Trump Requests Detention Space, Tent Cities to Detain 12K Illegal Aliens
Breitbart ^ | 1 Jul 2018 | John Binder

Posted on 07/01/2018 8:08:55 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

President Trump’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is seeking to house and detain up to 12,000 illegal aliens in Department of Defense facilities. In a letter to the Defense Department, DHS officials have asked that enough detention space be made available for the agency to detain up to 12,000 illegal aliens, specifically border crossing family units.

DHS officials say that if the Defense Department does not have the facilities to house that number, DHS is requesting that the agency identify land space to build “semi-separate, soft-sided camp facilities capable of sheltering up to 4,000 people, at three separate locations,” the letter states.

Preferably, DHS officials say they want these tent cities built in regions closest to the U.S.-Mexico border, in either Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, or California.

At the least, DHS officials are requiring that facilities be found and converted or tent cities be built in the next 45 days to accommodate 2,000 illegal aliens.

For weeks, the Trump administration has worked closely with the Pentagon to find more detention space for border crossers in order to at least temporarily end the process known as “Catch and Release,” where illegal aliens are released into the U.S. while they await their immigration hearings.

Did Mexico refuse them “asylum”?

We need a plan for when they send a million at once, which can be expected to happen within a year.

There should be detention space for at least 50,000, or even 100,000 at any one time.

Put the tents on Maxine Waters front and back lawns. Also house them in every room of Liz Warren’s 4000SF home in Boston. Or how about Jerry Browns 50 acre ranch in Sacramento?

Forget it.

Rather, as Trump himself said:

When people come into our Country illegally, we must IMMEDIATELY escort them back out .....

This is nuts. No tent cities. No “processing” BS. Just send them packing back to where they came from. This can’t be coming from Trump. This is essentially — “we can process them better than Obama”

Why not must be our statement to anyone wanting our votes this November especially Republicans since we know where the D’s stand already.
