The United States is preparing to shelter as many as 20,000 migrant children on four American military bases, a Pentagon spokesman said on Thursday, as federal officials struggled to carry out President Trump’s order to keep immigrant families together after they are apprehended at the border.
The 20,000 beds at bases in Texas and Arkansas would house “unaccompanied alien children,” said a Pentagon spokesman, Lt. Col. Michael Andrews, although other federal agencies provided conflicting explanations about how the shelters would be used and who would be housed there. There were reports of widespread confusion on the border.

The “should” be but they can’t so this is good idea.
Funny I lived on a military base and never once thought of it as concentration camp!
Have camps set up in Home Depot parking lots. Their Dads are probably there anyway...
Those numbers are proof ICE doesn’t have enough numbers
The left considers those undesirables, especially the veterans.
LMAO.
Teen aged boys. They must be separated from actual children as they are documented and SENT BACK.....I hope.
Not just STUPID. But after the NEW roll out 3 days ago of a NEW PHARMACY ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEM FUBAR it would be downright more FUBAR. I called all 3 of my DC Congress Critters and REAMED the phone answer person out over this unnecessary FUBAR waste of money and creating chaos.
Imagine this FUBAR at a HUGE base like the Navy Base in Pensacola?
We have a small inland Navy base, with a small Pharmacy holds roughly 50 people who are Fit, was designed for Active Duty. So NOT SENIOR or HANDICAPPED FRIENDLY. Yesterday was day 3 of the new roll out of the FUBAR program. 150 in line trying to pick up/drop off scripts to be filled. IF you chose to wait 30 min or more for a Pick Up, another 30 or more minutes for a turn in. DON’T THINK ANY SCRIPTS were filled Friday at all. If they did it was HOURS or Mon/Tue pick up. Which means the Chaos FUBAR will be repeated. I had both to do, they were critical meds for me. I ended up taking 1 of the GI pills, a Phenergan to stop the rising PAIN caused vomiting and 5 MG of NORCO for the Pain, so I could endure it and make it home.
Today I’ll have to do groceries in the electric handicapped cart, where normally I try to walk it slowly. My spine is totally degenerative with Neuropathy on top of 5 GI issues.
This mess is beyond anything Alinksy dreamed. When Hillary wrote her thesis about Alinsky in 1969, the media, courts, and swamp were weaker than today. Hope the people can beat them in the coming elections.
I agree with your thoughts there.
I’ve also come to the conclusion that many Leftists are so lazy, they let the media tell them everything.
It’s astounding to me some of the positions they take, and it seems to make total sense to them. This only happens if you turn your brain off and only take it for granted that what you are being told is a fact.
For our side, I do look at things. I think about them critically. I don’t think they do that.
Once again, this is something they rage at us for doing, but their side is actually the one doing it.
Open borders, children be housed separately, the correlation between these kids and the kids of felon prisoners, it just makes no sense that they can’t see how foolish they are being.
These people are on cruise control, opening up their minds with no filter whatsoever.
Well, that’s not true. They won’t let one sentence of a Conservative’s thoughts intrude. So I guess they do have that filter.
Ft. Indiantown Gap PA. in the Mid 70’s housed many immigrants. The only harm done to the base was the disappearance of all the ground hogs.
The left considers those undesirables, especially the veterans. ............................ No they just call them part of the stupid, ignorant “Deplorables”.
Same difference.
Us citizens and their children last.. how many more H1Bs a few weeks ago? How many dollars in spending without even a threat of veto without wall funding? Pure kabuki. No wall, no vote.
