Biden's border policies are helping cartels operate child sex trafficking rings in US, ex-DHS agent warns - New bill calls on Biden administration to find the estimated 85,000 unaccompanied minors who vanished after crossing the southern border

Tim Ballard, the former Homeland Security agent whose experience rescuing child sex trafficking victims inspired the film "Sound of Freedom," accused the U.S. government of helping to facilitate cartel-led child trafficking rings in the United States by releasing young migrants who crossed the southern border into their care.

"It is shameful that I have to say this, but I spent 12 years working for the U.S. government to rescue children. Now, thanks to these policies, I have to rescue children from the U.S. Government," Ballard said Tuesday on "The Story."

"This is dangerous," he warned. "This is a crisis."

Moments earlier, Ballard joined Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., at a press conference outside the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., demanding the Biden administration find an estimated 85,000 unaccompanied minors, who entered the U.S. via the southern border and remain unaccounted for.

Smith announced new legislation dubbed the "Safeguarding Endangered Children, Unaccompanied and at Risk of Exploitation Act of 2023" or as the "SECURE Act of 2023," which aims to compel the federal government to report on efforts to locate, establish contact with, conduct wellness checks on, and investigate any suspicion of human trafficking related to the approximately 85,000 unaccompanied migrant children released from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) custody "with whom subsequent contact has been lost."

Ballard told FOX News host Martha MacCallum that border patrol agents are on his "side in this," and are being ordered to "to do things that are absolutely insanity" due to the Biden administration's border policies.

"These children who show up are released to whoever picks them up. Almost zero vetting is done," he said. "A U.S. child would receive much more than that, a U.S. child would be protected if...

The Left hated “Sound of Freedom” because those type of crimes shine in the film lead right back to Joe Biden and his people.

I’ve heard a nasty rumor about that substance. It may be a wild conspiracy theory or not. I sure hope what I heard was false.

It's intentional. You don't lose that many children without making an effort to lose them. Last year or so, border patrol was complaining about hundreds of kids going to the same address... an 'aunt'. They all knew it was fake.

Biden calls is "sweet" because it's the "Catholic Charities" behind the placement of unaccompanied minors.

Remember the definition of "chain" migration? Siblings parents, grandparents all get allowed into the express lane to emigrate to the USA.

They are not all put into the child sex thing.

The FBI still can’t find 80.000 of them.

No bookie would take your odds.

Those who facilitate these abominations will NOT fare well in the day of judgment if they do not repent.

Sin angers Him on general principle but this sin is especially hateful to Him and is expressly singled out for an exceptionally severe judgment.

Prov. 6; Matt. 18:6 and Luke 17:2

The reason why He has not done anything yet (according to our perception) is that He is not willing that anybody perish but that all should come to repentance (II Pet. 3:9) but when He decides “enough is enough!” His judgment will fall on these impenitent sinners like a ton of bricks.
