π¨ In this powerful episode of Grey Matter, host Leighton Grey welcomes Maureen Steele, co-founder of American Made Foundation and fearless advocate for family rights, to expose the dark reality of what she calls "state-sanctioned kidnapping."
Β
Steele reveals shocking statistics about Child Protective Services, including that out of 8,000 children currently in CPS custody in Massachusetts, only 48 were legally taken with legitimate cause. She explains how family courts operate as sealed administrative courts where constitutional rights are suspended, due process is ignored, and children are monetized for profit in an $80 billion industry.
Β
Through the heartbreaking story of the Rivera family - whose five children were seized at gunpoint after they refused a vitamin K shot at a routine doctor's visit - Steele illustrates how the system criminalizes good parents while enriching those who participate in this corrupt enterprise.
Β
You'll learn about:
β How family courts operate without constitutional protections or public oversight
β The financial incentives driving child removal ($10,000 bonus for each adoption)
β The disturbing practice of medicating 85% of foster children with psychotropic drugs
β American Made Foundation's strategy to "cut the head off the snake" through federal lawsuits
β How citizen advocacy can challenge and reform this broken system
Β
Steele's journey from stay-at-home mom to national advocate began during the 2020 lockdowns, demonstrating how ordinary citizens can rise to extraordinary challenges when confronted with injustice.
Β
This episode is essential listening for parents, legal professionals, and anyone concerned about government overreach and the protection of family rights in America.
