WASHINGTON—The Department of Justice has secured the return of alleged human trafficker Kilmar Abrego Garcia, and will prosecute and imprison him in the United States, Attorney General Pam Bondi said at a press conference Friday.
“Abrego Garcia has landed in the United States to face justice,” Bondi told reporters. “This is what American justice looks like,” Bondi said. The attorney general went on to thank various other agencies that aided in the Justice Department’s investigation, as well as El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele.
“On May 21st, a grand jury in the Middle District of Tennessee returned a sealed indictment, charging Abrego Garcia with alien smuggling and conspiracy to commit alien smuggling,” Bondi said. “Our government presented El Salvador with an arrest warrant, and they agreed to return him to our country. We&#8217;re grateful to President Bukele for agreeing to return him to our country to face these very serious charges.”
Abrego Garcia became a cause célèbre after his deportation, with Democrat politicians and members of the mainstream media dubbing him a “Maryland man” and insisting that he had been incorrectly deported. Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen (D) even flew to El Salvador to visit the illegal alien, despite mounting evidence that he had been engaged in transnational criminal activity.
Now, Bondi says, there is no longer any doubt that Abrego Garcia was a criminal.
“The grand jury found that over the past nine years, Abrego Garcia has played a significant role in an alien smuggling ring,” she said, noting that he made over 100 trips back and forth from the United States to smuggle violent gang members and terrorists, as well as “thousands of illegal aliens.”
“This is especially disturbing, because Abrego Garcia is also alleged to have transported minor children,” Bondi said. “The defendant traded the innocence of minor children for profit.”
The attorney general then revealed “even more disturbing facts the grand jury uncovered,” including that Abrego Garcia worked with the smuggling ring “responsible for the death of more than 50 migrants in 2021” following a tractor-trailer accident in Mexico.
Bondi also revealed that co-conspirators allege Abrego Garcia “abused undocumented alien females” and &#8220;solicited nude photographs and videos of a minor.”
The grand jury investigation also revealed that Abrego Garcia used SUVs with false bottoms to smuggle firearms and narcotics into the country.
“These facts demonstrate Abrego Garcia is a danger to our community,” Bondi said.
The Supreme Court ruled after Abrego Garcia’s deportation in March that the United States had to “facilitate” the illegal alien’s return to the country despite him being a Salvadoran national. Now that he’s been returned, Bondi said, he will be charged and imprisoned in the United States. The attorney general says she suspects Abrego Garcia will be returned to El Salvador “upon completion of the sentence.”
In April, authorities began investigating a 2022 traffic stop in which Abrego Garcia was pulled over, but not detained. Asked by a reporter on Friday what changed between that traffic stop and today, Bondi had a simple answer.
“What has changed is that Donald Trump is now president of the United States, and our borders are now secure.”

On the surface, Victoria Sinis is indistinguishable from so many other marketing professionals.
Young, vivacious, and personable, the twenty-something Australian seems like she does PR for a cosmetics company or a trendy tech startup.
But Sinis’ job was something else entirely. For eight months, she trolled social media sites for girls who seemed underage or “barely legal,” and coaxed them into posting explicit content on OnlyFans.
The job was easier than it may seem. All she had to do was lie.
“If we had approached them with the truth and said, ‘Hey, do you want to sign up to do porn? We’ll take 20% of your income. You’re probably not going to earn a lot. You&#8217;re going to have to do some really extreme things. You&#8217;d be like, ‘No!’” Sinis told The Daily Wire.
Instead, she and the other recruiters messaged potential porn performers about their positive “vibe,” and invited them to lavish parties on yachts or fly them in to stay at villas in exotic locales.
Recruiters “show girls this lifestyle, and then say, ‘Would you like to be an OnlyFans creator and maximize your earnings?’” Sinis says.
While influencers parade high-rise apartments and luxury vacations on social media, the average OnlyFans creator earns about $180 a month.
“There’s a cultural myth that you can just sell feet pics and buy a Mercedes,” Sinis says. “But it’s a full-time job for very little return. We had girls post 20 videos a day across five accounts. We had SEO experts, lighting setups, even script templates.”
Sinnis worked at an OnlyFans agency, one of thousands of such companies that have sprung up to exploit both performers and their customers, who believe they’re purchasing access to these women.
While precise statistics are hard to come by, it has been estimated that there are roughly 3,000-5,000 such small agencies globally, and around 300-500 larger, <a href="https://www.creditdonkey.com/best-onlyfans-agency.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">more established agencies</a> with significant client rosters and operations. Along with the 20% they pay to OnlyFans, managed performers also have to fork over a hefty commission of their usually meager earnings to them.
The existence of these agencies reveals the demand for adult content on OnlyFans, which was launched in 2016 with the promise that it would allow celebrities and influencers to monetize their content by selling it directly to fans.
At first, OnlyFans did not allow “not safe for work” content. But the platform lifted that prohibition in 2017, and the adult performers began flocking to the site. As COVID lockdowns fueled digital consumption in 2020, that trend only grew.
Today, it&#8217;s estimated that between <a href="https://social-rise.com/blog/onlyfans-statistics">70% and 80%</a> of OnlyFans’ 3 million creators are considered “not safe for work.”
Sinis joined her agency shortly after graduating with a marketing degree. She’d been working in hospitality, but when some friends approached her to join their company, she thought it seemed harmless. And she enjoyed working with her clients, women her agency euphemistically called “content creators,” many of whom she describes as funny and sweet.
As a recruiter, Sinis was tasked with convincing young women who had already built up a following posting risqué photos on Instagram or TikTok to take it one step further to overt “sex work.”
Her employer had a very specific target in mind.
“We recruited based on how young [the women] looked,” Sinis told The Daily Wire. Because girls who looked like they could plausibly be labeled “teen,” “fresh 18,” or “barely legal” made the most money, she and her fellow recruiters cold-messaged girls who looked underage or newly-adult and dazzled them with promises of potential wealth.

