DoD; America’s daycare center
Chief Tango sends us a link to an article from the Washington Post in which Josh Hicks wonders where the Obama Administration has sequestered the tens of thousands of Immigrants flooding across our Southern border.
The Obama administration has estimated that the U.S. will pick up 60,000 unaccompanied children at the Southwest border by the end of September, although revised Border Patrol estimates now put the figure closer to 90,000. Either way, the numbers have been doubling since at least 2012…
[…]
In Congress, GOP lawmakers have questioned the administration’s decision to house thousands of the unaccompanied children at military bases. The plan has been in effect since May, but Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel expanded it last week by approving a request to house an additional 5,000 children, in addition to the 3,600 already already held at military facilities.
Oklahoma’s congressional delegation, consisting of seven Republicans, called on the administration to reconsider the plan on Monday, saying it could impede the mission of Fort Sill, an Army base in the state.
The administration is also holding children at Joint Base San Antonio Lackland in Texas and at Naval Base Ventura County-Port Hueneme in California, according to the HHS fact sheet.
We thought the 90’s were bad when the military held the hands of third world shit holes while they joined the rest of the world, now we’ve gone to opening day care centers for the third world in our own country. I guess the Joint Training Center deployments will be cycling around and the troops will train in diaper-changing and formula preparation.
Democrat governors like Hickenlooper and O’Malley are turning away illegals, sensing how unpopular that would be among voters, while Hagel keeps taking on more and more. I’ve read that the invasion was started by coyotes trying to drum business, and the Obama Administration is more than happy to make the rumor come true so the coyotes can get paid.
Pew Research says that the number of children younger than 12 years old who are apprehended at the border has increased 117% since last year.
The Associated Press reports that the feds arrested 192 people yesterday who were involved in coyote business;
The arrests, which took place under a crackdown called “Operation Coyote,” took place over the last month and were part of a 90-day effort targeting smuggling groups.
The White House has complained that smugglers are exploiting U.S. policies that, in practice, allow Central American kids to stay for years or indefinitely once they arrive, and it has proposed increasing penalties for smugglers.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said it also took into custody 501 immigrants in the country illegally. It said it seized the money from 228 bank accounts held by suspected human- and drug-smuggling groups.
Good start, but it’s all just a drop in the bucket if you’re not turning them back at the border.

W-T-F!! Ummm. . . . wasn’t it Teh Red Shed (errr, White House) and/or their Kongressional bedmates that put those policies into place in the first place?
Trust a politician (any politician) to not look beyond the end of his/her/its nose at any long term consequences of policies and laws.
The Immutable Law of Unintended Consequences is Irrevocable!
Someone please explain to me why all those Russian and Polish immigrants came here through LEGAL channels after the end of the USSR, got along with their neighbors, generally didn’t steal stuff or form gangs (I’m taking into account the Russian mafia guys), and in general became hard-working productive people who are here LEGALLY?
And please speak slowly, using terms I can understand.
Can we reopen Ellis Island?
Delilah T. I think it is simple. They saw America from a distance and saw a land of freedom and opportunity to work and raise their children in safety and have a better future. They wanted to contribute coming from a place where their contribution was conscripted and meaningless. South of the border, every cell phone call from relative in the U.S. go something like this. “Everything here is free. Free houses, free food, no work, just act like you can’t speak English and they get you an interpreter. All their signs are even in Spanish too. Just get here anyway you can and the government will take care of you and all your medical needs forever. Every time you have another baby, they give you more money. Bring the whole family. Or send the teenagers because they call them children and take pity on them and then we’ll demand they let the rest of the family in.”
They could care less for contributing anything to America except taking up space in the grocery store aisle in front of me with all 7 kids. They have a “you owe me and I want mine” demanding mentality learned from the generations before who came here illegally. It is only going to become worse, until America decides to stop it. This along with other heavy social programs will if left unchecked, cripple this nation. The day is coming and soon I fear though I pray not, when something will happen in America and it will cause us to take a long needed stand of “Americans, legal citizens first and foremost in every respect”.
