State-Sanctioned KIDNAPPING Exists-Believe It Or Not!
Manage episode 470900417 series 3635290
There are daily headlines about child trafficking - but these seem to refer to illegal aliens or foreign countries - but what they hide is American state-sanctioned kidnapping that's been going on for years and is still flourishing! Today's guest, Maureen Steele, will reveal the truth behind this 'kidnapping industry'.
Child Protective Services (CPS) and its various counterparts—such as the Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF), the Department of Family Services (DFS), the Department of Children and Families (DCF), and other similarly named agencies—operate under the guise of protecting children. In reality, these agencies have become an industry unto themselves, profiting off the removal of children and the destruction of families. Every child taken from their home represents a payday for the state, foster care agencies, court-mandated service providers, and an entire network of professionals whose financial survival depends on keeping the system running.
Most people don’t realize that removing children from their homes is not just an act of state intervention—it’s a multi-billion-dollar industry. Under the Adoption and Safe Families Act of 1997, states receive federal Title IV-E funding for every child placed in foster care. The more children removed, the more money the state gets. States even receive bonus payments for finalized adoptions, creating an incentive to permanently sever parental rights rather than reunite families.
Ms. Steele is a seasoned paralegal, writer, and key force behind American Made Foundation, an organization that connects influential leaders and grassroots movements to drive real change. Passionate about exposing corruption, defending families, and preserving freedom, Maureen has played a pivotal role in initiatives that challenge the status quo and inspire action.
