HHS report exposes migrant children program fraud

E. PUT IN DANGER, LEFT ALONE THE. SUFFER. HHS HIGHLIGHTING REAL-LIFE. EXAMPLES, LISTEN TO THIS, LIKE A. 15-YEAR-OLD GIRL WHO WAS. RELEASED TO A MAN CLAIMING TO BE. HER BIOLOGICAL BROTHER. THEY SAY, QUOTE, THE OFFICE OF. REFUGEE RESETTLEMENT DID NOT. REQUEST FINGERPRINTS OR DNA TO. VERIFY THE RELATIONSHIP. AND IN OCTOBER 2023, AUTHORITIES. DETERMINED THAT THE SPONSOR WAS. NOT RELATED TO THE UNACCOMPANIED. CHILD AND HAD ALLEGEDLDLY RAPED. AND IMPREGNATED HER. THEY ALSO HIGHLIGHTED THE STORY. OF A 17-YEAR-OLD BOY WHO WAS.

RELEASED TO SOMEONE CLAIMING TO. BE HIS STEPSISTER. QUOTE, THE PURPORTED SPONSOR. PRESENTED VENEZUELAN DOCUMENTS. THAT HHS COULD NOT AUTHENTICATE. IN OCTOBER 2024, THE. UNACCOMPANIED CHILD WAS FOUND. DEAD IN THE BACKSEAT OF A CAR. WITH HIS GENITALIA EXPOSED ALONG. WITH AN UNCONSCIOUS 30-YEAR-OLD. MALE. WOW. MY NEXT GUEST, BORDER CZAR TOM. HOMAN, HAS MADE SAVING THESE. CHILDREN A PRIORITY, BUT OVER ON. CNN, THEY SAY HE IS MAKE UP THIS. CRISIS.

>> I KNOW TOM HOMAN HAS BEEN BIG. ON THIS LOST CHILDREN THING. BUT BUT THE IDEA THAT THESE. CHILDREN WERE LOST OR MISSING. HAS NEBRASKA BEEN TRUE. HAS NEVER BEEN TRUE. SOME OF THEM WERE RELEASED INTO. THE CUSTODY OF RELATIVES OR. OTHER CARETAKERS WHICH IS PART. OF THE PROCESS OVER MANY --. >> THEY OFTEN OR WERE RELEASED. THE ADULTS WHO WEREN'T VERIFIED. >> LISTEN, I'M NOT -- HIS. CHARACTERIZATION OF THEM AS. BEING LOST HAS NEVER BEEN. ACCURATE. KAYLEIGH: JOINING ME NOW, BORDER. CZAR TOM HOMAN.

TOM, THE LOST CHILDREN THING IS. WHAT WE JUST HEARD. IT WAS NOT A THING, IT WAS A. TRAGEDY. YOUR THOUGHTS. I KNOW THESE CHILDREN ARE ON. YOUR HEART:. >> WELL, LOOK, WHEN PRESIDENT. TRUMP CALLED ME THE SECOND TIME. TO COME OUT OF RETIREMENT THE. SECOND TIME, HE SAID IS I NEED. YOU TO DO THREE THINGS; SECURE. THE BORDER, RUN A HISTORIC. DEPORTATION OPERATION AND FIND. 300,000 CHILDREN. BECAUSE OUT OF 500,000, JUST. UNDER 500,000 ARE TRAFFICKED IN. THE COUNTRY.

THE LAST ADMINISTRATION LOST. ABOUT 300,000. I DON'T CARE WHAT THAT LADY. SAYS, SHE HASN'T WORN MY SHOES, SHE HASN'T BEEN INVOLVED IN THIS. GAME FOR 40 YEARS. 300,000 CHILDREN WERE. UNACCOUNTED FOR AND LOST, AND. THE LAST ADMINISTRATION WASN'T. EVEN LOOKING FOR THEM. WE'VE GOT THE MOST SECURE BORDER. IN THE HISTORY OF THE NATION, RECORD NUMBER OF ARRESTS AND. DEPORTATIONS. I TOLD THE PRESIDENTNT FROM DAY. ONE, THE HARDEST THING IS. FINDING THESE 300,000 CHILDREN. WE CAN FIND YOU AND ME. YOU OWN A HOME, A CAR, YOU USE A.

CREDIT CARD, PAY UTILITY BILL, YOU HAVE A DIGITAL FOOTPRINT, WE. CAN FIND YOU. TO FIND THESE CHILDREN, WE HAVE. TO RELY ON THE DIGITAL FOOTPRINT. OF THE SPONSORS, AND WE KNEW. BASED ON WHISTLEBLOWERS AND FROM. PAST PRACTICES THAT THEIR. IDENTIFICATION WEREN'T VERIFIED, HOME ADDRESSES WEREN'T VERIFIED. SO I KNEW COMING IN WHEN WE GOT. CONTROL OF THESE FILE, WE'D HAVE. A HARD TIME FINDING THESE KIDS, AND SHOE ENOUGH, IF MANY OF. THESE ADDRESSES WERE PARKING. LOTS, GROCERY STORES, CHURCHES.

