Dedicated To Restoring Our Government to Citizens' Control

Cagle Post: A Real Crisis On The Southern Border

We are in the middle of a humanitarian crisis in the United States. There are thousands of illegal immigrant children who have crossed our southern border and are inside of these United States. Now the Obama Administration and this nation are faced with finding a solution and a place for these unaccompanied minors.

Democrat Representative Henry Cueller of Texas said earlier this week that Obama risks having a “Katrina moment” if he continues to ignore this situation by not only not visiting the border, but addressing the nation about this issue and attempts to find a solution to this problem. Not only that, but Oklahoma Republican Representative Jim Bridenstine was denied entry recently by the Health and Human Services Department into a facility that was temporarily housing over 1,000 illegal immigrant minors in Oklahoma. After he was denied access, he drove to another holding center where he was again stopped from gaining entry. This is outrageous behavior for the federal government to bar a member of the House Armed Services Committee from this military base.

In January of 2013, then-White House Press Secretary Jay Carney echoed the words of President Obama declaring “our borders now are more secure than they have ever been in history.” The events of these past weeks and months clearly prove the Obama White House was once again lying. As a nation, we have been trying to have a conversation about our illegal immigration crisis but the time for talk is over. It’s time to act.
