Ted Cruz: There Are Bigger and More Cages for Children at the Border, It’s a Full Blown Crisis

EXCERPT:

CRUZ: “We went and toured the Biden cages. You know, for four years we heard Democrats and the media talking about kids and cages under President Trump. Joe Biden has built more cages, the cages are bigger and they are more full. The Donna facility, where that video you just showed was taken, the Donna facility is this giant tent city that they’ve built. It’s massive. It’s designed to hold a thousand people, but under COVID restrictions its capacity is 250. It right now has over 4,000 people in it, it is at a 1,500% capacity, and that meant you saw in these cages children, little boys and little girls side by side, they’re not 6 feet apart, they are not 3 feet apart, they’re not even 6 inches apart. They are lying on the floor, there are no beds, they are lying on the floor side by side, they're covered with aluminum foil emergency blankets, and in that facility the children there are testing positive for COVID at roughly a 10% rate. So they are locking them in these cage where COVID in a pandemic is a real risk. It is inhumane, it is unconscionable, and it’s the direct result of the political decisions that Joe Biden has made."
