On Monday, Fox Business reported that Mexican cartels are paying American teenagers $1,000 for every illegal immigrant they drive from the border to Houston.
Host Maria Bartiromo stated as she spoke to GOP Congressman Buddy Carter of Georgia: Let me turn to the border, because Congressman, I know you’ve been there. We were there three times in the last two years and we’ve watched the situation worsen quite significantly. Now we are expecting another massive, organized caravan of migrants there. They’re making their way to the southern border right now, surging past Mexican forces trying to stop it over the weekend, the organizers calling out the Biden administration, saying that money is not going to solve the problem. It’s unclear what they want.
“I have an exclusive story this morning, that I’ve learned that cartels are paying teenagers, 15, 16-year-old kids $1,000 for every migrant that they can drive to Houston,” she claimed. “So you’ve got these teenagers with cars back and forth from the border to Houston all day long. And we have one situation where there was a teenager apprehended this weekend and his car went over a ditch —tipped over, here’s a shot of it — in this truck he had 13 illegals jammed in the back seat. He was going to make $13,000 until he was apprehended by the sheriff’s office. We’re going to talk with the sheriff of Jackson County coming up, but I mean, look, you’re talking about these Mexican cartels with these organized plan to now entrap teenagers through Tik Tok.”
