Today U.S. Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) questioned Robin Dunn Marcos, Director of the Office of Refugee Resettlement, about the ongoing child migrant crisis at the southern border and the 85,000 children that the Biden Administration has lost track of.

“Do you really think that you are helping these children by releasing them to labor traffickers and yes, sex traffickers?” asked Senator Hawley. “85,000 children whom you have no contact with and your answer is—we gave them a presentation before we turned them over to these people who are exploiting them on a scale not seen in this country for 100 years.”

When Senator Hawley pressed Director Dunn Marcos to say exactly how many migrant children the department had released into the United States and was also currently in contact with, the Director had no response.

A bipartisan group of 42 attorneys general is suing Meta, alleging that features on its Facebook and Instagram social media platforms are addictive and are aimed at kids and teens, the group announced Tuesday. The support from so many state attorneys general of different political backgrounds indicates a significant legal challenge to Meta’s business.

Meta is now facing multiple lawsuits on this issue in several districts. Attorneys general from 33 states filed a federal suit against Meta in the Northern District of California, while nine additional attorneys general are filing in their own states, according to a press release from New York Attorney General Letitia James’ office. Besides New York, the states that filed the federal suit include California, Colorado, Louisiana, Nebraska, South Carolina, Washington and Wisconsin.

The lawsuits are another demonstration of the bipartisan priority state law enforcers have placed on protecting kids and teens from online harm.

“This is a tough time in America,” Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti said at a press conference after the lawsuit was filed. “We have polarization the likes of which we have not seen since the Civil War. And so for all of the attorneys general from both parties, people who frequently disagree very vocally and very publicly, to all come together and to move in the same direction, I think that says something.”

The pornography industry fuels the demand for human sex trafficking, rescue experts warn.

FOX News Digital talked to Operation Underground Railroad and Fight To End Exploitation, which devote their resources to helping victims of abuse, and they revealed that videos of sexual abuse often end up on pornography websites to unsuspecting audiences.

“There’s no such thing as innocent pornography, harmless pornography,” Matt Osborne, president and COO of Operation Underground Railroad told FOX News Digital. “You’ll never be able to know whether the pictures you’re looking at and the videos you’re watching….. (were) with a consenting individual or not, whether it was with a minor or not.”

Rachel Harrison, advocacy coordinator of Fight to End Exploitation, said there are “a lot of issues with abuse videos getting uploaded or made during the course of trafficking.”

“Pornography and sex trafficking (are) very much intertwined if you think about it, unfortunately, kind of like as a business model for traffickers,” Harrison said. “They’re doing it because they can make a lot of money. … So, for them to diversify their revenue, they’re not only exploiting people in person, but they’re also, with the advancement of technology and just social media and how everybody is online, you see a lot of pornography that’s being made in conjunction with people who are trafficked.”

The rise in porn use has also driven up the demand for children, Osborne revealed.

“It used to be adults,” he said. “There always were those preying on children, but we’re seeing an uptick in minors being exploited. (There are) a lot of reasons for that, but one is, this addiction to pornography, this oversexualization of our culture.”

A Queens family was found guilty Thursday of running a horrific years-long underage prostitution operation and bribing a small-town cop with free sexual services to look the other way while they trafficked their teenage victims.

Luz Elvira Cardona, 35, her partner Jose Facundo Zarate Morales, 34, her mother Blanca Hernandez, 53, and her mom’s partner, Roberto Cesar Cid Dominguez, 60, were all convicted Thursday after a four-week jury trial in Brooklyn Federal Court.

Cardona and her relatives were so callous that she turned her own niece into a victim — a 15-year-old girl who wanted to come to the U.S. from Mexico in 2007 to get a job at as a cleaner and start a better life, federal prosecutors said.

A Los Angeles judge has declined to dismiss a series of blockbuster lawsuits against Meta, TikTok, Snap and Google arguing their platforms are intentionally designed to addict and fuel mental health disorders in teenagers, increasing the likelihood they will have to potentially face or settle for billions of dollars the product liability claims.

In the first order advancing litigation raising a novel public nuisance theory from hundreds of government officials and parents of minors, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Carolyn Kuhl on Friday found that the companies can’t wield Section 230 — Big Tech’s favorite legal shield — to escape some claims in the case. She nodded to “the fact that the design features of the platforms — and not the specific content viewed” by users caused their injuries.

Thousands of plaintiffs across the country have sued social media companies, arguing their platforms are essentially defective products that lead to eating disorders, anxiety and suicide, among other mental health injuries. The lawsuits could lead to multibillion-dollar payouts, with similar public nuisance lawsuits from government officials in lawsuits against opioid and tobacco manufacturers having resulted in massive settlements. By steering clear of claims centering on the specific content that companies host, they’re trying to sidestep potential immunity flowing from Section 230, which has historically afforded tech firms significant legal protection from liability as third-party publishers.

On any given day, 2300 American children are missing.

Where are they? No one seems to have answers. Runaways, labor or sex trafficked minors. We know one thing. Studies show that within 48 hours, vulnerable children will be exploited.

Community creates change. It’s 2023. We must all come together and keep an eye out, report and take action if we know of or see anything. We must protect all children.
