[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump created the humanitarian crisis at the border. Other than awarding contracts to cronies for what are essentially new prisions, the rest is noise.

Note, we have heard NOTHING of this "emergency" in months.[/quote]
It will suddenly become a crisis again right in time for the next election.[/quote]

Its a crisis right now. Or are people still in denial about this?[/quote]

I just love the people denying there is any crisis at the border.  It's too bad bus loads of migrants aren't brought straight to their neighborhoods so they can experience this crisis up close and personal.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) detained 109,144 migrants along the boundary with Mexico last month, a 6 percent increase from March, as monthly arrests reached their highest point since 2007. [b]Unauthorized border crossings have more than doubled in the past year, and they are on pace to exceed 1?million on an annual basis, as Guatemalan and Honduran families continue streaming north in record numbers with the expectation they will be quickly processed and released from custody.[/b]
“Our apprehension numbers are off the charts,” Carla Provost, chief of the Border Patrol, said in testimony to senators in Washington on Wednesday afternoon. “We cannot address this crisis by shifting more resources. It’s like holding a bucket under a faucet. It doesn’t matter how many buckets we have if we can’t turn off the flow.”[/quote]
