Things have gone from bad to worse for President Joe Biden.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and conservative government watchdog Judicial Watch condemned Biden today after documents from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) revealed alleged physical and sexual abuse of unaccompanied migrant children.
Fox Newsย reportsย on documents from HHS' Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) recording the allegations, including 33 claims of sex abuse, between January and February of this year.
โThese documents show that not only are there shocking reports of sexual abuse occurring in shelters for unaccompanied children, but that there is violence among the UACs themselves,โ Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a statement to Fox News.
โIt is no surprise that Biden administration's enabling of human trafficking has resulted in violence and the abuse of children,โ Fitton continued.

The sexual abuse was widespread across the country in shelters housing migrant children who crossed the border alone, and illustrates a dark reality facing migrant children as the border crisis rages on.
HHS withheld details on the identities of the alleged perpetrators and victims in the reports and did not provide Judicial Watch with incident reports on the abuse.
Accusations of child abuse have persisted for months. In April, Gov. Abbott called on the White House to close a San Antonio shelter implicated in the growing scandal.
โThe Biden administration is now presiding over the abuse of children,โ Abbott said at the time, before adding, โThe administration failed to plan for the influx of children that they invited to come. Now they face allegations of despicable child abuse and neglect.โ
