“This particular ad ran in FedBizOpps in January with RFI for “Escorts” for 65,000 unaccompanied alien children. “This is the relevant description: “Procurement Type: Request for Information (RFI)/Sources Sought “Title: Escort Services for Unaccompanied Alien Children “Classification Code: V- Transportation/Travel/Relocation “NAICS code: 561612 “Primary POC: Rachel Ali, Contract Specialist/ Rachel.Ali@ice.dhs.gov “Secondary POC: Tony Ross, Contracting Officer/ Tony.Ross@ice.dhs.gov “A. Introduction “U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), a component of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), has a continuing and mission critical responsibility for accepting custody of Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) from U.S. Border Patrol and other Federal agencies and transporting these juveniles to Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) shelters located throughout the continental United States. ICE is seeking the services of a responsible vendor that shares the philosophy of treating all UAC with dignity and respect, while adhering to standard operating procedures and policies that allow for an effective, efficient, and incident free transport. The Contractor shall provide unarmed escort staff, including management, supervision, manpower, training, certifications, licenses, drug testing, equipment, and supplies necessary to provide on-demand escort services for non-criminal/non-delinquent unaccompanied alien children ages infant to 17 years of age, seven (7) days a week, 365 days a year. Transport will be required for either category of UAC or individual juveniles, to include both male and female juveniles. There will be approximately 65,000 UAC in total: 25% local ground transport, 25% via ICE charter and 50% via commercial air. Escort services include, but are not limited to, assisting with: transferring physical custody of UAC from DHS to Health and Human Services (HHS) care via ground or air methods of transportation (charter or commercial carrier), property inventory, providing juveniles with meals, drafting reports, generating transport documents, maintaining/stocking daily supplies, providing and issuing clothing as needed, coordinating with DHS and HHS staff, travel coordination, limited stationary guard services to accommodate for trip disruptions due to inclement weather, faulty equipment, or other exigent circumstances. In emergency situations, the Contractor shall be called on to provide temporary shelter locations (such as trailers) with shower facilities for juveniles who are pending placement with HHS when bed space is unavailable nationwide for extended periods of time. The Contractor shall provide temporary guard services and other support as necessary during these emergencies. “You can view more of the document here. “This advertisement raises a lot of questions. There is a lot of specificity reflected in this document that seeks to deal with an influx that hadn’t as yet happened. How could they know 65,000, even breaking down the percentages that would be covered by ground, charter and air transportation?”The answer is they knew because they painstakingly planned it. While the media portray the illegal aliens as little kids, toting teddybears and clinging to their Mamas’ hands, they are mostly teenaged boys, in the 14-7 median age group. With the latest photo of Obama flashing a JP Morgan credit card to pay for a $300 takeout barbecue for the clapping seals on Air Force One, we should never forget his July 14, 2008 vow: "We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded." The US military is now all but gutted. Illegal aliens are better treated than veterans and Obama’s foreign military are now here waiting for orders to begin unleashing anarchy.
