CNN has reported that a record number of unaccompanied minors are arriving at the southern border! The numbers are so high that it’s overwhelming the federal government and are running out of space to house all of them.
Last month’s figure exceeded that of Obama in 2014 and Trump in 2019. This doesn’t come as much of a surprise as President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have openly spoken about relaxing the southern border to Mexico, but now it is simply being overwhelmed.
“After President Biden took office, the number of unaccompanied minors arriving at the US-Mexico border began to jump, overwhelming the federal government’s resources and resulting in a scramble to find enough shelter space to accommodate them. Thousands of children were left in jail-like Border Patrol facilities, often for longer than the 72-hour limit set by federal law. March’s figures far exceeded that of previous increases of unaccompanied children at the border, both in 2014 under the Obama administration and in 2019 under former President Trump.”
A Record Number Of Children Are Arriving Unaccompanied At The Border Under President Joe Biden
It is a little surprising to see a post like this come from CNN, as many consider the news source to be very left-leaning and not to look down on the current administration, unfortunately, this situation and stats are hard to avoid.
People commented on the post, “I love how Kamala Harris condemned Obama and Trump for the border situation but when they have the power she laughs it off. People will remember“, “I know this hurt cnn to post”, “Most shocking CNN headline of 2021…y’all report the news now?!?!?” and “That’s what happens when you send out an rsvp to Mexico and all of central and South America inviting them to secure citizenship in unlimited numbers.”
