(Texas Scorecard) – Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick publicly blasted Vice President Kamala Harris for losing track of thousands of unaccompanied illegal alien children.
“We have about 300,000 children who have come here illegally, and Kamala Harris does not know where they are,” Patrick said in an interview with Fox News.
The lieutenant governor asserted that many of these children have been exploited by the sex slave trade industry and are likely being forced to have sexual intercourse multiple times per day.
“How can you possibly allow hundreds of thousands of children to cross the border and lose track of them?” Patrick asked.
He then pinned the responsibility of the country’s deep-rooted and pervasive child sex slave trade on Harris and President Joe Biden, saying that what children are being forced to endure makes him sick.
Patrick further said that “Kamala Harris doesn’t care a damn about these children” despite her claims to the contrary.
According to the lieutenant governor, under former President Trump, this never would have happened.
Last month, a detailed report by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services explained that the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is unable to track unaccompanied minors once they are released from custody due to the fact that they have not been issued notices to appear in court.
Immigration court hearings are oftentimes the only opportunity to ensure that a child is safe from harm and human trafficking, according to the report.
As of May of this year, the number of illegal alien children that have not been issued notices to appear in court by ICE—and therefore their whereabouts are virtually unknown—exceeds 290,000.
