60 missing, trafficked kids recovered in 'largest child rescue operation in US history': Florida officials
The Post Millennial ^ | 6/23/25 | Thomas Stevenson

The US Marshals and Florida officials were able to find 60 missing children during "Operation Dragonfly," which the US Marshals Service called the "largest" child rescue operation in the history of the United States.

“We are here to announce the most successful completion of the largest child rescue operation, not just in Florida history, but in the United States history,” Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier announced during a press conference, per First Coast News.

"Protecting our kids and keeping Florida the safest state to raise a family is our number one priority," Uthmeier added. "Today is a result of the hard work to deliver on that promise."

The operation focused on finding those children who were missing, victims of human trafficking, or endangered in the Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco counties of Florida.

Also addressing the reporters at the press conference was US Marshal William Berger, who added that "60 juveniles were covered in two weeks, ranging from age nine to 17 years of age," and that it was the largest child rescue operation in the history of the US.

How about sending the folks running that to Gitmo and promise them we will come back in 50 years to put them on trial.

Thank the Lord! Now, where and who were these kids being sold to? Those people must be delivered to the depths of hell.

Question: In four years, did the Biden administration ever recover ANY of the hundreds of thousands of children they lost track of?

Any at all? Even one?

The Biden administration didn’t recover any of them, they trafficked in them.

Hey now, they helped traffick those kids fair and square in exchange for mostly-peaceful services from the traffickers, so expect a nationwide injunction from a Hawaii-based Biden or Obama appointee returning to the kids to their 'rightful, non-vetted (because that's racist!) non-parental guardians' soon enough.

I have little doubt that they were being bribed to cooperate with the cartels. I got this idea from a supervisor who was a legal Mexican national in a position to know.

Has a district judge ordered them returned to their traffickers yet?

I wonder how many of the 300,000 missing they have accounted for or rescued?

You ask AI and it says they’re not missing and their sponsors are vetted, but it admits they don’t know where they are. Duh, that’s missing.

*Dig hole
*Throw in the predators
*Throw dirt on top
*Erase their very existence from all public records, social media and yearbooks.
*Never mention their name again.
*If the parents were involved in the crime, same way for them.

Like they never even existed.

Pour love and healing into these broken children.
