As with any temporary flight restriction, media is able to call the FAA to make requests to operate in the area.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Biden received criticism from numerous lawmakers, journalists, and political commentators over his administration\u2019s seeming move to block the media from showing what is happening on the border.<\/p>\n<p>Below are some of the most notable responses that Melugin\u2019s tweet garnered:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Terry Moran<\/strong>, ABC News, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TerryMoran\/status\/1438684435059286018\">tweeted<\/a>: \u201cThe Biden administration blocks @FoxNews from flying a drone over the bridge in Texas where thousands of migrants are huddled in squalid conditions. Why? Why after days of the American people seeing these images has this access been cut off now?\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sen. Tom Cotton (R-TN)<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TomCottonAR\/status\/1438668262301179905\">tweeted<\/a>: \u201cWhat a coincidence. The FAA better be ready to explain to Congress why they\u2019re suddenly blocking the media from covering Biden\u2019s border crisis.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dana Loesch<\/strong>, radio host, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DLoesch\/status\/1438661029794353152\">tweeted<\/a>: \u201cBiden is taking notes from the CCP.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Josh Jordan<\/strong>, political commentator, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NumbersMuncher\/status\/1438685938121592835\">tweeted<\/a>: \u201cIf this is true, it is a pretty telling admission from the Biden administration that they\u2019ve lost control of the immigration issue at the border. Trying to limit access to information rarely ends well, so putting a spotlight on the issue with an FAA ban seems really unwise.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chad Wolf<\/strong>, former Acting DHS Secretary, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChadFWolf\/status\/1438673785926848512\">tweeted<\/a>: \u201cThe insanity continues. The FAA must clearly spell out the \u2018security\u2019 issue of this TFR to the American people. This looks like a political issue rather than a security issue. I\u2019m guessing the DHS Secretary will receive questions next week during Congressional testimony.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rep. Dan Bishop (R-NC)<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RepDanBishop\/status\/1438667273464688644\">tweeted<\/a>: \u201cRather than secure the border, the Biden Admin wants to censor Fox News for covering his abject failure.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL)<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RepMaryMiller\/status\/1438664174163402755\">tweeted<\/a>: \u201cNow the Biden-Harris Administration is illegally blocking the media from covering their border crisis.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Adam Laxalt<\/strong>, U.S. Senate candidate in Nevada, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdamLaxalt\/status\/1438684493167140865\">tweeted<\/a>: \u201cThe #BorderCrisis has gotten so out of hand that the Biden Administration has resorted to censoring the press in an effort to keep the truth from the American people. On the heels of Afghanistan, @JoeBiden has once again shown that he can\u2019t keep our allies safe, nor our borders.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