TikTok channels like The BOP House (short for Baddies on Point), which features a host of OnlyFans girls living in an L.A. mansion, boasting of their seven- and eight-figure earnings, have helped make the pitch easy. Convinced that they can earn massive incomes selling their bodies, some young tween and teen girls, Sinis says, are already filming pornographic content to prove their “experience” to OnlyFans recruiters, hopeful they might one day occupy the digital successor to Hugh Hefner’s Playboy Mansion.
What recruiters don’t mention: these girls won’t make much at all, unless they’re willing to film the most explicit and extreme content.
At Sinis’ agency, creators were asked what “level” of content they were comfortable filming. The scale ran from posing in lingerie (Level 1) to “everything but anal” (Level 4), and finally, violent sex and other hardcore acts (Level 5).
“Very quickly, we dropped Level 1 because it didn’t make money,” she says. That meant all the girls they recruited pretty much started at Level 2 — implied nudity. The recruiter’s job was to convince the women to advance through the levels.
“It isn’t, ‘You must do this,’” Sinis explains. “It’s more subtle than that. We would say things to the girls like, ‘This custom request for some explicit performance is worth $500. Are you sure you want to pass that up?’”
“We call it consent but really we were slowly wearing the women down. When a girl would say no to a custom video, and then get offered $1,000, we would continue to push them with, ‘Hey, we’re just checking in. Totally up to you though.’ But it’s not. It’s coercion.”
Some custom requests weren’t even sexual — just dark. One man, for instance, wanted a fake video of a man hanging off a ledge while a woman stepped on his fingers. These darker requests were what finally caused Sinis to question the work she was doing.
“When virtual sadism doesn’t cut it, what’s next — real violence?” she asks. “We are feeding violent, sexualized fantasies. And then we’re surprised when those fantasies spill into the real world.”
After visiting a church service one weekend and thinking of all the women she helped bring into porn, she tendered her resignation.
“I was crying every day, unable to open my laptop when I got to work,” she says. “I kept asking my coworkers, &#8216;Do you think it’s okay, what we do?&#8217;”
What they do is feed delusions — not just to the women they recruit, but to the men who subscribe.
OnlyFans’ appeal is that, unlike other pornographic websites, it allows subscribers to have a seeming personal interaction with performers. But subscribers who “chat” with performers often aren’t interacting with the women on screen.
“We hired chatters, cheap labor from the Philippines, who worked 12- to 16-hour days pretending to be these women,” Sinis says. These workers are given scripts and trained in the “girlfriend experience,” keeping men emotionally tethered, often believing they have genuine relationships with the creators.
“It plays on male loneliness, on their emotional vulnerability,” Sinis tells The Daily Wire. “We exploited men for profit just as much as we did the women performing.” This included training the “chatters” on upselling custom requests.
Sinis believes these men, often married or isolated, aren’t paying for explicit content so much as the sense of intimacy and validation it gives them.
“I had a guy tell me he thought he had a real connection. I had to break it to him: it’s all scripted. You&#8217;re talking to a stranger, quite possibly another man, on another continent.”
Nowhere are these false relationships more harmful than with young men. Children, on average, first see pornography at age 12, though some are exposed to explicit content as young as seven. Studies show that rising pornography consumption is fueling an epidemic of emotional withdrawal, and causing a sharp drop in dating and relationships among Gen Z males.
“I met a 13-year-old boy in Georgia who broke down in tears telling me he watches porn and no one knows,” Sinis recalled. “The shame, the secrecy — it’s soul-crushing.”
Since leaving the industry, Sinis has begun to consider how we might roll back the damage that porn is doing to society. As someone who’s been on the inside, her prescription for change isn’t limited to legislation, though she supports age verification laws like those passed in Utah.
Instead, she advocates for cultural revolution: equipping parents, educating children early, and building a counter-narrative that emphasizes the importance of marriage, family, and faith.
“We need to stop shaming young men and women, and start attacking the real enemy: the $97 billion porn industry that’s consuming them both,” she says.
“This world has light and darkness,” Sinis said. “And OnlyFans feeds the darkness.&#8221;

