White House To Request $2 Billion To Handle Border Influx of Children Nogales Border

Influx of children illegally crossing U.S. border is called a humanitarian crisis Federal officials scramble to respond to unexpected surge of minors immigrating alone into U.S.

A rush of young children crossing alone and illegally into the United States from Texas is so large and unexpected that senior officials with the Obama administration said Monday the White House is asking Congress for about $2 billion to grapple with what is being called a humanitarian crisis.

Immigration agents are so overwhelmed that some children are being kept in detention and being processed during a longer time period than the 72-hour maximum requirement, these senior administration officials acknowledged. The officials briefed reporters on condition of anonymity.

Although they said they had been prepared for an increase this year in the Rio Grande Valley, the influx was much greater than anticipated. As many as 90,000 minors are forecast to enter the U.S. this year without their parents or guardians, the officials said.

But these officials also reiterated that the increased influx of unaccompanied children who are crossing illegally into the United States through Texas is due to escalating violence in Central America and not because of false rumors that people who cross will be eligible for some sort of permanent immigration relief.

The Obama administration request for the funds would cover costs of the Health and Human Services' Unaccompanied Alien Children program and is just the latest effort by federal immigration officials to contain the crisis.

Here’s a silly thought. The HOR could do the right thing. That would be to repatriate these unaccompanied minors to their homelands.

When you think about it Honduras GDP for the entire country is $18 billion. So the $2 billion we are giving their people is 1/9 of the entire countries yearly GDP. How is that for perspective?

$2 billion is a drop in the bucket---these invaders are salivating for handouts....free schooling, school breakfasts/lunches, free school supplies, medical care, rent/utility subsidies, welfare checks, food stamps, SSI for their various diseases, monthly SS checks for claiming "asylum'.......and so on, and so forth, ad infinitum, ad nauseaum.

HOW'D THAT HAPPEN? ...isnt it odd that thousands of these "children" decided to straggle over the border all by themselves.....from backward poverty-stricken countries w/ no means of mass communications.

The corrupt home countries are complicit in child abandonement ann should be prosecuted.

Yes, isn’t it odd how they all decided to suddenly show up....receive free airfare/bus rides, etc, food/clothing, etc, etc.

Not just corrupt home countries....corrupt HOST country, as well. Who authorized Homeland Security to authorize the military to accommodate these *kids*?

DOD MANDATE 4/14/2014 TRICARE LIFE SENIOR RETIRED VETERANS (OVER 65) ARE TO OBTAIN DAILY MEDS FROM THIS COMPANY? NOW MY QUESTION IS WHY DID THIS COMPANY WITH IT’S RECORD OF DEFRAUDING THE US GOVERNMENT TAX PAYERS, POOR SERVICE, JUST STUFF YOUR MEDS IN YOUR MAIL BOX BY USPS. NOT SIGN FOR. MAKING THEM AVAILABLE TO KIDS, TEENS, AND DRUG THIEVES.

Or you can use base dispensary. Which will have a limited supply of meds based on size and location of base. Refills come out of Pensacola, FL for the Millington, TN region. 5 days for a refill. 2 weeks from ES to get a first order or reorder. They will switch a DISPENSE AS WRITTEN drug fro a generic in a heart beat. Bounce from generic to generic for the same drug. Those with drug sensitives are at their mercy with NO control, unless you use the Base Dispensary, which is NOT set up for Handicapped Seniors.

This came out of the blue, with a small window warning. I’ve dug up these facts, I can’t find the money trail for the palm greasing. We are talking probability of BILLIONS in Fraud. Please be sure to read the complaints to see why!

MEDCO was a scandal plagued company before ES bought them out for $29 B. There is a post some where on FR about it.

THE NAME OF THE GAME How much of our hard-earned tax dollars will they wire-transfer back to their C/A mudholes?

========================================================

BILLIONS OF US TAX DOLLARS SUBSIDIZE CORRUPT GOVERNMENTS Dominican Republic travel brochures recount how the cunning Dominican Republic govt survives on billions of our tax dollars which its illegal residents residing here send back home---all of them riding the US gravy train.

