U.S. authorities caught more than 171,000 migrants at the U.S. border with Mexico in March, according to preliminary data shared with Reuters, the highest monthly total in two decades and the latest sign of the mounting humanitarian challenge confronting President Joe Biden.
The total includes about 19,000 unaccompanied migrant children and 53,000 family members traveling together, the preliminary figures show. Single adults made up roughly 99,000 of the total.
The Biden administration is struggling to find housing for unaccompanied children who have been backed up in crowded border stations and processing centers for days. The shelter system that houses the children has been overwhelmed and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has scrambled in recent weeks to open emergency shelters, including sites in conventions centers in Dallas and San Diego.
Today we have a video with a heartbreaking moment where a crying migrant child approached a U.S. Border Patrol officer near the Mexico-United States border in Texas and asked for help has been captured on video.
The boy can be seen walking towards the Border Patrol agent and asking for assistance because he had been dumped near the Rio Grande.
‘It’s that I was coming with a group and they abandoned me and I do not know where they are at.’ ‘Somebody could kidnap me, I’m scared,’ the child told the officer.

In his voice, you can see his fear and how he is terrified and when he says that they left him lying. Why is this happening? it is better to leave it outside the border but accompanied. This is not OK. This is a crisis.
Biden has to take e the blame for encouraging people to come.
Why is this encouraged by Democrats?
Are any of these children being trafficked?
***I wonder if Kamala is watching this? ***
“She polished that knob so carefully,
Than now she runs the border and the kid you see!”—Apologies to Gilbert and Sullivan.
Follow the giggles.
Dems will just spin this and say it’s all the more reason we have to welcome all comers...and the MSM will eat it up...and the stoopids will, too.
Do you really believe that Plugs is in charge of the USA?
180,000 illegals in one month is equivalent to the total population of San Antonio, TX, or Tempe, AZ, or Huntington Beach, CA, or Yonkers, NY or Newport News, VA, or Overland Park, Kansas
19,000 illegal unaccompanied children is equivalent to half the population of Galveston, TX, or all of Nogales, AZ, or of Agoura Hills, CA, or West Hempstead, NY, or Cherry Hill, VA or Junction City, KS
53,000 family units is equivalent to the 3-4x the population of Port Arthur, TX, or Maricopa, AZ, or Palm Desert, CA, or Niagara Falls, NY, or Leesburg, VA or Manhattan, KS (family unit pod estimate of 4-5 individuals)
And if the child wasn't kidnapped, the parents -- if they ever step foot in the USA -- should be prosecuted for child neglect. child endangerment, etc.
That is the first thing I thought of when I saw this story..
This would be GLOBAL front page news if it happened under trump. The media would be talking about it 24/7.
The media is now only Democrat Party [Communist Party] propaganda. Only the sheep eat the crap they serve.
This is not migration. Its wholesale human trafficking of children. The going price for a kid at the border right now from a coyote is about $3,000.
