WHISTLEBLOWER: US Government is ‘Middleman’ in Child Trafficking Scheme

Wow!

If you ask folks on the left why they are so opposed to building a serious wall on the southern border with Mexico, you are likely to hear the same rehashed and redundant claim that such a barrier would somehow be “racist”.  This was precisely the angle that they took in order to attack Donald Trump during the 2016 election, and they haven’t yet come to grips with how detrimental it is to remain attached to this falsehood.

In reality, a leaky border isn’t just allowing undocumented migrants who may or may not find themselves in the naturalization process one day, but also all manner of other people – many of whom have no attachment to the idea of law and order.  This includes traffickers of drugs, guns, and even people.

In the coming days, one House committee will be revealing bombshell revelations about the border situation…and the federal government’s role in it all.

A House Judiciary subcommittee hearing on Wednesday will feature the testimony from a whistleblower who will warn lawmakers that the U.S. has become the “middleman” in a multibillion dollar migrant child trafficking operation at the border.

The hearing, “The Biden Border Crisis: Exploitation of Unaccompanied Alien Children,” will be held by the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement and will examine the surge in unaccompanied children (UACs) at the southern border.

According to Customs and Border Protection (CBP) statistics, the number of UACs who arrive at the border has swelled from 33,239 in fiscal year 2020 to more than 146,000 in fiscal year 2021 and 152,000 in fiscal year 2022. So far in fiscal year 2023, there have been more than 70,000 encounters of unaccompanied children.

Here is where things go awry:

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

When child migrants are encountered at the border, they are transferred into the custody of Health and Human Services (HHS) and then united with a sponsor – typically a parent or family member already in the U.S.

But the Biden administration has been rocked by a number of reports that officials have been unable to make contact with more than 85,000 child migrants; and more recently, administration officials reportedly ignored signs of “explosive” growth in child labor. A number have been forced into indentured servitude to pay back smugglers and have worked in dire conditions.

Some of the outcomes involved here are unforgivable.

The Wednesday hearing will hear from three witnesses: Tara Lee Rodas, a HHS whistleblower formerly with an inspector general’s office; Sheena Rodriguez, founder and president of Alliance for a Safe Texas; and Jessica Vaughn, director of Policy Studies at the Center for Immigration Studies.

Rodas will warn of a problem that predates the administration but has increased significantly during the recent migrant crisis, according to a copy of her written testimony obtained by Fox News Digital.

“Today, children will work overnight shifts at slaughterhouses, factories, restaurants to pay their debts to smugglers and traffickers. Today, children will be sold for sex,” she will say. “Today, children will call a hotline to report they are being abused, neglected, and trafficked. For nearly a decade, unaccompanied children have been suffering in the shadows.”

And, also:

“I thought I was going to help place children in loving homes. Instead, I discovered that children are being trafficked through a sophisticated network that begins with being recruited in their home country, smuggled to the U.S. border, and ends when ORR delivers a child to a sponsor – some sponsors are criminals and traffickers and members of Transnational Criminal Organizations. Some sponsors view children as commodities and assets to be used for earning income – this is why we are witnessing an explosion of labor trafficking,” Rodas’ written remarks show.

“Whether intentional or not, it can be argued that the U.S. Government has become the middleman in a large scale, multi-billion-dollar, child trafficking operation run by bad actors seeking to profit off the lives of children.”

President Joe Biden’s inability to rectify the situation at the southern border has been one of the more severe criticisms of his first term thus far, and it will surely be a rather large topic of discussion now that Sleepy Joe has finally announced his 2024 reelection bid.
