    What are they trying to hide ?
    Quote:

    A Health and Human Services official refused to allow a member of Congress to enter a facility in his district where some of the unaccompanied immigrant children are being housed.
    Representative Jim Bridenstine (R., Okla.) was told he could schedule an appointment for July 21. “​What are they trying to hide?” Bridenstine said after the incident. “​Do they not want the children to speak with Members of Congress? As a Navy pilot, I have been involved in operations countering illicit human trafficking. I would like to know to whom these children are being released.”
    There are 1,200 immigrant children at the base. Bridenstine’s office explained that HHS releases the children to a “sponsor” in the United States. The congressman said that a security guard at the Fort Sill, Okla., facility refused to let him enter the barracks without HHS approval even though he is a member of Congress.
    “There is no excuse for denying a federal representative from Oklahoma access to a federal facility in Oklahoma where unaccompanied children are being held,” Bridenstine said in the press release. “Any Member of Congress should have the legal authority to visit a federal youth detention facility without waiting three weeks.”

    They are finding the most infectious, contagious ones to send to the White house to pay a visit to "The Messiah".

    So the Senator and Governor are permitted to see the facility but not the Congressional Rep of the district where Fort Sill is located ? Again ,what are they hiding ? Or is it just that they are still pissed at Bridenstine for defeating the party's prefered candidate ? What is it ? He ran as a TP so now he is denied access to a Federal Base in his district ?

    I thought Fort Sill was in the 4th district represented by Tom Cole?

    I stand corrected . I still want to know what is their reason for denying access to a Congressional Rep on a fact finding mission.

    Nice spin but we all know repubs on a fact finding mission just want face time to blast Obama and he is a known blaster even more so than the repubs who went already and maybe HHS wants to avoid more right wing abuse of CHILDREN for political hollering points.

    'Send them back!' California town continues immigrant protests after blocking buses - NY Daily News

    Quote:

    Immigration advocates and some from local churches have joined the crowds of protesters to voice their pleas for leniency and compassion.
    “Even though you're seeing on TV and the public so much outburst of anti-immigrant feelings, I think there are a lot of people that want to respond and have compassionate hearts," Tina Nicholas, who oversees Mercy ministries at Centerpoint Church in Murrieta, told the Los Angeles Times.
    The only thing missing from this disgusting display of conservative hate are dogs and water hoses. "What could they be hiding " Indeed. "fact finding" my A$$!!

    Its obvious... Dems resort to this tactic every time they get caught with their pants down in a room alone with the family cat.

    THey are hiding something... Eric Holder is probibly providing guns to the Jr. MS-13 gang members before turning them loose on the American public.

    they should be marching on Washington DC instead to protest this invasion orchestrated by the emperor.

    I got an idea . Why don't we house these "migrants " in all those FEMA concentration camps that Bush was accused of building ?

    Maybe its because there arent that many children left in the facility because they have been set loose into the general public already.

    ICE: Many Immigrants Skip Court Hearings | NBC 7 San Diego


    Illegal immigrants already being released to neighborhood near you | Fox News

    The releases have already started and the Border Patrol did not disclose how many. At least 60,000 Central Americans have entered the country illegally this year, though some news reports say the figure is as high as 170,000. An effort is under way to place children in foster homes or with relatives already living in the U.S., said Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas.



    The adults are being given a “notice to appear,” something like to a traffic ticket that requires they show up for a deportation hearing. Following that notice, they are simply being released. Those who return for the hearing will face a federal immigration judge to determine their fate.
    “You know good and well they won't show up and we won't go looking for them,” Gohmert said. “When they get their piece of paper saying report back on such a day at such a time, they take that as their legal permit to stay in the country and they go do what they want.”
    A senior Los Angeles County Sheriff's detective who routinely deals with illegal immigrants said a “massive number – 80 to 90 percent” do not show up for deportation hearings. Detention is not even being considered because Homeland Security facilities are not equipped to hold a large number of people, said the detective, who spoke on a guarantee of anonymity.
