Did U.S. officials lose track of 6,000 children at the border? (Anita Kumar)

Last month, when federal officials revealed that they had lost track of nearly 1,500 unaccompanied minors who had arrived on the southern border  alone without their parents, the admission caused a national outcry. On Monday, when ProPublica reporter Ginger Thompson released audio she  obtained of 10 Central American children separated from their parents by immigration authorities at the border, that outcry turned into an uproar. Yet, according to an exclusive report from Anita Kumar, White House correspondent for the news agency McClatchyDC, the actual number of children that the US Office of Refugee Resettlement has lost is actually much greater. On this week’s TrumpWatch, Anita expands on the disturbing findings in her article “US officials likely lost track of nearly 6,000 unaccompanied migrant kids.”
