The family-unit holding cells smell like urine and vomit. Fights break out in the unaccompanied-minor cells. Scabies, lice, the flu, and COVID-19 run rampant. Up to 80 individuals are squeezed into each 24- by 30-foot cell, and there aren’t enough mattresses for everyone. Sheets of plastic divide the rooms.
“Any diseases that are in there, it’s being kept in there, like a petri dish. The smell is overwhelming,” — a Border Patrol agent said, describing the conditions in a facility in south Texas.
One or two agents are left to control 300 to 500 people during a shift. No agent wants to report physical or sexual assaults between the aliens because they’ll get blamed for “letting it happen.” They’re also forced to separate a child from an extended family member because he or she is not a biological parent.
The number of unaccompanied minors—children under 18 who arrive without a parent—is crushing the system. The law requires Border Patrol to prioritize unaccompanied minors and transfer them to the Department of Health and Human Services within 72 hours.
“You have a breach on national security levels that have never before been seen in modern history and you’re not even batting an eye about it, you’re not even calling it a ‘crisis’, you’re calling it a ‘challenge….It’s a slap in the face.” — Del Rio Mayor Bruno Lozano.
The crisis at the border is so bad that Biden is denying the press access. Why is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez—who once staged a photoshoot to draw attention to the “concentration camps” under Trump—completely silent? It’s almost as if she’s a political hack who used immigrant children as props.
There is the a massive border crisis and the WH is blocking media from the migrant facilities.. the lack of uproar by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez or the Mainstream Media further proves that hating Trump was the only thing they ever cared about- it was never migrants.
There were very stupid people who voted for Biden solely because of the “kids in cages” issue. They were convinced voting Dem for this was “holistically pro-life.” They don’t seem to have much to say right now. They didn’t have much to say when he nominated the man who targeted pro-life clinics and Christian orgs as head of the HHS, either. Or when he pushed to repeal the Hyde Amendment. Or when he pushed for the Equality Act. Or when he signed an EO to allow boys into girls spaces.

There were very stupid people who voted for Biden, period!
Paul,
You seem to have forgotten Trump created this mess not Biden. He is repairing the atrocities you endorsed.
Paul, you are a brain-dead moron!
I have never endorsed Donald Trump nor have I ever endorsed anything he has done, and your thinking that I have is what forces me to no other rational or logical conclusion than that you are a ******* brain-dead moronic idiot who is a fool, to boot.
If you weren’t a ******* brain-dead moronic idiot who is a fool, to boot, before you made your stupid accusation that I was in any way a Trump supporter. you would have done a google search of my Cape Charles Mirror postings, some 94,013 as of right now, looking for anything at all in any of them related to Trump, and if you had actually done that, instead of braying like a donkey about me endorsing Trump, you would have come across “Op-Ed: The Con-Man’s Comeuppance” on April 22, 2018, Special Opinion to the Mirror by Paul Plante, which is me, to wit:
Those who don’t know history are fools and those who make them their leaders and then follow them are even bigger fools, and we are privileged to be living in a time when that story is playing out all around us on the world stage, where the con-man, that being United States President and seemingly World-Class moron Donald J. Trump, the “Let’s Do A Deal Dude” who is running this country like it was a shady bidness in some third-world ****hole, has inflicted FIRE AND FURY (a very tired and hackneyed phrase these days) on Bashar Assad of Syria.
Except he didn’t, and the only ones who believe that crap spew that he did are the incurably incredulous in this country who watched the fireworks on TV and said to themselves “WOW, HOLEY MOLEY, ZOUNDS, LOOK AT THAT TRUMP PUTTING A REAL GOOD ***-WHUPPING ON THAT BASHER DUDE IN SYRIA WHO IS KILLING THE MERCENARIES WE HAVE OVER THERE TRYING TO OVERTHROW HIM!”

Sounds like a real ringing endorsement of Trump’s policies there to me, anyway – how about you, what is your opinion?
And by the way, that HUGE MESS in Syria Trump was left with was caused by the Obama, Clinton, Biden Triumvirate.
And Paul, my comment had nothing to do with Trump and everything to do with who voted for Joe Biden.
Do you think my comment is incorrect in any regard?
Do you think everyone that voted for Joe Biden was a rocket scientist?
