"Aunt Lidia".... Border Patrol chief was in secret Facebook group that mocked dead kids





Carla Provost, the acting chief of U.S. Customs and Border Protection under Trump, was a member of a secret Facebook group where vile and bigoted posts mocking migrants were frequently exchanged.

The Intercept reported Provost's involvement with the group on Friday. Trump put Provost in charge of the agency in July of last year.

One post in the notorious group mocked the haunting image of a father and his two-year-old daughter who were found drowned in the Rio Grande. "Have y'all ever seen floaters this clean," a member of Provost's group wrote.

Yep, that’s her:

she will probably get a medal.

I think every department head in this WH has connections to white nationalist groups. The "swamp" that trump said he drained, is now a cesspool full of the "worst" kind of monsters that trump could find.

From Wikipedia:
She was accused of taking souvenirs from the skin of murdered inmates with distinctive tattoos, although those claims were rejected at both of her trials. She was known as "The Witch of Buchenwald" (Die Hexe von Buchenwald) by the inmates because of her cruelty and lasciviousness toward prisoners.”
