The Biden administration announced this week that it opened a soft-sided facility for immigrants in Donna, Texas, as Republican lawmakers warn of a "rising crisis" at the U.S.-Mexico border.

For those who do not politican, a soft sided facility is a tent.

 

And as it turns out immigration lawyers are crawling up the Biden administration's ass for holding unacompanied ILLEGAL minors in those "soft sided facilities" (cages in despicable speak) longer than the law allows.

What is glaringly obvious is that because its Biden and not Trump no one is twirling and peeing all over themselves over the cruelty.

No @stumbler
No @thinskin
No @anon_de_plume
Spewing about minors alone in court or ripped from their mommas arms and thrown in cages.

Why is that?

 

So, the despicable hypocrisy is fully exposed.

Remember when @stumbler and @anon_de_plume and all the other get President Trump crowd were twirling and peeing and spewing almost daily on this thread and on this forum about how INHUMANE and BRUTAL and ROTTEN President Trump was, you know, ripping babes from the arms of their mothers at the border and tossing them into cages?

Biden is locking up migrant children. Will the world still care with Trump gone? (yahoo.com)
Biden is locking up migrant children. Will the world still care with Trump gone?

This week, the Biden administration did the unthinkable. It reopened a Trump-era detention site for migrant children. The detention center, a reconverted camp for oil field workers in Carrizo Springs, Texas, is expected to hold 700 children between the ages of 13 and 17, and dozens of kids have already arrived there.

This is an awful development, reminding me of some of the worst abuses of the Trump years. And while we obviously don’t know how this ominous development will play out in the long run, what we do know is this: unaccompanied migrant children deserve compassion, not detention. But rather than seeking out new and better solutions, the Biden administration is instead trying to sell us an image of a kinder, gentler imprisonment.

How else are we to understand the words of Mark Weber, spokesperson for Health and Human Services (HHS), the agency that oversees the welfare of unaccompanied migrant children? Weber told the Washington Post that “the Biden administration is moving away from the ‘law-enforcement focused’ approach of the Trump administration to one in which child welfare is more centric”. That may play well as a soundbite, but how welfare-centric is it to place children in jail in the first place? And if you don’t think it’s a jail, you should know that the “unaccompanied teens sent to the Carrizo Springs shelter will not be allowed to leave the facility”, as reported by the news website BorderReport.com.

The Biden administration is instead trying to sell us an image of a kinder, gentler imprisonment

It gets worse. The camp’s operation will be “based on a federal emergency management system”, where “trailers are labeled with names such as Alpha, Charlie and Echo”, names which are commonly used in military detention practices. (Camp Echo, for example, is a notorious site in Guantánamo Bay.) And while staff members will thankfully not be sporting military gear, the government spokesman makes a point to tell us that they will “wear matching black-and-white T-shirts displaying their roles: disaster case manager, incident support, emergency management” and that “the most colorful trailer is at the entryway, where flowers, butterflies and handmade posters still hang on its walls from Carrizo’s first opening in 2019”.​

So come on all you Trump hating motherfuckers, step up now and tell us how upset you are that president biden/harris is locking up babes in cages.

Or defend biden/harris.

Cmon. You know you want to. Do it. We all know you are hypocrites and liars, no problem with that now. Tell us how humanitarian biden/harris are.

 

Senile Joe blow Biden is putting children in cages!

But seeing how the "big guy" is the one doing it now, people like @stumbler @thinskin @anon_de_plume have no problem with it.

 

You will as long as the criminal Joe Biden is doing it....

 

This is the way Biden treats children, now that he's been elected.

 

And Biden likes this policy so much, he's decided to make it his own.....

 

Oh, stumbler doesn't care how much you point out his hypocrisy and lies.
He hates America, calls it a "shithole country".
That's what stumbler cares about.
destroying America.
Whatever it takes, eh?

 

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/white-house-denies-kids-cages-220159755.html

I've also seen other liberal sources that have stories about this. So, tell me. What do you think should be done? If you arrive is accurate, and that picture of beds is truly real, it doesn't appear to be much of a cage.

Didn't you recently whine about not wasting a scandal?

 

Wow, first I've seen of this and you somehow already know what I'm thinking.

Whatever.

 

So first of all lets review the issue of "cages".
When it was about President Trump the media called them cages and we were treated to all the horrors of "kids in cages". But now its biden/harris and cages are beds, and questions of morality and obligations to unaccompanied minors is the discussion.

Nope.

That facility those biden/harris kids are being tossed into? It was closed by the Trump administration. Cause it wasn't a suitable facility for Trumps kids. Apparently, its suitable for biden/harris kids. Didn't know that, did you? Wasn't part of the "liberal" news feed, was it?

So, hypocrisy.

Now, the question about what to do with em?
The very same thing that any other country does with ILLEGAL migrants.
Pack em up and send em home.

 

This is the photo that accompanies YOUR STORY! The Yahoo Story that YOU posted.

 

You couldn't give two shits about morality or obligations under Trump. As a matter of fact I seem to remember the right wing talking point was "their parents shouldn't have brought them here in the first place".

