You live in HAWAII according to your post. Tell me how many illegals are swimming by your island. I live in AZ three miles from the boarder you're passing gas about. I feel cheated in the last three months I've only seen four myself. Our boarder patrol who stop by daily tell me they've never seen the crossings so low. When the covid started last year the numbers started to drop. No jobs no reason to cross the border they say that is the reason. My pet peeve is people like you posting about a boarder you're a thousand miles away from telling those of us who live beside it every day how terrible it is and the thousands of crosser s we never see, even no footprints in the sand. People from Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota and now HAWAII speaking of the thousands of illegals crossing our property.
You post political crap, Educate yourself . I didn't vote for Obama but i do read reports issued by my government. They make it very clear that The Obama administration deported more illegals and undesirables every year than the Bush Administration . They used every cent of the appropriated funds approved by congress for that action. Bush never used all the funds and removed fewer people. Several private federal expense monitoring groups reported that more were removed under Obama than any other administration in over fifty years.
The Western Journal has been busted more than once for posting false or misleading stories as you use them as a source i see where you get some of the fiction, and lies you pass along as truth.
Your sadly informed about Trump as well. The federal "*******-Cages" you speak of existed. Trump closed the government ones and issued permits to private people to run the places that made the news many times in his four years. No medical, children dead from starvation. One closed near us got national coverage then closed. I wouldn't have left my dog in that place and they got a big fat check every month from Trumps administration. Those facilities run by our government started during the Bush years, they continued until Trump. They had medical people and in ten years of operation there were no reports like those about the private operations started when the federal centers closed. The federal locations kept children with mothers if there was a mom. The separations were entirely done where there were mothers after the Trump licensed private facilities opened. My understanding from our local sources is the federal government is going to operate the facilities much like before, with trained staff and medical people on sight. The contracts have been canceled most of them held by those who gave big checks to Trumps campaign.
The caravans you claim Trump stopped, Bullshit at least three made it to Nogales Mexico our local boarder crossing. They lined the sidewalks on the Mexican side waiting for our boarder officials to review their applications for entry. Oh my they didn't crawl across the boarder by the thousands like Trump said they would. You could see them there every day. Some were admitted because to go back was found to be certain death. Most were turned away because they were truthful about wanting a better life and were found to be under no real threat in their country of birth. The boarder guys here say a very small number after being turned away tried to cross illegally. Most they say were caught based on the total numbers reported by Mexican police and our undercover people who followed them the last hundred miles to our borders.
One boasted over a glass of tea on our porch less than a hundred unaccounted for out of several thousand was a great job by the US and Mexican governments. I would agree.
