        Why is he streaming it? There is a propaganda behind why u were not allowed? No matter what ur government position is, its not a guarantee of a free pass to any government facility.

        He is a senator - quite senior in government. If the detention centre has nothing to hide - what’s the big deal about allowing the senator in.

        It doesnt matter. Being a senator is not a guarantee of free pass to any government facility. They have to have a reason or legitimate business. Other thing is he is streaming his visit. Why? U cant just come as u like & broadcast what is in there. This is paranoia.

        What he needs to stream is what he is doing in the senate, to prove that he is not a useless sitting senator.

        He is actually who has a maliscious intent, why he is streaming it.

        Hard to believe how inhumane the government treats immigrants. Nothing surprises me anymore - wasn’t it Republicans who set up Guantanamo- big stain on humanity! Wasn’t it only 60 years ago that African Americans were segregated on public bus’, in schools. Shame

        @SenJeffMerkley Sounds like the time Congressman Leo Ryan tried to visit with his constituents in Guyana under Jim Jones. Congressman was killed. Hope Senator Merkley's spirit hasn't been killed. Try again to see facility.

        This is just grandstanding and fear mongering for political advantage.

        Fear mongering is separating children from their families in the name of national security.

        And their parents chose to continue on with the knowledge the family would be seperated.
