The Wrap: LA Rep. Jimmy Gomez Accuses ICE of Staging Empty Migrant Detention Center: ‘Straight Out of the Twilight Zone’
Washington,

Rep. Jimmy Gomez of Los Angeles thinks the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement cleared out a migrant detention center ahead of his visit. The politician says ICE must have cleaned up the facility in question because they knew they were “breaking the law” amid activists’ calls of inhumane conditions. “It was straight out of ‘The Twilight Zone,’” Gomez told Jen Psaki on MSNBC’s Wednesday segment of “The Briefing.” “We heard stories that it was overcrowded, that people were there, kept for days, and we were finally let in. I kind of already had an idea that it would look like it’s in the basement.” |
