government to do something about the conditions inside these migrant detention facilities. it would see as if they re being arrested there inside the rotunda. several of them on the floor right now. a live look. i also understand your group has been providing services to those seeking asylum and you ve toured facilities like the one in homestead, floor. what did you see there and how did what you see, how did that square with what we ve heard from secretary mcaleenan s claim that the conditions have improved? yeah, i mean, i ll tell you it s just not a reflection of reality. visiting homestead, having visited through my staff, what we re still seeing is a crisis. i walked into homestead, at the time i visited it was 1,700 children. it was intended to expand to 3,2 3,200.
the everglades. that s some good news over the everglades, but not really because the storm gets bigger and 100 mile-per-hour winds to fort pierce including fort myers. up north over orlando. seeing 90 to 95 per hour gusts. tampa 85. jacksonville, a lot of onshore flow. savannah and charleston, flooding along the coast pushing water inland and then all evacuees are going, atlanta. atlanta s getting 60 or 75 mile-per-hour winds because the storm isn t done yet. landfall around islamorada, make surface to key west and the biggest, key biscayne. where andrew went in, and into homestead. not as much surge as wind. this is going to bring 10, maybe 12 feet of water. anyone not more than 12 feet above water is going to get
