With the open border policies of the Biden administration, arrivals of unaccompanied immigrant children have tripled and are at record levels. The cages built by the Obama administration are all full or not in use and they are now forced to use shipping containers with barred windows. This is incredibly sad.

It is. Bars on the windows and all.

Even worse they are now blocking the press from visiting any of the sites. Considering they don't have enough room as it is, it's impossible to know how bad it really is.

Only if you do not consider that those three articles cited by the OP were likely cherry-picked solely for their political shock value and not for informational purposes.

Anyone who has looked into the reality of converting shipping containers into homes for the homeless will see that while not luxurious, a container home can have all the amenities of a 158 square foot efficiency apartment.

I have started a thread on how shipping containers are really being used
HERE.

Now the obvious question is: What sort of containers are being supplied?

It seems the Democrats are having similar problems that the Republicans had.
However, now that the borders are open, wouldn't that suggest the problem has grown in magnitude?

I am not saying it is right or wrong, btw. 8)

Do those shipping containers have bars on the windows? Did you take a look the pictures in the WAPO piece?

I do not understand hundreds of untested people allowed across the border during the worst world-wide plague ever.

Yeah....I'm surprised they don't get at least the "rapid" test.

You are being too rational.
Engage your 'feelings", and all will be OK. 8)
