Representative Jim Bridenstine's (R-Okla) attempt to gain some first-hand knowledge on the 1200 illegal immigrant minors housed in his Congressional District was blocked by officials of the Department of Health and Human Services.
"It's for the Congressman's own good," Health and Human Services Secretary Silva Burwell insisted. "Many of these youngsters are carrying infectious diseases and parasites. We cannot allow unnecessary contact with unauthorized persons."
Bridenstine was advised to come back after July 21. "By that time all of the children will have been placed with other families or in shelters more suitable for the longer term," Burwell said. "It will then be safe for the Congressman to enter the empty facility and ask whatever questions he wants."

What a load of crap!
Isn’t it amazing how smart all these gov’t agencies are and how stupid we are. I’m sure thankful I have a nanny-state government telling me what to do, otherwise I might be forced to think and act on my own.
You hit the nail on the head John, as you always do.
