“HHS has lost track of around 40,000 kids. I mean, think about that. We have no idea where they are. We don’t know who they’re with. We don’t know what they’re doing.”
Today, I sit down with Julio Rosas, a senior writer for Townhall and a U.S. Marine in the Reserves. Since 2020, he’s been traveling to the middle of the action to report on chaotic, and often dangerous, situations.
“These are big stories, and we can’t rely, unfortunately, on the rest of the media to accurately relay the importance of it or tell the story,” says Rosas.
We discuss the recent hearing on the border crisis in Yuma, Arizona, in which the House Judiciary Committee spoke with local residents about how mass migration has affected their community.
“The only major hospital for many, many miles around … they’re out $26 million dollars because of medical care that they’ve had to provide to illegal immigrants. But they’re not paying them back, the migrants,” explains Rosas.
We also discuss his book, “Fiery But Mostly Peaceful: The 2020 Riots and the Gaslighting of America,” and how well-intended policies and our obsession with race have ended up exacerbating racial tensions, enabling crime, and stoking further division.
“There are so many parallels between the border crisis and the crime crisis because just like with the cartels, the criminal elements are more emboldened than ever,” says Rosas.
