First, I apologize if this material has been covered before. It was new to me when I saw it. This twitter thread by "TheLastRefuge2" has some good points with regards to illegal immigration and child trafficking. https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1010988993683623936.html http://archive.li/uRVvt It is a 50 tweet thread but I will summarize the relevant points. I have substituted archived links for some of the author's original links as a way of data preservation.

8. May 2013 - President Obama attended a gathering of leaders from the Central American Integration System, (CAIS). 9. The regional network includes the leaders of Belize, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama. President Obama meets with the leaders of the Central American Countries. 10. Summer 2013 – Numbers of Illegal Unaccompanied Minors reaching the Southern U.S. border from El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua doubles. 20,000+ reach U.S. Southern border by travelling through Mexico. Media primarily ignores. https://web.archive.org/web/20140722065739/http://fpc.state.gov:80/documents/organization/228521.pdf 12. An estimated 850% increase in the number of Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC's) were reported to the White House. https://web.archive.org/web/20140722065739/http://fpc.state.gov:80/documents/organization/228521.pdf [In 2012 less than 10,000 were projected] 13. January 2014 – In response to the projections, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) posts a jobs notification seeking bids to facilitate 65,000 Unaccompanied Alien Children. http://archive.is/0OoIa 14. IMPORTANT. This job posting was January 2014. The Obama administration was planning for 65,000 childhood arrivals. In January 2014 they were taking contractor bids for services to be used later in year. Almost no-one noticed. https://www.scribd.com/document/230531475/Federal-Job-Posting-for-Juvenile-Transport-of-Unaccompanied-Minor-Aliens-1-29-14 15. On January 29, 2014, the federal gov. posted an ad seeking bids for a vendor contract to handle “Unaccompanied Alien Children“. Not just any contract mind you, a very specific contract – for a very specific number of unaccompanied minors: "65,000." http://archive.is/0OoIa https://kek.gg/i/7CTKwr.jpeg https://kek.gg/i/5qQgkG.jpeg 37. Southwest Key has been given $310,000,000, in taxpayer funds so far in 2018. And that’s just one company, in one part of a year. Prior CTH research showed this specific “Private Company” nets 98.76% of earnings from government grants. https://perma.cc/4MLW-JKHX http://archive.is/x7rNt https://kek.gg/i/6_NdnB.jpeg 38. Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service, which provides foster care and other child welfare services to migrant children. “Faith Based Immigration Services” is a code-speak for legalized human smuggling. https://perma.cc/8UP3-WEMV http://archive.li/fatoS https://kek.gg/i/5jMjzB.jpeg 39. The “faith-based” crew don’t want it to stop, because facilitating illegal alien import is now the financial bread and butter amid groups in their base of support. https://perma.cc/8HG3-ZGTN http://archive.is/HVMQj https://kek.gg/i/7ZTdmq.jpeg 40. The man/woman in the pew might not know; but the corporation minister, preacher or priest (inside the process) surely does. BIG BUSINESS !! https://perma.cc/XV62-NVBQ http://archive.li/HC3LX https://kek.gg/i/4PxhjN.jpeg

The thread ends with the Washington Post article entitled "Obama Administration placed children with human traffickers" http://archive.is/BlDy5

Personally, I was surprised to hear that Obama knew about how many children were going to show up. He always made it seem like it caught him off-guard. Secondly, I was shocked to see how much Christian organizations make off illegal immigrant children. It reminds me of the Laura Silsby situation, where she pretended that she was a missionary but used her position to make money trafficking kids. It is possible that some if not all of the Christian organizations have fine intentions. But we shouldn't just assume so because of their religious affiliation.

EDIT: I just noticed I spelled border wrong in the title. I don't know how to correct that. Please let me know if you do.

EDIT 2: I just found out that @MolochHunter covered this topic 6 days ago https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/2606463. I supposed this thread should get the "Old News" flair or something like that.
