Secret Department of Homeland Security/Immigration and Customs Enforcement holding facilities have largely fallen out of the news over the last months of 2021 with a curious level of speed and efficiency. Where these were being discussed and exposed almost weekly in the waning days of the Trump administration and even quite deeply into the Biden-Harris regime, all reporting has subsequently ceased in the mainstream media. Have the holding facilities closed? Have the children been released or returned to their countries of origin? No. Absolutely not. We’ve simply stopped talking about them and moved on to our next outrage fix.
Independent journalist Adam Housley tweeted about the secretive nature of the Biden-Harris regime’s greatest embarrassment in October.
This should concern you. There's a group that wants to give these kids a backpack and maybe a toy for comfort. Many have come alone from Central America. No matter your views on immigration, these are children and I can only imagine how scared and scarred they are.

Then and Now: The Migrant Holding Facilities Haven’t Gone Away
For many journalists though, such as those with GOP Newsfeed and The Washington Examiner, and many conservative members of Congress, the battle hasn’t ended and the fight to stop housing these illegal immigrants and instead send them back to their home countries is ongoing.
The Washington Examiner reported, “Indiana Sen. Todd Young told Secrets that there has been a 45% surge in children that entered the United States unaccompanied by an adult being sent to the Hoosier State. In one case, 19 were sent to Iowa and then put on a bus to other cities, including Fort Wayne, Indiana, to meet up with guardians.”
Indiana Sen. Young added, “The administration’s only giving lip service to our border crisis. They think that simply asking migrants not to illegally enter our country it’s sufficient when clearly it’s not, and the continued crippling influx at the border proves it’s not,”
Sen. Young also noted that illegal border crossings exploded by 674% in a year as of May 2021. As recently as March photos were still emerging of the tent city in Donna, TX at the US-Mexico Border that was reportedly housing 1,000. From what we can tell, little has changed, there are still children housed there in horrific conditions rather than being reunited with their parents back home as reported by Project Veritas before they were silenced by Twitter.

The illegal immigrants are kept on the move, transported in the night to cities all over the country. Fox17 Nashville published a startling expose May 20th from an anonymous source who told them,
“There are drop-offs in small towns and big cities all along the routes. I don’t know if they’re going into other processing centers. In some cases, family members are waiting to find these children and there have been some emotional reunions. But my understanding in a number of these cases, these kids are fresh across the border. Whether they’re going to sponsors, family members, I don’t know. They have intentionally not shared a lot of information with us. They don’t want this to get out,” he said.
“The bus comes through in the middle of the night. The kids get on a different bus because of DOD regulations. The bus goes another 8 or 9, 10 hours, they’ll make a couple stops along the way. I don’t know where they’re going. Then they’ll get on another bus, go another 8 or 9 hours. So they have chained all of these companies together. They go from one bus company to another bus company to another bus company. It’s very sad.”
It hasn’t stopped… we’ve just stopped paying attention to it and that’s great news for the Biden-Harris regime.
