of a thread, right? You can only attack seeder/source?
What topic? Another installment of a lame two year old rightwing circle jerk about how dumb a first term member of Congress was or is?
Sorry I'm not sorry that didn't all go your way
I will be... you're all WAY older than me!
No more so than the millions that believe the election was stolen which includes a very large number of Republican politicians.
Oh, and didn't you just say something about deflections?
LMMFAO at the sheer hypocrisy!
Or the millions of democrats who believe Putin tampered with vote tallies in 2016
Imagine thinking Democrats don't believe in election conspiracies.
Amazing how often that happens.
No, didn't say anything in this article about deflections.
You asked a question which I answered. If you don't like the answer don't ask the question. Pretty simple premise. LMAO
My seed, I'll ask whatever I damn well please. YOU have the option to answer or ignore.
Pretty simple.
LMAO.
I imagine that some do but that wasn't part of the question or the response so your record of doing the squirrel thing is intact.
Of course, it's your seed but if one asks a question they should expect an answer.
That's very simple.
LMAO
Carry on
Some do? Seems the FBI and Mueller's nutty conspiracies are already forgotten.
And if you answer, you can expect responses. Don't like it, don't respond.
I don't care how you respond, even though your response was pretty pathetic, but not unexpected.
Have a great rest of the day spinning.
And you have a great day ignoring reality!
imagine that some do
Like 2/3
't part of the question or the response so your record of
You are spinning more than a prima ballerina.
She certainly is a total dweeb that's for sure!
2 year old squirrels are very scary ... @!@

Taunting [sandy-2021492]
I took it as a tickle and poured another Scotch.
This was from two years ago...
Yes, the original incident occurred two years ago.
And now, new documents have been released. That is what the story is about,
People learn that shit when they read the article.
Your point? Obviously not anything on topic.
Actually, this statement in the seed makes it on topic.
So you see, despite the seeder's claim that this in NEW news, the source states clearly that the incident was reported 2 YEARS ago.
Sadly, distracting shinny objects seem to be !EXTRAS! for desperate Trumpists these days...
sometimes people read the article and learn something new.
not everyone obviously.
Sometimes seeders make claims about the content of their seeds that are false.
Sometimes a seed clearly proves those claims to be false and seeders admit that they were wrong.
Not all seeders obviously.
I haven't made any false claims about the article, so you are barking up the wrong tree, again.
Oh but you DID Tex. You said:
I block quoted from YOUR seed:
The Washington Examiner is just rinsing and repeating !AOC! click bait and you bit hard...
You MIGHT want to do a wee bit of research all by yourself and learn WHEN this story was published.
Or not, I don't give a damn.
The INCIDENT occurred two years ago. The papers were released RECENTLY, which is what the article (which seemingly, you never even fucking read before yapping) was about .
In fact, had you bothered to read AND comprehend my posts, you would have seen that I acknowledged the incident took place two years ago. See posts 1.1.4, 1.1.7, and 3.1.
Now, I can certainly point all this out to you since you seem to have missed it, but I can't understand it for you.
Oh, BTFW, here is the VERY FIRST LINE:
Read it and weep, but don't bother me with this trivial crap any more.
You MIGHT want to acknowledge that the SOURCE of the story states that they reported on the incident 2 YEARS ago.
An incident we reported 2 YEARS ago happened.
I have explained it to you.
What you do with it isn't my business.
ignorance must be blissful.
Jesus Christ, are you just being deliberately obtuse now??????????
From the article -----AGAIN (sigh)
You've attempted to obfuscate. You failed.
Good. I'll keep pointing out the NEW news you posted is OLD news.
I'll bow to your expertise on the subject.
Rinse and repeat Tex. Still OLD news.
Gee, I am really, really sorry that you can't quite seem to grasp that YES, THE INCIDENT HAPPENED TWO FUCKING YEARS AGO, WHICH ABSOLUTELY NO ONE HAS DENIED.
NEWLY RELEASED DOCUMENTS seems to be something you don't understand.
Like I stated, I can not understand it FOR you.
Wow....I wouldn't have thought I'd see someone not understand what the word "old" means today.
But Dulay proved me wrong.
new and old are apparently advanced concepts for some.
Deliberate obtuseness seems to be the forte.
I refuse to believe that anyone couldn't grasp the fundamentals if they even tried at all to understand.
Take heart Sean, you still haven't seen that.
Nothing NEW there.
If only people were smart enough to click on a link and see that the article is very, very recent.
If only................................................
Yeah, what your link is talking about was from 2019. Find something at least from this year.
Maybe you should read it before commenting further. That way people won't think your comments are foolish [Deleted]
Yawn, skimmed it and meh. Slow day huh?
Not a slow day, just a day filled with slow people unable to grasp the article.
Uh huh.
And to think that this woman is the "future" of the Democratic Party along with her little "squad".
Good times!
Both parties have their 'oddities', should we start with the top of the GoP and work our way down?
Maybe you should start a seed on THAT topic instead of lamely attempting to derail my seed.
Almost as comical as AOC are seeing the people who obsess about Donald Trump complain about a seed dealing with newly released information.
These hypocrites are simply incapable of seeing that.
Interesting to me that the usual suspects have shown up to shit on the article, but not a single one has stood up for nor condemned their little media darling for anything that was reported.
In fact, not a one can comment on what she did.
They have proven they can count.
When I read that, I got an image of a horse tapping it's hoof!
Click--one
Click, click, two....
So, the yawn documents:
Which accurately prove the facts laid out in the article.
Funny that people condone AOC's shitty behavior.
What it proves is that this article is about as inane as things can get.
Well, we are talking about AOC, so you may actually be right about the inane thingy.
Give her 15 years ... maybe she'll catch up to Marjorie Taylor Greene.
If she lasts 15 years, I pity the Democrats!
I pity republicans every time Ms. Greene lasts 15 seconds.
Uh huh, sure you do.
Seems the media and social internet darling has a very thin skin to go along with her very thin intelligence.
I doubt she feels safe anywhere as she can't get away from herself.
Yeah, she really felt "unsafe" while she yelled at the very people she felt made her unsafe.
Liberal logic........lmao!
