WATCH: Chris Wallace Confronts DHS Secretary Mayorkas on Lack of Transparency
Fox News Host Chris Wallace confronted DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for the Administration’s lack of transparency and media blackout at the border facilities in Texas.
The anti-Trump Fox News host showed footage of Biden promising to be a transparent President while then asking why they were refusing media access at the border facilities.
The RNC tweeted out video footage of the confrontation:
DHS Secretary Mayorkas blamed the COVID-19 pandemic for facilities being closed to the media despite the recent uptick in vaccinations and loosening of restrictions in Texas.
President Trump provided immense access to the media during his administration, even providing ride-alongs with border patrol agents to members of the media.
The Biden Administration has refused to admit the mass amount of crossings at the border is a crisis at this point. Speaker Pelosi even stated that she believed Biden had the situation, “under control.”
Do you believe the Biden Administration is failing to follow through on their promise to be transparent? Are they using COVID-19 as a scapegoat to prevent media from seeing the conditions? Comment your thoughts below!
