Takes some nerves, corruption, or sheer terror at what you're hiding to refuse a US Senator entry to a government facility.

This is a complete farce.

Absolutely ridiculous, especially seeing it justified by people.
"its not the senator's business"
"trying to make up fake stories of suffering within"

Lol sure fight with puny handguns against fucking tanks and nukes
I mean the US military didn't exactly just roll over dudes hiding in caves with rifles from the 40's.
Let alone if a country like Russia interfered and started smuggling in stuff like RPGs if a war broke out.

Literally all empirical evidence points to it but whatever, go with your gut I guess.
People thought the same about Hillary winning, guess how this went.

More than anything it makes the US military look pretty weak though.

Don't understand how he can't demand access, he should have higher authority for entering the site.

Quoting one more time for the new page in case anyone lives in Florida:

For anyone in Florida who would like to call the office of the other senator, Marco Rubio: https://www.rubio.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/contact

The person at the Tallahassee office answered the phone pretty quickly and took down my zip code and the message. They seemed not to have even heard about the Homestead site, so it may be worth calling. Of course it's Rubio so the chances of anything happening are like 5%, but trying is better than not trying.

As always when calling a politician's office, this is a horrific topic but you may get more mileage out of being professional and to the point. "I live in yada yada county. This is an important topic to me, and I would like Marco Rubio to join Bill Nelson in investigating this site" or whatever.

Thanks. I'm going to reach out. I doubt Rubio does anything, but he did do the town hall with Nelson and the Parkland kids. Maybe he could be shamed into working with Nelson, who I'm sure already reached out to his office.

They need to show up with a warrant for something benign like a noise disturbance and search the premises. They won't let you in on their own. After that image of the little girl changing the diaper of the baby she had no relation to came out yesterday, they wanna make sure everything is spic and span.

Looks like HHS wants two weeks to build a fake tour and photos area before they let anyone in. Youd think given what has happened already, they would be ready for this.

They want to control so only photos of older boys who look like they may be close 18 years old become available. That way the image portrayed is less affecting over media (than for example young children, girls).

(Amongst whatever else it is that they are hiding)

What evidence do we have in this giant shit-show that it's not the worst possible outcome?

At what point are we allowed to suspect worst outcomes, if not after the audio and video from the Texas camp, a senator being denied access to a facility in his own state, Trump considering them animals, and so forth?

The many people assuming children are being molested and killed. Sure get mad but this is a whole new level of mad that is not needed.

Please stop misquoting people. I'm no fan of Trump be he didn't directly call everyone animals. It was MS13.

Please tell us why we shouldn't based on the facts already presented?

Is it really so hard to believe that a camp set up for children that doesn't allow access to congressmen, and already have reports out stating that these kids are in danger couldn't end up going to that extreme?

He also referred to illegal immigrants to be allowed to infest the US earlier today. That might not be directly calling them animals, but its clear he thinks of them as sub-human which is just as bad.

Your entire post history consists of defending Trump and his policies, claiming the media lies, making shitty statements about the depiction of women in games, and praising JRPGs. You are so transparent dude. Ain't gonna work here.

This is like when parents knock on the door to their kids room and they "need a minute" to hide all their porn mags.

They're so obviously hiding some heinous things in that place that need to be tidied up a bit before letting people in there. If there's nothing going on and you got nothing to hide then just let them in now and look things over and they'll be gone in an hour.

The media does lie. All of them do. I haven't defended Trump. Just the phrase he used bro. I'm sorry what's wrong with JRPGs exactly? Here are more lies you are fitting to meet your agenda. If I defended you one time for saying something and everyone here misquoted it does it mean I 100% agree with you on everything now? Stop the bullshit

And where am I defending Trump exactly? Why do you people twist words with the people who don't 100% agree with you? This is how it starts. You wrongly accuse people of doinf things they don't do or say.
I've noticed this tactic lately of people using the "attacked because I don't 100% agree with you" line when they get challenged on a post.
