The Trump-led U.S. Department of Homeland Security has rescued around 146,000 children who were trafficked amid Joe Biden’s calamitous open border policies, according to officials.
During a press conference this week, DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said that during the Biden administration, 450,000 unaccompanied migrant children went missing throughout the United States.
“President Trump has made it a point to go find these kids,” Mullin said.
He revealed that the interagency efforts of the Department of Homeland Security, working with agencies like Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and HSI (Homeland Security Investigations), had so far located about 146,000 children.
Tragically, almost 300,000 are still missing, he said. Even worse, he revealed that some of the children who have been rescued have claimed that they were raped up to 700 times.
“I don’t care who you are,” Mullin said. “I don’t care if you have kids, if you don’t have kids, I don’t care if you’re a liberal, if you’re Independent, you’re Democrat, you’re Republican – if you can’t stand for law enforcement to go find these kids, who are you?”
The ongoing mission to rescue these missing children is a difficult one to hear, but Mullin vowed that the DHS, under the leadership of the Trump administration, would work to undo the damage of Biden’s open border policies.
“We’re going to right the wrongs that the Biden administration turned a blind eye to,” Mullin said. “…it’s horrific what’s happening right in our country because of four years of a blind eye, that allowed unvetted sponsors to come pick up 450,000 kids on our borders, knowing…their own reports were reporting, that over a third of the females, regardless of age, was sexually assaulted before they made it to the border.”
This horrifying statistic, according to Mullin, was completely ignored by the Biden administration.
“They knew it was human trafficking that were trafficking these young kids to the border, and that they were…refusing to vet the so-called sponsors, and there was zero wellness checks,” Mullin said. “And they want to claim that Republicans, because we’re enforcing the laws, it’s inhumane somehow? What’s inhumane about taking care of our kids? As a father of six, with three young girls, I will do whatever I have to do. I will move heaven and hell to go find these kids.”
