Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley tried to visit an immigration detention facility in Texas over the weekend, but was soon denied access into the building. This prompted questions about what's going on behind closed doors at some of the country's detention facilities amid concerns about the separation of children from their parents who have attempted to cross the border illegally.

Merkley live-streamed his arrival at a detention facility run by the Office of Refugee Resettlement in Brownsville, Texas on Sunday, which he said was housing children who had been separated from their families at the border. During Merkley's live stream, the senator introduced himself to guards outside the building, identifying himself as a member of Congress and asking for permission to enter. The windows at the facility appeared to be blacked out.

"I was barred entry," Merkley said. "Asked repeatedly to speak to a supervisor -- he finally came out and said he can't tell us anything. Police were called on us" (See URL for full story)

Over 1,000 children separated from their parents and confined in an old Walmart with blacked out windows … ? Cops called on a US Senator ? Something smells, and that's from outside the building.

Merkeley is an idiot. He has no authority to be there. There is nothing wrong with locking up people who try to enter the country illegally. It is common sense to separate the children. This is why we have separate correctional institutions for juveniles and adults. Why in the world would you want the children locked up with adult criminals? More twisting of reality from the left. They have no shame anymore.
