| U.S. Congressman Blocked From Entering Child Immigrant Facility |
| 2014-07-04 |
| [Daily Caller] A huge missed opportunity. Shame on Rep. Jim Bridenstine for not forcing the issue and making those contract guards wrestle him to the ground in front of cameras. As special thanks also to the spineless Commanding General of Fort Sill for not going along with Rep. Bridenstine to ensure he was permitted into the facility. |

| #8 And beyond General Demsey, where did the order originate (rhetorical question)? Just asking. |

| #7 No doubt in my mind the Cdr, Fort Sill was issued a direct HANDS OFF order by General Dempsey. |

| #3 Yes, B. As the installation commander, he does have authority to oust anyone from the grounds who is not compliant with lawful orders. Take note of what is posted at the gate and along the fence lines as to what 'law' is in effect. However, I'd fire the entire chain of command up to the Chairman if anyone tried to override him. BTW, the installation commander usually is of a rank that is retirement eligible. Force the issue by firing him and the public fallout would be the equivalent of a nuclear handgrenade. Given that they're tone deaf in the WH, they won't notice the sand falling from beneath their feet till its way too late. |

| #1 Denying a lawmaker into a U.S. facility with no explanation? Immediately, I am suspicious of lawless activity going on behind the wire. That does not even consider the lawless activity already going on by permitting illegals into the country. And who are these rent-a-cops guarding the facility? What is there authority? |
