FBI Waives Background Check Requirements for Those Housing Unaccompanied Minors

The Democrats have repeatedly argued that "universal background checks" are a way of ensuring only law-abiding Americans can purchase firearms. While spewing that (very false) rhetoric out of their mouth, the Biden administration is rolling back requirements for caregivers taking in unaccompanied minors.
The Biden administration is utilizing tent camps, convention centers, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Border Patrol facilities, as well as other large facilities to house the record number of unaccompanied minors that are flocking across the border. In order to quickly staff these facilities, the FBI is no longer requiring fingerprint background checks for those being employed at these facilities, the Associated Press reported. These types of background checks are used to determine whether or not a person has had allegations of child abuse or neglect lobbed against them.
"Staff and volunteers directly caring for children at new emergency sites don’t have to undergo FBI fingerprint checks, which use criminal databases not accessible to the public and can overcome someone changing their name or using a false identity," the Associated Press reported.
Not only do these temporary housing facilities cost more to run – at $775 per child per day – but they don't provide the same services as permanent Health and Human Services (HHS) facilities. They also do not have to be licensed by state authorities, meaning they have less oversight.
HHS defended the decision, saying those who provide direct care or volunteer to work with the unaccompanied minors are required to "pass public record criminal background checks." The problem, however, is they're less comprehensive and rely solely on the employee and/or volunteer providing accurate information.
Back in 2018, the HHS inspector general warned that public record criminal background checks aren't nearly as comprehensive as the FBI fingerprint check.
“While the various background checks could identify some past criminal convictions or sexual offenses, these checks were not as extensive as the FBI fingerprint background checks,” the inspector general said at the time.
There's a real potential for child predators and sex offenders to "volunteer" their time at these facilities and there's nothing keeping them from lying about who they are or what their background is.
As of now, there are 5,495 unaccompanied minors in CBP custody, another 12,551 unaccompanied minors in HHS custody, meaning there are 18,045 unaccompanied minors in U.S. custody. Last week, Border Patrol had a record 1,000 unaccompanied minors captured in one day.
While the Biden administration is focused on criminalizing legal, law-abiding gun owners, they are turning a blind eye to potentially harmful people making their way into housing facilities for unaccompanied minors. If background checks are such a noble cause, why don't Democrats want them applied across the board, especially when it comes to protecting young, vulnerable children?
Is Joe Biden using illegal aliens to destroy America as founded?
Joe Biden has pledged $86M to put up migrants in hotels. The captive National Guard was deployed to D.C. on the phony pretense that members of Congress were in danger of attacks by right-wing extremists, even though there was never a credible threat. Those soldiers in service of their country were made to sleep on the ground of a parking garage and fed contaminated food. Meanwhile, there are 552K homeless Americans. Los Angeles has 66K+ homeless people living on the streets without any of the assistance the people flowing over our southern border are receiving at taxpayer expense. If this does not strike all Americans as obscene, well, they are not thinking rationally.
The Biden administration and the far-left radicals within it have turned this country upside-down; Americans bad, migrants are all good. We native-born or naturalized citizens must be punished for our privileges; illegal migrants are victims of America’s success. Kamala Harris has long wanted to decriminalize illegal entry into the country. She has compared ICE and the Border Police to the KKK! That is how the left thinks, how the Biden administration operates. And they think we are all going to sit still for this grisly policy.
The Biden “team” apparently think we don’t know that it is the Mexican cartels who control the border and have leapt at Biden’s invitation to surge across it in order to re-establish their oh, so profitable enterprise of trafficking in people, especially women and children. Trump had severely interdicted their use and abuse of the victims they traffic. Biden ended Trump’s Operation Talon his first week in office. Now the cartels control who comes, who crosses into the U.S., and where they go, and they are getting fabulously wealthy doing it. The minor children arrive with phones or phone numbers in their pockets. Most of those contact numbers are not family members in the U.S.; they are cartel contacts. The journey north for these women, girls, and young boys is treacherous. The smugglers brag about “rape trees.” Women and girls are routinely gang-raped, their undergarments tossed into trees then so named. This is what Biden’s call for all comers to “surge the border” has set in motion. And, as he reiterated at the not-press conference on Thursday, he thinks he is the nice guy, the moral guy. But he has created a massive humanitarian crisis that is characterized first and foremost by vicious cruelty. This is what the left, the Biden administration has set in motion.
In the meantime, while ignoring the major crisis on the southern border, our DHS, FBI, DOJ, and military have been tasked with purging all federal agencies, especially the military and law enforcement, of any and all conservatives and censoring all conservative voices. The Los Angeles Police Department will no longer hire Christians or conservatives; they are deemed “domestic terrorists.” While Biden gives carte blanche to China, Iran, and Russia to do whatever they will to weaken America, this administration is concerned only with a Stalinist/Maoist form of criminalizing dissent within our borders. The new president is intent upon moving the U.S. toward an oligarchical totalitarianism.
Joe Biden owes his and his family’s wealth to China and Ukraine. That acquired wealth was due to the Biden family’s wholesale corruption that rivals the Clintons’ financial profiteering in scope. Biden is bought and paid for and will always defer to China. He will never cross the Chinese in our interests. He just won’t. He cannot. He owes them; they own him. And do not forget what China has on Hunter Biden, the pedophile drug addict who got rich via Ukraine and China as those two nations bought the leverage they now can use to their benefit. You can be sure they will use that leverage.
Biden’s disastrous plan to orchestrate a humanitarian crisis and invite migrants to surge the southern border will only further prevent the re-employment of all those who lost their jobs due to the unnecessary COVID lockdown. The Trump administration had achieved nearly max employment, especially among minorities, which is why more of them voted to re-elect him in greater numbers than for any other Republican in U.S. history. Now we have Biden, who, by opening the border to anyone and everyone, will insure that those minority workers that had jobs before COVID will have to compete for work with the tens of thousands of illegal migrants now flowing into the country. They are largely untested for COVID, sent on to the cartel smugglers who got them over the border, drugs and all. Predictably, along with the tens of thousands of migrants, fentanyl and meth are again flowing into the U.S. Biden surely knows this but does not care. The “unaccompanied minors” are often mules for the cartels, then trafficked for sex and gang business.
Thus far, Biden as president is dangerously close to being a Castro, Venezuela’s Chávez, and then Maduro. The Democrat party as currently constituted is an enemy of America. If that is not clear to the American people, they are simply as uninformed as the media intends them to be. If they have submitted to the fear-mongering about COVID, they are already submissives to a false narrative. COVID, and all its attendant restrictions on our daily lives, is, like the open border scam, part of our self-appointed ruling elites’ plan to implement their "Great Reset." We had all better stand up and fight back, or this is the end. We will all be rendered citizens of the world, no longer individual humans, but mere chattel to our overseers.
While Biden has vowed to flood the U.S. labor market with more foreign workers to compete against Americans for jobs, he has shied away from questions on whether he will eliminate tariffs on foreign imports that were imposed by Trump. Such elimination of tariffs would be a boon to multinational corporations that offshore their production and jobs overseas only to import their products back into the U.S. market, often with no penalties for doing so.
This comes after Silicon Valley companies intervened in the election on behalf of Joe Biden. In addition to Twitter and Facebook both burying the New York Post’s reporting on the Biden family’s financial ties to Ukraine and China, Google also suppressed conservative news sources.
