Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas), whose congressional district lies along the southern border, shared another batch of photos that were sourced from Border Patrol facilities.
Cuellar aired the photos during a CBS News segment on Sunday morning. The photos showed numerous unaccompanied minors being held in overcrowded conditions, sitting on the floor with foil blankets, and more.
“Border Patrol does not want to keep people there longer than 72 hours,” Cuellar told the network. “But there’s two issues, two factors coming into play. One, there are so many—there’s a large number of people coming across every single day, groups of over 100 individuals coming in into the Border Patrol custody, number one. Number two, the flow through, that is through [Health and Human Services], they’re moving and they’re trying to get more shelters open.”
Cuellar said that adult illegal immigrants are “pretty much returned,” adding that 71 percent out of 100,000 people that illegally crossed the border in February were adults.
“Those are being returned, expelled back. Some family units are turned back into Mexico depending on the age of the kids. Thirteen and above are being returned,” he remarked.
However, Cuellar said that some 2,000 people who entered illegally have been released into the United States by federal officials without any notices to appear at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) court date in the future.
“They’re supposed to appear, show up, maybe in 60 days, report to an ICE office,” he said. “This is unprecedented.”

I guess it’s OK for Democrats to put kids in cages.
I’m sure the fine people in his congressional district approve of the invasion. Why else put a Demoncrat into office?
Electing John Cornyn has the same effect.
Screw this guy Crueller. He supports this whole shabang. He’s a f’n democrat and knew exactly what was going to happen.
Just how do you know this? Cuellar has been doing a good job.
what league does Cornyn play in?
Looking at the big picture there’s the question of how many suffering foreigners should we take in. There are probably 100 times as many of them as there are Americans.
Why don’t we offer free transportation from where the suffering people are to America? Why make them suffer through the long journey to here?
If we want to save the world, the solution is not to bring them all to America but to do Nation Building throughout the world.
We could stop the hoards coming to the border by Nation-Building Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala, etc.
“Just how do you know this? Cuellar has been doing a good job.”
...I already told you. He’s a democrat. All tow the party line. Also, are you saying this guy wasn’t aware of what Biden would do in regard to illegals?
