A Republican congresswoman took a trip to the US-Mexico border to expose the stockpiling of baby formula being sent to border facilities while American families continue to face empty shelves amid a nationwide shortage.
Rep. Kat Cammack, of Florida, was accused of lying about the formula crisis after she shared photos she was sent by sources last week showing full shelves of baby formula and food at a processing center at the southern border.
But now the congresswoman has visited and surveyed the facilities herself, finding not only an amass of formula, but other necessary infant supplies littered across the floor of a warehouse.
'Last week, I received text messages and photos from Border Patrol agents showing a stockpile of baby formula and there was complete outrage from the White House, CNN and other liberal outlets claiming that we were lying, so I decided to go down myself and film it,' she told Fox Business on Monday.
'Lo and behold, not only was there stocked warehouses, but there were multiple stocked warehouses that have been not only filled with baby formula, diapers, wipes and clothing, but they have been doing this for months and there's more en route.'
The GOP has criticized President Joe Biden's slow response to the formula crisis, which was caused by ongoing supply disruptions and exacerbated by a February safety recall at the nation's largest formula manufacturing plant.
Abbott Laboratories revealed Monday that it had entered into a consent decree with the FDA that creates a pathway to reopen its Michigan baby formula factory, however the timeline for operations remains unclear.

BTTT
The Bezos liars.
The apparent irony is Biden is hurting blacks more than whites with this, as supposedly as more whites breastfeed than blacks.
More theft by government.
Fact: up to 80% of women start out breast feeding but stop way to early. One year is re recommended, longer is better. The absolute minimum is 6 months.
Screw formula, shut it down except for medical prescription.
Women to lazy to breastfeed are abusing their baby by denying the child life long immunity and a far superior diet.
And don't go all Karen on me, “but it's hard, inconvenient, ect ect.” Suck it up buttercups or quit donating your eggs to your latest hookup's sperm.
How many businesses an be shut down indefinitely and not go broke. This Abbott must have one huge cushion of cash…
That’s a very broad statement …….
…..not all women can ‘nurse’ their child even if they desperately want to….
…and there are myriad reasons why!
I don’t think it is a black/ white issue
According to Obama/Biden of old would this be “taking us down a notch”?
“How many businesses an be shut down indefinitely and not go broke. This Abbott must have one huge cushion of cas”
Abbott is a huge operation, baby formula is a small part of overall revenue.
“Formula is processed crap to give lazy women a way out of being a good mother.”
I blame a lot of it on the feminist movement that almost forced women into leaving their children. They were shamed into getting jobs outside of the home instead of being the nurturing mothers God intended.
When I was growing up, men would be ashamed if their wives “had to work”. They were deemed losers. Then it became shameful if the women didn’t work. It didn’t take long for the feminazis to reverse the traditional mindset.
Horse crap.
I did not produce sufficient quantities of milk until my second child and my milk dried up at 3 months.
Resorting to formula certainly didn’t hurt my 6’2 linebacker.
Biden is hurting blacks more than whites.
Plantation owners doing what they do best keeping them in line or else.
Face it, people. Your government hates you.
