Cartels shift tactics: Kidnappings and organ trafficking surge as border crossings plummet under Trump policies

Mexican cartels are moving from migrant smuggling to kidnapping American children for organ harvesting and human trafficking, per counter-trafficking expert Pete Chambers.
Cartels exploit domestic security gaps, with Houston now the top U.S. city for child abductions; victims are often shipped overseas in refrigerated containers, many dying en route.
Children aged 2–5 are targeted for their organs, while trafficking networks use "sponsor families" as fronts; recent cases include containers of children sent to North Africa.
Strict border policies reduce smuggling but fail to address root causes like drug addiction and black-market demand, allowing cartels to pivot to more violent revenue streams.
Chambers emphasizes that defeating cartels requires curbing greed and demand, alongside faith-based and tactical efforts, as "evil never satiates itself" without systemic change.
