2020 Dems say they will visit Homestead facility holding migrant children

Several 2020 Democratic presidential candidates have said they plan visit a facility in Homestead, Fla., where migrant children are being held as they prepare for the first primary debates in Miami.
Their visits to the facility come amid renewed scrutiny over the treatment of migrant children in the custody of the U.S. government after attorneys told the Associated Press about filthy, dangerous conditions in which children were being held at a border facility in Clint, Texas.
Warren said she saw “children being marched from one to another in single file with guards.”
“There weren’t children playing. There weren’t children laughing the way children usually do when they’re moving from one place to another. There were children who were being marched like little soldiers, like little prisoners,” she said Wednesday.

These look like the camps my people were held in after they were forcibly marched on The Trail of Tears!

To be fair, if the process is sped up then the Dems can't get the optics of visiting them in facilities.

I can’t believe blacks and latinos are too daft to realize they’re being pandered to. It’s really sad and pathetic.

Americans are blowing $500,000 per day in public funds to keep the Homestead Temporary Shelter for Unaccompanied Children in South Miami-Dade running. The shelter opened under Barack Obama to hold children who were showing up to the U.S. border, mostly from Central American countries such as Honduras and El Salvador. It closed in 2017, but New Times first reported in June that the Trump Administration had reopened it with little public disclosure or reporting and had quietly placed more than 1,000 children there.
(As it turns out, documents show multiple politicians from both political parties were told the facility was going to reopen under Trump, but, oddly, forgot to tell anyone.)
Now, the news site Quartz has dug up publicly available budget documents showing just how much money Americans are spending to keep the shelter open: about $17 million every month. According to federal budget documents, the United States has spent $140 million since February to operate the shelter. LINK

Didn't President Obama tell these Illegal Immigrants not to bring their children to the border? Why are they defying him?

Those daft Jewish Americans & Asian Americans vote 70% plus Democrat as well.
Why " pander" to Blacks when they own their votes at nearly 90%?

I can't tell you how much I HATE reading that, knowing that there are so many American children going without so these illegals can be housed and fed hundreds of times better than in the -hithole countries. All of this money is simply going to waste.
Thank you for posting the info!
