Nancy Pelosi's take:
We Wouldn't Have The Ten Commandments If Immigrant Children Like Moses Were Turned Away
well sure, both things are happening, illegals joined up with illegal relatives, and other illegals dumped on states, refugee camps etc.
article says data show that 85% of the recent waves of illegal kids are now with relatives here in the USA (50% with a parent and the other 35% with a “close” relative presumably aunt or uncle etc.), linked up with their “sponsor” courtesy of the Obamanation
the other 15% (out of 50,000 or 80,000 or whatever)... sure that still amounts to numbers in the thousands (at least 7500) who are being housed on military bases, dumped on the states etc.
It’s not an either/or.... it is both this and that
This 85% figure, if remotely accurate, shows what is mainly happening here — a wave of illegal kids sent to join up with relatives already here illegally. THAT is the key point — they are not “lost” or helpless or hopeless, as described by lying Democrats and media -— they are (overwhelmingly) economic migrants coming here illegally for handouts, better life etc.
I can understand why their families want all the goodies for them, better life and so on, but that does not mean that the USA should bend over and let illegal invasions continue.
