Radical Democrat congresswoman Rashida Tlaib was denied access to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) contracted facility earlier this month after she failed to request a tour. Tlaib then created a public relations spectacle, claiming she was unfairly barred despite showing up to the facility without notice.
Earlier this month, Tlaib stormed the Calhoun County jail in Michigan with two members of her staff, two immigration attorneys, and a reported group of eight or nine people. Calhoun County jail has contracts with ICE.
Tlaib tweeted that she was “denied access to tour the facility,” and received nearly 12,000 “likes” on Twitter.
“If they want a tour of a contracted facility they have to set it up 48 hours in advance,” said Calhoun County Sheriff Matt Saxton. “My lieutenant followed procedures, and we just don’t let a group walk into our facility. If she had called me and said, ‘I would like a tour of your facility,’ I would have set it up.”
Tlaib claimed to have spoken with “4 immigrant detainees,” despite being denied access to the facility. Tlaib further claimed, “One suffers from severe PTSD & requires medication. She is on day 10 w/o her prescription. Another woman had to sleep on the floor for 3 days.”
Of the approximately 191 ICE detainees housed there, Sheriff Saxton said no one sleeps on the floor unless they choose to do so. Sheriff Saxton added that he has received no complaints about mistreatment from any of the illegals housed there, and no complains have been filed by any of the illegals.
Regarding Tlaib’s stunt, Sheriff Saxton said, ““I have had no communication with her. With a little communication, we could have made sure that security issues were managed and given her a tour. It’s a jail and we have security measures.”
Tlaib, who has been called a “hate-filled anti-Semite” after choosing not to visit her grandmother in order to bash Israel, is being sued for $2 million for assaulting investigative reporter Laura Loomer.

Who? Oh you mean that chick with fancy rich-kid upbringing pretending to be poor? Yesterday’s bird cage lining.
I wonder how many times she used the “DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM!! line.
Who edited this photo? Someone must have deleted the flies around these four.
They were never known for burdening the postal service.
Sorry, wrong thread
...and a reported group of eight or nine people.”
Shouldn’t that read “a reporter group”?
Is this like where she screeches and does a two step like Barney Rubble in a parking lot?
Yeah, except AOC is reasonably attractive, Tlaib is a cow. I think she must be related to Helen Thomas.
Only thing missing is Mao’s wife
Small win for our side. Anything that thwarts these evil women is worthy of note.
I understand why Saddam, Assad and others, once on top, run absolutely brutal dictatorships.
Because Arab/ME politicians, once they have a bit of power, can’t go beyond being PR whores, political opportunists and petulant children.
Awesome!! I hope everybody does and reposts it a billion times!! :)
My S-I-L works in a Private Facility contracted with ICE.
Congressional Staff Members came to visit. The ones who work for Democrats walked in with a chip on the shoulders looking for anything an everything to bitch and moan about.
I told her beforehand they would come looking for trouble. She thought I was just being dramatic because of my Politics. I was proven 100% correct in my prediction.
They had that “do you now who I am” attitude especially when they were told that they couldn’t bring their Cell Phones with them and they had to go through Metal Detectors.
The ones who work for Republicans walked in and were very complimentary of the Facility and the Staff.
Pretty much. And Eva Braun.
How come nobody’s every played Eva Braun? /Kramer’s Los Angeles girlfriend
She and the others in the “Squad” are all nuttier than a squirrel turd...
