Immigration Crisis: Official: ‘A Tsunami of People Crossing the Border
Fox News ^ | Thursday, July 3, 2014 | Todd Starnes

Posted on 07/03/2014 6:04:24 PM PDT by kristinn

The mass migration of illegal immigrants into the United States is like a “hurricane that won’t stop,” according to sources inside an organization contracted to run refugee camps for the Department of Health and Human Services.

“It’s a tsunami of people and I don’t know what we can do to make it stop,” the source inside BCFS, previously known as Baptist Child & Family Services told me. BCFS is responsible for refugee camps at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, and Fort Sill in Oklahoma.

My BCFS source said they’ve been told by the federal government to keep the Lackland camp open until September and the Fort Sill camp open until October.

“It’s more serious than people realize,” the source told me. “It’s a mass migration of people.”

“To move Central America to the United States is not the answer,” the source said. “It’s a serious problem, and someone in Washington needs to wake up.”

As many as 1,200 illegal alien children are housed at the Lackland facility, which has drawn fire in recent days over allegations from former employees that the government is downplaying the health risks there and that a security force has been bullying staffers.

Several workers told me staff members have been threatened with arrest if they speak publicly about what is happening inside the facility.

Perfect!!!! That would work...

Medical staff warned: Keep your mouths shut about illegal immigrants or face arrest

What would be the charge? Tax dollar is paying for this and we are not able to see what is going on?

Kristinn,

My question is to the person covering this story:

On what grounds were workers threatened with arrest?

I.e. what law was being broken by them, that would then be reason to arrest them?

Uh.

In case you ain’t noticed, destroying “who” we are is precisely what the government is doing by replacing us with another population, as we ain’t doin’ sh*t about it.

The children of the elite will be fine.

The children of all others will starve and die.

Every single federal official that delayed & didn’t take seriously the building of a secure fence should be prosecuted & hanged for treason.

The media last night already upped the espected number of these illegals from 60,000 for this year to 80,000.

They claim that 52,000 have already crossed in the first 6 months of this year.

Even the 80,000 number is too small.

“Build a WALL with National guard on it “

You mean the border wall that “family values don’t stop at the Rio Grande” Bush was supposed to build but wouldn’t?

I thought so. Of course in his defense he was too busy trying to force amnesty on us to do something that would protect the country from invasion.

Americans have no political party that represents us. Foreign nationals illegally in the USA have two.

After that get the buses ready to take them to the polls and vote illegally.

No, the gooberment isn’t doing squat about this. What, pray tell, should we do about it?

You need to separate “We the People” from “We the Gooberment”. If “We the People” are not pleased, “We the People” should be eliminating the source of the problem. Not the symptom. Not the result.

I tend to think We the People will handle this situation. Peaceably, or otherwise. We’ve done it before. We’ll do it again. Have faith my friend.

From what I can see, what we are doing about it is being replaced.

Invasion of the Country Snatchers.

I am at the point of “otherwise” myself.

God only knows what the power-crazed ding-a-ling in the WH is promising Third World satraps in exchange for emptying out their hellholes in time for 2014 midterms.

Federal agents, the Border Patrol, DHS and HHS are violating the immigration laws already on the books which protects US citizens from parasitic invaders----the White House does NOT want to see this story on the national news. 75% of Americans agree with patriotic Americans speaking out--- protecting their country from invasion.

Fox's Dana Perino said it early-on----Americans watching the invading swarm at the border recognize this is not "immigration"

There's nothing but arrogance from these self-absorbed illegals.......“We’re taking over," "YOU Americanos leave, we stay," "viva La Raza,” "kill the gringo," " when do we board the US gravy train," etc.

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

/ The swarm of "children," gang members, new Democrat voters, do not want to be US citizens, just a never ending supply of US cash....much of it sent back home......

INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY---Central America Border Rush Fueled By Remittances
(extortion racket---US taxpayers to prop up corrupt govts)

......52,000 unaccompanied illegals crossed the south Texas border this year.....as the political debate focused on immigration enforcement, a key economic factor has been lost in the clamor. Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras, which are supplying three-quarters of the latest cross-border flood, and are dependent on their diaspora in the US to prop up their own woeful economies.

Immigrants send back billions of dollars to their families. Remittances have risen to 16.5% of El Salvador's GDP, 15.7% of Honduras' and 10% of Guatemala's, according to World Bank data. Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic and Bolivia rely on remittances for 4.1% to 9.7% of GDP.

But the figure drops precipitously for every other country in Latin America. Mexico, with the largest immigrant population in the U.S. with as many as 13 million people, now relies on remittances for just 2% of GDP.

Migrant remittances to Mexico were $22 billion in 2013, 29% below their 2006 peak. For Colombia, once a locus of drug-war violence, that has turned itself around, remittances are only 1.1% of GDP. Free-market star Chile's figure is 0%.

It's not surprising to see Central American leaders urging the U.S. to let the newest arrivals stay. Those migrants' remittances offer a lifeline to desperately poor countries. While the money goes to families, it helps the broader economy......and ultimately fills government coffers.

A 2008 Pew Research Center survey found that 54% of foreign-born Hispanics send remittances to their home countries, compared to 17% of U.S.-born Hispanics. Undocumented immigrants are believed to send more cash home than either.

Virtually all the cash received by the three remittance outliers is from the U.S. (Guatemala 89%, El Salvador 90%, Honduras 87%).

The most compelling questions: how did so many get here so quickly? Where did their "impoverished elders" get the $8000 cash to transport them here? Did they have "inside info"...did they have guarantees that they'd be riding the US gravy train once they crossed the "border"?....

Illegals Central America trek---they had lotsa help.

Defunding the government is the ONLY answer. But, millions of us have to do it in tandem, not just one or two who can be thrown in jail.