British prosecutors on Wednesday announced they will charge Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan Tate for rape, human trafficking, and other crimes.
The Crown Prosecution Service confirmed ten charges against Andrew Tate, 38, related to three women. His younger brother, 36-year-old Tristan, faces eleven charges related to one woman, according to <a href="https://www.politico.eu/article/andrew-tate-tristan-tate-uk-rape-human-trafficking-charges/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Politico Europe</a>.
The charges were approved last year after evidence was obtained from the Bedfordshire Police.
“We can confirm that we have authorised charges against Andrew and Tristan Tate for offences including rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm against three women,” the service said in a statement.
“These charging decisions followed receipt of a file of evidence from Bedfordshire Police. A European Arrest Warrant was issued in England in 2024, and as a result the Romanian courts ordered the extradition to the UK of Andrew and Tristan Tate,” it continued. “However, the domestic criminal matters in Romania must be settled first.”
“The Crown Prosecution Service reminds everyone that criminal proceedings are active, and the defendants have the right to a fair trial. It is extremely important that there be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings,” the statement concludes.
Wednesday’s announcement is the latest in a series of accusations against the Tates from the sordid to the criminal. The two brothers were first arrested in December 2022 by Romanian authorities. Initial charges in Romania were of rape and human trafficking, but they have since been expanded to include sex with a minor and trafficking underage persons.
The Tates have said they are innocent of all charges and portrayed themselves as the targets of a high-powered conspiracy meant to silence them.

The Tates are also under investigation in Florida. Attorney General James Uthmeier <a href="https://x.com/GabeGroisman/status/1927794394557555065" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> on a recent episode of the podcast “Standpoint with Gabe Groisman” that he is probing potential criminal activity by the Tates that may have taken place within his jurisdiction.
“To me, when they&#8217;re making statements that sound an awful lot like criminal activity, I think as attorney general, I&#8217;ve got a duty to investigate and make sure that we&#8217;re not subjecting, you know, women in our state to dangers,” said Uthmeier. “If there’s a crime that occurred here in our jurisdiction, we&#8217;ve got a prerogative to prosecute it, and we will do so.”
In March, Andrew Tate’s ex-girlfriend, Brianna Stern, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ex-girlfriend-accuses-andrew-tate-of-abuse-violence-in-lawsuit-if-you-ever-betray-me?author=Tim+Pearce&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Ex-Girlfriend+Accuses+Andrew+Tate+Of+Abuse%2C+Violence+In+Lawsuit%3A+%E2%80%98If+You+Ever+Betray+Me%E2%80%99" target="_blank" rel="noopener">filed</a> a lawsuit in California alleging that the elder Tate beat and abused her during their relationship. She also provided text messages that suggest Tate warned Stern against speaking out against him.
“The last time I saw Andrew was on March 11, 2025 at the Beverly Hills Hotel. The last words he said to me before I left the hotel were: ‘Shut the f*** up, b****. You will never backtalk me. You are my property,’” Stern wrote in a statement.
Tate’s attorney dismissed the lawsuit: “This is a blatant cash grab — a desperate attempt by a sad individual to exploit Andrew’s success and reputation for personal gain.”

