‘Living in sex-slavery’: Biden admin was ‘paying individuals that were knowingly trafficking’ kids

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who was made a special envoy for Western Hemisphere security on Thursday and will be leaving DHS, unleashed a stunning comment during a congressional hearing this week:

During the Joe Biden administration, the federal government actually was paying human traffickers to take unaccompanied migrant children.

“The one thing that has been challenging is that under the Biden administration, the government paid sponsors,” under HHS programs, which were tasked with relocating and taking care of unaccompanied children.

“Those sponsors, many times, we found instances where they trafficked these children themselves,” Noem told Congress.

“Under the Biden administration, she said, “we not only had children in this country that were part of a program, the government was paying individuals that were knowingly trafficking them and abusing them.”

A report from the Washington Stand noted the trafficking was in addition to the fact that the Biden administration also misplaced hundreds of thousands of children.

Her comments came during testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee.

She charged her predecessor, Alejandro Mayorkas, then-Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, and their boss, Joe Biden, knowingly placing unaccompanied alien children in the custody of human traffickers, who were then paid by the administration, the report said.

She confirmed under President Donald Trump, that practice now has stopped.

“We have gone through and found these children and put them back with their families when we have been able to do so,” she said.

Tom Homan, the nation’s border czar, earlier confirmed Trump’s intent to track down nearly 500,000 children that were lost under Biden.

“We gotta save these kids, a lot of them are living a life of hell every day,” Homan said earlier. “We’re gonna find some of them living with pedophiles, living in sex-slavery, some are gonna be dead, but we gotta find these children.”

HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. confirmed in earlier comments that the Biden administration was complicit in the trafficking of immigrant children.

He said, “Under the Biden administration, the federal government became the biggest facilitator of child abuse in our country. My predecessor prioritized speed over safety. In stark contrast, this administration is putting a halt to the child trafficking problem. We are fingerprinting every sponsor, DNA testing, income testing and valid ID testing. Nobody gets a kid until they prove they are a family member.”

Experts pointed out under Biden, the government waved in hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied children who crossed into the U.S. illegally, then were handed off to “well-paid contract shelters,” which in turn gave them to “sponsors.”
