ICE drops off almost 200 more migrants in El Paso

One-hundred-eighty-six more migrants were released in downtown El Paso, Texas by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Christmas Day, reports the CBS affiliate there, KDBC-TV. That came after approximately 400 were released in the southwest Texas city in the two days before Christmas.

Democratic Congressman Beto O'Rourke, who represents El Paso, said he'd been told some 500 more would be released there Wednesday.

ICE said in a statement earlier this week the mass releases were designed to ensure families weren't held longer than it's allowed to detain them, and blamed "decades of inaction by Congress" that resulted in the government being "severely constrained in its ability to detain and promptly remove families with no legal basis to remain in the U.S."

Do they “drop” them off at some random corner? The citizens of El Paso should go nuts on them for dropping them off without any of the information about them as the citizens of El Paso have to show proof of. Like drivers licenses and birth certificates.


No, they are being dropped off at the downtown bus station, then ‘sponsors’ take them to places like the Annunciation House....

Catholic churches are collecting clothing and other donations, from parishioners, for them.

Why is Gov Abbott even allowing these illegal aliens in to TX????

So they are released meaning what? Catch and release? Released as in, “you’re free to go. Enjoy the United States you are now Guatamericans”?

Cant Gov Abbott order welfare agencies to suspend outlays of freebies and tax dollars to these invaders?

Yep. Because they brought a child with them and are a family.

Drop them off in Hawaii. They would probably have to stay there.

Naw they’d be on our dime. Find some other place.
