Why this sudden issue with the children?
Children are the perfect political pawns.

There is a multitude of reasons to seek asylum. And every country on earth falls into the “asylum thing”.

none of that gives us permission to be inhumane and cruel
That is too easy a statement to make... there are asylum lawyers lined up on the border prepping them for what and what not to say

Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon says in a Facebook video that Casa Padre, a center run by the non-profit Southwest Key, was housing possibly hundreds of refugee children who had been separated from their parents. He arrived at what he said was a former Walmart after he was refused an official visit by the federal Office of Refuge Resettlement and Southwest Key, with which it contracts for the care of the children.
Seems like they should have to let official government officers in government facilities.The man is our representative in a representative government.
I think he has the legal right to go in the facility and any real sheriff would help him. what say ats?

Honestly I was a kid in juvee once. I promise you the treatment these kids get in those facilities is better than what delinquent citizens In lockup get. We were not even allowed to keep toilet paper in the room, for risk of intentionally flooding the toilet. You have it better in an adult jail, I tell you this from experience.

So, they are supposed to let adult people in there to gawk at the kids just because someone says they are a Senator. There are some high ranking people in this country who are pedophiles too. I would say that the Senator should have to have something from the local court system verifying that he was all right. I would let the senator into the office areas, but unless there was some paperwork, I doubt if I would let him into the area with the kids. Would you let someone who was a Senator come into your house if you had foster kids without the proper ok from the agency that placed them there, that is the first place I would call to find if it is alright for that guy to be there if I fostered kids.
