Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, produced a horror film depicting the horrors of the 'Narco slave trade' along the US-Mexico border.
Ted Cruz and border officers begin the film by responding to a group of migrants who entered the border late at night. He emphasizes that the great majority of migrants are economically exploited by the drug gangs who bring them into the United States.
Sen. Ted Cruz Reveals Horrible Situation in Southern Border
Sen. Ted Cruz said that these youngsters arrive in thousands of dollars in debt to nasty cartels, and the teenage guys labor for the gangs in every city in America, and the teenage girls endure a hell worse than that, with far too many of them human trafficked into sex slavery, Cruz says in the film. "Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are to blame for America's greatest slave pandemic since the Civil War," said Cruz.
While the southern border has experienced an uptick in migration each spring, the surges in 2021 and 2022 greatly surpassed prior years. Biden said in March 2021 that the border surge was what occurs every year, even though the United States had 1.7 million border crossings by the end of that year, an all-time high, Fox News reported.
In a violent video broadcast Monday night, Sen. Ted Cruz claimed to have evidence of a narco slave trade taking place at the southern border, stating that thousands of migrant minors are working in gangs or being transported into sex slavery across the US.
Migrant Children in Southern Border Recruited for Human Trafficking
In recent months, border agents have detained hundreds of migrants as part of human smuggling operations along the southern border, though the government has yet to produce statistics from the fiscal year 2022 on how many foreign national minors and foreign national adults were recognized as victims of sex or labor trafficking.
According to the State Department's 2022 Trafficking in Persons Report, the Department of Health and Human Services issued 527 certification letters to foreign national adult victims of severe forms of trafficking in FY 2021, up from 508 in FY 2020.
Of those, 14 percent were recognized as sex-trafficking victims, 68 percent as labor-trafficking victims, 16 percent as victims of both trafficking forms, and 2 percent as victims of an unknown severe type of trafficking, as per New York Post. The Biden administration is dealing with an unprecedented volume of border crossings.
According to the most recent Department of Homeland Security estimates, an average of 441 unaccompanied minors will cross the border and wind up in custody each day this year. A leaked estimations indicate that as many as 161,000 adolescents are likely to cross the border this year.
This is an almost 50% increase over the previous year. As a result, the crisis is far from over, with Republicans continuing to criticize the White House and Democrats. With the announcement of June numbers last week, crossings are at an all-time high, with approximately 1.75 million crossings so far in the fiscal year 2022.
As stated in the most recent quarter's numbers, 200,000 migrants have traveled via the southern border per month for the previous three months. However, officials continue to argue that the border is closed, despite Republican claims, according to Daily Mail.
