ordeal, including multiple health scares that many thought she would not overcome.</p><p>Thankfully, she is alive, but she is not the same little girl as before. Today, she is seven years old, non-verbal, and can only walk with assistance.</p><p>I met Marcus in D.C. because he has been working with the federal government to help draft legislation that would curb illegal immigrants from obtaining CDLs and strengthen enforcement &#8212; all with the objective of preventing another tragedy like Dalilah&#8217;s.</p><p>The full interview was over an hour long. Of course, with a documentary, you only see a small percentage of it. However, I wanted to write this to express to the world what I took away from this experience.</p><p>It is not often that you find people who are willing to sacrifice for a greater cause. Marcus isn&#8217;t trying to chase fame or run for office; he&#8217;s just trying to do the right thing.</p><p>When I asked him what it was like being at the State of the Union and having the President acknowledge their situation, he explained that he sees these moments as part of the process and not as moments of excitement.</p><p>This response I can completely understand. He would rather have a happy and healthy daughter than anything else in the world. His family was forced into this position by systemic failures, which the documentary will explain.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!5ITW!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa7630ac3-f5fa-4088-8636-b791f41db2d9_612x612.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!5ITW!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa7630ac3-f5fa-4088-8636-b791f41db2d9_612x612.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!5ITW!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa7630ac3-f5fa-4088-8636-b791f41db2d9_612x612.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!5ITW!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa7630ac3-f5fa-4088-8636-b791f41db2d9_612x612.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!5ITW!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa7630ac3-f5fa-4088-8636-b791f41db2d9_612x612.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!5ITW!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa7630ac3-f5fa-4088-8636-b791f41db2d9_612x612.png" width="612" height="612" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/a7630ac3-f5fa-4088-8636-b791f41db2d9_612x612.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:612,&quot;width&quot;:612,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:40958,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://www.adambcoleman.com/i/193570935?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa7630ac3-f5fa-4088-8636-b791f41db2d9_612x612.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!5ITW!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa7630ac3-f5fa-4088-8636-b791f41db2d9_612x612.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!5ITW!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa7630ac3-f5fa-4088-8636-b791f41db2d9_612x612.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!5ITW!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa7630ac3-f5fa-4088-8636-b791f41db2d9_612x612.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!5ITW!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa7630ac3-f5fa-4088-8636-b791f41db2d9_612x612.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>As Marcus put it in the interview, he&#8217;s doing the job that politicians should be doing.

I&#8217;ve spent years digging into the messes our society tries to sweep under the rug, and I&#8217;ve got a new project that&#8217;s been burning in me for a while: <strong>&#8220;The Illegal Highways.&#8221; </strong></p><p>This documentary isn&#8217;t about flashy headlines or political games&#8212;it&#8217;s about the real, gut-wrenching stories of victims and the families left devastated by illegal labor in the trucking industry. These are the people who&#8217;ve paid the ultimate price for an industry riddled with greed, human trafficking, and corners cut at every turn.</p><p>Let me lay it out for you straight from the synopsis:</p><h4>&#8220;On America&#8217;s highways, 80,000-pound trucks are weapons in the wrong hands.</h4><h4>With an estimated 200,000 illegal commercial drivers on the road&#8212;many operating under questionable or improperly issued CDLs&#8212;hundreds of families are torn apart every year in catastrophic crashes. These unqualified drivers are often hired by a shadow network of chameleon carriers: fly-by-night companies that change names, DOT numbers, and corporate identities overnight to evade FMCSA safety regulations and out-of-service orders. The broader industry profits handsomely&#8212;cheap illegal labor keeps freight costs down and broker margins high&#8212;while regulators struggle to keep up.</h4><h4>The Illegal Highways, directed by New York Post contributor Adam B. Coleman, follows the survivors and the grieving: the mother whose son was killed on his way home from work, the widow raising children alone, the father who will never walk his daughter down the aisle. Through intimate, unfiltered interviews in their living rooms and at the sites of the tragedies&#8212;families like Deann Miller, whose husband Scott was killed by a 16-time-deported illegal driver hauling unsecured metal piping&#8212;the film reveals the human cost of a system that treats American lives as collateral damage.</h4><h4>Coleman also sits down with industry experts like trucking veteran Justin Martin and Shannon Everett, founder of American Truckers United, who expose how chameleon carriers (three times more likely to cause severe crashes than legitimate new operators) and lax enforcement enable the deadly cycle.</h4><h4>With no narration and no agenda beyond the truth, this raw, urgent documentary gives these families the microphone the mainstream media refuses to hand them.<br>This isn&#8217;t just a story about bad drivers. It&#8217;s a story about a broken industry that profits from death&#8212;and the people left to pick up the pieces.&#8221;</h4><p>This hits me hard because I&#8217;ve seen too many stories like this get buried&#8212;real families shattered, kids growing up without parents, all because some folks prioritize cheap labor over human lives. </p><p>I&#8217;ve written about broken systems and the pain they cause, from absent fathers to cultural blind spots, and this is no different. It&#8217;s about honoring the victims, amplifying their voices, and calling out the failures that let this deadly cycle continue.</p><p>No spin, no excuses&#8212;just the unfiltered truth from those who&#8217;ve lived through the nightmare.</p><p>To bring this to life, I&#8217;m running a crowdfunding campaign on GiveSendGo. Every bit helps&#8212;whether it&#8217;s a donation to fund the interviews and production, a share to spread the word, or a prayer for the families involved. </p><p>If this moves you, jump over to the campaign: <a href="https://www.givesendgo.com/theillegalhighways">https://www.givesendgo.com/theillegalhighways</a>. Please share this campaign with your friends, family, and on your social media pages to spread the word.</p><p>Let&#8217;s give these stories the attention they deserve and push for real change.

Because more people are finally speaking up, refusing to stay silent. The film digs into the explosion of gender dysphoria cases among teens, hitting girls especially hard, and spotlights stories like surgeon Eithan Haim&#8217;s fight after blowing the whistle at Texas Children&#8217;s Hospital. It connects these personal scars to show the bigger pattern of neglect and deception.</p><p>A few highlights:</p><ul><li><p>Surgeries and hormones that turn minors into lifelong patients, all while ignoring any real underlying problems.
