The Biden-Harris administration faces a serious issue that’s been largely ignored by mainstream media— the disappearance of tens of thousands of migrant children. This is an alarming problem that contrasts sharply with the intense scrutiny given to similar issues during the Trump administration. Yet, the current situation has escalated to a level that demands immediate attention.
The Shocking Numbers: Over 300,000 Missing Children
A recent Homeland Security Inspector General report revealed that from 2019 to 2023, a staggering 32,000 migrant children failed to appear for their court dates. This number is troubling enough, but the reality may be even worse. According to the report, 291,000 children were never issued a notice to appear in court in the first place. This brings the total to over 300,000 children that the federal government has lost track of—children who are now potentially in grave danger.
The report emphasized that unaccompanied children who fail to show up for court are at a significantly higher risk of being trafficked, exploited, or forced into labor. The system designed to protect these vulnerable children is clearly failing, and the consequences are devastating.
The Role of ICE and HHS: A System in Disarray
The Inspector General’s report also sheds light on the failures of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). ICE, responsible for managing these cases, failed to issue notices to appear for many of these children, effectively cutting off any chance of contact once they were released from HHS custody. This lack of communication and oversight significantly reduces the ability to verify the safety of these children.
Adding to the chaos, ICE did not consistently inform HHS when children failed to appear in immigration court after their release. This lapse in communication is partly due to ICE’s lack of an automated process for sharing information, leading to a situation where even the proper authorities are sometimes unaware that these children are missing.
Kamala Harris Acted Concerned for Migrant Children in 2018
Senator Kamala Harris complained in 2018 about 2,000 children being removed from their parents under the Trump administration.

The thing about it is, the Trump administration, just like the Obama administration, separated illegal migrant children from their illegal migrant parents because a court ordered the government to do so. A judge thought it was not wise to have children in the same cells as their parents because they would not be safe among other adults they did not know who could become violent at any time and be a threat to the children.
If you got arrested for a DUI and your child was in the car with you, do you think they are going to allow your child to be in the cell with you? Americans who go to jail are separated from their children. It’s the decent thing to do, yet Kamala Harris wants migrant children to be put in harm’s way.
Kamala knew this, but she wanted to have a political grandstanding moment. Now, she has to face the fact that the Biden-Harris administration should be brought up on charges for losing so many children. 300,000 children lost by the administration is nothing to sneeze at, and it is beyond amazing that no one in the mainstream media has brought this up.
A Border Crisis Ignored
In 2023 alone, over 113,000 unaccompanied migrant children entered the United States. This surge is a direct result of the Biden administration’s border policies, which have been criticized for being too lenient. Since taking office, President Biden has implemented policies that many argue have effectively opened the border, leading to an overwhelming influx of migrants, including a large number of unaccompanied children.
Despite the scale of this crisis, there has been a notable silence from both Democrats and the mainstream media. This stands in stark contrast to the outrage that erupted during the Trump administration when HHS was unable to confirm the whereabouts of approximately 1,500 children over a three-month period in 2018. It’s important to note that these cases did not involve failures to appear in court but rather instances where HHS could not reach the children or their sponsors via phone or message.
Under Trump, there were 54,000 such cases over three years. However, under Biden, that number has skyrocketed to 85,000 in just two years. This drastic increase highlights a severe and growing problem that cannot be ignored.
The Political Implications
The reluctance of the left to acknowledge this crisis is indicative of a larger issue. A weaker border inevitably leads to more unaccompanied migrant children entering the country, overwhelming an already strained system and allowing more kids to slip through the cracks. Yet, despite these alarming developments, Border Czar Kamala Harris has remained largely silent on the need for any substantial changes to the administration’s border policies. Instead, she has made vague claims about being “tough” on the border, without offering any concrete solutions.
As the situation worsens, it becomes clear that a vote for Harris and the current administration is a vote for policies that continue to put tens of thousands of vulnerable children in even greater danger. The stakes are too high to ignore, and it is crucial that the media and the public hold the administration accountable for this ongoing humanitarian crisis.
Conclusion: A Call for Accountability
The issue of missing migrant children is not just a policy failure; it is a moral failure. The Biden-Harris administration must be held accountable for the children who have been lost under their watch. It is imperative that changes are made to secure the border and ensure that these vulnerable children are protected. The silence from the media and political leaders cannot continue—this crisis demands immediate and decisive action.