Homeland Security agents on Friday detained the first illegal migrant gangbanger under President Trump&#8217;s newly-invoked 18th-century Alien Enemies Act — a Venezuelan human trafficker and member of the Tren de Aragua gang.
DHS agents and Florida police arrested Franklin Jose Jimenez-Bracho by reportedly &#8220;steering&#8221; him directly into a group of officers with handcuffs ready, authorities revealed Friday, per the New York Post.
Jimenez-Bracho, identified as a &#8220;known Tren de Aragua gang member&#8221; by DHS, was wanted for human trafficking and smuggling.
&#8220;Once again, Florida leads the way,&#8221; Florida Governor Ron DeSantis posted on X following the arrest.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
FDLE and Florida Highway Patrol Troopers, in participation with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Homeland Security Task Force Orlando, today arrested a known Tren de Aragua gang member—the first arrest conducted in the nation under the Alien Enemies Act according to HSI.… <a href="https://t.co/1uEhj5BGgJ">pic.twitter.com/1uEhj5BGgJ</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
The detention marks the first use of Trump&#8217;s invocation of the 18th-century Alien Enemies Act, which his administration is utilizing to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members without hearings.
This follows Trump&#8217;s January decision to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ice-arrests-a-ringleader-of-violent-venezuelan-gang-tren-de-aragua">classify</a> Tren de Aragua as a foreign terrorist organization.
The Trump administration has already taken significant action against illegal immigrant gang members, deporting approximately 250 alleged gangbangers to El Salvador&#8217;s Terrorism Confinement Center last Saturday.
This deportation occurred despite U.S. District Judge James Boasberg&#8217;s order to turn the planes around, causing significant controversy.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt defended the administration on X, writing: “The Administration did not ‘refuse to comply’ with a court order. The order, which had no lawful basis, was issued after terrorist TdA aliens had already been removed from U.S. territory.”
“The written order and the Administration’s actions do not conflict,” Leavitt said.
Video <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/these-are-the-monsters-trump-admin-deported-over-250-gang-members-to-el-salvador" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posted</a> by Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele showed the deportees being handed over to armed commandos who moved them to the prison facility with their heads down and ankles and wrists in shackles.
Senior Homeland Security officials recently reported that the administration&#8217;s mass deportation effort has yielded more than 32,000 arrests in its first 50 days, with 70% of those arrested either facing charges or convicted of crimes.
The Alien Enemies Act, originally passed in 1798, grants the president broad authority to apprehend and remove non-citizens from countries with which the United States is at war or that threaten invasion.
The Trump administration has now applied this rarely-used law to target Venezuelan gang members as part of its broader immigration enforcement strategy.

Illegal Immigration

U.S.

Florida police announced Thursday that they had arrested 25 <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/illegal-immigration" target="_blank" rel="noopener">illegal immigrants</a> in a human trafficking sting earlier this month.
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said in a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCAJo-XTVyM" target="_blank" rel="noopener">news conference</a> that his department had arrested 157 people as part of “Operation Autumn Sweep,” an undercover anti-human trafficking operation conducted from October 2 to October 7. Included in the arrests were illegal immigrants from Venezuela, Colombia, Honduras, Cuba, Guatemala, and Mexico.
“Sixteen percent of these total arrests were people who should not even have been in this country,” Judd said. &#8220;But they were here. And they were here because we have a federal government that enabled these criminals to come into the country and then treated them very well after the criminals came here illegally.”
In one instance, Judd said that one of the women arrested told authorities that she flew from Venezuela to Mexico before crossing into Texas where she was “greeted by Border Patrol.” 
“There was no sneaking. She flew in, she got here, she simply walked across the open border. There is no border security at the southern border. Zero. It doesn’t exist,&#8221; Judd said.
Judd said the woman was told she would be eligible for benefits included SNAP, Medicaid, free housing, and free travel.
“She was given free housing, all because the United States paid for that,” Judd said. “This was not a stealthful act, and they gave her free travel, free housing, free food, free medical care. All while people from the hurricane are still waiting for help.”
Judd said that Travis Hutchinson, one of the men arrested during the operation, was trafficking two women from Colombia and Venezuela. They had been brought illegally into the United States by a human trafficker known as a coyote before they were sent to Florida.

The sheriff had harsh words for the Biden-Harris administration, which he said was facilitating human trafficking with its border policies.
“Make no mistake about it, the government is complicit and is aiding and abetting human trafficking in the United States,” Judd said. “In addition to that, there is a wide-open border where fentanyl is coming across, and that is encouraged, and as a result of that, we have thousands upon thousands of people dying in the United States. And then the best that our federal politicians can say was, ‘well, it didn’t kill as many people this year as last year.’”
Another three of the suspects nabbed in the operation worked at <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/we-always-have-disney-employees-florida-sheriff-reveals-results-of-human-trafficking-investigation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Disney World</a>, according to the Polk County Sheriff’s office. “We always arrest Disney employees,” Judd said, describing the operation.
The Polk County Sheriff&#8217;s office was aided by law enforcement from surrounding counties and cities during the operation, which was cut short due to Hurricane Milton.

