apparently they were turned away (and locked out) from jail in order to visit 1/6 INSURRECTIONISTS and note their conditions (stir up trouble) in which they're being held according to the Geneva Convention.

Matt Gaetz (Fla.), Majorie Taylor Greene (Ga.) and Louie Gohmert (Texas) on Thursday were turned away from the D.C. Department of Corrections where they tried to visit accused Jan. 6 rioters.
Video shows officers, who said the group was trespassing and “obstructing entrance into this facility,” denying the trio entry.
“The supervisor came down and was standing right here and turned her back on me. The other one said she won’t talk anymore and that we’re trespassers,” Gohmert said in comments to the press after the situation.
This was apparently a bait and switch. We are here just to speak to a supervisor and when the supervisor came out and we came out to have that discussion, they literally ran behind us and locked the doors,” he added.“
In a press conference after the incident, Gaetz said the representatives are concerned detainees are lacking access to evidence and concerned about their treatment, which is why they showed up at the facility to get a tour.
A spokesperson for the D.C. Department of Corrections (DOC) told The Hill in a statement the trio showed up “unannounced with an unauthorized camera crew requesting a facility tour.”
“By doing so, these officials compromised safety and security operations at the DOC. Safety and security related to DOC’s facilities, staff and residents is a high priority and for that reason DOC has established procedures and protocols related to visits to its facilities. All visitors, which includes family members of residents, attorneys, and public officials, must adhere to the rules and procedures of the DOC,” the statement added.
it gets really tiring that these fvcks can't/won't/refuse follow the rules..but if they did they wouldn't win because their policy requirements are not popular plain and simple- gotta cheat..it's the only way..and they got told 'no' bravo!
