Who remembers the hysterical sound and fury of open borders leftists last summer over President Donald Trump's detention and enforcement policies at our besieged southern border?
Remember the #FamiliesBelongTogether, #WhereAreTheChildren, #AbolishICE and #MeltICE hashtags?
Remember the "Trump Child Abuse," "Free the Children," "Save the Children" and "AMERICANS DON'T USE CHILDREN AS PAWNS," posters wielded at protests across the country?
Remember the 24-hour hunger strikes and Instagram-friendly border photo-ops by actresses and supermodels of the anti-Trump resistance who care, care, care, so much more than you about the suffering of migrant children?
Remember Time magazine's fake news "Crying Girl," promoted in June 2018 as a global symbol of Trump's heartless "zero tolerance" stance? Two-year-old Yanela Sanchez was never separated from her mother. In fact, she had been dragged across the border unbeknownst to and against the wishes of her father back in Honduras. He obliterated the "all migrants are simply escaping persecution and violence" narrative by revealing that he had a "good job" and the family's life was "fine." He "never got the chance to say goodbye" to his daughter before his wife paid a coyote $6,000 to bring them to the U.S.
Yanela's mother, who now bides her time awaiting an immigration court hearing in migrant housing in Washington, D.C. (most likely subsidized by you and me), abandoned her husband and three other children for a chance to win in the asylum fraud lottery. She made the decision to tear her own family apart, not Trump.
Here's my question: Where are all the caring resisters and champions of children now that deplorable human renting/recycling scams involving exploited illegal immigrant kids are coming to full light? These horror stories are the unconscionably perverse and utterly predictable consequence of incentivizing families -- real and fake -- to abuse our suicidal generosity.
The Arizona Daily Star reported this week that a Guatemalan man, Maynor Velasquez Molina, allegedly paid a family the equivalent of $130 to 'rent' their 8-year-old son to help him get into the U.S. as a "family." He and the boy were caught in February. Across Central America, the kiddie catch-and-release regime endorsed by open borders ideologues is advertised as the hottest ticket to gain entry. Aliens caught illegally crossing the Rio Grande Valley have told Border Patrol agents they surrendered with children because they expected permisos (free passes) to be granted.
"Borderwide," the Daily Star revealed, "federal officials said they had seen about 3,100 fraudulent family claims since April 2018, alongside about 260,000 migrant family members."
In another outrageous case disclosed this month, Border Patrol agents discovered a "recycled" illegal alien child who had been used by at least three "families" of unrelated adults attempting to get into the U.S. from Mexico. The practice is orchestrated by transnational criminal organizations to increase smuggling profits. One Guatemalan woman in South Carolina recycled children 13 times for payments of $1,500 each.
Border-trespassers and smugglers in turn pay drug cartels a tax -- derecho de piso -- to gain passage through sections of the border controlled by the criminal rackets. The RAND Corporation estimated revenue from derecho de piso at anywhere between $30 million to $180 million in 2017.
Federal Judge Andrew Hanen of the Southern District of Texas blew the lid off the Obama administration's deplorable role as child smuggling facilitators in a scathing 2013 ruling on the case of U.S. vs. Mirtha Veronica Nava-Martinez. Nava-Martinez, a resident alien, was an admitted human trafficker caught at the border trying to smuggle an El Salvadoran minor into the U.S. using the birth certificate that belonged to one of her daughters. The transaction had been arranged by the minor's illegal immigrant mother living in Virginia. She paid $6,000 up front on an $8,000 fee. After Nava-Martinez and the child were caught, the Department of Homeland Security did not arrest the mother. Instead, DHS "delivered the child to her" in Virginia.
Hanen noted that the Nava-Martinez case was the fourth that had come before his court in which illegal immigrant parents had paid smugglers to bring minor children across the border and the U.S. government had abetted the operations. He called the feds' actions "dangerous" and "unconscionable" for inducing parents to jeopardize their own children's safety by turning the over to strangers engaged in criminal activity with drug cartels and risking their lives in the desert. Indeed, Judge Hanen warned that "the government is not only allowing them to fund the illegal and evil activities of these cartels, but is also inspiring them to do so."
Trump's efforts to close the myriad loopholes that aid and abet this transnational illegal immigrant kiddie smuggling racket have been condemned as heartless. But what's truly inhumane are the virtue signalers who use and abuse children as pawns in their ruthless, lucrative, sovereignty-sabotaging pursuit of open borders.
Should be DNA testing these kids and their ostensible “parents” to see if the claim is backed by “science”.
I’ll bring up this story from Germany that fits well into this situation.
About four years ago...social services in Germany was getting all hyper about young kids from migrant ‘families’ who’d entered into the country, got onto the visa-program acceptance deal, and then weeks later....the kid or kids disappear. At some point, in this national ‘worry’, they were suggesting around 3k to 5k of kids who’d up and disappeared (possibly taken by pediphiles).
Well, one day...a immigrant ‘father’ in Frankfurt reported his young 8-year old son had gotten lost while accompanying the father on the Frankfurt subway system. It was only ‘father’ and ‘son’ in this family...the wife had ‘died’ prior to arriving in Germany.
So the Frankfurt cops have this interesting video-cam system in the subways. They can see literally thousands of points along the hundred-odd subway stations around the city. So they wanted to quickly interview the ‘father’ and determine the point, and narrow their search. This guy just wasn’t that cooperative.
Eventually, they did get an image of the kid being taken to a regular train, bound for Belgium. The kid entered with the ‘father’ observing this. So they brought the ‘father’ in and said you need to respond with the answers. He came to admit that the kid wasn’t his kid, and he’d borrowed this kid from a relative in Belgium, to help his case for settlement into Germany, and ensure that he got a private apartment (as a single guy, he’d have to share an open room with a number of other guys).
Cops never said much after that discovery, and the social services folks have totally shut down their worry about 3k migrant kids who’ve disappeared. All of that was a hoax driven by the fact that the Germans never confirmed the family existed in the first place.
Well; it looks like they are TOGETHER here:
The illegal alien wife managed to pay a coyote SEX THOUSAND DOLLARS to help her bring her 2 yo daughter to the US from a good middle class home etc...
and these illegal aliens get away with child abuse...
You said it.

Then the Leftist\lawyer (I repeat myself) narrative will change to “STEP-XYZ”.
I’m surprised it hasn’t already, though, Trump has given ‘em a year to get their s* ‘together’ before another non-binding threat is Tweet’d *SMH*

I saw a new story last week saying 2 hour DNA testing would start this week. Stay tuned.
For some unknown reason they are not allowed to do that with minors. They are now doing it but have to get permission from the “parent” of the minor. The real families seem to be going along with having DNA done to prove their parentage so it does make the others stick out in the crowd.
