Border Crisis: Illegal Immigrants Pour Across CA Border, Including Afghani On Terror Watch List

Back in December, we wrote about how DHS is warned border patrol agents to watch for IEDs and terrorists at the border. The White House and Democrats insist on tying border funding to Ukraine funding, insist the border is more secure than ever before and Biden 'stopped the flow' (when they're not blaming Republicans for the border crisis). So Bill Melugin was at the border in Jacumba, CA and this is what he saw: In the Jacumba, CA area tonight - an hour east of San Diego, where this group of illegal immigrants from around the world is camped out off I-8 w/ no Border Patrol in sight. People from China, Turkey, Ecuador etc planning to go all over US. This group is from Turkey, wants to go New Jersey & Florida to work & for family reasons. Group from China, appears to want to go to New York. Another group from China - using translator app, she tells me she wants to go to Los Angeles.

This group is from Ecuador, one man tells me he wants to go to Chicago. Another group from China. My Spanish here is almost useless. Time to start learning the basics of Mandarin! Bill Melugin is out where Border Patrol recently nabbed Arif Tanhah, a terror watchlisted individual from Afghanistan who’s categorized as a “known associate” of a terror org. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GGs6_cpWoAAho3X?format=jpg&name=large -- Afghan man on Terror Watchlist apprehended by U.S. border patrol after he entered the United States illegally via California. Arif Tanhah, 30 was found to be a “positive match” on the terror watchlist and a “known associate” of an officially designated terrorist organization. A terrorist. On a watchlist. Thank goodness they arrested him. How many more haven't been caught?
