Sen. Ted Cruz, a Texas Republican, put President Joe Biden and his Vice President Kamala Harris on blast in a very graphic new video that he released on Monday evening which shows the shocking impact drug cartels are having on the surge of migrants flooding across the southern border.
The video Cruz shared on social media opens on a caravan of high-profile vehicles traveling at night before moving to pictures featuring groups of illegal immigrants as they walk the roadway in the darkness.
“These children come in, in debt to vicious cartels — thousands and thousands of dollars,” Cruz goes on to say in the video. “And the teenage boys work for the gangs in every city in America. And the teenage girls experience a hell worse than that, with far too many of them human-trafficked into sex slavery.”
“Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are responsible for the worst plague of slavery in America since the Civil War,” he continued. “This is not compassionate. This is not humane. This is barbaric.”
According to Newsmax, the video then reveals photos of bodies of migrants who didn’t survive, including one that features a parent and child face down in the water near the edge of the shore.
This is horrific. However, this is precisely the kind of evil that Biden is allowing to take place as he neglects to take action on the border crisis. This is the price being paid for the Democratic Party to play games with demographics and try to inflate their voter rolls.
Sickening, isn’t it?
The video, which is very unnerving and disturbing, closes out with the statement, “Abolish the narco slave trade.”
Cruz then stated in the caption for the video, “President Biden doesn’t want Americans to know that he has been ignoring the narco slave trade taking place along our southern border.”
“Immigrants who made it across the southern border told Noticias Telemundo Investiga that drug cartels kidnap families both before they attempt to cross the border and after they are expelled,” the Newsmax report said.
Once a migrant is kidnapped it usually results in the individual being forced into a car at gunpoint before being told to unlock their cellphones. If these victims should dare to respond to their captor with a refusal, a finger is cut off.
The abductors then attempt to extort money from the family of the victim. They kick off these negotiations by threatening to beat or rape the victim, then use the victim’s cellphone in order to send out pictures of the aftermath of what is done to them.
“Researcher Guadalupe Correa-Cabrera told NBC News that the immigrants do not report attacks by the cartels,” Newsmax reported.
“They don’t report them because they threaten them if they do so, and they don’t know who to turn to,” Correa-Cabrera explained. “Most kidnappers have ties to the authorities, so it’s virtually impossible that they’ll take action against them. It is the perfect business.”
“After the Biden administration said it would not rapidly expel unaccompanied minors, Reuters reported that approximately 10,000 children illegally crossed into the United States by themselves in February 2021, which was almost twice the number that crossed the month before, according to Customs and Border Protection data,” the report continued.
A trio of human smugglers have reportedly told Reuters that they have been encouraging parents to send kids to the U.S.-Mexico border, unaccompanied, because of the shift in U.S. policy.
“It’s good to take advantage of the moment, because children are able to pass quickly,” Daniel, a Guatemalan smuggler went on to say in a discussion with the news outlet. “That’s what we’re telling everyone.”
This has to stop before more innocent lives are lost.
Biden has the power to fix this situation by simply building the wall and enforcing the immigration laws currently on the books.
