How Many Kids Were Saved During Biden's Administration?

It's a rhetorical question. You know the answer - none. Millions upon millions of people streaming into the country illegally, not going through proper vetting, and the worst of the lot preying on kids. 

Vice-President J.D. Vance, which still has an exceptional ring to it after a week on the job, during his debate with his Democratic opponent Tim Walz, cited upwards of 320,000 children crossing the border illegally and our government has no clue whatsoever where they are now. Some are in forced labor. Many, we fear, have been sex trafficked either here in the United States or elsewhere around the globe. 

How many headlines did we see from all over the country of rapes and murders of kids and young adults at the hands of illegal aliens the Biden administration not only let in, but in many cases, disbursed across the country at taxpayer expense to spread the burden around? It wasn't just Jocelyn Nungaray and Laken Riley. And remember, only a handful of Democrats in the Senate and House went along with the Lake Riley Act when it was finally passed. The vast majority of them still voted no to the idea of deportation of criminal illegal aliens committing crimes here. 

Last Monday, all of that began to change. Tom Homan began work at 12:01 Monday afternoon, and isn't putting in a 5-day, 40-hour workweek. On Sunday, the border Czar brought Dr. Phil McGraw and his television crew along on a raid in Chicago. Who'd they nab? A child predator.

And not just one, either. Multiple child predators throughout the week. The one from today? He's from Thailand.

 ICE raids all over the country are posting pics of the perps they bag. 

There are raids happening in Denver. 

They're happening in San Antonio and Nashville.

Just under a thousand illegals, again, all with violent felony rap sheets, have been removed from the streets of America. America is objectively safer today than it was a week ago, and the Trump administration is not even close to full enforcement capacity, yet.

This Trump White House has certainly demonstrated very early on that it can walk and chew gum at the same time. Illinois Governor J.D. Pritzker appeared on CNN's Sunday show, State of the Union, with Dana Bash. His biggest concern? The bogus Elon Musk Nazi salute. 

Simultaneously, over on ABC's This Week with Martha Raddatz, she was incredulous when Border Czar Homan said yes, we are going to arrest illegals every single day of the Trump administration. She was incredulous that they're working non-stop.

Pritzker probably thought he put in a little overtime by doing the CNN hit this weekend. But Homan not only did his Sunday show, by Sunday night, he's in Pritzker's big city with Dr. Phil nabbing a child predator the Governor apparently has no problem being on the streets of Chicago.

J.D. Vance gave a master class to Margaret Brennan on Face the Nation that my pal David wrote up. The best exchange was this one.

Lots of lefties tried to seize and pounce on the Colombia story yesterday after their president tried to FA with our president. Coffee prices are going to explode because of Donald Trump, they cried. Until Colombia FO'd with the Trump response, caving faster than the Buffalo Bills offense after the two-minute warning in the 4th quarter. 

Meanwhile, the physical border fence, the one about which we've been demanding be built for decades, is going up.

In multiple counties in Texas. 

And it's not just day shift working on it. It's being built 24/7.

And in the blue sanctuary state of California, at the San Ysidro border with Tijuana, Mexico, wall is going up there as well.

This is enough activity to occupy virtually any administration for a month or better. But this is just one week of only the immigration phase of the Trump administration. The breadth and depth of actions being taken across all of government is stunning and heart-warming to see. It's almost as though conservatives finally feel like we've been heard. 

And another thing that's happening with this administration compared to the one they succeeded is they're being open and transparent about the entire process. Take the illegal criminals that are being arrested and deported. We hear numbers and see some of the embed pieces like the one Dr. Phil recorded, but this White House has begun releasing a rogues' gallery of who's been taken off the streets, and posting them on X for all to see.

Know anyone in your life who's been killed in a car accident by a drunk illegal alien? I have. He was one of my best friends and the partner in my mobile deejay business I had as a side gig back in the early 90s before I got into radio. It was devastating when he was killed. Drunk driver, on the wrong side of the road, hit him going around a blind corner and hit him head-on. He left a widow under 30 and an infant daughter who will never know her father.  

Another life lost at the hands of someone legally not allowed to be here. What's the cost to society of this one act? And it's not just the life that was lost, but the cost of how that impacted the entire family, and still does? 

Assault on a female. Think he'd stop at one? Statistics don't back that up.

He's from Ethiopia. Came halfway across the world so he could sexually abuse people here. 

Yeah, that's just what the Biden administration thought we needed - more fentanyl running around the country.

The next time you hear one of the Sunday show lefty hosts claim, "But he was vetted," ask yourself if getting to hang out in the U.S. with an Interpol red notice sounds like vetting to you.

I love this. Aggravated murder. It's not enough to just take someone's life in a premeditated fashion. But to do so with such willful and evil intent as to be barbaric about that taking of life. Now if he were a doctor working in an abortion clinic, then the left would have no problem with him whatsoever.

Another banner Biden administration vetting move here. He's from the Middle East and was suspected of being part of ISIS, and they still let him in. 

Another child rapist. And this is just a sample from the first week. Imagine what this thread is going to look like in a month, a year, and in four years. 

Every day that uncovers more willful incompetence and reckless endangerment by the previous administration is not only an indictment of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and their entire team, it's an indictment of the resistance media that covered it all up. We knew the previous administration was bad, but we're going to learn just how corrupt and rotten it was as Trump cleans up after it. 

On Saturday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio dropped a bombshell, revealing that he's learning the Biden administration, and their willing accomplices in media, covered up the number of Americans currently being held hostage by the Taliban in Afghanistan, a terror group Joe Biden surrendered to in 2021 and has been giving foreign aid money to ever since. Rubio has stopped the foreign aid cold, and is outraged to learn that more Americans are being held hostage around the world than was previously known. What's he going to do about it? Put a bounty on the heads of the hostage takers.

Trump is not going to be perfect over the next four years. But if the majority of his 209 weeks (remember leap year in 2028) are like his first, this country is going to be in a lot better shape - economically, on national security, and on foreign policy. 

But most important, just consider how many young American lives, kids or adults, are going to be saved because of actions this administration began last week. And then contrast that with the heartache, grief, and endless anguish caused by actions the last administration began in their first week. 

Democrats should never be allowed near the levers of power until they spend a long, long time in the wilderness to atone for what they've done. In too many cases to count, the political sins of the left are unforgivable.