THESE WERE FRAUDULENT. THESE PEOPLE DIDN'T EVEN EXIST. WITH THE NAME THEY CLAIMED TO BE. THE SPONSOR. ABOUT 30% OF THE PEOPLE WHO SAID. THEY WERE FAMILY MEMBERS WEREN'T. EVEN RELATED FOR DNA. THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE. BECAUSE OF PRESIDENT TRUMP'S. LEADERSHIP AND COMMITMENT, BECAUSE THIS WAS HIS PRIORITY. THAT HE ASSIGNED TO ME, THE MEN. AND WOMEN OF I.C.E. AND THE FBI. HAVE LOW LOCATED JUST UNDER. 157,000 OF THESE CHILDREN. DESPITE THAT WHAT THAT LADY SAY,

MANY WERE WITH FAMILY HIDING. OUT. HOWEVER, MANY, TOO MANY, WERE. VICTIMS OF SEX TRAFFICKING AND. FORCED LABOR. PRESIDENT TRUMP'S LEADERSHIP. SAVED, SAVED THESE CHILDREN'S. LIVES. KAYLEIGH: WOW. AMAZING WORK. I WANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT AN. INCIDENT THAT TOOK PLACE THIS. WEEK IN NEW YORK, A MAN BY THE. NAME OF OSCAR BELGAL WAS IN A. CAR THAT WAS SHOT AT BY I.C.E. OFFICERS. HERE'S HOW MAYOR MAMDANI. INITIALLY CHARACTERIZED THIS. INCIDENT. LISTEN TO THIS. >> HERE'S WHAT WE KNOW.

I.C.E. AGENTS SURROUNDED THE. MAN'S VEHICLE BEFORE OPENING. FIRE. THEY WORE CONSTRUCTION VESTS AND. MASKS THAT CONCEALED THEIR. FACES. THERE WAS NO REASONABLE WAY TO. IDENTIFY THEM AS I.C.E. AGENTS. KAYLEIGH: THAT'S HOW HE. CHARACTERIZED IT. OSCAR IS NOW RECOVERING. WHAT HAPPENED IN THIS CASE? >> WELL, HERE'S WHAT I KNOW, BECAUSE OF GOVERNOR HOCHUL AND. MAYOR MAMDANI'S SANCTUARY CITY. POLICIES, THIS PERSON ALONG WITH.

THOUSANDS OF OTHERS WERE. ARRESTED BY THE LOCAL POLICE, BUT THEY DIDN'T HONOR OUR. DETAINERS. SO THEY RELEASED THEM BACK ON. THE STREET TO RECOMMIT CRIMES. AGAINST THE CITIZENS OF THAT. CITY AND STATE. SO IF WE WOULD HAVE HAD ACCESS. TO HIM WHEN HE WAS ORIGINALLY. ARRESTED BY NYPD, NONE OF THIS. WOULD HAVE HAPPENED. BUT THEY NEED TO UNDERSTAND, I. TOLD HIM AND GOVERNOR HOCHUL. BOTH, LET US IN THE JAIL. WE CAN ARREST THE BAD GUY, THE. CRIMINAL IN THE SAFETY AND. SECURITY OF A JAIL.

IT'S SAFER FOR THE COMMUNITY, IT'S SAFER FOR THE OFFICER, IT'S. SAFER FOR THE ALIEN BECAUSE. ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN ON THE. STREET. BAD THINGS HAPPEN. BUT THEY CHOOSE TO RELEASE THEM. AND WHEN THEY RELEASE THEM, WHAT. HAPPENS? WE SEND A WHOLE TEAM TO FIND. THEM. AND THINGS LIKE THIS, THESE. TRAGEDIES HAPPEN. BUT THE MEN AND WOMEN OF I.C.E. PERFORM EXACTLY AS THEY'RE. TRAINED. THIS MAN TRIED TO RUN AN OFFICER. OVER. HE FEARED FOR HIS LIFE, SO HE. TOOK ACTION. AND NOW THIS PERSON'S IN. CUSTODY. HE'LL BE CHARGED WITH A FEDERAL.

CREAM OF ASSAULTING A FEDERAL. LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER. BUT MANY OF THESE INSTANCES. COULD BE AVOIDED IF THEY SIMPLY. GIVE US ACCESS TO THE BAD GUY IN. THE SAFETY AND SECURITY OF A. JAIL RATHER THAN RELEASE HIM IN. THE COMMUNITY. KAYLEIGH: AFTER MAYOR MAMDANI. CHARACTERIZED THE INCIDENT THAT. WAY, HE CALLED FOR ACTION WITH. REGARD TO I.C.E. LISTEN TO THIS. >> WE WANT I.C.E. OUT OF OUR. CITY, I.C.E. OUT OF OUR SCHOOLS, I.C.E. OUT OF OUR HOSPITALS, I.C.E. OUT OF OUR STREETS.

