New York Democratic Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Sunday compared members of the migrant caravan attempting to illegally enter the United States to Jews fleeing Nazi Germany during the Holocaust.

As members of the caravan rushed the border at the San Ysidro port of entry, reportedly throwing rocks and Molotov cocktails at Border Patrol agents, the self-described Socialist tweeted out, “Asking to be considered a refugee & applying for status isn’t a crime.”

U.S. Customs and Border Patrol closed the port of entry in response and reportedly used tear gas to disperse the crowd of migrants.

Other reports say many in the caravan are planning on entering the U.S. illegally and have no plans to ever apply for asylum.
