Sen. Ted Cruz wrote to President Biden Monday to demand he lift a ban on media access at overwhelmed immigration intake facilities along the southern border, where thousands of illegal immigrants have been pouring into the United States in recent weeks.

WHITE HOUSE 'COMMITTED' TO TRANSPARENCY ALONG THE SOUTHERN BORDER WHILE REFUSING MEDIA ACCESS (they Lie)

Department officials have so far refused Cruz’s request to allow the media to accompany senators this week. Cruz plans to travel to the Rio Grande Valley on Friday with Sen. John Cornyn, a fellow Texas Republican, and other GOP senators to observe the conditions.
“Denying the press the ability to observe, film, and report on the conditions at the border is not openness or transparency, it is hiding the truth from the American people,” Cruz wrote to Biden on Monday. “The press and the American people deserve more than denials and excuses from a podium. They deserve to see and understand the crisis for themselves with the help of reporters who are free and independent from your administration.”
White House press secretary Jen Psaki said access is restricted for safety reasons related to the COVID-19 pandemic, but news outlets are growing increasingly frustrated with limited access that is far more restricted than in past administrations.
Media were blocked from accompanying a bipartisan delegation that traveled to the Mexico border last week. Senators reported overcrowded conditions at holding facilities for children.
Sen. Chris Murphy, a Connecticut Democrat, reported on Twitter viewing “100s of Kids packed into big open rooms,” as well as terrified children separated from their relatives.

Murphy offered a conditional agreement with the GOP that the media should not be entirely blocked from viewing the facilities.
“I think the press should have some access, yes,” Murphy said. “But not unfettered. Enough for accurate reporting on conditions (which are challenging but improving), but not so much to disrupt the already tumultuous lives of these children.”

What about the "American Children"? Personally, I could care less about media having access to anything illegals got caught doing.

Cry Me A River.

Thanks for the thread OP!
Finally, NBC news shows the deplorable conditions Biden has put the illegals in.
And Joe's Ho had the audacity to state "they were left with a very challenging situation"
There answer to every problem they create is to blame Trump.
60 days into this F'd Up administration and there's a daily reminder of what a worthless politician Biden is.

The Dims didn't see this coming?
Welcome to reality

Well now, the Lamestream Media is finding out how the Socialist Democratic Party treats people! This ban on reporting from the border is typical. All of those news outlets walked in lockstep with the Democrats, swallowing and supporting every line they put out.... without fail. Their party loyalty was a huge factor in getting Obama his third term. Now, the media is being treated just like the blacks, hispanics and unions. You, as a member of any of those groups, are useless once the election was over!

the news media when the day comes.....

"what? me? what did I do wrong? didn't I do what you wanted? didn't I protect you? wasn't I part of the team? I passed you debate questions, I wrote opinions as news, I lied for you. sure I have grandparents who came from England, and who might have gone to church and had their own business...but I apologized for that already"

Don't remember much media allowed during Trumpstains time. I remember one where they staged the whole scene.

Shameful - but typical of DPST intolerance of anything but ideology approved by Big Brother Comrade Xi!


BTW-'r' - private citizens cannot be 'impeached' - but you don't care about teh Constitution , and likely never read it, and after all - Ignorance of teh Constitution is bliss for DPST minions. Your marxist tyranny is preferable to those who choose not to think for themselves.


Unless - a question - 'r' - does 'impeachment ' to you - mean an expedited boxcar trip to AOC's concentration camps for political dissidents?????
