Confrontations are playing out nationwide as lawmakers conduct checks of facilities where thousands are being held
From New York to California, Democratic members of Congress have been repeatedly blocked from entering Ice detention facilities where thousands of noncitizens – many with no criminal convictions – are being held.
Democratic officials’ legislative checks – a legal right for members of Congress – have consistently confirmed reports that immigrant detainees are being kept in “filthy” and “inhumane” conditions with little regard for due process. Now, the facilities have become a battleground in the intensifying standoff between the Trump administration and Democratic lawmakers over the president’s supercharged immigration agenda.
They’re literally trying to do something about it but visiting the concentration camps.
They control the purse. No visits, no funds.
They need to put pay stoppages on everything. No vendors, no contractors, no salaries. Operate within the legislative model or don’t operate at.
Democrat congressmen control the purse?
That’s not worth nothing, but I’d believe that more if they weren’t defeated by a stern yet illegal “no” and immediately tried to make themselves out to be the real victims.
Do you already forget the mayor of Jersey City being forcibly arrested while trying to enter an ICE facility?