The do-nothing Caribbean Third World satrap is teeming with poverty. The do-nothing Dominican govt provides no social safety nets for needy citizenry. The connivers work the US system---quietly and secretly lying-in-wait---to maximize its iron grip on America's power centers.

====================================================

Better add this in, too: A Miami paper reported that cargo flights carried millions of US greenbacks in suitcases, port cargo containers, and money bags, from Mexico to Texas, and then to Miami Intl Airport, on a routine schedule.

From there, authorities say, the money was laundered by two Mexican businessmen through a Miami-Dade check-cashing company that used the dollars to cash the payroll checks of undocumented workers at local supermarkets. It was all part of a Mexican-Miami bulk-cash network that federal agents say may be funded by drug profits south of the US border.

The culprits--Martin Diaz and Enrique Guerra--arrested earlier this month, appeared before a federal magistrate on charges of conspiring to launder US dollars for the purpose of “harboring illegal aliens’’ in this country. (Excerpt) Read more at miamiherald.com ...

=================================================================

OBAMA'S PERMANENT DEMOCRT MAJORITY HAS A SPANISH ACCENT Obama has done everything in his power to suck-up to illegals except fellate a latino on the steps of the Capitol.

We need to make it plain that Dems are in collusion w/ corrupt, greedy Third Worlders. The T/W has designs on the US---- and all that we possess. The calculated plans include manipulating vote-crazed politicians---making backroom deals to exchange US tax dollars for votes.

Calculated T/W connivers figured out that organizing hyphenates into pressure groups and exchanging votes for giveaways is the way the Democrat party operates.

=================================================

It was a slap in the face of every American that the Guatemalan Counsel looked in on the "children"...as Obama was planning billions in payouts.

That means all those illegals have TWO governments looking after their interests.....

Americans have NO govt protecting our interests.

MESSAGE TO SEN INHOFE---Sen Inhofe should notify Army officials that these are minor children......Child Protective Services should detain them under laws covering “suspected runaways”.

Sen Inhofe, the US military, and the state, should officially contact the governments involved specifying that they are required to seek out the parents of these Mexican, Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemalan children so that they can be returned to them via their respective juvenile justice systems.

Sen Inhofe might emphasize that the countries involved might not want to be party to child abandonement, as the world looks on.

AS yefragetuwrabrumuy INSIGHTFULLY POSTED By US law, these separated children are legally chattels of their parents; the state cannot release minors until there are responsible adults to care for them.

=================================================

MEMO TO SEN INHOFE: If necessary , Sen Inhofe should expose the corruption in American CPS agencies. One news report that interviewed ex-Child Protective Service agents, exposed that the entire CPS..... aided and abetted by the Virginia legal system...... is designed to separate mothers from their children.

The price is right.

(a) For every child taken from the parents, the Federal government pays CPS approximately $5,000 dollars. (b) If the child is a minority, more money is paid. (c) And if the child has a disability, the feds payout even more in taxpayer’s money to separate children from parents.”

NOTE: The reporter who exposed this corruption kept getting death threats directed at him AND his family for covering this story.

This came out of the blue, with a small window warning. I’ve dug up these facts, I can’t find the money trail for the palm greasing.


Not sure where the $$ trail runs, but no doubt it runs SOMEWHERE near the White Hut/elected officials.

Here’s an interesting description of ES, from their website....

We are passionate about gleaning insights from data and translating those insights into solutions. We test and learn our way toward the most comprehensive set of solutions to drive out prescription-related waste and help improve health outcomes......(Can you say Death Panels???!)

Today, we manage prescription benefits for tens of millions of Americans.....Employers, unions and government organizations throughout the nation rely on our services.....We are committed to our members achieving better clinical outcomes and dedicated to delivering better financial outcomes for
plan sponsors. (Of course....just look for the Union label!)

******
Again.....there’s likely a $$ trail there, somewhere.
