The Trump administration is pushing back against reports that a government agency "lost" nearly 1,500 unaccompanied minors who attempted to cross the border into the United States. An official at the Department of Health and Human Services who oversees programs that place unaccompanied minors with families told a Senate committee last month that a department office "was unable to determine with certainty the whereabouts of 1,475 unaccompanied alien children."
Thousands waited in long lines and terrible weather to see President Donald Trump take the stage at a campaign rally in Nashville, TN . President Trump was in Nashville on behalf of Rep. Marsha Blackburn's 2018 U.S. Senate bid.
The White House on Tuesday wrongly blamed Democrats for forcing Mr. Trump's administration to separate children from parents. Liberal activists and others, including some from media outlets, tried to highlight the issue by tweeting photos of young people in steel cages that actually were taken during the Obama administration.
It has lit up social media and made the debate over a new Trump policy of "zero tolerance" at the border even more hysterical than it would be otherwise. The 1,475 factoid makes it sound as though the Trump administration had these children in its custody and then one day couldn't find them.
There are essentially three policy issues that have become conflated: unaccompanied minors at the border, separating children from their parents at the border and families seeking asylum. We break down what those issues are and what it all means.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday seized on an error by liberal activists who tweeted photos of young-looking immigrants at the U.S.-Mexico border in steel cages and blamed the current administration for separating immigrant children from their parents.

Over 1,500 immigrant children who have entered the United States unaccompanied are not "lost," as Senate testimony by an administration official in April suggested, a U.S. Health and Human Services official said on Monday, as outrage over their treatment triggered a social media storm. Deputy HHS Secretary Eric Hargan issued a statement and fact sheet on Monday night saying the department's Office of Refugee Resettlement attempted to follow up on the 2016 release of unaccompanied children by contacting their families, a step he said was not required of the department.
