The Biden administration is reportedly not allowing the media to go into migrant facilities, citing the coronavirus pandemic as the reason for keeping microphones and cameras out.
The recently reopened Carrizo Springs migrant facility in Texas will be closed off to reporters, despite being the subject of scrutiny, according to the Daily Caller.
“The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) is not hosting media tours of unaccompanied children (UC) facilities currently due to the COVID-19 pandemic,” a Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families spokesperson told The Daily Caller.
“If media tours resume, we will send a media advisory.”
Many supporters of President Joe Biden were hopeful that he would not take similar actions to former President Donald Trump at the southern border, but that turned out to not fully be the case.

The Carrizo Springs facility is intended for minors without parents, echoing back to the “kids in cages” narrative perpetuated throughout the Trump administration.
Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York rallied progressives against President Joe Biden for the move, calling it “not okay.”
“This is not okay, never has been okay, never will be okay – no matter the administration or party,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted last week.

The human rights group Amnesty International also stepped in, making its stance clear that these facilities for children should not be the “status quo” in a news release.

It’s becoming more and more evident that Biden is 10 times the dictator Trump ever aspired to be. He has already sent tanks and troops into Syria, without congressional approval, bombed Syria without congressional approval, signed over 40 EO, and has kept US troops in the Capitol for a month without a mission. And he refuses to hold any press conferences.
Alexandria staging a cry there is perhaps the dumbest thing she has ever done. She is crying through a fence that has nothing on the other side. This is how the world is being lied to. And it’s all through a dictatorship
