Julio Rosas: The Destruction of Law and Order in America—From the Crime Crisis in Cities to Migrant Chaos at the Border

<p>“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.”</p><p>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.</p><p>“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.</p><p>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.</p><p>“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.</p><p>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.</p><p>“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.</p>
