The Biden administration is being accused of running a large-scale child trafficking operation in relation to the “border crisis.” Findings on this from a grand jury were detailed in a 142-page document from the Supreme Court of Florida.

Similar accusations were recently made by Department of Health and Human Services whistleblower Tara Lee Rodas. While testifying before the House Judiciary Committee, she stated that, “whether intentional or not, it can be argued that the U.S. government has become the middleman in a large scale, multi-billion-dollar child trafficking operation that is run by bad actors seeking to profit off of the lives of children.”

During the 2023 White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington, President Joe Biden declared that “a poison is running through our democracy and parts of the extreme press. Truth buried by lies and lies living an honest truth.” Yet what is the “extreme press” and what is this alleged “poison” running through the American system?

Tucker Carlson struck a chord in a video published on Twitter after he left Fox News. In it, he raises a new debate for the news outlets of the world, questioning whether the stories of choice actually matter for the public, and questioning even more deeply why the stories that matter are not being discussed.
