‘I am Political’: Children’s YouTuber Ms. Rachel Vows To Shut Down ICE Facility
YouTube content creator Ms. Rachel has a new political endeavor: shutting down an ICE facility that keeps parents and kids together.
The creator of children’s YouTube content has a new cause: shutting down an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility that houses families while the parents undergo proceedings.
“I am political,” Rachel Accurso, also known as “Ms. Rachel,” told NBC News. She is on a mission to close the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, which provides food and shelter for the children of illegal immigrant parents during their judicial proceedings.
“It’s political to believe that children are worthy of love and care, and that every child is equal, and that our care shouldn’t stop at what we look like, our family, at our religion, at a border,” she told NBC News in its fawning profile of her.
Accurso amplifies the claims of activists who criticize the Dilley center. Its operators dispute the claims about harsh treatment, including poor food.
“Children have access to outdoor recreation areas, including a soccer field and playground, a library, educational materials, monitored childcare while parents attend legal proceedings, and much more,” CoreCivic told Fox News.
“We provide three nutritious meals a day that are often enjoyed by members of our staff,” a company spokesman said. “DIPC is subject to multiple layers of oversight and is monitored closely by our government partners to ensure compliance with policies, procedures and standards.”
This is not Rachel’s first foray into politics.
As NBC News reported:
Her advocacy for children in Gaza had led to a torrent of criticism from right-wing groups that accused her of antisemitism for centering Palestinian children rather than Israelis. Accurso has pushed back on those claims, noting that she advocates for children suffering on both sides of the conflict. The controversy has led to threats against her family, she said, and she worried that speaking out about ICE detention might inflame the situation.
She told NBC News she is simply advocating for children like Mr. Rogers did.
While her allegations about treatment in the facility are certainly concerning and worth investigating, it’s not clear how exactly shutting down the entire center would fix the problem.
Illegal immigrant parents must still be processed and given their chance to appeal a deportation.
Instead of putting the kids in cages and separating them as President Barack Obama did, the current administration is trying to find a solution to a difficult problem.
In this center, at least the children are fed and sheltered by the taxpayer, along with their families.
Of course, there is a good long-term solution, which is that people start respecting our country’s laws and stop entering and staying in the country illegally, putting their children in difficult situations. That would be an act of “love and care,” as “Ms. Rachel” might say.

Another narcissistic, malignant and self-enriching AWFUL, making a killing peddling the Dhimmi-crats’/Islamofascists’/Muslim supremacists’ evil dogmas, and, poisoning the minds of our children, to hate Jews and Israel.
I suppose MS Rachel would be opposed to an alternate like putting the illegal alien families onto a container ship and parking it in the Gulf? Maybe she’d be ok with Child Protective services coming in and removing the children from their clearly unfit Parents who exposed the children to all sorts of dangerous risks and can’t provide for them financially. I suppose her solution is turn ’em loose with a work permit, amnesty, some sort of deferment from removal, a generous taxpayer provided stipend and free housing?
The way to end this foolishness is to explicitly allow these AWFLs to personally sponsor illegal aliens. BUT they gotta reside in the primary residence of the sponsor and the sponsor is on the hook for all their expenses and liability for the actions of the illegal aliens they sponsor as a Parent is for their minor child. I suspect not many AWFLs will be willing to put their own $ where their mouth is.
Ms Rachel is not Mr. Rogers. He wasn’t a loony bin like Rachel.
Fred Rogers would be burnt at the stake for being a right wing zelot who believed that there were only two genders.
Actually, there are three genders. Gender is a term regarding language. Many languages have genders assigned to objects. La (feminine) casa, el (masculine) toro, etc. German has three forms of “the”. Die, der, das. Three genders.
For people, the proper word is SEX. Male SEX female SEX.
Sex is people and animals.
Gender is things (including people and animals).
She’s more of a Mister Greenjeans, except not as cerebral.
Why insult Mr. Greenjeans?
Far from it. Greenjeans was good at what he did.
All the baby animals loved him, and so did Mister Moose.
I don’t recall him advocating law breaking and aiding law breakers.
What exactly is Seniorita A-curse-o’s immigration status?
She is a hideous Jew hater who fiscally more than “center” Palestinian children. She spread outright lies about Israelis “starving Palestinian “ kids that were shown to be fake and yet she did not apologize nor correct this. Instead she pushed these disgusting lies to millions of children. She is literally evil ; who puts propaganda and bigotry on pre schoolers ?
She needs to be demonetized on all the platforms.
Fundamentalist extremists like this sanctimonious person are the true danger and the precursor to creating a police state. Her virtue is odious.
Go ahead and interfere in ice operations. Then you’ll be a felon too
Can you spell FPC Danbury? I knew you could.
It’s hard to find a pithy declarative for this anti-semite. What used to be hidden from the world because it would get you ostracized 50 years ago, in the age of the internet and declining morals. You now get your own show and you are celebrated for spewing hate and stupidity. SMH
I haven’t been so disappointed since Miss Sherri of Romper Room flew to Sweden back in 62 to get an abortion.
well she didnt want to be known as having mothered Bozos love child
Amazing the ki d of power these skulls full of mush think they have.
Another nut with a microphone.
She’s going to shut the facility down. And how exactly is she planning to do that?
“And how exactly is she planning to do that?”
By sending out her loony goon squad!
A combination of fairy dust and the Sweet Unicorn of Doom.

Go for it you little virtue signaling Karen….find out how your leftist ‘podcast’ works from a federal prison cell (spoiler alert…it doesn’t).
She’s been around children so long, she thinks like one. Then again, all leftists do. Some call it magical thinking.
