The Obama administration recently released 760 illegal immigrant children to sponsors in the Volunteer State without any warning, the governor charged.

 

There was not so much as a text message or tweet.

 

“It is unacceptable that we became aware via a posting on the HHS website that 760 unaccompanied children have been released by the Office of Refugee Resettlement to sponsors in Tennessee without my administration’s knowledge,” the governor wrote in a strongly-worded letter to President Obama.

 

...

 

t’s been the Obama administration’s standard operating procedure to release the illegals into states without notifying local or state government officials.

If I was the Governor of Tennessee I would load them up and drop them off in front of the white house..

Same. Maybe word got out that they have really amazing lunches now?

I think they dropped them in Pulaski.

Kentucky already is accommodating ~300 of the children at the center of the controversy. I'm surprised no one here knew that.

Assuming they got there in two vans?

George Will said on Sunday we should take all of the refugee children and spread them out across the US.

 

Of course, we should also let those counties/states know but I digress....

Whether you agree or not with it being done is one thing, the fact that they did it without given them notice is inexcusable IMO.

Not as much as I hate myself for posting it. But it was necessary.

IF it were a good acceptable right thing to do dont you think they wouldnt be hiding these drop offs like a best kept secret ? And screw George Will !

I already have a tough of enough time providing for my OWN family, but hell why not add more to it, we already pay for the lazy free-loaders from our own country.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer July 25:

 

Of the thousands of unaccompanied children crossing illegally into the United States, 842 have ended up in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana.

 

Ohio received the most at 360. Indiana received 245 and Kentucky received 237, according to the Department of Health and Human Service's Administration for Children and Families (ACF).

 

On Thursday Catholic Charities Southwestern Ohio announced it applied for a Health and Human Services grant that would allow 50-100 immigrant children to come to Cincinnati.
