These covert operations are being coordinated with our Department of Defense (DoD) and Department of Health and Human Services (HHS):
Why Is The Biden Regime Sending Planeloads of Illegal Immigrant Minors To Red States? Why Are They Keeping Members Of Congress In The Dark About Their Covert Operations?
…
Where, exactly, are these illegal immigrant children being sent? Based on the stellar work by Judicial Watch, it appears that these kids are being placed in Red (majority Republican) states. The decision by the radical Demcorat Party to pack red states with illegal aliens may not shock you, but don’t worry, it gets worse…
From Judicial Watch – In an apparent effort to avoid public scrutiny, the Biden administration is transporting planeloads of illegal immigrant minors in the middle of the night then busing them to cities in the southeast.
Even members of Congress representing the impacted districts are being kept in the dark about the covert operations and the Department of Defense (DOD) is contracting big tour buses to move the migrants to nearby states once they land, presumably from the southern border region. The alarming details are featured in a well-sourced news report broadcast by a Tennessee media outlet this week. The segment—and accompanying article—features videos of planes arriving at a Chattanooga private jet terminal called Wilson Air Center. Adolescents who appear to be in their early teens are seen deboarding the planes carrying matching bags then boarding large tour busses parked on the runway.
…
Approximately 30 to 50 UAC are transported on each bus, according to a source with direct knowledge of the operation. Some get reunited with family members and others go to taxpayer-funded group homes. The source says in the news story that the operation began in Dallas but was recently moved to small airports to “avoid attention.” Wilson Air Center fits the bill. It is a Fixed-Base Operator (FBO), a private jet facility, with an executive terminal, 120,000 square feet of hangar space, and a multitude of other amenities…
Unfortunately, the American public cannot obtain details about the arrangement. The Tennessee media outlet was given the runaround and various members of Congress are quoted saying they have no information about the operations. A DOD spokesman, Lieutenant Colonel Chris Mitchell, says in the story that the flights were facilitated by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)….
HHS is responsible for UAC and currently has a record 22,264 in its care, according to the latest government figures. The agency provides the illegal immigrant minors with an array of services, including classroom education, mental and medical healthcare, legal counsel, and a variety of recreational activities. The overwhelming majority of the migrants—72%—are not children but rather young adults or adolescents 15 to 17 years old, government records show. Most of the youths are from Guatemala and Honduras and 68% are male, which has tremendously boosted gang recruitment in this country. Federal authorities have for years confirmed that the nation’s most violent street gangs—including the Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13)—recruit new members at U.S. shelters housing UAC.

This is a blatant violation of state rights in exercising their authority over matters of Public Health and Safety. The Federal Government, coordinating with Non Governmental Organizations (ie, Catholic Charities) are engaging in illicit measures to circumvent State powers:
20 Governors Send Letter To Biden Rejecting Plan To House Illegals In Their States: ‘Unacceptable and Unsustainable’
…the Department [HHS] circumvented our states altogether by asking private organizations and nonprofits to house unaccompanied migrant children. Often these facilities lack adequate security.
…cartels that are also trafficking men, women, and children and jeopardizing their lives. At a time when our country is trying to recover from a once-in-a-generation pandemic, the last thing we need is a self-created crisis that exploits families, undermines public safety, and threatens our national security.