“Despacito” <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/music">singer</a> Luis Fonsi just released a new music video for the upcoming anti-child trafficking <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/movies">film</a>, “City of Dreams,” a signal that Hollywood could be &#8220;waking up&#8221; to the global issue that&#8217;s spotlighted in the film, according to commentators. 
The Puerto Rican recording artist posted a video of the song to almost 32 million subscribers on YouTube, including a caption that said he was “really proud of this one.” Fonsi said he was “honored to be part of a movie that has the power to change and save kids’ lives.”
The music video is interspersed with scenes from the movie, which was inspired by real events. Per <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/city_of_dreams_2024">Rotten Tomatoes</a>, the movie “follows Jesús, a young Mexican boy whose dreams of becoming a soccer star are shattered when he&#8217;s trafficked across the border and sold to a sweatshop making fast fashion in downtown Los Angeles.”
<iframe loading="lazy" title="City of Dreams | Official Music Video | Luis Fonsi" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RNYiPQx8R_8?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
The description says, “Thrust into a world of exploitation and despair, he&#8217;s forced to adhere to the grueling work schedule dictated by El Jefe, a boss who promises freedom for those who complete their quotas. Despite Jesús&#8217; hellish existence, he finds solace in Elena, a girl who was similarly betrayed and sold into slavery. When she goes missing and another co-worker Carlitos is severely beaten, Jesús realizes that the only way to save himself and the others is to fight back, even if it costs him his life.”
“City of Dreams” is scheduled to be released in theaters nationwide on August 30. Fonsi’s new single release comes on the heels of the massive success of “Sound of Freedom,” a film about child trafficking that outperformed expectations at the box office last summer.
“Sound of Freedom” is based on a true story of Tim Ballard — played by actor Jim Caviezel — a federal agent who quits his job to rescue a young girl from sex slavery in South America. The Angel Studios film brought in $184 million at the box office against a $14 million production budget.

Buy here for a theater near you.</a>
Commentators took Fonsi&#8217;s video as a sign that Hollywood is finally willing to speak out about child trafficking.
&#8220;Hollywood is FINALLY waking up to child trafficking,&#8221; <a href="https://x.com/WatchChad/status/1824483248862319083">said</a> radio host Chad Prather.
More artists are associating themselves with films that have potentially controversial messages, including rap artist Bryson Gray coming out with the “Am I Racist?” <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbitlyZMOdk">single</a> ahead of the nationwide release of Daily Wire host Matt Walsh’s new film of the same name.
The film explores the grift of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and dives into how racism and anti-racism has morphed over the years.
&#8220;Racism has a specific definition, but they keep trying to twist it to mean something else, like they do with gender, and that&#8217;s bearing false witness,&#8221; Gray <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/exclusive-release-matt-walshs-am-i-racist-premieres-new-video-from-bryson-gray">told</a> The Post Millennial. &#8220;Academics like to slap on the propaganda because it suits their agenda.&#8221;
&#8220;It&#8217;s identity politics,&#8221; he continued. “And it&#8217;s funny because for the party that claims to be one of inclusion, it&#8217;s funny how much time they spend making a hyper-focus on these issues. Usually we judge people on their character, or their values, and that&#8217;s how I know if I can mix with someone.&#8221;
&#8220;Am I Racist?&#8221; is scheduled to be in hundreds of theaters across the nation on September 13. Fans can purchase tickets to a showing near them at <a href="http://amiracist.com/">amiracist.com</a>.

Authorities in Ventura County, California, were tipped off last week to a suspected sex trafficker and rapist when a 17-year-old girl who was allegedly smuggled into the U.S. by the Mexican national texted 911 from the house she was being held in.
The Ventura County Sheriff&#8217;s Office <a href="https://local.nixle.com/alert/10989739/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> on Thursday that &#8220;In the early morning hours of May 9th, deputies working the Ojai Sheriff’s Sub-Station rescued a female human trafficking victim who had text[ed] &#8216;911&#8217; to the Ventura County Sheriff’s Communication Center.&#8221;
The young girl doesn&#8217;t speak English and could only provide details about the landmarks surrounding the house, but officers translated the texts into English and pieced together the clues given by the 17-year-old. Despite the limited information, deputies found the victim in just 20 minutes.
&#8220;Simultaneously as the call taker was engaging with the victim, other members of the communications center team were successful in giving real time information to deputies responding to the search. After about twenty minutes of searching the area of Casitas Springs, the victim was found by deputies,&#8221; the sheriff&#8217;s office added.
After she was rescued, the girl gave more information to deputies, which helped them identify and track down the suspect, Gerardo Cruz. The suspect was arrested and booked on multiple charges, including Human Trafficking, Forcible Rape, Lewd Acts Upon a Child, Luring, and Sexual Penetration with Force, the Ventura County Sheriff&#8217;s Office said. Cruz&#8217;s bail was set at $500,000.
Following a preliminary investigation, authorities said that the teenage victim was trafficked into California from Mexico around two months ago. The southern border crisis that has exploded under President Joe Biden has <a href="https://www.congress.gov/118/meeting/house/116344/documents/HHRG-118-JU08-20230913-SD003.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">opened the door</a> for human traffickers to take advantage of loose U.S. laws to boost their exploitative enterprise.
Authorities encouraged people to contact law enforcement immediately if they know a human trafficking victim or suspect that someone is running a human trafficking operation.

