In an astounding revelation, conservative luminary Tom Holman has laid bare the staggering tale of the Biden administration’s border policies gone awry. According to reports from the Department of Homeland Security, upwards of 145,000 unaccompanied children have been rescued after being lost in the shuffle of what can only be described as a chaotic handling of border security. With a breathtaking number of more than 450,000 migrant children purportedly lost due to these open border strategies, the situation demands a closer examination.
The problem, as discussed by whistleblower Tara Rhodess, isn’t just about losing track of children—it’s about what happens to them when the system fails. Rhodess, who heroically stepped forward with critical intelligence while working at DHS, highlighted that gang members, specifically from infamous groups like MS-13, were attempting to sponsor vulnerable young migrants. Such predators clearly saw an opportunity to exploit these children, and it’s fortunate that during the Trump administration, measures were put in place to mitigate this sinister threat.
The Trump administration is noted for having implemented practical steps, such as requiring DNA tests to confirm the legitimacy of sponsors claiming relation to migrant children. Such common-sense actions starkly contrast with the approach of the current administration, which, Rhodess contends, has faltered in its duty to protect these children. It’s a sad irony that simple safeguards could have prevented much of this heartache, yet they were initially resisted by the very people entrusted with these children’s welfare.
It’s particularly telling that now, after so much advocacy and whistleblowing, some activists are expressing concern over the plight of these unaccompanied minors. Yet, according to Rhodess, when whistleblowers first pointed out appalling conditions in detention centers, there was precious little reaction from the activist community. This selective outrage seems more performative than genuine, especially when ICE agents and others trying to find these lost children face criticism instead of praise for their efforts.
Despite the storm of criticism and hypocrisy, the current efforts to recover these children are a testament to the promise made by prominent officials and advocates. Figures like Christy Gnome and Tom Holman are steadfast in their commitment to the safety and well-being of these vulnerable souls. They, along with Bobby Kennedy at HHS, deserve credit for tirelessly doing what seems to elude the current administration at large. The hope is that the remaining children, almost 200,000 as estimated, will soon find the same salvation as those rescued so far.
