Under the Biden-Harris administration, the alarming issues of child safety and trafficking have come to the forefront. Since January 2021, over 550,000 children have entered the U.S. illegally without parents or guardians, according to a report from the Department of Homeland Security. Disturbingly, more than 300,000 of these children have disappeared under the administration’s oversight. Tragically, some have been found dead, while others have been victims of forced labor or sexual exploitation. This situation signifies not just poor leadership but potentially one of the gravest scandals in recent American history.
Concerns have been raised about how the Biden-Harris administration reviews sponsorships for unaccompanied minors. Tara Lee Rodus, a former senior official at the Department of Health and Human Services, has flagged that despite warnings from the previous administration, little has been done to implement necessary protective measures. This negligence has left children vulnerable to human trafficking.
The ongoing inaction has allowed the multi-billion-dollar child trafficking industry to thrive. John Fabricatore, who worked on finding missing children during the Trump administration, described the horrors he witnessed, including instances where children were exploited in trafficking situations. The perils they face are immense, ranging from labor exploitation to illegal adoptions. Unfortunately, those entrusted with their safety, like former HHS Director Xavier Becerra and Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, have not been held accountable.
A critical question arises: who is profiting from these tragedies? Drug cartels, businesses, and possibly even entities within the federal government seem to benefit from illegal adoptions and other exploitative practices. It’s vital for the Department of Justice and the Treasury to track this flow of money and bring responsible parties to justice.
This lays bare the stark reality of the Biden-Harris administration’s policies, which, under an open border agenda, have resulted in countless children being abandoned and exploited. Many parents, believing their children would be safe, have sent them north with smugglers, only for those children to face terrifying situations. There are too many heartbreaking stories, like those of infants abandoned in the desert or kids treated as mere packages to deliver.
The Trump administration’s approach signifies a stark contrast. Trump’s policies aimed to diminish the power of criminal networks harming children, restore order, and mitigate human suffering. The “stay in Mexico” initiative reduced the incentive for parents to send their children on perilous journeys. With leaders like Trump and Tom Homan steering the U.S., efforts to protect families and secure the border have become a priority. The outcome is clear: when the border is secure, children are safe.
The Biden-Harris era will be remembered for its betrayal of children’s safety, as it allowed cartels to flourish while neglecting to safeguard human dignity. Americans must be outraged by what has happened; no child should suffer in a broken system or be lost amidst the chaos surrounding borders. This isn’t just about border security; it’s fundamentally about human dignity and safeguarding lives.
With eyes worldwide upon us, it’s crucial to remember that our children are not for sale, no matter the circumstances.
