DHS Releases Over 2K Border-Crossing Adults, Children into U.S.
BREITBART ^ | 3 Jan 2019 | John Binder

Posted on 01/04/2019 2:13:43 AM PST by Evil Slayer

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is releasing from custody more than 2,000 border-crossing adults and the children they arrived with over the course of a few weeks. A DHS official confirmed to Breitbart News that the U.S. Border Patrol and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency is releasing more than 2,000 family units caught at the U.S.-Mexico border, citing a lack of detention space. The border-crossing adults and the children they arrived at the border with will be released and given a court date for an immigration hearing. The adults will be given ankle monitors, though the DHS official says the process of keeping track of border-crossers via ankle monitors is not effective.

Border Patrol and ICE are experiencing major issues with detention space at the Yuma, Arizona sector of the border, as well as in San Diego, California, El Paso, Texas, and the Rio Grande Valley sector of the southern border. The DHS official said there is not nearly enough bed space for family units at border detention facilities, while Border Patrol encounters about 2,100 border-crossers a day with more than 60 percent of those adults bringing children with them in the hope to be quickly released into the interior of the country.

Why have a wall?
A wall will not stop this catch and release.

Build tent cities.
Feed them MREs.
No electricity.
No ice tea.

Someone lied to us about a so called plan to keep these people on Mexico until their asylum requests are reviewed.

We have been Lied to for too long .

Trump knows about this and he hired This woman who is a DC insider and Open Borders stooge .

Why bother with a wall since they are set free here anyways .
The state dept still funds these open borders operations
Ivanka getting her Syrian Muslim refugees still
pouring in here .

All talk and no real action .

EMPTY SUIT BS FROM THE WH .

I read that there are 2000 entries a week.

While everyone is talking about a wall, border control has collapsed.

That caravan has all the attention bunched up in one place, a feint to allow the real incursions elsewhere.

Catch and release is ordered by the courts. DHS is following what the U.S. judges say they must do.

Looks to me like DHS is flooding the sanctuary cities - giving these cities what they wished for. Maybe next time, they might be more careful with their wishes.

Two thousand more criminals roaming the streets. Add a few zeroes and you’re closer to the true number they released.

And that is why I’ve never gotten excited about this wall talk. There are so many other ways they are getting in that a wall is just a symbol. Until the government gets serious about illegal immigration, which I don’t see happening, they’ll continue to be let in, yes let in, in droves. Wall or no wall.
I’m just sick of the lies from all of them while they stand up and spout nonsense to us.

I’m not suggesting this is a solution to the larger issue, but could they at least be required to wear ankle monitors until they show up for court?

This is the reason someone is paying mega bucks to round up large numbers to come at once. To overwhelm the system, triggering laws and regulations about holding times and numbers allowed.

This is being done on purpose to force this to happen, politically to turn Trump supporters against him- long term to force open borders, amnesty.

The dims have been working for decades to get the laws and regulations, previous court decisions in place that force this to happen.

We have to get the wall, and we have to convince Mexico to close their Southern border. Mexico has said they will do that but to my knowledge it has not happened yet.

Per the article it says.....

The adults will be given ankle monitors, though the DHS official says the process of keeping track of border-crossers via ankle monitors is not effective.