You only post this to score points... Good on you!

 

Just as I thought. They're just political fodder for you.

 

Beds what the hell. This I have a issue with. Little Fuckers are gonna piss all over them. I want to see infants ripped from their mothers breasts crying locked up in Porta kennels

 

No, @anon_de_plume they are ILLEGAL MIGRANTS.
Exactly what they were when Obama built those cages.
Exactly what they were when Trump was demonized for taking a hard line with them.
Political fodder? They became political fodder when it was Trump.
Remember?
So now biden/harris have this albatross around their neck, after 4 years of their media demonizing President Trump no matter what he did with it. And their problem is, anything they can do has already been condemned by their media. Cause, Trump.

Karmas a bitch, ain't it?

 

OMG, by the look on Jen Psaki's face, she having a hard time spinning and lying for that senile old dolt biden.... Can you imagine the face she makes when she has to change biden's shitty diaper.....



Jen Psaki Gets Another 'Kids in Cages' Question, and Our Intelligence Is Insulted Once Again
By Sister Toldjah | Feb 24, 2021 4:00 PM ET

reported Tuesday on how White House press secretary Jen Psaki was spinning like a top after Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked her about news reports on the Biden administration’s reopening of a temporary facility in Texas for unaccompanied migrant children.


For those who missed it, here is a partial transcript of how that exchange went down:

Doocy: But it’s the same facility that was open for a month in the Trump administration. Summer of 2019 — that is when Joe Biden said, “Under Trump, there have been horrifying scenes at the border of kids being kept in cages.” And Kamala Harris said, basically, babies in cages is a human rights abuse being committed by the United States government. So how is this any different than that?

Psaki: We very much feel that way. And these — are facilities — let me be — let me be clear here. One, there’s a pandemic going on. I’m sure you’re not suggesting that we have children right next to each other in ways that are not COVID safe, are you?

Doocy: I’m suggesting that Kamala Harris said that this facility — putting people in this facility was a human rights abuse committed by the United States government. And Joe Biden said, “Under Trump, there have been horrifying scenes of border” — “at the border of kids being kept in cages.” Now it’s not under Trump. It’s under Biden.

Psaki: This is not kids being kept in cages. This is —

Doocy: But it’s the same facility.

Psaki: This is kids — this is a facility that was opened that’s going to follow the same standards as other HHS facilities. It is not a replication. Certainly not. That’s — that is never our intention of replicating the immigration policies of the past administration.

As my colleague Bonchie noted at the time, the gaslighting from Psaki was very real.

Psaki was asked again today by Doocy about Biden’s ‘kids in cages’ facility, and once again she insulted the intelligence of the American people, this time by proclaiming that one of the biggest differences is that the Biden administration was not ripping kids from the arms of their parents at the border:

“Is it kids in containers instead of kids in cages?” Fox News’ Peter Doocy asked Psaki.

“We have a number of unaccompanied minors coming into the country without their families,” Psaki responded. “What we are not doing is what the last administration did, which was separate those kids, rip them from the arms of their parents at the border.”

Watch the full exchange between Doocy and Psaki below. Note that some of the reasons she gives for reopening the facility are very similar to the ones the Trump administration gave for having to open them in the first place, yet it’s the Trump administration who were the bad guys while Biden is swooping in to save the day or something:

The double standards on this issue from the media and Democrats alike (but I repeat myself) are appalling. Trump got blistered for it but when Biden does it suddenly the narrative changes. And, with few exceptions (like Doocy), the Usual Suspects in the press just play right along. In the process, a lot of people are emotionally manipulated for political gain, retweets, and likes. It’s disgusting.

Clearly Psaki is not willing to give a straight answer on the Biden admnistration’s policy on unacompanied migrant minors at the border, so perhaps this should be the next question Doocy asks her at tomorrow’s briefing:

I bet the spin on her answer to that one would be one for the ages. “Let me circle back’ wouldn’t quite cover it, though.

 

Yes there was definitely a surge plus there are about 69,000 kids held in US custody left over from Trump. The Biden Administration does not want to deport unaccompanied kids or send them back to Mexico alone so opening the facility was the best temporary solution they could come up with in an emergency. With the biggest difference being they do not intend to hold them there. Just put them up in the safest place possible until they can get them with family members or sponsors. And the proof of how difference it is is the access people and the press are already getting to look at them when Trump wouldn't even let members of Congress visit his concentration camps.

But of course the conservative/Republicans are now trying to run the reverse bullshit scam. Like accusing Obama of building the cages Trump used. Which was true the Obama Administration did have emergency holding facilities when they got hit with a surge. But again the difference was those were unaccompanied teenagers. And only held just long enough to get them to family members or foster care. While Trump snatched children out of their parents arms and put them in concentration camps in inhuman conditions and tried to leave them there to rot. While on the other end President Biden is 5 weeks in and facing multiple crises with a surge in unaccompanied minors being just one of them.

On the other hand though.
