Overcrowding at Border Patrol stations in South Texas has become so acute in recent days that U.S. authorities have taken the rare step of using aircraft to relocate migrants to other areas of the border simply to begin processing them, according to three Homeland Security officials.
U.S. Border Patrol Chief Carla Provost testifies during a Senate hearing about the border on May 8 in Washington. One official said the U.S. government has resorted to using aircraft because all available buses were already in use and authorities needed every available transportation option. To alleviate overcrowding in holding cells, the Border Patrol in recent weeks has begun releasing migrants directly from its custody, instead of waiting for ICE to pick them up and either detain or release them.
Homeland Security officials view the direct release of single adults as a red line, because they say that demographic group has the most potential to be deterred by enforcement efforts.

Yeah, but at least there’s no crisis at the border.
Maybe jobs would keep them at home. 45 could have his ties & maga hats made in central america instead of china.
How can this be? The democrats told me there was no border crisis!
Send them right back home on those planes.
It is a business to Trump. Someone to play with
California,Seattle, NewYork, Philly perfect for illegals. I would put thousands there.
Migrants? Really.? The accurate term is invading criminal illegal alien takers.
Follow the money. Who is making money on this nonsense Donnie is a con
Democrats hate America
I’m guessing this administration uses Boeing 737 Max to transport migrants.

U.S. Border Patrol Reports Another Surge of Arrests at Southern BorderU.S. Border Patrol reported another surge of arrests at southern border, including more than 58,000 people traveling as families in April So, realDonaldTrump is FAILING? Suggest our progressive friends listen to our border guards about need for walls at certain strategic sections to direct illegals to where they can be more effectively monitored via drone & other electronic surveillance. If this isn't crisis, not sure how high number needs to be. Merkel's Germany2015. Social costs ( radicalization & crime) will be higher than the financial burden. America is one of the most inequality societies of advanced economies. Toxic cocktail the liberal oligarchy must Not underestimate & they decide election2020

Border Patrol arrested nearly 99,000 migrants in AprilBorder Patrol arrested nearly 99,000 migrants last month — a number that the agency’s chief said is “off the charts compared to recent years” Bullshit.
