Advocates Worry for Migrant Children

In a recent edition of the local newspaper there is a story professing worry about underage illegals under the new administration. An immigration attorney claims to be losing sleep over the fact that all three components of the federal government are now in control of the same political party - labeling underage illegals incredibly vulnerable with no political power.

What would any rational being expect? These lawbreakers are in our country without status of citizenry and in violation of our laws.

This attorney ought to be aware that foreign parents are sending their children alone – as young as two years of age. This is child abandonment and/or abuse. There are cartels who – for a steep price – say they will shepherd children to the US. Our current administration admits to having lost track of thousands of minors.

Back in Barry's administration families were separated and we have seen photos of the children behind caged walls where they could be fed and clothed. Now the cartels sell them as sex objects, workers, etc.

Recently we saw how the Biden administration's horrific border policy has devolved. It showed photos of a two year old who entered the state of Texas with only a scrap of paper with a telephone number. This is the result of the current administration's catastrophic policies.

Let us be thankful that Trump and Tom Homan are now in charge. They are the real humanitarians. I am hopeful these people remain in their own countries and fight to improve their own government rather than violate our sovereign border. We don't like that in Ukraine; why tolerate it here?

In liberty,
