HOUSTON, Texas--As unaccompanied minors continue to illegally cross the Texas-Mexico border, President Obama's Health and Human Services (HHS) has been quietly releasing them onto U.S. soil. A total of 30,340 unaccompanied minors have already been released from federal custody and placed into foster homes, according to HHS' Office of Refugee and Resettlement (ORR). While many migrants have been released in border states like Texas and California, others have been set free in Alaska.
A spokesman from HHS confirmed to Breitbart Texas that as of July 7, five unaccompanied minors were released in Alaska. "Between January 1 and July 7, 2014, a total of five minors were discharged from the Unaccompanied Alien Children program to sponsors in Alaska," the spokesman said.
The trip from McAllen, Texas--where the current border crisis is occurring--to Anchorage, Alaska is a nine and a half hour flight. This is almost double the time it would take to fly the migrants back to their home countries in Central America; a flight from McAllen to El Salvador takes just over five hours, according to Google Maps.
The federal government's reasons for transporting unaccompanied minors all the way to Alaska are unclear. Some of the minors have also been flown to Hawaii, according to Fox News' Todd Starnes....

Alaska? Alaska? What’s wrong with releasing back into Mexico, they wouldn’t be complaining about being cold. What a messed-up way of running government, gosh how I miss Reagan.
I miss him to, but.. he also did the amnesty thing...
and Hawaii
30,000 of them. Let that roll around in your head for a bit.
mi taco está frío
They are cold because they don’t know what air conditioning is...
I asked my 11 yo granddaughter “why would people feel cold while inside on a hot July day in Texas..”
Air conditioning !!! she said..
:)
A Lot Of People Won’t Like This
I miss him to, but.. he also did the amnesty thing...
Reagan NEVER imported thousands of gang bangers and 15 -24 year old *chilrens*...by the thousands and build resort housing for them....nor did he fly them to HI, AK and all points in between on OUR tax $$.
Nice try at smearing Reagan....NOT!
Wouldn’t you like a government paid flight to Hawaii or Alaska?
I bet our vets would like some of this tax payer $$ to help out with their medical expenses.
Years ago they busted a bunch of illegals working in fish canneries in Alaska; the writing was on the wall back then. The nation founded by the WASPs is dead.
HOW are these Foster homes getting paid? I don’t think the House of Representatives approved funding for that, did they? I read that one foster home to illegals was receiving $7,000/mo.!
Have igloo will foster. :-)
No, the going rate is $7,000 for a private residence. You don’t want to know how much the large, privately-held or religious institution centers are getting.
HHS - Handouts Helping Socialists DISMANTLE HHS. Another UNaccountable agency doing the bidding of socialists and damaging the republic. More tricks from the U.S.A. (United Socialists of America)
BIG GOVERNMENT IS CRONY SOCIALISM
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers…
Neo youth corps of socialists
Wake up America. Don’t hit that snooze button…again.
Ballot box BUMP!
It's just like planting weeds in your garden.
Nice to see you’re still around.
More like putting vegetation killer in your garden. Obama is pissing on all our gardens, and killing them. That POS is one twisted sob.
The only veterans who get any dental care from the V.A. are 100% disabled, former POWs, those who have a service-connected dental disability and those in voc. rehab. If you’re 90% you’re out of luck. All these illegals have access to first-rate dental care.
and they get to see a doctor within 24 hours for minors, 1 week for the “mothers”
a veteran is lucky if he sees a doctor after 24 weeks...
