A mere four days into the Trump administration, 75,000 to 80,000 missing children who had been smuggled into the country have been found according to Harris Faulkner of Fox News, which begs the question – why didn’t Biden help these children?
These children are the byproduct of an open border; an illegal smuggling operation.
How do we know the number of the children that were smuggled into the country and have subsequently gone missing? The Biden administration reported it!
In total, there are 325,000 missing children, thus, the 80,000 Trump’s administration has found is a mere portion of the total number of children that have been known to have disappeared.
Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller says the administration will expose the child trafficking that's been happening at the border & everyone involved.

White House Official Stephen Miller confirmed this week that the Trump Administration has set a goal of finding all of the 325,000 missing children.
“This administration is going to investigate every instance of child trafficking, labor trafficking, s*x trafficking, child smuggling and all the attendant crimes involved in that,” Miller stated.
“Our message to everyone in the country is to cooperate fully with Immigration and Customs Enforcement so that we can end the scourge of child trafficking and child abuse that has been endemic these last four years.”

According to Fox News, the Department of Immigration and Citizenship is to blame as they failed to ensure proper control over these children after they were released from federal custody, but the story doesn’t end here.
A Muckraker investigation has revealed that human and child trafficking was actively being carried out by the Biden-Harris administration, as well as the ways in which hundreds of thousands of children enter the United States with the help of the federal government.
“We found that while under the care of the federal government, some children asked to be sent back to their homeland, but instead they were picked up in the middle of the night and sent to sponsors they did not know. It is also well documented that this program transferred children into the hands of criminal organizations” says Anthony Rubin, a reporter and founder of Muckraker.
The report also discovered that:
– The federal government is sending children to strangers.
– A CIA contractor is moving children across America.
– Children are being sent to labor trafficking rings.
– Traffickers use deportation as a threat to exact “debt” payments from sponsored children.
Speaking to Congressional House Committees, former ICE Director Alejandro Mayorkas testified that the Biden administration didn’t know where these children went, conveying that they had, essentially, vanished. When comparing the words of the former Biden administration official to the actions of the Trump administration today, there were obvious actions and readily available resources the Biden administration could have utilized to track down these missing children and yet, they chose not to.
Last week, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, a benefactor of large sums of government assistance and an organization that has aided those illegally entering the country, publicly denounced the Trump administration for changing rules which permit ICE to raid churches and schools as part of their efforts to crackdown on those facilitating illegal migration.
The UCCB stated that “turning places of care, healing and solace into places of fear and uncertainty for those in need” endangers “the trust between pastors” and “the people they serve.”
MIC DROP.

VANCE: If the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops is worried about the "humanitarian costs" of enforcing immigration law – let them talk about the children who were s*x trafficked because of the open border, people like Laken Riley.pic.twitter.com/jVwbFcBj5k
To this, Vice President J.D. Vance said, “As a practicing Catholic, I was actually heartbroken by that statement.
“I think that the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops needs to actually look in the mirror a little bit and recognize that when they receive over $100 million to help resettle illegal immigrants, are they worried about humanitarian concerns? Or are they actually worried about their bottom line?” he asked.
“If they’re worried about the humanitarian costs of immigration enforcement, let them talk about the children who have been sex trafficked because of the wide open border of Joe Biden,” he added of the Catholic group.
Perspective
As followers of Jesus, we know that every human being has inherent dignity and worth which comes by way of being created in the image of God (Genesis 1:27).
This conviction compels us to care about the suffering caused by human trafficking, as it dehumanizes and exploits vulnerable individuals, stripping them of their God-given rights and freedoms.
The Bible frequently calls believers to seek justice, defend the oppressed and to help those in need (Isa. 1:17; Prov. 31:8-9; Matt. 25:40) and human trafficking stands as a direct violation of these principles.
As believers, caring for and promoting those seeking to help individuals who have been trafficked aligns with the heart of God.
By working to rescue those who have been trafficked and advocating for justice, believers participate in the kingdom work of healing and restoring broken lives. This also serves as a reflection of God’s ultimate purpose for all people—freedom, dignity and reconciliation.
Supporting efforts to combat human trafficking and providing care for survivors is a tangible way to live out the Christian call to love our neighbors as ourselves (Matthew 22:39) and to “Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter” (Proverbs 24:11).
