There has been a surge in immigrants trying to come over the border into the U.S.. Because of this the facilities that hold these immigrants are starting to fill up. And the Biden Administration is left just playing catchup at this point.
This surge was a huge amount of unaccompanied kids just told to cross the border without their parents. There were around 14,000+ unaccompanied kids that are in U.S. custody. These children are being held in a jail-like facility. This shows just how unprepared the Biden Administration was when they let more and more immigrants into the country as they are still trying to find a place for these children to be held.
There is not much the U.S. can do with these kids besides send them back. It is hard to figure what to do with them without their parents around. Because maybe the parents thought that it was best for the child to just run over the border. But you can’t just release these kids onto the street. To make the situation worse covid is making it so that there is less space for these kids to stay. They have a lot of kids in one facility but seem to be doing good in not craming them together.
In conclusion by the looks of it the surge hasn't peaked yet and is still getting a large amount of unaccompanied children crossing the border. And the Biden Administration is just doing what they do best and that is blaming the Trump Administration for this one too. What do you think?
Do you think they will find an area for these immigrant children? If so where?
How do you think that the children got across the border unaccompanied?

Good topic choice and well written summary Keegan! You could have replied a few more times and on three different days.
I think that they will have to find a place for them. Not sure where exaclty however. If President Biden is going to lift restrictions on the Border, he should be able to handle it. I think that children get accross the Border with assistance from their parents. After all, if a child is born in the U.S., it and their parents can stay here. This is similar in that they are using the excuse that their child is in the U.S. without supervision.
I agree. They have no other choice besides just completely closing the border and sending the kids back.
I don't know if they will ever find a place for these children honestly, it's a very complicated situation. If the parents let them cross the border unaccompanied or they decided to leave their coutry, it's because they probably come from very difficult situations which probably made them very independent from a young age, making them able to cross the border on their own.
I think we should send the children to Bangladesh. If we send the children back to Mexico, then they are just going to cross back over. I wonder why the children's parents are leaving them to run over the border and not following. They are just putting their kids in a more worse situation. I think Biden needs to show strength and needs to tell these Mexicans that they can't do this anymore.
I agree. America cannot stand this many immigrants coming in at once.
I really don't know if they will find a area for these children to stay because with Covid still being a thing it will make it hard along with the constant sending of kids over the border, but I think only time will tell after that point. The children most likely come over with assistance of adults or some form of help, or they might cross over by themselves which I think is unlikely.
I think they will find an area for these immigrant children because they will have to at some point. I think that the children got across the border unaccompanied by their parents telling them to. In the areas where the wall is the little children might be able to fit through.
I think that they will find an area where the children to stay or just make a new one for them. I think that people just help them out or they are at least of age to know what they are doing. Manny underage I think are going to just be accomipaied by somone else.
I do not think that they will find an area for these children. America has so many complications right now I just do not think that we can support so many immigrant children. The Biden Administration has not done anything to control the crisis. They continue to deny questions and blame it on the Trump Administration. So, because of this, I doubt that anything is done anytime soon.
