For The Sake Of Their Safety

I tweeted, I blogged, and I wrote my governmental representatives. I wish that there was more that I could do.

Child predators and human traffickers

pose as children's parents,

and children are intimidated

into saying nothing,

and that is why children

are separated from adults in prison,

and girls are separated from boys,

for their SAFETY.

Just another political ploy:

“To the barbaric and unacceptable policy of ripping children from the arms of their parents at the border...barbaric. That’s not American. It’s not faith-based,” said Pelosi, D-Calif., at the National Hispanic Prayer Breakfast in Washington, D.C.

* Eventually...

Finally, the government has taken steps to stop releasing unaccompanied minors to criminals and traffickers.

“The Obama administration released thousands of unaccompanied alien children to criminal sponsors. I know because I was the Homeland Security whistleblower who legally came forward in late 2015 to the U.S. Office of Special Counsel and to Sen. Chuck Grassley’s office about the releases. And I thought it was wrong. Only now is this serious and dangerous problem finally being dealt with.

“In summer 2015, I was a member of the Obama’s White House Security Council’s Human Smuggling Cell, which was run by the Department of Homeland Security. On Aug. 4, 2015, I was sent a spreadsheet from senior Immigration and Customs Enforcement managers. The spreadsheet provided data, including criminal history checks of UAC sponsors.

“There were 29,000 sponsors on the massive spreadsheet; 3,669 of the sponsors were convicted of crimes. The crimes ranged, among other things; from re-entry after deportation (a felony offense) to assault to actual sex crimes.”
