The e-commerce housewares company Wayfair has now been targeted by the Left for selling furniture to U.S. migrant detention centers at the southern border. According to the Boston Globe, employees outraged by the business practice will be staging a walkout and have garnered massive support on social media from the likes of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who made headlines recently by equating migrant detention centers with Nazi concentration camps.

“Employees of the Boston-based online housewares giant Wayfair announced Tuesday that they would stage a walkout at the company’s Back Bay offices Wednesday to protest the company’s decision to sell furniture to operators of facilities for migrant children detained at the southern US border,” reports the outlet.
