Kind-hearted volunteers running food banks and shelters in the border town of El Paso are begging the Biden administration to help them ease the crisis they have created by allowing thousands of migrants to enter the country every week.
The crisis at the border is escalating to such an extent that 1,050 migrants, predominantly from Venezuela, are arriving every day. They are overwhelming the town, whose residents have always welcomed migrants and provided them with food and resources but who are now struggling to keep up with the demand.
In an impassioned plea for help on Wednesday, the CEO of the Rescue Mission of El Paso, a religious shelter which welcomes the homeless, said no one from Washington DC had been in touch.
He said the sheer volume of people turning up every day is straining the shelter, and that staff fear they cannot feed and clothe everyone who needs it.
The food banks have bare shelves and shelters are bursting with beds. Cots have now been set up in the chapel at the rescue mission to accommodate the extra people.

Declare that all in the city will vote for Republicans and problem will get solved.
ESAD, El Paso. You vote overwhelmingly Dem. Live in the sewer you helped create. Idiots!

When you subsidize or encourage an activity, you will get more of that activity.
Isn’t this Beto’s stomping ground? What is Beto doing about the border crisis?
Begs Biden for help.
Why should he respond?
He is the very reason for this mess and it’s all done intentionally.
Wake up El Paso
These place should start building 12-foot chain link fences, 100 yards apart with a sand layer in between.
Then patrol between them.
simple, and you deal with anyone you find between the two fences.
Its not a permanent solution, but it slows things down. AND IT’S CHEAP.
1050 migrants is about 20 busses.
surely those can be arranged to NY, Chicago, DC/Northern Virginia?
I hear Martha’s Vineyard is nice this time of year.
For like, 44 hours...
Exactly!
I know he’s the President, the Buck Stops Here, and all that, but this man has no idea what day it is. He’s got no idea what is going on down on the border or anywhere else.
Maybe he has a few moments of clarity a day. On a good day.
Where the hell is the military that’s supposed to protect America????
Where/how are people pouring over the border in El Paso? I thought that there were fences there. Are they coming in via the New Mexico border?
Many years ago I spent a summer in El Paso and would ride my motorcycle into New Mexico along the border. At the time it was marked by a four-wire fence with obelisks every mile.
Biden will go to the UN but not to the US southern border.
Yes, they call up 128 National Guard, for just 50 illegals, and they use a military base to store them at. Meanwhile thousands overrun out borders and the Democrat Leadership looks the other way.......
It would more cost affective to charter busses to washington city.
66% Biden to 32% Trump in El Paso.
Bad people there.
What I was thinking. El Pasos is hispanic central is it not?
El Paso is Beto Central.
Illustrates the scary situation Texas is in as the proportion of Hispanics continues to grow.
