More than 1,600 undocumented children have been stealthily relocated from private foster homes and shelters to a tent camp in West Texas as part of the Trump administration's mass reshuffling initiative. As the New York Times reported on Sunday, hundreds of migrant children are being transferred under the cover of darkness from shelters all across the country to the desolate campsite in the desert city of Tornillo. All the tents, which vary in sizes and serve different functions, are air-conditioned and the camp is equipped with portable toilets for the children to use. There is no school on site, so the children are instead handed workbooks, which they are not required to complete. The US Border Patrol said it apprehended nearly 4,000 children unaccompanied by an adult at the southwest border in July.
