President Biden caught illegally holding migrant children in detention, media blackout

The mainstream media is being silent as the Biden administration detains unaccompanied migrant children longer than legally allowed, the head of the Border Patrol union claims.

National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd revealed that as of Monday, Border Patrol officials held more than 800 Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) in custody.

Despite the legal requirement to release the children to other federal agencies within 72 hours, more than 212 remained in custody longer than was legal under current laws.

“Today, [White House Press Secretary] Jen Psaski said the Administration could not hold the children in other locations due to the Covid protocols including social distancing,” Judd told reporters.

“But what she didn’t tell the media was that the children in [Border Patrol’s] custody were being held in conditions that have nearly no way to social distance.”

Breitbart.com reports: Psaki’s remarks came in a Tuesday press briefing in response to questions from Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy. Forbes tweeted a video of the exchange.

To be clear, Judd states that the Biden administration is holding unaccompanied minors in Border Patrol custody longer than the law allows in conditions where social distancing cannot be maintained in order to keep social distancing in other federal facilities.

“The hypocrisy from the left and the mainstream media truly shows they care nothing for the children they used as pawns to attack President Trump.”  Judd said.

“Today Jen Psaski said ‘Customs and Border Control’ [not Customs and Border Protection] continue to transfer unaccompanied children to HHS’ Office of Refugee and Resettlement (ORR),” the Border Patrol union leader explained. “She went to great lengths to explain that due to the pandemic and social distancing, ORR only has capacity for a certain number of children.”

“What she didn’t explain is that the children that ORR doesn’t have that capacity to take are left in facilities far worse than those of HHS,” Judd continued. “In fact, they are being held in the same locations they accused the Trump Administration of inhuman acts when they said he was holding ‘kids in cages.’”

U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) attacked the Biden administration for their expanded policy of opening detention facilities in South Texas, Breitbart’s John Binder reported.

“This is not okay, never has been okay, never will be okay — no matter the administration or party,” the New York congresswoman wrote.

Despite shortages of detention space, the Biden administration, through the U.S> Border Patrol, issued instructions to immediately release migrants in South Texas in order to deal with overcrowding in temporary holding facilities, Breitbart’s Randy Clark reported Tuesday night.

The continuing increase in the apprehension of unaccompanied minors is creating a crisis for the Biden administration along the Southwest border.

The number of Unaccompanied Alien Children illegally crossing the border from Mexico into the U.S. is increasing from month to month, according to reports from U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials. In January 2021, Border Patrol agents apprehended 5,871 unaccompanied minors. This is up from 4,995 in December 2020 and 3,076 in January 2020.

Breitbart Texas reached out to U.S. Customs and Border Protection and Border Patrol for confirmation of the numbers of migrants being held in custody by Border Patrol and how long they are being held. An immediate response from officials was not available by the time of this article’s publication.

People just dont get it Jyst dont understand what and who evil is in the community .Its a big shame But it’s because after Adam and eve were tempted then the Gods said uhoh now they know good and evil they will discover the tree of life at the centre of the garden and will become Gods like us .And so their defense is to make Adam and eve descendants so stupid that they dont know good from evil .To deceive them so they dont find the tree of life and dont become Gods. Be as wise as serpentts and as gentle as doves
