A recent report by the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) Inspector General has revealed that the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has lost track of nearly 300,000 unaccompanied migrant children. These children, who crossed the border illegally, are unaccounted for under the Biden-Harris administration. The report highlights that ICE cannot assure the safety of these children from trafficking, exploitation, or forced labor. Additionally, over 32,000 of these children missed their court dates. The findings have sparked criticism of Vice President Kamala Harris, who has been designated as the 'Border Czar' responsible for overseeing border security. The DHS report, released during the Democratic National Convention (DNC), underscores the challenges and failures in managing the influx of unaccompanied minors, raising concerns about the potential humanitarian crisis.
