#shorts On 5/12/2023, Fox News correspondent Jacqui Heinrich asked Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “Can you tell us how many migrant children are presently in U.S. custody?”

KJP: I — I would refer you to the HHS. I — I don’t have — don’t have those numbers in front — in front of me.

Reporter: Their website has not reported any data on this since January, and they’re typically reported once a month … I just want to know why that data is not there and if it’s being kept somewhere else, if it’ll be released to us.

KJP: … as the data, that is something that comes from HHS, so I would have to refer you to them.

Reporter: Will you — will the administration be working to track that down? Because especially after the New York Times report that HHS lost contact with 85,000 children over the course of the last two years and lost immediate contact with a third of migrant children, that data not being there is
alarming.

KJP: I expect HHS to provide that data. That is something that they would have for you — to share with you. I just don’t have a da- — that data right at this time.

On 5/12/2023, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said mass releases of illegals aren’t happening. Migrants are pouring over the US border after Title 42 expired on Friday at midnight. Title 42, a Trump-era policy that forced migrants seeking asylum to remain in Mexico while their immigration case made it through the system, expired. According to some estimates, there are more than 1 million ‘gotaways’ in the US. Karine Jean-Pierre says it’s not happening. US District Judge from the Northern District of Florida T. Kent Wetherell II, a Trump appointee on Thursday evening temporarily blocked the Biden Regime from releasing illegals into the US without notices to appear in court.
