The number of unaccompanied minors crossing the U.S. border has skyrocketed over the past year and the Obama Administration announced a new approach to the issue.
Administration officials said Monday that there has been a 90% increase in the number of undocumented immigrants under 18 entering the U.S., with more young girls and children under 13 entering the country than ever before. Because of this the administration wants to ensure that kids are quickly transferred from border control facilities to facilities operated by the Department of Health and Human Services that can better address their housing, educational, and medical needs.
The Obama Administration also requested an additional $1.4 billion to provide relief for unaccompanied immigrant children. Due to the increase in kids illegally crossing the border aloneexpected to reach as high 60,000 this yearthe government expects it will cost $2.28 billion to fund the programs that aid unaccompanied minors.

Obama believes that the USA’s wealth must be redistributed around the globe.
If he loves America — it’s only because it is plump.

The invasion continues.....bolstered by Obama’s EO granting ‘dreamers’ deferred deportation. I thought the ‘dreamers’ were supposed to have been here for years to qualify......oh wait, this is Obama. Obama lies.

Translation...stand by for the Imperial Proclamation that every Mexican citizen under the age of 30 will be given US citizenship on arrival at El Paso and San Yisidro.
But the wellbeing of nascent, human life is not a humanitarian issue to him. Hell, the aborted noobs are target practice for his buddies at PP.

Repatriation of the parents is the solution.

This is why it is time to dispense with calling them illegal aliens or undocumented aliens. What they are is Mexican citizens. Calling them Mexican citizens clarifies things immensely, and shows the stupidity of American politicians giving citizens of other countries “free stuff”, taken from Americans.

And guess who will pay for them for the rest of their lives.

Where are their parents? Did they abandon the kids permanently?
To: pfflier
Clown Prince nobama hates Free America and American Citizens. The psychopath degenerate wants to overwhelm America in every way so that its slide into a banana republic without borders, language and culture can be complete. Don't these illegal alien invaders have parents wherever they came from? Put their illegal alien butts in a bus and drop them in mexico.
