Is $450,000 enough for each illegal immigrant separated from family?

Occasionally they are spotted at a destination, here's a sighting from the NY Post. As to bracelets, it is much more efficient for drug and sex trafficking for the cartels to keep track. The women have to work off debt else there families will be killed, as to the kids, some are too young to talk or remember their destinations so they can't tell the Biden people where they want to go-thus bracelets.
Biden secretly flying underage migrants into NY in dead of night

Failure to address my post on topic noted.

As to the "secret flying"...

It was discussed in the news back in March.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/nati...85433c-88da-11eb-8a67-f314e5fcf88d_story.html

A new spike in the number of families and children crossing the Rio Grande into South Texas over the past several hours is forcing U.S. Customs and Border Protection to request airplanes that will allow the Biden administration to transport migrants to states near the Canadian border for processing, according to two Department of Homeland Security officials and an email reviewed by The Washington Post.


Border officials requested the air support from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement because 1,000 members of families and unaccompanied minors crossed the Rio Grande on Friday morning, and border agents have another 1,000 migrants they have been unable to process since last night, the communications show.

Did you catch that? "unaccompanied minors". Your OP was about a financial negotiations - why so much money? It is because the Trump administration took the kids from their parents at the border and sent them away and then deported the parents without enough information to reconnect the family.
It was evil.

So the Biden administration did move unaccompanied minors to locations where they can be processed easier... Wow.

The Trump administration followed the immigration laws and separated adults from children, the Biden administration is totally disregarding the laws and in fact is helping the cartel. It is a very bad idea to force a child to stay with an adult who may be a parent or may just be using the child as a ticket to get into this nation. DNA tests often proved there was no relationship between the child and the person claiming to be the parent.

I don't think I've ever seen so many pictures and read so much detail about something that is meant to be so secret. Exciting though...

It is also quite common for a settlement to become a legal precedent, think of how many cases could be found by attorneys who want to line their pockets.

As I don't know the details of the case being brought I have no idea on what grounds it could become a precedent. If you have further info that will shed light on that possibility then we all need to know about it so we can make an informed comment.

No, the Trump administration did not follow law and was ordered by the courts to put the families back together again. But they did not keep good records so for some it took a few years and some have not been reconnected at all.

And no, Biden is not helping the cartels, which is a flat out lie, and there has been nothing about DNA tests showing lack of relationship. They didn't even start collecting dna until AFTER the courts ordered them to put the kids back with the parents. They can't even contact many of the parents. It was an evil thing to separate them. One child was even taken from it's mother while it was nursing.

Biden is helping the cartels--I'm not the one who is lying. Show us that Joe has had every child he has sent out DNA tested to the supposed parent or cousin!!! They have been trying to hide the entire process from the public. Biden needs to be held accountable for the crimes he has emboldened and created. The focus needs to go away from finding domestic terrorists at school board meetings to addressing the sex trafficking, drugs, and terrorism being imported at our southern border.

It's important to keep in mind this is a long distance, three years and change at least, haul here. Maintain a steady pace, avoid outrage burnout.

No, Biden is not helping the cartels. That is a flat out flame and a lie.

I need to clarify and correct one of my posts about DNA testing at the border. In
2019, well after many children (including infants) had been taken by border agents and separated from the parents, the Trump administration start using rapid DNA tests on those that agreed to do it. About 16% of the ones tested showed there was no family relationship but that does not mean they are evil child smugglers. What about a woman bringing her children and a step child or two to the border?
There would not be a family relationship there, but that woman is the mother to those stepchildren. And what smuggler would agree to a voluntary DNA test? The Biden administration stopped doing it in March of this year (or April). I have no doubt though, that they are checking DNA with a better test before turning reconnecting children to their parents after a few years apart.

But all this represents a deflection from the topic that the separated parents and children will be financially compensated for the pain inflicted on them by the US border agents. The younger children were getting use to another woman being their mother, and then suddenly they are with people who speak Spanish and is the mother they have forgotten.

As Migrant Families Are Reunited, Some Children Don’t Recognize Their Mothers (Published 2018)

One mother had waited four months to wrap her arms around her little boy. Another had waited three months to see her little girl again.

When the reunions finally happened Tuesday in Phoenix, the mothers were met with cries of rejection from their children.

“He didn’t recognize me,” said Mirce Alba Lopez, 31, of her 3-year-old son, Ederson, her eyes welling up with tears. “My joy turned temporarily to sadness.”

