For years, Americans were told the border was secure, the system was working, and concerns about illegal immigration were overblown. We were told to look the other way when illegal aliens took our jobs, used up local resources, filled hospitals, were given taxpayer-funded handouts, and committed crimes.

During the Biden reign of terror, hundreds of thousands of migrant children were entering the country with little oversight. According to a report from Just the News, we find out that more than 475,000 unaccompanied migrant children entered the United States during the Biden administration, and nearly 300,000 remain unaccounted for.

The Trump administration says it has located about 146,000 of those children, but a staggering number are still missing from the government’s radar.

Under the Biden administration, the ORR (Office of Refugee Resettlement) often seemed more focused on moving unaccompanied alien children through the system than actually ensuring they were going somewhere safe.

Sponsors were frequently inadequately vetted, background checks were skipped or incomplete, and some children ended up being released to alleged gang members, suspected human traffickers, unrelated adults, or even addresses that weren’t actual residences.

Federal officials say they’ve identified more than 15,500 “super-sponsor” cases – situations where a single individual was approved to take custody of more than three unrelated unaccompanied alien children. According to Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, some of those cases involve allegations of child sexual abuse and other crimes that he described as “the stuff of nightmares.”

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said investigators were stunned by what they uncovered after reviewing the Biden administration’s handling of migrant children. He said, “It was true neglect, at best, and criminal, at worst.”

The administration was so focused on moving children out of government custody that basic safeguards were tossed aside, creating opportunities for traffickers, abusers, and other bad actors to exploit the system. Did the Biden folks and the Democratic Party care about any of it? Obviously not.

The concerns extend beyond children who disappeared from government tracking. Federal officials in the Trump administration say they inherited a backlog of more than 65,000 reports and tips involving unaccompanied migrant children, including more than 7,300 human trafficking allegations that were never fully investigated. Did the Biden folks and the Democratic Party care about any of it? Obviously not.
