Xavier Becerra faces a renewed scandal over his tenure as Joe Biden’s health secretary after a whistleblower came forward to expose the horrific levels of abuse and exploitation of hundreds of thousands of migrant children faced while in detention in California.
A caseworker at the Pomona Fairplex alleges children faced abuse and chaotic releases, were separated from young siblings, and sent to unverified addresses or secretly moved in the dead of the night — some never to be seen again — while the complex also accepted fake documents from sponsors.
During his time as Biden’s health secretary from 2021 to 2025, the U.S. faced an overwhelming border crisis, with just under 480,000 unaccompanied minors crossing the border. The HHS was the federal agency legally mandated to care for and protect unaccompanied migrant children.
Multiple emergency intake sites were set up across the country to process the children, including in Texas, Florida and California, where there were three: San Diego, Long Beach and Pomona.
The whistleblower, who brought the allegations to rival gubernatorial Republican candidate Steve Hilton, is a first-generation American and mother of two who’s family moved from El Salvador and was raised in Southern California.
Her shocking claims come as Hilton zeros in on Becerra’s controversial and much-criticized term as health secretary ahead of the general election for governor of California on November 3. The latest poll for the race, by the Public Policy Institute of California, found the Democrat ahead of Hilton 61% to 36%.
Becerra toured the Fairplex complex in July 2021, and called it a “a model” for other sites across America and a place where kids could be ‘’healthy and safe.’’

Hilton is sadly so far behind there is a dark cloud of defeat looming over him in the coming election.
A 23% Real Clear Politics average polling lead recently for his opponent.
There must be so many evil people in California that good people abandon all hope when entering.
Won’t move the needle 1 iota.
Becerra is a Califraud. A faker dreaming of California becoming a Mexican colony supported by U.S. taxpayer dollars.
Sadly.
When you see Christians and Jews bailing out, it os time to get out of Dodge.
Owwwwwww. Another tick up in the democommie polls then.
California has become like Dante’s Inferno, as you hinted in your comment.
You cant “rock” a democrat political candidate in California. The powers that be select them for office regardless of the “votes”. Look at what happened to Spencer Pratt.
Former HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra faces renewed scrutiny over the handling of unaccompanied migrant children during his tenure.
A federal caseworker and whistleblower has raised grave concerns over missing, abused, or exploited minors, with reports indicating that hundreds of thousands of children were placed with unvetted adults and tens of thousands were subsequently lost track of after release.
These allegations have roiled the political landscape, particularly as Becerra campaigns in the California gubernatorial primary.
Critics and whistleblowers allege that the push to rapidly clear emergency intake shelters, including temporary sites like the Pomona Fairplex, resulted in the reduction of vital safety and vetting protocols.
This has led to widespread bipartisan criticism over children subsequently facing grueling labor, forced work, and trafficking.
Whistleblowers have countered claims by Becerra that only 85,000 children went missing or were unaccounted for, citing figures running into the hundreds of thousands.
Becerra has defended his agency’s record, frequently stating that his department’s legal jurisdiction and responsibilities ended once a child was placed with an approved sponsor, and has characterized some of the more extreme trafficking accusations from opponents as politically motivated “Trump lies”.
They needed to step in and cheat for Pratt. They don’t need to do that for Becerra. The only question is whether he’ll crack the 60% threshold. In CA you’d need a political earthquake of unprecedented magnitude to elect an R governor
If Xavier had the children BBQ’d at DNC fundraising dinners he would still get elected.
It is a feature, not a bug.

This guy is so dirty it’s ridiculous.
