Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) explained how migrant children are being “rented” to help other migrants claim asylum when attempting to cross into the U.S. over the southern border.
During an interview with Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” host Maria Bartiromo pressed Graham on the claim that migrants have been “renting” their children so that others can claim asylum in the U.S. and his claim that 30% of families apprehended while attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border are not really related.
Graham responded by saying that officials at the border have started a “pilot program” where they are testing the DNA of migrant family units at the border and that he was told of “about 60 children” who were being “recycled” at the border to allow more people to claim asylum.
“They told us about 60 children that were recycled,” said Graham. “They pick the child up in Central America, they bring them to the United States, everybody’s released, and the child goes back to Central America to do it again.”

The Senate Judiciary chairman continued on to call the system that has “exploited” children “sick” and “rotten to its core.” He also brought up that “100,000 unaccompanied minors” had been apprehended at the southern border “this year alone.”
“This is a sick system. It is rotten to its core. These children have been exploited. We’ve picked up 100,000 unaccompanied minors this year alone. They’re taking this journey, God knows what happens to them on the way, and when they get here 98 percent of them stay and the parents send a note [saying,] “if you want your child to come to America, hire a coyote.”

There should be on the spot genetic testing of anyone in the company of a minor. If the DNA doesn’t match Felony kidnapping charges should be laid.

From the guy who worked with McCain tooth and nail to keep the borders open.
Never believe a word he says.
And yet they are OK with separation in the womb.
Thanks Its All Over Except ...
Democrats of course have no problem with the exploitation children.
Even if it does match, doesn't mean the child wasn't kidnapped.
Would definitely be a good start though, DNA testing on the spot. A match would still require additional research (since many of these people are "undocumented").
Personally, as a retired LEO who worked in what TV calls “SVU”, I believe that children who are brought to the USA by NON-family members should be turned over to Child Protective Services to determine if they have been kidnapped, “trafficked”, molested and/or IF they should be returned to parents/lawful guardians.
(I’ve seen FAR too many children who were molested/trafficked/abused/murdered by PREDATORS to believe that any “non-familial” person should EVER get the child back W/O documented PROOF that the child is in their LAWFUL custody.)
Just my OPINION, TMN78247
Fantastic post. Thanks.
Thank you!
Agreed. Genetic relationship does not prove they are not kidnapped.
