BORDER CRISIS: Biden Staffer Blocks Ted Cruz From Recording at Migrant Facility
“Please give dignity to the people,” the staffer lectured to Cruz as she hides kids lying down shoulder-to-shoulder.
Sen. Ted Cruz accused President Joe Biden of sending a staffer to the border to stop the Republican delegation from taking pictures and video at the facility in Donna, TX.
How far is Joe Biden going to stop the American people from seeing inside the Donna CBP facility?

From Fox News:
“Please give dignity to the people. Please give dignity to the people. … Please respect the people, the rules,” the staffer told Cruz while blocking his camera with her face.
“So you work for the commissioner, you’re a senior adviser, you were hired two weeks ago and you’re instructed to ask us to not have any pictures taken here because the political leadership at DHS does not want the American people to know it,” Cruz said.
“Please don’t treat the people as such,” the staffer responded.
“Your policies are unfortunately trying to hide them. I understand that you were instructed,” Cruz said. “I respect them, and I want to fix this situation, and the administration that you work for is responsible for these conditions.”
Cruz and his Texas colleague Sen. John Cornyn brought a bunch of Republican senators to the border since the Biden administration won’t allow the media to tour the facilities.
“The Donna facility where that video you just showed was taken, the Donna facility is this giant tent city that they’ve built,” said Cruz on Fox News. “It’s massive. It’s designed to hold a thousand people but under Covid restrictions, its capacity is 250. It right now has over 4,000 people in it. It is at a 1,500% capacity and that meant you saw in these cages children, little boys and little girls, side by side, they’re not 6-feet apart.”
He concluded: “In that facility, children are testing positive for Covid at roughly a 10% rate.”
These are the pictures the Biden administration doesn’t want the American people to see. This is why they won’t allow the press.

So cramming people into a room without beds and leaving them to sleep on the floor wrapped up in Mylar emergency blankets shows respect and gives them dignity while the act of documenting these conditions on video for the world to see is disrespectful and takes away their dignity. Only in this administration……
RESPECT ?
Who is going to respect the American people? The present immigration policy is racist. Look at the actual results. Every year, for 30 years, 60% to 70% of immigrants are Hispanic – almost all from central America, mainly Mexico. Democrats would love another 30 years of this. No one voted for this. We have strict quota for immigrants from around the world and all others have to comply with those quotas. But the de facto policy is to exclude central Ameriican hispanics from any immigration quotas – there by favoring one race over others.
Now, imagine if someone proposed that the USA accept 60% to 70% of immigrants from Europe, People would scream “racist”. Where are all the SJWs now? This is a clear example of “INSTITUTIONAL RACISM”
There is a huge double standard. Terrible hypocrisy. But the media will NEVER report on that. Buy anyone who still uses their brain can see it clear as day. The reality is that the USA could control its southern border – if it really wanted to.
Immigration policy for the last 30 years has actually been about undermining the power structure in America. It’s not about cheap labor – we already have millions unemployed and we could allow immigrants from other countries with low-cost labor (like eastern Europe, Africa or Asia).
When Adolph Hitler became German Chancellor January, 1933, he took an immediate dislike to the then Chief of the German General Staff.
Party officers were dispatched to round up witness testimony about the General busily amusing himself in back rooms and alleyways bent over young men and boys.
The General was then called in to listen to their testimony, after hearing the testimony, the General tendered his resignation and left.
The witnesses, as the General was leaving through one door, were taken out another door into an adjacent courtyard and shot.
The Biden Administration is eminently capable and willing to do the very same thing.
These pictures remind me of the pictures from New York, the nursing homes where all those infected people were sent in to infect the helpless old people. This is very much equivalent to a Nazi death camp!
Me personally? I would have requested that this woman move out of the way, once. And only once. And when she refused then I’d simply walk right through her without giving her a choice in the matter. Either she moves or she gets run over. Her choice.
You mean, give her the respect she deserves?
That sounds like a quantity roughly equivalent to zero.
Oh, I’d do it very respectfully. Wouldn’t lay a hand on her. But she’d better move out of the way or she might not like the results.
She had to go through the motions of trying to block the view of the cells, knowing that she couldn’t keep the scene from appearing around her head. It illustrates the ends the Harris-Biden administration will go to. In other circumstances, it would be a joke.
.
She only created worse optics. Biden should thank God he has a lap dog press.
Also, during the Trump administration, the Democrats claimed that attempts to block an investigation by congress was an impeachable offense. The senators were on an official fact finding mission.
I think we need to find out who ordered this person to obstruct an official fact finding mission of congress. We need to find out if it was Biden, and if Biden is doing this at the instruction of people who are paying him either directly, of via his son, from China and Russia. These are clearly important questions, so serious and important, we need to get to the bottom of it. We need a special independent counsel to investigate everyone potentially involved, and all crimes they may have committed at any point or time in their lives. The interests of justice demand nothing less.
I wish I could give you 1,000 up votes.
I look at all them people wrapped in silver space blankets and it reminds me of a baked potato bar.

When ever the left is wrong about anything the response is to virtue signal their position.
Yes. They will put people up in front of a firing squad and tell them (and the world) how much they love them and this is really for their own good – just before giving the command “FIRE”.
What a creepy woman. A zombie, really. She’d make a great political murderer – which is what her ilk is being groomed for.
Think it through- this is extremely bad in every aspect and they proceed anyway. They are unconcerned with the human suffering aspect, the overwhelming of border security is COMPLETELY intentional to get as many illegals into the country as they can. This is their number one objective during this administration. It was their first action on day 1 and they will keep doing it for the next 4 years.
Also they are completely unconcerned with the crime, poverty, and disease (and potential terrorirsim) that will come across that border. Look at LA, San Francisco, Portland, and Seattle; lawless hell holes is what they specialize in. Meanwhile these same locations are cutting law enforcement and letting criminals out of jail as if the convicted people were the true victims. This is what the next 4 years will be.
I would show this minion due respect with my shillelagh.
The “please give them respect” excuse is a sick joke, of course. That said, I think they would have been entitled to more respect if they hadn’t made great efforts to cross our border illegally.
