i m being told right now it looks like the members of congress are just coming out of their tour. they were in there about an hour, which is about the time i got to spend in there, as well. sounds like a long time, but this is a massive facility. this campus is a former job force site, so we got to go into lots of rooms and see the dormitories, but it felt like we were rushed and briskly taken from room to room. i didn t talk to a single child in there, and i toured the centralized processing center in mcallen, texas, and i got to talk to people there. they didn t allow that here. now, marco rubio toured this facility yesterday. he said they also told him he would not be able to, and some of the images you re seeing from inside are probably these government issued images because they won t let us bring cameras, phones, or security devices citing privacy reasons. we ll see. the democratic delegation that was here, you mentioned some of those members, they said they are going to try to t
i ask them. emotional and mental condition of these children and the trauma that they are going through, they say it s not just a mental health thing, then they have to refer some place else. that s what s going on. as far as the facility is concerned, i will say good things about what i observed and the way the children are being treated, but that doesn t address the policy. why are 2300-plus children in this country, including 70 in this facility, why have they been taken from their parents, and why are they not being immediately reunited? and one of the most perplexing and perhaps even upsetting elements about this is because no one has been able to express how when a child is separated from their parent, how are they being matched up? how are they being cataloged,
virtual tours? zip-file? really big files? in seconds, not minutes. just like that. like everything. the answer is simple. i ll do what i ve always done. dream more, dream faster, and above all. now, i ll dream gig. now more businesses, in more places, can afford to dream gig. comcast, building america s largest gig-speed network. now several lawmakers are in florida to see the conditions of a facility in homestead, florida. the group includes senator bill nelson and congresswomen debbie wasserman schultz and frederica wilson. their visit comes after nelson
out into the street and blocked the path of this large bus. border patrol agents had to clear the roadway unsuccessfully, and now police officers with the mcallen police department have been called to try to clear the route here, but as you can imagine from some of these pictures we re bringing to you live right now in mcallen, that s certainly going to be challenging. i m looking at a human basically, a human rope a human chain of border patrol agents in front of the facility making sure there would be no actual protesters that make their way to the facility itself. again, fairly tense moments that are unfolding here in the city of mcallen, texas, as demonstrators block the path of what appears to be a detainee transport vehicle. fred? polo, stay on the line with me, because we do have some of the images and sound taken just moments earlier, where people were yelling near that bus. let s listen in and perhaps you can tell me what is being said
can see the silhouettes, hands, adult hands, and, obviously, the hands of children. as this bus is forced to take a different route to another facility. fred? just to recap, you re saying this bus was trying to enter this facility at mcallen, or was it exiting? fred, when all of this happened, this bus was in the process of leaving this processing facility, the facility that many of these families are brought to, are taken to, rather, to be processed before they are taken to other detention facilities. so in this case what we saw was this bus was leaving the facility when the civil rights group had noticed it and tried to get in the way of the bus and were able to do so and forced the buss to go to the other direction. we don t know after it has left the processing facility, we don t know where it s going, whether to a detention facility, whether people are being
