Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) called on Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson to outline the administration's plan to handle a huge influx of children migrating across the U.S.-Mexico border.
What we need is a comprehensive look at what are the incentives that would convince parents to send their unaccompanied children on this horrific journey, Cornyn said on Tuesday. We need to know that the presidents plan is to deal with this.
Cornyns comments came as senators announced a nearly $2 billion deal to address the issue after the administration said 47,000 children have been caught crossing the border since October of 2013. Cornyn said the massive increase of unaccompanied children is a result of President Obamas decision to defer deportation of undocumented immigrants who came to the country as children, a group commonly referred to as Dreamers.
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) joined Cornyn, saying it is an issue that deserves the attention of all of us.
There has to be some kind of organized effort that is bringing them here, McCain said. The average 5-or-6-year-old doesnt just randomly decide to leave home one day.
Johnson is scheduled to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday and Cornyn is expected to grill him on this matter.
The administration needs to deal with this crisis, particularly this humanitarian crisis, Cornyn said. Border agencies have been completely overwhelmed. ... This is a huge mess.
The Texas Republican said this is what happens when the president "goes it alone" on immigration reform. The Senate has passed a bipartisan immigration reform bill but the House has failed to act.
Cornyn urged Obama to not apply the deferred action program to children currently arriving at the border, and provide resources to border states to address the problem.
"President Obama essentially created this problem and now he has the opportunity to work with us to fix it," Cornyn said.
handle ? don’t these idiots know the word STOP ?!
An article some weeks ago made the allegation that US “handlers” were orchestrating the spanish language tv ads airing in Guatamala and Honduras encouring people to illegally enter the US.
No, they don't. It has been said before, I will say it again. These are all future rat voters. More than likely, the Obungler will use his pen and phone, to give them amnesty. He has threatened to do so. I am 100% convinced, he will do exactly that.
how are all these kids from central america even getting here ? has anyone asked that question ?
guaranteed they aren’t hiking thru mexico. you can bet your favorite hunting dog on that.
How Will Obama Handle Child Migrants?
Just the way he always intended to - as a weapon agains America
Pen and a phone...
All he has to do is order the National Guard to post at Customs and refuse to allow Anyone to enter that isn’t legally able.
Then it becomes Mexico’s problem. They will stop it at their southern border.
This is a conspiracy created by Nero’s gang. I guarantee they are fostering these people to put these kids on buses because some official from here is telling them to. Most likely with the promise that the parents will now be allowed in to care for the kids
guaranteed they arent hiking thru mexico. you can bet your favorite hunting dog on that.
It makes you wonder who is behind it, and why. Maybe the rats see lots of new rat voters. Maybe they are just trying to collapse the system. Maybe they are trying to create incidents, to play the race card. I do not know, but I am sure the motives of the handlers are not good at best, and outright evil at worst.
They aren’t “child migrants”. They are shills whose parents have put in the illegal immigration game. Obama will give them citizenship and they, in turn, will sponsor their parents and relatives.
It is either that, or these “child migrants” will be MS-13 gang members in 2-5 years. They’re not all “children”.
A rational republic would send their military to defend its border from invasion.

The MSM was all over Bush for not “handling” Katrina properly. It seems that Obama is already handling the immigration issue with the same competence displayed during the Obamacare roll-out. Children will die and the MSM will bury the story ten pages back and below the fold. They’ll also use euphemisms such as “12% Of The Children Have Acquired Mortality Sedentary Syndrome, AMSS, Most Likely Due To Global Warming.
I got the hiccups today :-)
How Will Obama Handle Child Migrants?
**************************************
I know what he wants to do with the teenage boys..
That would be very un PC sand very racist.
/S
He’ll give them all a SNAP card, OBAMAPHONE , Section 8 housing and a full scholarship to the school of their choice.
This has a simple Obamatastic solution. Simply invite the parents and extended family to come collect these grappling hook babies and pay for the journey. Once here offer free housing and cash assistance.
You know it’s going to happen. It’s for the children afterall.
The solution to this problem is similar to the Gitmo problem
Release all the prisoners and end gitmo. Here the solution is to as you say allow all these kids and then their families by default.
The President should be aware..... if there is no law, then there is no law
You have it all wrong here ,,,, 0bama purposely creates lots of social problems ,,, than swoops in to save the day using his executive orders to bypass congress and the American people with some ultra-lib regulation . I call it the “0bama Doctrine” . He has a way of separating himself from all the negativity he creates in his admin. by blaming others (Bush) etc. for his personal failures . The media also carries a tremendous amount of water for a coverup of these failures .
Jan Brewer should load up a bused caravan of of these illegal drop offs in her state and send them to 1600 Penn. Ave. .
