cameras are not allowed inside the detention center even basic information about the number of immigrants and how long they're being detained is not released but pictures taken by a democratic congressman show that the conditions inside are terrible especially for kids the republican party is using this as a political tool against the biden administration and his party they are also portraying immigrants as a national security threat. once released its volunteers like rachel who guide them some young asylum seekers are being held in custody over the legal limit of 72 hours all this after an epic journey when all these said it was an odyssey suffering from hunger thirst i hope the sacrifice was worth it and so going to be so out of delta quickly comes a smile since their new life is already started kid.
