The government snared more than 3,000 illegal immigrants in just one day last week, the administrations top border official told Congress on Tuesday, saying the situation qualifies as a full-blown crisis.
Kevin K. McAleenan, commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, said more than 1,100 of those caught either jumping the border or trying to come through a border crossing without permission were children, either traveling alone or with parents, and forced on the treacherous journey.

*BUMP*
Nancy Pelosi and Charles Schumer are in favor of this terrible child abuse. They are aiding and abetting it by not securing the border so these unfit parents do not drop their children, or the children they’ve bought or kidnapped, over 18’ fences or stuff 8 mo. old babies under border fences in a holes they’ve dug out.
If any American parent did these atrocities, they would be in prison for YEARS. Why do we allow children from other countries to be abused with our knowledge?
The question on my is what is the immediate disposition of those 1000 to 3000 per day? Are they being sent back, are the all being held, or are they being released for pending hearings? I have noted the reports of apprehensions, but that doesn’t tell us if the apprehensions mean we are being protected. I admit not reading the article, but I note this lack of basic reporting throughout the media.
The question on my mind is...
Now, are they put in camps or are they released pending a hearing for which most of them will never appear? Not much being said about this now.
Not even the wall will stop them from coming, as long as the freebie faucet is running full blast.
Last I checked they are arresting 50k a month along the border on average.
Well said.
Plus Pelosi, Schumer and most Dems blame President Trump and his administration because we don’t let everyone into the USA that wants to come in by enforcing our existing immigration laws.
The military should have been put along the whole border two years ago.
As long as the policy is to let them stay once they cross the border, there is no way to stop them, period. The military should be able to load them on a troop carrier plane and dump them back in their home country, and cut off any money to countries that are not taking care of their people with the money they get from the U.S.
Let's Wrap This Baby Up, Folks!
You are so right, Cowboy. God bless Texas. Calif.is a lost cause.
BUMP! This article is silent on that too. What’s happening to these folks? Hopefully they are being sent back where they came from (miracles do occasionally happen).
Risk = little to none
Reward = immense
Result = unrelenting invasion
Nearly 400,000 were caught FY 2018 alone.
Keep in mind, these numbers represent those who were caught. How many were not caught?

How many actually showed up for any kind of immigration hearing? Less than 10%? How many are actually deported? Less than 5%?
That also doesn't take into account those who are NOT apprehended.

We were told for years that there were 11 million foreign nationals in our country unlawfully. It was a lie.
Yale, MIT study: 22 million, not 11 million, undocumented immigrants in US [1]
And 22,000,000 undoubtedly, is under estimated as well.
That's more people than the ENTIRE state of Florida, and darn near as many as the whole state of Texas! A massive entire state's worth of foreign nationals who have disrespected our sovereignty and rule of law and are living here illegally.
There is a daily, continual, invasion of our country and until Trump came along and actually made it a front and center issue, nobody at the national political level gave a damn, especially congress.
YES FOLKS, LET’S GIVE JIM AND FAMILY A CHRISTMAS PRESENT. HE’S NOT GOING TO HAVE A VERY HAPPY CHRISTMAS IF WE DON’T DIG A LITTLE DEEPER AND END THIS FREEPATHON. IMAGE A WORLD WITHOUT FREE REPUBLIC!
True, however, we have to start somewhere and as crazy as it sounds...building a bigger, better wall would be easier to do and would discourage many if they knew they couldn't simply walk across.
In his 2nd term, Trump can go after the myriad of taxpayer paid "stuff" they get in addition to a progression of heavy fines on employers who hire foreign nationals here illegally.
Not even the wall will stop them from coming, as long as the freebie faucet is running full blast.

For the life of me, I don’t understand why this isn’t a major issue. There would be no need of a wall if the aliens were refused ALL public services and people who hired them were put in jail.
Thanks, good info.
