President Joe Biden's Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is losing track of nearly two in ten border crossers released into the United States, a report from federal investigators suggests. DHS Inspector General (IG) Joseph Cuffari issued his office's audit of the agency's massive Catch and Release network, through which officials are supposed to keep contact with the tens of thousands of border crossers they release into American communities every month. According to the IG report, from March 2021 through August 2022, Biden's DHS lost track of more than 177,000 border crossers released into the U.S. interior of the roughly 981,000 that were reviewed for the audit.
