The GOP is trying to sound the alarm and warn Americans of an upcoming attack that is pretty much guaranteed. The GOP is referring to how terrorists have previously used our southern border as an entry point and how they will likely use the border crisis to their advantage this time.
“A top House Republican is warning of an “urgent” terrorist threat to the United States after the Taliban’s release of thousands of prisoners from Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan, including the ISIS-K suicide bomber that killed 13 U.S. service members, suggesting that those released prisoners could attempt to enter the country through the “porous southern border,” and demanding answers from the Biden administration on its plans to quell that threat.
Ranking Member of the House Subcommittee on Immigration and Citizenship Rep. Tom McClintock, R-Calif., wrote a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Thursday, warning that released prisoners could attempt entry to the U.S. through Mexico with the purpose of committing terrorist attacks on the homeland.
“I write with grave concern over the security risks posed by the release of 7,000 terrorists, including members of the Taliban, ISIS-K, and Al-Qaeda from Bagram Air Base combined with the porous southern border,” McClintock wrote. “Shortly after the president ordered the unconditional surrender of Bagram Air Base to the Taliban, Taliban forces took control and released the terrorists that had been in U.S. custody. Days later, 13 U.S. service members were murdered by a suicide bomber at Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul.”
Citing Fox News reporting, McClintock wrote that Biden administration officials “have confirmed that the suicide bomber ‘was a prisoner released from Bagram Air Base on August 15 after the Taliban seized control of the facility.’”
Human trafficking, drug trafficking, and who knows what other criminal activities are already happening at our border, and the Biden Admin has been twiddling their thumbs, saying they have no idea how to fix the border. So it seems unlikely that the Biden Admin is going to suddenly step up and start protecting Americans, when they are doing nothing about the current threats that are entering our country now.
