It is completely unlawful for ICE to turn away members of Congress like this. The law could not be more clear; no member of Congress may be denied access to a facility where ICE is detaining someone, and they cannot be required to schedule in advance. Surprise inspections must be surprise.
If ICE were acting entirely within the law and maintaining good conditions in all its facilities, they would not be turning Congresspeople away.
But they clearly aren't.

Trump has not ended the war in Ukraine in 24 hours as promised. Rubio is now moving the goalposts and saying that was never Trump's promise and that his new policy is just that he wants to see the war ended at some time.
CBS: One of the many things Trump said during his campaign was that he would end the war in Ukraine on day one. That did not happen.
MARCO RUBIO: The promise the president made really, if you look at it, is it's going to be official policy of the US that the war in Ukraine needs to come to an end
