The Texas Border Debacle. Does the Biden Administration Have an Agenda?
Immigrant children are being held in military camps.
A few key things have emerged that are indisputable over the last six months since Joe Biden took office. One of these is that the Texas Border immigration policy is rapidly turning into an epic fail of monumental proportions. Thousands of children are now being ‘imprisoned’ in supposedly temporary conditions, in military encampments, away from the prying eyes of the public and the media.
Readers should note that some may find the content in the video linked below disturbing. It is a recent BBC report on one of these internment or holding camps at Fort Bliss, in El Paso, Texas.
According to a WOLA article, there were already 17,056 unaccompanied migrant children in U.S. government custody as of March 24, 2021. Facilities are only designed to hold 13,200 children. Their projections for the month of March itself looked even bleaker.
Now, in the last two days, four Texas sheriffs, their counties (Kinney, Edwards, McMullen, and Hudspeth), and ICE representatives have sued President Biden and officials as the Department of Homeland Security for preventing federal officers from deporting illegal immigrants with criminal backgrounds.
Kris Kobach, the former Kansas secretary of state and the lead attorney for the plaintiffs told the Washington Examiner on Friday;
“The ICE officers involved in this case are absolutely astounded at what their superiors are asking them to do: releasing people charged with rape of a child, releasing people charged with dealing drugs and resisting arrest. These are really serious criminals, and ICE is being ordered by the political leadership of the Biden administration to turn them loose.”
Customs and Border Protection have reported a staggering 930,000 illegal immigrant encounters at the southern border since January — over 180,000 of which came in May alone.
The Biden administration’s border policies on immigration are rapidly turning the Texas/Mexico border into a free-for-all. Children are paying the heaviest price, with unaccompanied minors, the same children that are shown in the video above, now allowed access into the US.
The huge influx of these children has overwhelmed the system and threatens to destabilize the entire border region and social services networks in Texas if not address as a matter of urgency.
In truth, Biden has in many ways exacerbated the problems created by the Trump regime, as can be evidenced in this Guardian article from three years ago, and rather than dismantling mechanisms, has expanded on many.