WE WANT THAT, BECAUSE WEWE WANTO. KEEP THE CITY SAFE. WE DO NOT NEED THEM TO DO SO. ALL THEY DO IS TERRORIZE THE. CITY. KAYLEIGH: I MEAN. HOW, THAT SOUNDS DANGEROUSICALLY. CLOSE TO ABOLISH I.C.E. -- DANGEROUSLY CLOSE. >> THE SAME PEOPLE THAT OPENED. THE E BORDER BROUGHT UNLESS INTO. THE COUNTRY HAVEN'T APOLOGIZED, THEY HAVEN'T CHANGED. I DON'T KNOW WHAT COLOR THE SKY. IS IN MAMDANI'S WORLD, BUT. I.C.E. ISN'T GOING ANYWHERE. WE'RE GOING TO BE IN NEW YORK.

CITY, IN NEW YORK STATE IS, WE'RE GOING TO KEEP ENFORCING. THE LAW. THAT'S WHY PRESIDENT TRUMP'S IN. THE OVAL OFFICE. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE VOTED FOR A. SECURE BORDER, THE MOST SECURE. BORDER IN THE HISTORY OF THE. NATION, AND HAY VOTED TO ENFORCE. IMMIGRATION LAW. THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE GOING. TO DO, IN NEW YORK CITY AND. EVERY OTHER SANCTUARY CITY. HE CAN SCREAM AND YELL ALL HE. WANTS. HE'S NOT GOING TO STOP US FROM. DOING THIS JOB. AND GOD BLESS THE MEN AND WOMEN. OF I.C.E. THEY ATTACK I.C.E. OFFICERS ALL. THE TIME. LET'S REMEMBER, THEY'RE MOMS AND.

DADS TOO. THEY DON'T HANG THEIR HEART ON A. HOOK WHEN THEY GO TO WORK. THEY HAVE TO PUT A GUN ON THEIR. HIP AND WEAR A KEVLAR VESTST, AD. A LOT OF THE ATTACKS THAT ARE. HAPPENING, PEOPLE DON'T WANT TO. COMPLY WITH I.C.E. WHEN YOU'VE. GOT PEOPLE LIKE MAMDANI AND. HOCHUL SAYING I.C.E. ISN'T A. REAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY, HERE'S HOW TO EVADE THEM, DON'T. OPEN YOUR DOOR. THEY CALL I.C.E. RACIST AND. NAZIS, SO IS THEY EMBOLDEN. PEOPLE NOT TO COMPLY WITH. FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT. I SAID FROM DAY ONE THIS HATEFUL. RHETORIC'S GOING TO RESULT IN.

BLOODSHED. IT'S SAD, IT'S UNFORTUNATE. I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANY. TRAGEDIES, BUT THIS HATEFUL. RHETORIC CONVINCES THAT SMALL. PERCENTAGE OF CRAZIES ON THE. LEFT IT'S OKAY TO NOT COMPLY. IT'S OKAY Y TO PUT HANDS ON AN. I.C.E. OFFICER, IT'S OKAY TO TRY. TO RUN HIM OVER, AND IT'S NOT. THE MEN AND WOMEN OF I.C.E. ARE. PATRIOTS. THEY'RE GOING TO KEEP DOING THIS. JOB IN NEW YORK CITY AND EVERY. OTHER CITY ACROSS THIS COUNTRY. KAYLEIGH: TOM, NO DOUBT, THEY DO. GREAT WORK, OUR I.C.E. MEN AND. WOMEN, AND THEHEY'RE IN OUR. PRAYERS. WE JUST HAVE A FEW MOMENTS, BUT.

THE ADMINISTRATION IS TAKING. ACTION ON H-1B VISAS. THIS IS IMPORTANT TO A LOT OF. AMERICANS WHO FEEL THEY'RE. DISPLACING AMERICAN WORKERS. JUST YOUR QUICK REACTION, WHAT. IS THE ADMINISTRATION DOING ON. H-1B VISAS? >> THEY'RE SAVING AMERICAN JOBS. I'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR A LONG. TIME. SOME OF THE BEST PAYING JOBS. WITH THESE TECH COMPANIES, AND. RATHER THAN HAVING AN AMERICAN. DOING THAT JOB THAT HAS A. COLLEGE DEGREE TO DO THAT TYPE. OF WORK, THEY'RE BRINGING A. FOREIGN WORKER IN ON AN H-1B.

BECAUSE THEY CAN PAY THEM LESS.. THIS IS ABOUT PROFIT OVER. PROTECTING AMERICAN JOBS. PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS A GREAT. IDEA, IT'S LONG OVERDUE, AND. THIS IS GOING TO SAVE AMERICAN. JOBS. AND KIDS GOING TO COLLEGE RIGHT. NOW FOR I.T. DEGREES, GUESS. WHAT? THERE'S GO.
