Mexico: A Hellhole for the Missing

Mexico has become a silent graveyard for many men, women, and children; vanishing without a trace. Among the most heartbreaking stories are those of children abducted while waiting for the bus, snatched from their everyday lives into a void of terror.

This tragedy unfolds daily, yet the world remains largely silent. Why has the press ignored this horror? I’ve written before about the hundreds of thousands of Christians slaughtered globally for their faith—a story similarly buried despite the age of the internet. If the President sneezes, it’s plastered across social media within minutes. So how does this level of suffering escape notice? Where are we as a country, as a human race? How did we get here? I don’t have all the answers, but I do know this; I’m here to advocate for the millions of innocent people murdered over the past decade.

Let’s turn our focus to Mexico. Just outside a quiet village lies a sprawling ranch where volunteers, ordinary people searching for their lost loved ones, made a chilling discovery. Digging in the earth, they uncovered three underground ovens reeking of burnt flesh. Nearby were piles of body parts, clothing, and shoes, eerily reminiscent of the Holocaust Museum’s displays of victims’ belongings.

This was no random dump site; it was a systematic death factory, designed to erase its victims and remain hidden. The sick culprits? Mexico’s drug cartels, whose hands are stained with an endless river of blood. Known for fueling global chaos through their drug empire, these cartels have now revealed a new depth of depravity. This isn’t just about trafficking narcotics - it’s about mass extermination.

I stumbled upon this horrific story while researching a piece on President Donald Trump’s decision to designate the Mexican drug cartels as terrorist organizations. I believe this very horror may have been on his mind when he made that call. The facts that I am sharing are verifiable through multiple sources.

Cartels prey on the vulnerable, luring the desperately poor with false promises of jobs and money. These victims, living far below the poverty line, are abducted, exploited, and discarded. A few survivors have escaped, but they can’t speak out as doing so would mean torture and death for them and their families. Fear silences everyone; the victims, the press, and even the Mexican government. The cartels’ agents are trained to torture and kill, and dissenters within their ranks face the same fate; buried in mass graves, lost forever. Approximately 150,000 people vanish in Mexico each year, never to be found.

Law enforcement is a myth; The cartels either own the police or hold them in check with threats against their families. It is a systematic hell. So how was this mass grave uncovered? Volunteers stumbled upon it by chance, brave souls risking their lives because no one else would. Why weren’t law enforcement or the military involved? Because they’re terrified.

Some believe the Mexican government knew about the site and tipped off the volunteers but refused to act. For those living in Mexico, this is their daily life. Living in constant danger, with the ever-present threat of ending up in a pit such as this one. Families of the missing are left in limbo, with no graves to mourn and with no closure.

This ranch is not an isolated case. Since the discovery, five more underground facilities have been found, each with crematoriums marked by cartel symbols, most notably the statue of Santa Muerte, a dark figure cloaked in black or red, a chilling emblem of death.

Hundreds of thousands remain missing, suggesting dozens more sites like this exist. Mexicans know this nightmare all too well, but there is no one to call, no one to help. Those who could intervene are likely dead. Survivors compare it to the atrocities of Nazi Germany or Imperial Japan n World War II.

Here is a haunting question: How did the U.S. government not know? The CIA, the FBI, where were they? Let’s step back. Under the Biden-Harris administration, U.S. intelligence and security agencies - the FBI, CIA, Secret Service, and the Department of Homeland Security - lost their edge. Policies like DEI and "woke" initiatives prioritized checklists over competence, diluting the quality of these once-proud institutions. The Trump assassination attempts exposed this dysfunction very clearly. Just look at the Secret Service’s failures in Butler, Pennsylvania, or the Homeland Security director’s resignation when pressed for accountability. Thousands of U.S. citizens have vanished near the border, victims of these same cartels. The Biden administration had to know something, yet they did nothing. Was it incompetence or complicity?

There is hope, though. President Trump’s administration, just two months in as of March 19, 2025, needs time to reverse this tide. His designation of the cartels as terrorist organizations signals intent, but the obstacles are immense as years of neglect cannot be undone overnight.

Still, I wonder; At what point does a Democrat say “America first” instead of “party first”? The cost of silence has become an unthinkable tragedy.

The question isn’t just how guilty Biden and his allies are; it’s how we, as a nation, move forward to stop this modern holocaust and other bloody slaughters occurring around the world.
