On Tuesday, March 30, a U.S. Border Patrol surveillance camera in Santa Teresa, NM, captured what officials described as a "disturbing" video of human smugglers dropping two young children over a border wall west of Mt. Cristo Rey. This is a direct result of the Biden Administration and liberal/leftist Democrats incentivizing children's use as a method to enter and stay in the US illegally. Smugglers also use the children to distract the Border Patrol.
El Paso Border Patrol Sector Chief Gloria Chavez said she was "appalled by the way these smugglers viciously dropped innocent children from a 14-foot border barrier." Officials said two smugglers could be seen fleeing the scene after dropping the helpless 3-year-old and 5-year-old sisters from Ecuador over the wall.
Border agents said the two girls appear to have been "mistreated," and they were taken to a local hospital for evaluation before being taken to a temporary holding facility.
"If not for the vigilance of our agents using mobile technology, these two tender-aged siblings would have been exposed to the harsh elements of the desert environment for hours,” Chavez said.
America provides millions of dollars in foreign aid to Ecuador and other countries for social programs. We must stop sending that money if these countries do nothing to help their citizens and let them come illegally to the US, where they are abused and mistreated.
Democrats must stop letting children into the country and thus end the incentive to use the children.
