Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said he was told by a Biden administration
staffer that he could not record a video at a Border Patrol facility
along the U.S.-Mexico border.

    “Please give dignity to the people. Please give dignity to the
people. … Please respect the people, the rules,” the so-called staffer
told Cruz while blocking the camera with her face, according to a
video he showed Fox News.

“So you work for the commissioner, you’re a senior adviser, you were
hired two weeks ago and you’re instructed to ask us to not have any
pictures taken here because the political leadership at DHS does not
want the American people to know it,” Cruz said in response to the
official.

She did not disclose her identity, and The Epoch Times has contacted
the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for comment.

The staffer then told him:

    “Please don’t treat the people as such,” to which Cruz responded
that “your policies are unfortunately trying to hide them.”

“I understand that you were instructed,” Cruz said.

    “I respect them, and I want to fix this situation, and the
administration that you work for is responsible for these conditions.”

Cruz and more than a dozen Republican senators went to the border last
week, with many describing overcrowded and severe conditions in
facilities used to hold unaccompanied minors—children who unlawfully
enter the country without an adult.

    These are the pictures the Biden administration doesn’t want the
American people to see. This is why they won’t allow the press.

In recent weeks, Republicans have blamed President Joe Biden’s
administration for the surge in illegal immigration, although Biden in
a press conference said such surges are routine and blamed the
previous administration for the humanitarian conditions on the border.

The senator also posted photos that the “Biden administration doesn’t
want the American people to see,” according to a tweet that included
images of a crowded illegal immigrant facility in Donna, Texas—near
the border.

“This is why they won’t allow the press. This is the CBP facility in
Donna, Texas. This is a humanitarian and a public health crisis,” Cruz
tweeted.

Journalists will be eventually allowed to go to the border to film
Border Patrol facilities after they have been largely denied access,
according to White House press secretary Jen Psaki in a Sunday
interview.

Some Democrats whose districts lie on the border have said Biden needs
to take action immediately to deal with the situation.

Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas) told CBS News on Sunday that numerous
family units who crossed the border illegally have been released into
the United States without a notice to appear in court.

“They’re supposed to appear, show up, maybe in 60 days, report to an
ICE office,” he said. “This is unprecedented.”
