        This Congress is compromised, corrupt and impotent! We the People have a right and a DUTY to defend ourselves against them and to institute a new form of government that is not corrupted by corporate money AND foreign influence just as our Founding Fathers feared!!

        That is the same policy that Obama used when the DHS had 10 times more children being separated from their parents.

        Not acceptable. Citizens are paying for these jails. Our representatives can enter whenever they wish. Dems need to fight this in court.

        If Congress was not dysfunctional, they would be a check on Presidential powers. They could have withheld funding for anything if they're barred from inspecting this. If Congress was not dysfunctional. @SpeakerRyan is the worst speaker, ever!
