Stunning: DHS solicited bids for vendor to handle 65,000 unaccompanied minors -- IN JANUARY!
American Thinker ^ | June 20, 2014 | By Thomas Lifson

Posted on 06/20/2014 2:03:25 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

The Obama administration’s claim to have been surprised by the wave of children flooding over out borders may turn out to be another political lie of the year. Sundance of Conservative Treehouse noticed a very peculiar advertisement:

On January 29th of this year, the federal government posted an advertisement seeking bids for a vendor contract to handle “Unaccompanied Alien Children“.

Not just any contract mind you, but a very specific contract – for a very specific number of unaccompanied minors: 65,000.

• Why would DHS and ICE be claiming “surprise” by the current influx of unaccompanied minors on the border in June, when they were taking bids for an exact contract to handle the exact situation in January?

• Secondly, how could they possibly anticipate 65,000 unaccompanied minors would be showing up at the border, when the most ever encountered in a previous year was 5,000 total ?

Railroad tracks are easy to destroy, and slow to repair. A sensible administration would see this as a target rich environment - if precision strikes on appropriate presidential palaces and such didn’t turn the tide first, or perhaps a few well-placed nukes.

Can’t be some solar firm. Truth is no firm is set up to meet the demands of the contract.
I said i was way low but 500 per diem is crazy high.

I guess the Border Patrol was the lowest bidder and won the contract.

So what’s there goal? I thought they’d have a better chance getting amnesty going under the radar.

You can be sure they do plenty under the radar. Probably have the next two or three dozen EO's already planned for val/jar to auto-pen.

My guess is that the have been doing a lot of things lately just to piss us off. Like today when Biden and Zero both went to Mexico spoke with the president of maaeeecooo and neither one brings up the problem of our Marine stuck in a shit-hole Mexicon jail.

This is not a mistake,not something they forgot, its done on purpose to piss us off!!Same with the trade of four big time Taliban terrorist leaders for a deserter,the IRS not even bothering to get inventive with their lies. It's all a sort of in your face type of attitude!

The goal?

Try and get us to do something violent so they can change the story of their constant screw-ups to our violence which would quickly become the story. Martial law? Who knows>If they can get away with it for sure. Probably somewhat less than that.

They have us played at every level and they know what to expect from us know who we will react to almost anything they do and usually are not disappointed.

These guys are super slick we need to spend more time figuring them out. They already have our number.

Democrats should go into hiding while they still can. This will end their party.

Our government IS coyote. And moving money out of the US is the premier prerequisite for fundamentally transforming the country into Venzuela. We have to be made broke and dependent.

Does anyone know or is there anyway to find out who won this contract? I have tried several searches but can’t seem to find it...

If we had half a brain we would boycott all things Mexico. Don’t buy anything with a Mexicon label on it don’t visit there! Don’t have anything to do with these bastards.

“Grab a BUNCH of CONSERVATIVES from the hill......”

I see a slight problem with your strategy.

That's funny if it weren't so tragic. The likes of Michelle Bachmann. et al have been “punished and tossed off important committees” just because they are conservative.

You're right. The Dems would have upchuck shoemer standing with a bunch of Patty Murray types, Johnson who thought Guam was going to tip over and other gerrymandered scum behind him and the press eats it up. sigh. We must keep fighting.

This is human trafficking, btw.

The Obama administration and the DHS is running a coyote service.

Obama is the kingpin trafficker. The Democrats are the recipients of the services of these children, namely, future political patronage.