&#8220;Human trafficking affects all of us. Thousands of people are trafficked each year into the United States and forced into sex and labor markets,&#8221; the sheriff&#8217;s office said. &#8220;Most victims are forced into mounting debt and quarantined from contact with family and friends.&#8221;

Sen. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/chuck-grassley" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chuck Grassley</a> (R-IA) announced an investigation this week into reports that unaccompanied illegal immigrant children found at the southern border were being placed by HHS with people in the United States linked to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/ms-13-gang" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MS-13</a>.
Grassely <a href="https://www.grassley.senate.gov/news/news-releases/grassley-scrutinizes-hhss-improper-care-of-unaccompanied-migrant-children" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> that he was “conducting a sweeping review” of how HHS and its contractors find homes in the United States for illegal immigrant children who are found at the border without a parent or guardian. The Iowa Republican said he had sent letters to nine contractors to determine more about their vetting and placement process.
“My office has been informed through legally-protected whistleblower disclosures, including contractor records, showing children were sponsored without proper vetting or care, and at addresses that may be part of possible child-smuggling or trafficking rings,” Grassley <a href="https://www.grassley.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/grassley_to_deloitte_consulting_llc_-_orr_contractors_and_grantees.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> in the letters.  
“Shockingly, children were even placed by HHS and one of its contractors after they were notified of likely MS-13 gang affiliation in the household, and records related to this placement appear to have been deleted, a possible attempt to cover up actions taken by the contractor and HHS,” he added. 
The contractors who Grassley reached out to were Deloitte Consulting LLP, Center for Family Services, General Information Dynamics Technology, Alba Care Services, Holy Family Institute, Global Refuge, U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, Morrison Child and Family Services, and Sunny Glen Children’s Home. 
Grassley told the providers to provide him with specifics on how sponsors for the children are verified, records on where and how the children were transported, and how the organization tracked outcomes.
The letters also referenced “an apparent obstructive instruction” from HHS when it sent a letter on February 28 telling providers to direct questions about their work to the government agency.

“I personally brought up HHS’ obstructive conduct directly with HHS Secretary Becerra on March 14 in a Senate Finance Committee hearing,” Grassley said. “At the hearing, Secretary Becerra affirmed that contractors have the right to respond to this congressional inquiry. Furthermore, Congress has the constitutional authority, and the duty to conduct robust oversight on government agencies and contractors who receive taxpayer money for their work.”
An inspector general <a href="https://oig.hhs.gov/oei/reports/OEI-07-21-00250.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a> released in February found that many children were released to sponsors who had not had their fingerprints checked or been run through state child abuse registries. The report also said that over a third of the time, HHS and its contractors did not ensure documents provided by the sponsor could even be read. 
Illegal immigration has remained high under President Joe Biden with record highs of unaccompanied children being found at the border.

