New reporting has renewed attention on the federal government's handling of migrant children and border security during the Biden administration. According to reporting cited from The Center Square, more than 14 million illegal entries were reported nationwide during the administration, including approximately 2 million "gotaways"—individuals who allegedly crossed the border without being apprehended. The discussion also references federal Inspector General audits and findings from a Florida grand jury, which raised concerns about some migrant children being released to individuals later identified as alleged gang members, human traffickers, non-family members, or to unverifiable addresses. Additionally, the U.S. Department of Justice has reported that more than 300,000 migrant children remain unaccounted for within the immigration system. The issue continues to fuel debate over border security, immigration enforcement, government oversight, child safety, and the fiscal impact of immigration policies on taxpayers and federal agencies. #BorderSecurity #Immigration #DOJ #MigrantChildren #BorderCrisis #IllegalImmigration #Taxpayer #Politics #GovernmentAccountability #BreakingNews #HomelandSecurity #FederalGovernment #BorderPolicy #News #CenterSquare
