Human smugglers advertised 'coyote' services on Facebook as Trump ads remained banned: report
NBC News highlights Spanish-language ads promising 'travel to Mexico to the United States'

Early data shows March border crossings at 15-year high
So-called "coyotes" attempting to sneak migrants across the southern border illegally seem to have a better chance of sticking around Facebook than former President Donald Trump.

Facebook permanently banned the 45th president from their platform following the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, but the social media giant reportedly allowed human smugglers to openly advertise on their platform until NBC News reporters brought it to the tech company's attention,

"Human smugglers are openly advertising their services on Facebook, falsely telling Central Americans interested in crossing illegally into the United States that they can promise a ‘100[%] safe journey," NBC News reported on Monday.


Citing "Department of Homeland Security officials, immigration experts and lawyers," NBC reported the practice has become increasingly popular since President Biden took office.

FACEBOOK REMOVES VIDEO OF TRUMP INTERVIEW WITH DAUGHTER-IN-LAW LARA TRUMP

A typical Spanish-language Facebook post located by NBC read: "Travel to Mexico to the United States. Costs $8,000. 100[%] safe. Cross through Matamoros. You walk one hour, after in automobile until you arrive to your relative."

The report noted, "An apparent smuggler posted a picture of a family with luggage, wearing masks and sitting together on what appears to be a plane," alongside a message charging $4,500 for the service.

"A spokesperson said that Facebook policy prohibits human exploitation and trafficking and that the company removes such content when it is identified or flagged by users," NBC reported, adding that Facebook had removed all of the posts NBC News spotlighted.

HUMAN SMUGGLERS USING SOCIAL MEDIA TO TRANSPORT MIGRANTS TO US

Facebook's community standards advise users not to post "content that offers or assists in smuggling of humans." However, while the company apparently only removed the coyotes' posts once notified, it swiftly pulled a video last week of Trump sitting down for an interview with his daughter-in-law Lara Trump.


Facebook said any content "in the voice of Donald Trump" would be scrubbed from the social media platform.

A spokesperson did not immediately respond when asked by Fox News whether human smugglers are more likely to be allowed on the platform than the former president.

Facebook moved to block Trump "indefinitely" after the Capitol riot, with CEO Mark Zuckerberg saying that they "believe the risks of allowing the President to continue to use our service during this period are simply too great."

Zuckerberg told lawmakers last month that the State Department has used Facebook to share factual information with users. He noted advertising smuggling services on the platform is against Facebook's policies, adding Facebook is "taking a lot of steps to stop it."

"Let me just say that I think that the situation at the border is really serious," he said, "and we're taking it very seriously."

I'm not surprised at all
Most people don't realize how bad
things are.
Can't remember the exact number.
I saw a while back that it was like
4 out of 5 females coming here from
southern countries are raped at
some point during their journey here.
Bunches of the border jumpers are
left dead in remote regions from
injuries or illness or are just plain old
fashioned murdered.

Border Ranchers find them dead laying around out there. One of them told Foxnews Laura Logan that, and that the body's of the women had been striped naked. We are not dealing with good people like the left says we are.
We are dealing with savages.

The last south Texas ranch I hunted
had a designated RV camp where you
parked that had an 8 foot fence topped
with barbed wire that you pulled in
for the night, and everybody got locked
in for the night to keep from getting
robbed or killed during the wee hours.
That, and the border jumpers would break
in your camper and steal all your food
and clean clothes and pretty much
trash everything out of meanness.
An acquaintance had a lease in the
same region, and they left a pile of
canned goods and bottled water on
one of the picnic tables in their camp
as a sort of bribe, but after a while
they would still break the glass out
of the camper windows, and leave
the toilet full. It's not enjoyable at all
if you have to carry a pistol in hand
everywhere and have someone back
you up just to get in your blind for the
morning. It'd be like cops making an
entry to a crack house. You might
find a couple of border jumpers asleep
in your camper or your blind

Ranger, does the game even come around with all those freaks wondering around?

[Ranger99]

Oh yeah.
You can still hunt and kill deer
and javelina and turkeys, etc.
but having to need eyes in the
back of your head, and worrying
about someone jumping you for
your guns and wallet and clothes
and such, or stealing your truck
etc. kinda takes the joy away from
being out and about in God's
outdoors and pretty much kills
the whole hunting experience 
There's some that think it's neat
to be able to be armed and have
the ability to pop a shot or five
at a group of border jumpers
skulking across the other side of
the canyon they're hunting, but
I'd as soon not see any humans
or be forced to interact with any
border jumpers that might be
just meek little peons, or might
well be a bunch of smugglers
itching to draw blood.