RIP, America. You were a great country. We’re going to miss you.
You claim this is a “christian nation!’ So what children would christ send back to central american countries whith corrupt regimes set up by reagan that have degenerated into hell holes. Except for nicaurga where reagan was able to install a corrupt government thats why the children are not coming from there!
Oh hell – who woke up the baby!! Sounds like his diaper needs changing….
His diaper isn’t the only part of him that’s full of crap, nbcguy54.
So my question is this. When all of the illegals finally ruin our system and way of life and turn it into a shithole like the one they came from, what then? Because that is what is going to happen. Where do we go from there, VWP? Humans are one of the most destructive parasites on the planet, and you’re telling us we have to take more than we already have? We already have too many people in our country, the water is getting scarce, so is food, so is simple SPACE, and you want us to take on more?
What is it with you and train wrecks, bubba?
There you go again, PN – expecting logic and intelligence from someone who’s obviously mentally functionally equivalent to a trained monkey who can transcribe leftist talking points without understanding either a word he’s typing or the world around him.
I didn’t know you were pro-abortion.
Only in the retroactive sense to get rid of you, oxygen thief.
Might wanna check your facts there fuck face. These “kids” are coming from countries led by leftist assholes. Once again you’ve proven yourself to be quite the dipshit. Go away and let the adults talk.
I said this yesterday, but since you reposted the exact same thing, I shall repost, as well.

Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s, render unto God that which is Gods.
At no point did Jesus suggest that laws should be broken. In fact, he said that laws should be followed.
Caesar declares a border. So, Christians should respect that border. God declares that children should be helped. So, Christians should help the children.
So, tell me, why should we not simply help the children and then send them home to respect the borders that Caesar has declared? Or, do you believe Caesar’s will to be more important than God’s?
All three were stooge governments for reagan’s war on nicuraga and elsalvdor the sandinistas fought off bonzo and his drug dealers ollie north and eden pastore so the children don’t have to flee nicuraga! Not so much about the christian nation anymore?
So, why don’t these kids flee to “nicuraga” (wherever that is-you’ll note our master scholar here misspelled it not once, but twice)?
They’re coming from El Salvador; a leftist country you drooling half-tard. By the way, Nicaragua is also a leftist country you colossal moron. If you’re going to present an argument at least get your facts straight. You don’t give a shit about these “kids” or minorities for that matter. You and your ilk have done a great job oppressing them though. VWP, keep up the great work in service of the country you worthless fuck.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but not their own facts. In other words, you’re a dumbass.
Let me get this straight. Are you now advocating that we put our noses into the internal politics of other countries?
Also, aren’t those also Christian nations? And, yes, I am capitalizing Christian because that’s how it is spelled. It is considered a proper or identifying name.
You are right, Vietnametc. Most of them come from Stevedore and Esperanto and are indeed refugees from sardines.
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
That pretty much covers it.
She does NOT say “Give me your pimps, your gangs and drug dealers, your hustlers looking for an easy free ride”!
Cock Mole, if you are so adamant about assisting thoe poor refugees take your ass down to the nearest ICE office and sponsor a family. That means you help them settle in and fit in without sucking the government tit.
Then again you are the typical hippie socialit scumbag. You are all about handouts as long as it dont come from your clutchpurse. You can’t cut into your weed and doritos money.
Shitbag.
On the news wire today is a story about illegal immigrants PROTESTING OUTSIDE THE WHITE HOUSE. My reaction? I laughed. According to The Washington Times, illegal immigrant protesters also planned to demonstrate outside the White House on Monday afternoon, to call on immigration groups to boycott any administration meetings until illegal immigrants are included in those talks.
So, they are here illegally but ICE won’t touch them, a fact about which they are fully aware. So, they protest in DC to demand that THEY be included in some talks. The world is upside down.
