Bombshell NYT Report Shows White House Aware of Alien Child Abuses
Susan Rice: ‘This is B.S.’ — and she’s right, but the paper won’t admit it
By Andrew R. Arthur on April 19, 2023
In its latest investigative report on labor abuses of unaccompanied alien children, the New York Times on April 17 revealed that the Biden White House knew that migrant kids were being mistreated by traffickers and smugglers, but did little to nothing about it. At long last, light is being cast on one of the darkest corners of the administration’s border disaster. The problem is the Times won’t “connect the dots” and blame poorly thought-out federal laws, passed over a decade ago to protect migrant children, but which now facilitate the very exploitations the paper identifies.
A Brief History of Unaccompanied Alien Children. By statute, an “unaccompanied alien child” or “UAC” is an alien under the age of 18 with no lawful immigration status and “with respect to whom ... there is no parent or legal guardian in the United States; or ... no parent or legal guardian in the United States is available to provide care and physical custody”.
Inasmuch as the Biden administration has banned the statutory term “alien” from DHS’s vocabulary and the White House’s glossary of approved words by diktat, the politically correct abbreviation is now “UC”.
In any event, the Homeland Security Act (HSA) — which abolished the former INS and created DHS — created the concept of UACs as a separate alien group and vested jurisdiction for the housing and placement of UACs in removal proceedings with the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) in the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
