Pennsylvania State Police just confirmed in press conference that a fixed-wing DEA plane was used in the search for Cavalcante.
Chairman Green [Hearing on Biden/Mayorkas Border Crisis]: At least seventeen hundred migrants have been found dead on US soil…CBP stopped reporting this statistic after Y21…migrants are also being abused and exploited to an unprecedented degree; women and children are being sexually assaulted along the journey, while others that eventually make it the the United States are lured or coerced into sex slavery…brothels are operating in broad daylight in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, where immigrants are reportedly coerced into prostitution.
Chairman Green: The Biden administration cares more about politics than ensuring minors are not exploited and abused…they have lost track of eighty-five thousand UACs [unaccompanied minor children] after release…in one case, a hundred children were sent to the same address in Austin, Texas…these minors themselves are being pushed into servitude of all kinds, from the sex trade, to forced labor….when we publish our findings, the American people will be shocked and disgusted at how Secretary Mayorkas's policies have explicitly led to the mass trafficking, exploitation, and abuse of vulnerable minors.
Thompson [Hearing on Biden/Mayorkas Border Crisis]: Republicans are trying to advance their illegitimate impeachment agenda, even as the Biden administration and Secretary Mayorkas work to implement orderly and humane border policies.

Tim Ballard: A child can be sold up to twenty times a day, six days a week, for ten years, or even longer, depending on when the abuse began. Just in 2022 alone, immigration authorities encountered more than a hundred and fifty-two thousand unaccompanied minors at or near the US/Mexico border, representing an all-time high.
Tim Ballard: Tragically, as a result of this administration's current policies, DHS and HHS have unwittingly become a child trafficking delivery service.
Cantu [wife of Border Patrol Agent]: Let's not forget to mention the stress of forced vaccinations by this administration. Vax or get fired. This [is a] man-made perfect storm…with higher numbers in substance abuse, divorce rate, and suicide rate.
Gelernt [ACLU]: As we came to learn, the goal of the family separation policy was to subject families to such cruelty, that they would give up their asylum claims, and to deter other asylum-seeking families from seeking refuge here.
[when a person is arrested with a child, they are always separated; many children are used by non-family members to gain entry and for abuse]
Chairman Green: Are you [ACLU] going to sue the Biden administration over the eighty-five thousand missing children because of these policies?
Gelernt: On those children, we don't know that they are missing, I suspect their sponsors often don't answer calls from the government. I don't know that they are missing.
