MSNBC Morning Joe host Joe Scarborough got called out by the Red Cross for promoting Fake News.
Trump’s Centralized State is even banning the Red Cross from visiting those infants and toddlers being incarcerated by Trump. What do Trump and Pence have to hide? https://t.co/envB35OsLz

The Red Cross debunked this.
This is not true, and we are sorry if our statement led you to this conclusion. We’ve had discussions with federal officials to see if there is a way we can help, but no one is “banning” us from anything, and if there is a role for the Red Cross to play, we will.

Of course, Joe just couldn’t accept that
Your statement clearly states that you cannot help those incarcerated because despite your offers to help, the government did not grant you access.
I understand the position you are in. But focus on missing children and leave the spin to Sarah Huckabee Sanders. https://t.co/PMWXRg4qF2

So, the Red Cross responded
We have been in contact at many different levels of the Administration to offer our help with the border situation. Officials have welcomed and appreciated the discussions, understand our capabilities, and know that Red Cross help is available.
