After an estimated 233,000 children who crossed the US-Mexico border alone during President Joe Biden's tenure were lost, law enforcement has started to locate them - only to learn of the horrors they have faced. Since March, the Trump administration has tracked down 22,638 kids, finding some in 'deplorable' conditions, dead and others being used as sex slaves, officials told Fox News.

The Biden administration placed thousands of illegal alien children in the care of unvetted sponsors, according to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley. The Iowa Republican has released Department of Health and Human Services data showing that during President Joe Biden’s administration, over 11,000 unaccompanied alien children were placed with unvetted sponsors who were not the children’s parents or legal guardians. Additionally, no home visits were conducted for over 79,000 illegal immigrant children. Moreover, some children were “allowed to be placed with sponsors who were actually smugglers and sex traffickers,” according to the Department of Homeland Security. “My oversight continues...

California Pastor Jack Hibbs called on his congregation at Calvary Chapel Chino Hills to voice opposition to an “unthinkable” new bill that would have disastrous repercussions for children in the state. “For years, we have been telling you about bad bills that they have been doing—this takes the cake,” Hibbs underscored during the Wednesday night study at his church. Those who introduced the bill have branded AB 495 as a response to family separations faced by illegal immigrants detained and deported by ICE agents. AB 495, titled the “Family Preparedness Plan Act of 2025″ by its authors, streamlines the process...

Cherokee Federal - $700 million for services through a no-bid contract for unaccompanied minor children through the DHHS - ORR. Despite raising case after case of trafficking, HHSORR leadership and the contractor allowed children to be trafficked on their watch and the taxpayers continue to fund it. Repeatedly, the program prioritized speed over safety,” White said. “HHSORR and Cherokee Federal, the prime contractor, created a ‘strike team’ to remove children faster, ignoring warnings that came from case managers that children were being trafficked. The entire executive leadership at Health and Human Services knew about it as well as the Office...

Operation Dragon Eye rescued 60 missing kids in just two weeks—proving what happens when law enforcement puts mis sion over politics and predators in handcuffs. Law enforcement is alive and well, everyone. As people continue to criticize the police and insist they’re the problem, a recent operation has proven just how effective they can be—especially when it comes to the safety of children and the arrest of criminals who would stoop low enough to exploit them. I’m talking about Operation Dragon Eye, which was recently carried out across Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco counties in Florida. The two-week multi-agency operation resulted...

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...

The truth must come out. People need to be prosecuted and sent away for a very long time.

The Polaris Project, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that administers the National Human Trafficking Hotline, regularly fails to refer tips to law enforcement for investigation, whistleblowers told the Senate Judiciary Committee, confirming an earlier complaint from a bipartisan group of state attorneys general. The Polaris Project in 2023 received $4,831,020 in government grants, according to the charity's IRS filings. In a letter to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy, whose agency oversees Polaris' use of ACF funding, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley presented the evidence turned over to Congress by an anonymous employee of Polaris and detailed the allegations.

Two left-wing non-governmental organizations (NGOs), both with financial ties to Alex and George Soros’s network, are suing to stop President Donald Trump’s reforms of the Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) program, which are intended to end trafficking of such migrant children within the United States. In February, Trump’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued reforms to the UAC program, which resettles migrant children in American communities with adult sponsors after they arrive at the U.S.-Mexico border without parents or guardians. Part of those reforms is banning UACs from being turned over to illegal aliens in the United States. HHS...

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s administration is conducting a nationwide, multi-agency review of 450,000 migrant children who crossed the U.S.-Mexico border without their parents during President Joe Biden’s term. Trump officials say they want to track down those children and ensure their safety. Many of the children came to the U.S. during surges at the border in recent years and were later placed in homes with adult sponsors, typically parents, relatives or family friends.Migrant advocates are dubious of the Republican administration’s tactics, which include dispatching Homeland Security and FBI agents to visit the children. Trump’s zero-tolerance approach to immigrants...

HOLY SHIT! RFK Jr. just said point blank that (1) the Dept. of HHS under the Biden Regime collaborated in child trafficking, both for sex and for slavery, and (2) there are 300,000 missing children that they are desperately trying to find. ARFK Jr. says HHS was a “collaborator in child trafficking”, and that he has ended this and now they are aggressively trying to find these “300,000 children that were lost by the Biden administration”. You thought Russiagate and Covid were bad? absolutely stunning and truly crimes against humanity!

@Patri0tContr0l WTF did RFK Jr just say? “During the Biden Administration, HHS became a collaborator in child trafficking and for sex and for slavery. And we have ended that, and we are very aggressively going out and trying to find these children. 300,000 children that were lost by the Biden Administration.” It’s worse than anyone can imagine.

D.C. Cardinal Slams Trump’s Migration Reforms as ‘Crusade’“The pathway of crusade and mass deportation cannot be followed in conscience by those who call themselves disciples of Jesus Christ, and we must work to make sure that that does not happen,” Cardinal Robert McElroy said in a speech to the Jesuit Refugee Service organization in D.C.McElroy called for welcoming policies similar to those established by President Joe Biden’s border czar, Alejandro Mayorkas, saying:The first pathway — which Catholic social teaching would support — is to change our laws so that they have secure borders and dignity for the treatment of everyone...

Kamala Harris's campaign paid more than double what was previously thought to Oprah Winfrey as Democrats continue to fundraise past the election after going into debt to run a presidential bid. Reports emerged that Harris's campaign paid Winfrey's Harpo Productions $1 million as part of a very pricey and short run for the White House. But now, the New York Times reports that two people familiar with the matter reveal the full price of the event with Winfrey cost closer to $2.5 million.

Zachary Apotheker, the Border Patrol whistleblower who appeared in James O’Keefe’s film titled, “Line In The Sand” is facing retaliation for exposing the Biden Regime’s child trafficking scheme. Zachary Apotheker appeared in O’Keefe’s film because he just couldn’t sit back silently as children are trafficked, raped and abused. Now he is being retaliated against. “In a recent letter signed by a Division Chief, Apotheker’s law enforcement authority has been “temporarily revoked.” The letter mandates the removal of his badge, tactical phone, radio, body armor, and electronic control device, relegating him to administrative duties with a significant cut in pay,” James...
