The Biden administration on Tuesday released images showing how it has emptied out the once-packed Border Patrol facility in Donna, Texas -- which a few months ago had seen images emerge of migrants packed into "pods" amid the surging crisis at the border.
The administration came under fire for its handling of the crisis, and that criticism was exacerbated by the images that emerged from Donna. At that time, more than 5,000 were in Border Patrol facilities -- and th number has now dropped into the hundreds.

Those numbers have in turn shifted toward the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) -- which the administration says is better able to handle children. The administration has been quickly opening new HHS facilities -- including at military bases -- to handle the continuing surge in unaccompanied children.
