A first-term Republican congresswoman accused the Biden administration of effectively abetting the cartels' human trafficking in the way that it resettles children who come over the border alone.
Rep. Lisa McClain of Michigan claimed the U.S. government was facilitating the back-end of the smuggling process after a trip to tour a government holding facility in her home state on Monday.
“What I saw, quite honestly, was sophisticated, organized illegal immigration,” said McClain. “I choose those words very, very carefully because the system and the process that I observed was unbelievable.”
McClain, a former businesswoman who represents a district north of Detroit, visited the Department of Health and Human Services contractor-run facility in Albion, Michigan, where 191 boys between the ages of five and 17 were being held after being flown up from the border. She said she was greeted by two of the 20 law enforcement officers who work in shifts guarding the massive Starr Commonwealth property around the clock, adding that it seemed to be a “contradiction” that the facility had a secure “border” when federal law enforcement on the southern border did not have a good hold on the international boundary. --->READ MORE HERE

Rep. Lisa McClain, R-Mich., accused the government of assisting cartels' human trafficking efforts by resettling migrant children after touring a holding facility in her home state on Monday.

Unlike the southern border, McClain said the facility was guarded securely — by 20 law enforcement officers who work in shifts. --->READ MORE HEREFollow links below to related stories:
