.@realDonaldTrump’s @DHSgov told @SenJeffMerkley he (or the press) is not permitted to visit the children’s immigration detention center in #Brownsville, TX. He’s driving there now to knock on their door. Follow his page for more: https://t.co/Rf6tF5Pjz4 #FamiliesBelongTogether pic.twitter.com/D5qBxMmHIw

The Brownsville TX detention center was kind enough to give us this number:[no phone numbers allowed] to call for a statement re: why @SenJeffMerkley cannot enter the building and see the children. https://t.co/Dp9MRZ7FmN pic.twitter.com/UmtcpVjNnb

.@SenJeffMerkley is outside the facility, unable to get inside or get anyone to let him inside. He’s answering press questions in the meantime. The doors behind him, very clearly blacked-out (and locked) sliding doors. pic.twitter.com/UhQCexbCZR
