US Media Restricted at Border, Federal Agent Cites Safety Concerns
This appears to be really bad stuff taking place in America...
At Breitbart.com, Brandon Darby writes about the government's attempt to keep what's happening from the public:
"Spratte told Breitbart Texas that the Border Patrol agents are being placed under immense pressure in the crisis and that they have to follow their orders from above. He said, 'A supervisor in the Border Patrol can't just put out a policy, it has to come from above them in the chain, maybe even as high up as Washington.'
'I think the folks in Washington are embarrassed that we have so little control over what is crossing into our nation right now and they don’t want the American public to have pictures or video of this failure, and this ultimately hurts the public and limits the knowledge they have. The public has a right to know what is really going on here,' said Spratte."
