Migrants, mostly Haitians, were observed boarding planes to Florida, New York and Maryland at a Texas airport. Migrants were also observed deplaning and entering busses under the observation of law enforcement officers at their destinations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy is the administration flying thousands of migrants from the border to Florida and New York in the middle of the night?\u201d Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/08\/10\/biden-flight-migrant-ice\/\">(RELATED: Biden Admin Is Reportedly Flying Migrants To A West Texas Town Before Releasing Them)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell I\u2019m not sure it\u2019s in the middle of the night, but let me tell you what\u2019s happening here,\u201d Psaki responded.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c2:13 a.m., 4:29 a.m.,\u201d Doocy listed. \u201cVery early in the morning\u2013pre-dawn.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEarly flights. Earlier than you might like to take a flight,\u201d Psaki said. \u201cIt is our legal responsibility to safely care for unaccompanied children until they can be swiftly unified with a parent or a vetted sponsor. That\u2019s something we take seriously. We have a moral obligation to do that and deliver on that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a part of the reunification process our Office of Refugee Resettlement facilitates travel for children in its custody to their families or sponsors across the country. In recent weeks unaccompanied children passed through the Westchester airport en-route to their final destination to be unified with their parents or vetted sponsor. It\u2019s no surprise children can be seen traveling through states, not just New York.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>WATCH:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"White House press secretary Jen Psaki holds a briefing | 10\/19\/21\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AjCmAr0qn6Q?start=1512&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<p>Psaki\u2019s explanation conflicts with some reports of the flights, however, which appear to show adult migrants waiting to board planes, not just children waiting to be unified with parents or sponsors.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" readability=\"14.67701863354\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">While I was boarding my flight out of Texas, I talked with migrants, all from Haiti getting ready to head to: Florida (Orlando), New York, and Maryland.<\/p>\n<p>Baby Mateo was born 5 days ago in Del Rio.<\/p>\n<p>I asked permission to take these photos \ud83d\udc4d\ud83c\udffc <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/GvGe1nbAR9\">pic.twitter.com\/GvGe1nbAR9<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ali Bradley (@AliBradleyTV) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AliBradleyTV\/status\/1440445594896531456?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 21, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) used Psaki\u2019s same explanation earlier Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur Office of Refugee Resettlement facilitates travel for the children in its custody to their family or sponsors across the country,\u201d Department of Health and Human Services spokesperson Jorge Silva <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2021\/10\/18\/biden-secretly-flying-underage-migrants-into-ny-in-dead-of-night\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">told the New York Post<\/a>. \u201cIn recent weeks, unaccompanied children passed through the Westchester airport en route to their final destination to be unified with their parents or vetted sponsor.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>White House press secretary Jen Psaki argued it should be \u201cno surprise\u201d to Americans that President Joe Biden\u2019s administration is conducting overnight flights to bring migrants to Florida and New &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-898727","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/898727","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=898727"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/898727\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=898727"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=898727"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=898727"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
