Biden Immigration Tag

San Diego County has answered a call by HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra to house unaccompanied minors who cross the U.S. border illegally. Under the federally funded HHS Refugee Resettlement Program, children who cross the border without parents will be offered food, shelter, and healthcare until they can be processed. In San Diego, 70 of the 700 girls currently being housed at the San Diego Convention Center have tested positive for COVID-19.

According to The Washington Post, phase two of the migration surge at the border could contain a lot of families:
DHS expects approximately 500,000 to 800,000 migrants to arrive as part of a family group during the 2021 fiscal year that ends in September, a quantity that would equal or exceed the record numbers who entered in 2019, according to government data reviewed by The Washington Post. Officials are racing to find facilities to house these families ahead of their release, along with additional staff to process an increase in humanitarian and asylum claims.

The Health and Human Services Department (HHS) asked the Pentagon if officials could house unaccompanied migrant children at two Texas bases:
[Pentagon spokesman John] Kirby told ABC News at his ongoing on-camera news conference that he did not have many details, but that HHS had asked the Pentagon to house unaccompanied minors at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, Texas and Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas.

We all knew why President Joe Biden's administration did not want media around the border or talking to agents. But now he can no longer deny it. Axios published photos of an overcrowded border patrol tent in Donna, TX. Rep. Henry Cueller (D-TX) provided the photos to "raise awareness about the situation" after someone gave them to him over the weekend.

The situation at the border keeps getting worse, despite the Biden administration's refusal to call it a crisis. It seems like all norms and rules have been abandoned. Normalcy is not even a consideration. The Border Patrol, which is already stretched to its limit, is now reportedly considering releasing some illegal crossers without even assigning them a court date.

Following reports that there are more than 13,000 unaccompanied minors in U.S. custody and that steady streams of people illegally crossing the border continue to add to an already massive processing backlog for ICE, U.S. Customs and Border Protection has asked for air support to move people to states along the Canadian border, according to the Washington Post.

CBS News reported the Border Patrol's backlog has 4,200 children and has held 3,000 of them past the legal limit. About 9,000 unaccompanied children are at the Department of Health and Human Services facilities. These 4,200 children at border patrol facilities means the U.S. has over 13,000 children in custody.

As the Biden administration settles into its open borders policies, even the media is starting to notice that conditions are not good for those, particularly children, crammed into substandard facilities, often with no Wuhan coronavirus testing or social distancing, masking measures. The CDC even "bent" its rules on COVID so that Biden could place as many illegals into detention facilities as possible.

President Joe Biden and his administration insist we do not have a border crisis. Evidence continues to refute them, but they cannot ignore this video:
The video appeared on the TikTok account of "Tripwires & Triggers," a service started by Jaeson Jones to keep the public informed about the situation at the southern border.
