FEDS TO OPEN $50 MILLION RESORT FOR ILLEGAL CHILDREN – Complete With Tennis Courts, Sauna & Pools
The Gateway Pundit ^ | 7-16-2014 | Kristinn Taylor

Welcome to America!

The Obama administration has awarded a $50 million contract to a charitable group to buy a Texas resort hotel and transform it in to a 600 bed facility for juvenile illegal aliens.

palm aire resort
The beautiful Palm Aire resort and hotel has an indoor Olympic sized pool and an outdoor pool. Free Wi-Fi and cable TV are included in the simply decorated guest rooms.

The Palm Aire Hotel and Suites is set to be sold to Baptist Child & Family Services (BCFS) operating under a federal contract, pending local government approval, according to reports from Weslaco, Texas where the hotel is located. Weslaco is a few miles north of the Rio Grande in Hidalgo County.

The resort hotel for illegal alien children is reportedly the ‘first in the nation’.

The Palm Aire includes tennis courts, a laundromat and a snack bar.

The plan is to have the hotel ready for illegal alien children ages 12 to 17 by October 1st of this year, a mere two-and-half months from now. It is expected the average stay will be about fifteen days.

The Palm Aire Hotel and Suites currently advertises amenities such as two outdoor swimming pools—one Olympic sized—Jacuzzis, sauna, steam room, two racquetball courts, outdoor tennis courts, picnic area with grills and a fitness center with twenty machines and free weights.

A luxurious fitness center is on site at the Weslaco Palm Aire Hotel and Suites. Guests can also wind down in the sauna after a long trip.

Attracted to the space for outdoor recreation at the Palm Aire Hotel and Suites, BCFS spoke of building a soccer field at the hotel and adding a perimeter fence.

BCFS plans to employ 650 people at the Palm Aire Hotel and Suites, which would mean slightly over one worker per illegal alien child. According to the BCSF Website, the charity’s jobs pay from $10 to $45 per hour.

KRGV-TV quoted a BCFS spokeswoman about the purpose of buying the Palm Aire Hotel and Suites:

“It’s going to be an intake facility, which serves as a lot like a hospital emergency room,” Krista Piferrer, BCFS VP External Affairs said.

“”We’ve all seen the photos and the videos of children in crowded Border Patrol facilities. What this site is going to allow to happen is quickly move those children out of Border Patrol cells and triage them,” Piferrer said.”

BCFS plans for the facility to be “completely self-contained” with Piferrer telling KRGV-TV, ‘medical staff will be on hand so children with diseases or injuries will not be transferred to local hospitals.’

Piferrer told the Valley Morning Star the Palm Aire Hotel and Suites facility would ‘(provide) medical and mental health care, on-site educational programs, recreational programs and case management.’

According to a Hidalgo County commissioner, the BCFS contract for the Palm Aire Hotel and Suites is an annual one worth $50 million per year. It is not part of the $3.7 billion emergency funding for the illegal alien invasion requested by the Obama administration as the bill hasn’t yet passed but it is a good indication of where the money will go.

Why don’t they just put the kids in the Overlook Hotel, high up in the beautiful Colorado Rockies?

How many millions of brochures of this luxury hotel are being mailed to central america as we speak?

Will there be immigration judges there to put them on planes back home once the kids are all fixed up?

Can I have 50million to go build me a hotel in Honduras?

The feds tried to put 2,000 illegals in a partially closed mental institution in small town Southbury CT. Supposedly, governor Malloy rejected their offer. If they put 2,000 illegals in that town they would probably come close to outnumbering the children in the town's school system.

Like your idea....but, it’s Weslaco, not Westlaco.

Well... crum. Thanks for the correction. My only excuse is that this whole thing has me so PO-d I can't see straight!

he’ll fight hard to keep this resort from opening &/or being funded with OUR tax $$, right? >sarc<

Beck is an idiot. In fact, anyone who can't see they're being used for tools by the defacto amnesty crowd is an idiot!

Your tale sounds something like my story of connected dots except in my story the father is not ‘black’. Instead the sperm father is a dark skinned Indonesian guru and the father of record is/was from Kenya. Long story with many dots including a particular one for Hawaii’s birth record keeper who die in a mysterious plane crash just off Molokai.

I wonder what will happen to current residents ... booted out or hired to help.

Where's Gov Perry on this???

Why isn't he stopping this, like other Gov's have done/tried to?

Not to mention, every teenage girl there will get pregnant and guess what? Uunless they are deported before giving birth, their babies will be U.S. citizens.

No problem as long as it can be used as an indoctrination, re-education center.

Good question. Other than some photo ops at the border and calling out some law enforcement, all I've heard is him wanting the national guard. I understand that in a way since the feds already owe Texas millions for what we've already spent on 'their' problem.

But the last thing we need to do is give them permission to come down here and muck around.

Perry needs to call out the STATE guard, close the border and tell the feds it will get reopened when they pay the bill.

Who are people going to vote for when our Government officials are all in
collusion against America? All Voters have a some serious problems to fix.

This may be a turning point for the good of educating those Americans
who think voting is just a time when they get a free beer $15 and a pack of cigs.

This article needs to be tweeted to Gov Perry asking why he’s allowing this.

Other states (blue states...ha!...imagine that!) are turning these illegals away. Why isn’t TX?

Why are we allowing a resort to be built, in TX, for these illegals??

This child immigrant fiasco will teach them Republicans to
stand in my way as I fundamentally transform this country.