For Milka Pablo, 35, it was no different. Her 3-year-old daughter, Darly, screamed and tried to wiggle free from her mother’s embrace.....

As Ms. Lopez and Ms. Pablo waited at a Greyhound station to board eastbound buses, their children called each other sister and brother. They were yet to utter the word “mami,” Spanish for mother, to the women cuddling, stroking and feeding them. But they were calmer, the mothers said.

Darly, who had been potty-trained before the separation, had regressed to diapers. Ederson bounced up and down on his mother’s lap and downed Doritos with gusto. All of the adults were fitted with ankle monitors.

“I want to go with my little sister,” he said, pointing to a 13-month-old named Carmen in the arms of Denis Espinoza, her Honduran father who was released from detention to recover her 20 days after they were separated.
The policy of separating the families caused a great deal of harm to those families and especially the young children.

Reuniting and Detaining Migrant Families Pose New Mental Health Risks (Published 2018)

The chaotic process of reuniting thousands of migrant children and parents separated by the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” policy poses great psychological risks, both short- and long-term, mental health experts said on Friday. So does holding those families indefinitely while they await legal proceedings, which could happen under the president’s new executive order.

The administration has no clear plan to reunite migrant families, which is sure to carry a psychological price for migrant parents and more than 2,300 children separated from them at the border in recent months. More than 400 are under age 12, and many are toddlers.
Harming the children like that is amoral.

More and more children are being sex trafficked--Biden refuses to enforce the laws of our country and the rapes and sex trafficking and drugs are out of control! The very idea that people from other countries who both endanger their children by bring them into cartel controlled areas, with the intention to violate the laws of our country, should be PAID one dime because the adults are arrested is CRAZY. Why should illegals be made millionaires while immigrants who respect our laws and who apply legally to enter our country are cast aside? If anyone cares about children they should join those who demand that the border be secure. NOW! How many women need to be raped and how many children sexually abused before all of you who live such comfortable and secure lives join in demanding that Biden stop?

That is just ranting at this point. Try calming down and supporting your claims.

People bringing their children to the US and entering at the border are not bringing them to a cartel controlled area. The US border patrol is not the cartel.
The US border agents are not raping the women or sexually abusing the children.
The money that the government is talking about is for actions INSIDE the US, and actions taken by US citizens and employees.

It was the Trump administration that took little children from their parents and caused a great deal of harm. It is their actions that are the problem and is tied to why the money is offered,

As to the immigrants themselves, many are escaping from gangs - and many are coming because there has been a drought in Central America and there is little food. What there is has gone up in price and the farmers are broke. It seems the Trump administration did not care about people starving and wanting to keep their children safe from gangs and their activities.

Money is being offered?
It's my understanding that the government is being sued by some of the families that were separated. The court will decide what the families are entitled to if anything or the government will settle out of court. One of the reasons to settle out of court is to save money.

That is what I meant about the money. It is because of a lawsuit that the US is looking at that sum of money.

You can bet the impetus for the lawsuits is from the hard left, and it would not surprise me if the Biden administration is involved. Marxism eliminates the working middle class through the distribution of wealth. Eventually the money runs out and it leaves a small group of wealthy government elite while everyone else is poor. The population becomes enslaved. Compare those separated from families, Trump refused to let children be imprisoned with adults, and hundreds had to be separated for months. He was able to protect the 16% whose parents were not related. Joe's policies have resulted in over 125,000 unaccompanied children processed at the border--that's a record. 125,000 children separated from parents, left to cartels, because of Joe's policies. Do you think they did DNA tests and properly tracked down relatives for that last group of Haitians under the bridge who disappeared in one night? Why hide their fate, why stop Texas child protection from inspecting the Biden cages?

When planting camellias it's best to loosen the soil in the planting area at least a spades depth and mix in compost with the existing soil. As they do best in slightly acidic soil it's advisable to apply amendments that will push the soil PH in that direction and top dress with a thick mulch of pine bark to retain moisture.

It's harder to maintain secrecy in today's world, they banned access by child welfare workers and the media to the cages for kids but the cages could be seen from a distance. When Haitians were massed under that bridge they banned drones for "national security" but their reason was just too ridiculous so the drones took photos. They moved out the illegals, banning access to the move and would not say where they were going. When people noticed illegals on planes they next made the flights private, refusing to reveal destinations. But in New York the private flights in the middle of the night were spotted. The Biden administration conceals what they can, but with today's communications I am sure it is exasperating. I've been a decades long activist for transparency and accountability, that's what is so lacking in our government.
