Finally: New York Times Admits Biden’s ‘Migrant Children Work Brutal Jobs’

Hundreds of thousands of migrant teenagers are working “brutal jobs” to pay off their smuggling debts amid President Joe Biden’s loose border rules, the New York Times admitted in a February 25 article.
“Cristian works a construction job instead of going to school. He is 14 … Carolina packages Cheerios at night in a factory. She is 15 … Wander starts looking for day-labor jobs before sunrise. He is 13,” are the newspaper’s captions of photographs showing young teenagers admitted via the “Unaccompanied Alien Child” border loophole.
The children usually work for staffing companies at low-wage subsidiaries of Fortune 500 companies, such as PepsiCo., General Mills, Walmart, Target, and Ben & Jerry’s.
The article is headlined: “Alone and Exploited, Migrant Children Work Brutal Jobs Across the U.S.”
The article may crack the bipartisan establishment’s shameful silence about its wealth-shifting policy of extracting teenagers — and millions of foreign migrants — to replace sidelined U.S. workers.
The report by Hannah Dreier admits:
These workers are part of a new economy of exploitation: Migrant children, who have been coming into the United States without their parents in record numbers, are ending up in some of the most punishing jobs in the country, a New York Times investigation found. This shadow work force extends across industries in every state, flouting child labor laws that have been in place for nearly a century. Twelve-year-old roofers in Florida and Tennessee. Underage slaughterhouse workers in Delaware, Mississippi and North Carolina. Children sawing planks of wood on overnight shifts in South Dakota.
In November 2020, Dreier posted an excellent report on child workers for ProPublica.org.
The expanding population of child workers has been an open secret in Washington D.C. for several years. Breitbart News has extensively covered the official support and media tolerance for this child labor force.
The silence is ensured by Democrats’ claim they are merely protecting “unaccompanied” children in a “Nation of Immigrants.” But that claim is entwined with Democratic donors’ demands for more immigrant workers, renters, and consumers.
Biden’s progressive deputies have admitted roughly 320,000 migrant children since January 2021. “About two-thirds of all unaccompanied migrant children ended up working full time,” the newspaper reported.
GOP legislators also are silent about the scandal, even though the Democrat-backed child abuse is far larger and more deliberate than Trump’s supposed “separation” policies of 2018 and 2019. GOP leaders forego the political opportunity likely because they do not want to antagonize their local donors by ever mentioning the economic purposes of the government’s migration laws.
The youth labor trafficking pipeline was largely stopped in 2020 by former President Donald Trump amid loud opposition from Democrats and immigration reporters.
The article by the New York Times, however, is likely to crack the establishment silence about the massive scale of child exploitation.
Unsurprisingly, the newspaper soft-pedals the complicity of Democrats and migration advocates in this human rights scandal.
For example, the newspaper minimizes any mention of the two architects of the child labor force — Biden and his pro-migration border chief, Alejandro Mayorkas.