Border Patrol officials told lawmakers that smugglers charge illegal immigrants from China up to $60,000 to unlawfully enter the United States, according to a <a href="https://justthenews.com/sites/default/files/2024-01/Joint-CPA-Transcribed-Interviews-Report-01-16-2024-FINAL-pdf.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a> released on Tuesday from Republicans on the House Committee on Homeland Security. 
Border Patrol chiefs told the committee earlier this year that transnational criminal organizations effectively controlled the U.S. southern border, charging thousands of dollars to people looking to sneak into America. The cost of entry into the U.S. increased depending on how far away you were coming from and where you were entering, they said. 
The average cost was estimated to be around $8,600, but could be around $60,000 if you were coming from China. A record number of Chinese nationals have been encountered by Border Patrol in the last year. 
Human smuggling and trafficking have proven to be an incredibly lucrative business for the cartels as a record number of illegal migrants have surged to the border under President Joe Biden. 
Chief of U.S. Border Patrol Jasen Owens estimated during his time as the Del Rio sector chief that transnational criminal organizations were making more than $30 million weekly on human trafficking and smuggling operations in that part of Texas. 
Aaron Heitke, the Chief Patrol Agent for the San Diego sector, said that “it costs more to go through an area that has a better chance of getting away.” 
Many women are raped during the process as well, with Heitke saying that some of the women see it as part of the payment to get through. 
The cartels exert heavy control over the southern border area, reportedly beating migrants who attempt to illegally enter the United States without paying them. Laredo Chief Patrol Agent Joel Martinez said that his team found two bodies washed up on shore, one of whom was shot between the eyes and the other whose head was half shot off. He said they suspect these were people who tried to cross without the cartel’s permission. 
During their interviews with the committee, the Border Patrol agents said that one way to deter illegal immigration would be to detain everyone instead of releasing thousands into the country with court dates set years in the future. 
“I think optimally, other than the rare occasion where you have someone with a crazy medical condition, everyone should be detained. And that, to me, is the most obvious way to not encourage illegal immigration, is everyone’s held until they have a hearing,” said Tucson Sector Chief Patrol Agent John Modlin.

El Centro Chief Patrol Agent Gregory Bovino said that border walls helped as well. “In many of those areas now, where there is border wall, we see very little vehicular incursions across the desert between ports of entry, and a decrease in pedestrian crossings at the border, especially where the 33-foot wall exists,” he said. 
Biden <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/delusional-biden-says-southern-border-is-not-in-crisis-as-illegal-crossings-surge" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has denied</a> that there is a crisis at the border even as Border Patrol reportedly recorded more than 300,000 illegal immigrant encounters at the southern border in December, a new <a href="https://abc7chicago.com/us-mexico-border-crossings-all-time-high-immigration-news/14261305/#:~:text=Migrant%20encounters%20reach%20all%2Dtime%20high%20along%20southwest%20border%20with,is%20threatening%20to%20sue%20Texas.&amp;text=ABCNews-,There%20were%20302%2C000%20encounters%20along%20the%20southwest%20border%20in%20December,recorded%2C%20sources%20told%20ABC%20News.">record</a>.

A high-end brothel network servicing &#8220;wealthy and well-connected clientele&#8221; in apartment complexes in <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/massachusetts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Massachusetts</a> and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/virginia" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Virginia</a> was uncovered by federal investigators, leading to the arrest of three men allegedly connected to the commercial sex ring.
&#8220;This commercial sex ring was built on secrecy and exclusivity, catering to wealthy and well-connected clientele,&#8221; acting U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts Joshua Levy <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/massachusetts-virginia-brothel-prostitution-commercial-sex-ring-arrests/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a news conference in Boston.
Authorities said in a <a href="https://www.justice.gov/usao-ma/pr/three-arrested-operating-high-end-brothel-network" target="_blank" rel="noopener">news release</a> the commercial sex buyers included elected officials, high-tech and pharmaceutical executives, doctors, military officers, government contractors who possess security clearances, professors, attorneys, scientists, and accountants, among others.
&#8220;Pick a profession; they&#8217;re probably represented in this case,&#8221; Levy said.
Levy said the identities of the commercial sex buyers were not shared, but indicated that could change as the investigation is ongoing and far from over.
The three individuals charged with conspiracy to coerce and entice to travel to engage in illegal sex activity included James Lee, 68, of Torrance, California, Han Lee, 41, of Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Junmyung Lee, 30, of Dedham, Massachusetts.
According to the court documents, the three men operated an interstate prostitution network in multiple brothels in Cambridge and Watertown, Massachusetts, as well as in Fairfax and Tysons, Virginia, from at least July 2020.
Authorities said the men allegedly enticed primarily Asian women to travel to Massachusetts and Virginia to engage in prostitution in rented high-end apartment complexes as brothel locations that were furnished and regularly maintained.
<a href="https://onelink.to/dwapp">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP</a>
The three men accused allegedly ran two websites that advertised nude Asian models for professional photography at upscale studios as a front for prostitution offered through appointments with women listed on their websites.
Levy said clients would first have to fill out a form with personal information, including their names, work information, email addresses, phone numbers, and a reference, before booking an appointment, costing up to $600 an hour.
The clients were then given a &#8220;menu&#8221; of options and paid the women in cash.
&#8220;Business is booming, until today,&#8221; Levy told reporters.
If convicted, the charged individuals face up to 20 years in prison and fines of up to $250,000.
&#8220;It&#8217;s through these investigative efforts that we shine a light on sexual trafficking as a global issue,&#8221; Cambridge Police Commissioner Christine Elow <a href="https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/feds-to-announce-sophisticated-high-end-brothel-network-bust-in-mass-va/3184748/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reportedly</a> said at the news conference.

A suspected <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/human-trafficking" target="_blank" rel="noopener">human smuggler</a> drove a car full of people from Honduras into an SUV in <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/texas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Texas</a>, killing eight people across both vehicles, state authorities said on Wednesday.
The crash happened on U.S. Highway 57 near Batesville, which is about an 83-mile drive southwest from San Antonio, a spokesperson for the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) said post to X.
According to DPS, the operator of a Honda passenger car from Houston suspected of human smuggling passed an 18-wheeler in a no-passing zone while evading the Zavala County Sheriff&#8217;s Office.
&#8220;The driver drove head-on with a Chevy SUV, causing the vehicle to burst into flames, killing the driver &amp; passenger from Georgia,&#8221; the DPS spokesperson said.
&#8220;As a result, five passengers, including the suspected smuggler of the Honda, were killed. Troopers confirmed several of the deceased are from Honduras,&#8221; the DPS representative added.

Elected officials and others took note of the deadly incident by calling attention to President Joe Biden&#8217;s struggles with border security.
&#8220;President Biden’s open borders policies have invited 7M illegal aliens into our country — with deadly consequences,&#8221; <a href="https://twitter.com/SenTedCruz/status/1722368500306530634" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) in a post to X.

8 Killed In Texas Crash Involving Suspected Human Smuggler

Texas

Sen. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/ted-cruz" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ted Cruz</a> (R-TX) shared this week what he saw at the U.S. border during his most recent visit to an area in his home state that has turned into a catastrophe zone because of Biden administration policies.
Cruz made the remarks during an episode of his &#8220;Verdict&#8221; podcast with co-host Ben Ferguson while talking about his visit to the U.S.-Mexico border late last week with Sens. John Cornyn (R-TX), John Barrasso (R-WY), Mike Lee (R-UT), and Pete Ricketts (R-NE).
&#8220;One of the things we learned, which I had never heard, which is in the past year, the Biden administration has put out new guidelines for pursuit of illegal aliens,&#8221; Cruz said. &#8220;This is illegal aliens that are running, that are trying to get away. And the guidelines, you&#8217;d have to effectively call them guidelines for non-pursuit, because they are told you cannot pursue illegal aliens if there is anything that could potentially endanger someone&#8217;s safety.&#8221;
Cruz noted that for example, this meant that if there were four people in the back of a vehicle and there were only three seatbelts, agents could not pursue them because if there was an accident, a person would get hurt. He said that the policy has actually encouraged traffickers to do dangerous things because they know that agents won&#8217;t pursue because of Biden&#8217;s policy.
He said that during a midnight patrol, he saw a disturbing situation where there was a group of a couple dozen people, mostly women and children, and there were cues from things that the children said that officials believed was a sign that they were being trafficked.
&#8220;The one that was haunting for me was in the back there was this man, a grown man, maybe 35 years old,&#8221; Cruz said. &#8220;And he was with a little girl who was 10. And he said she was his daughter. She said he was her dad. It was obvious to everyone he was not her father.&#8221;
&#8220;He had his arm around her. And it was like locked tight, like he was holding her, almost so she wouldn&#8217;t run away,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;And the look of terror in that little girl&#8217;s face. She was so frightened of this large, sweaty man who had his arm around her and was saying he was her father. And there&#8217;s a frustration and helplessness that there&#8217;s nothing we can do, that nothing the Border Patrol can do. Because when they take them in, the Biden administration instructs them &#8216;release them.'&#8221;
Cruz said that Biden canceled DNA testing at the border so it was now much harder, if not impossible, to determine if children were coming into the country with their actual parents or if they were being trafficked.
&#8220;Biden canceled the DNA tests,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Like, you want to talk about one of the great scandals, these Democrats who prance around and say they&#8217;re so compassionate, they no longer test to find out if father and alleged daughter or father and alleged son are related because they don&#8217;t want to know, they don&#8217;t care. They are perfectly happy just leaving a pedophile with a little girl or a little boy who&#8217;s being abused.&#8221;
<a href="https://onelink.to/dwapp">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP</a>
He said that the little girl that he saw would likely be forced into prostitution for the next several years and that there was nothing any of the senators could do to stop Biden&#8217;s policies.
