Taliban-released terrorists could be sneaking through the US southern border

There is no crossing the southern border................../S

Over the past week, many in the United States have expressed shock and outrage over the Biden administration's handling of the Taliban's swift takeover of Afghanistan. The world has seen how unprepared our commander in chief truly is as American lives hang in balance at Kabul's airport.

Yet the worst may be still to come for this unfolding nightmare.
The Taliban have released thousands of prisoners on their march through Afghanistan, many of whom are terrorists. These dangerous people are highly motivated to strike back at the U.S. and the West because we helped to overturn their strongholds in the Middle East over the past two decades.
While President Joe Biden has said there would never be a perfect time to withdraw from Afghanistan, this might be the worst time as these terrorists have a soft underbelly to sneak into the U.S. at our southern border. We know that an alarming number of dangerous criminals, gang members, and some terrorists have already crossed into our country this year, and soon we may have these newly released terrorists arriving in the U.S. cities of their choosing.
Moreover, the Afghanistan fallout comes at the same time that former Border Patrol Chief Rodney Scott announced that immigration "is just a cover for massive amounts of smuggling going across the southwest border — to include [known or suspected terrorists] at a level we have never seen before. That's a real threat."
Scott's words should chill the bones of all Americans. There are tens of thousands of migrant "gotaways" crossing the southern border every month, and no one knows anything about their intentions or identities. How many terrorists will cross the border into U.S. cities?
The Biden administration has been warned about the consequences of its reckless border and immigration policies by everyone from members of Congress and the intelligence community to our state governors and law enforcement agencies. It doesn't care. Biden's team has refused even to acknowledge the crisis at the border. It has fought all efforts from states, especially Arizona, to hold the administration accountable to the rule of law and to the Constitution.
Biden's own Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas recently admitted to Border Patrol agents that "if our borders are the first line of defense, we're going to lose, and this is unsustainable." The Biden administration knows what it is doing to this nation.
The Biden administration's dereliction of duty and complete disregard for the rule of law has brought record-breaking numbers of undocumented migrants from around the world to our border. The summer months have historically been a time where illegal immigration has subsided — but not this year. It's the exact opposite. Illegal immigration has skyrocketed. Illicit drugs have poured into countless communities. Criminals, terrorists, and gang members have been apprehended at our southern border.
For all the criticism Biden has received over his handling of the debacle in Afghanistan, he deserves even more for what he has done, and continues to do, to our southern border and to the security of our communities.
That's why I have fought since the beginning of the Biden administration against his unlawful border and immigration policies. I am not willing to stand aside as he and his radical allies trash our Constitution and compromise the present and future security of our nation. My office has been actively involved with litigation against the administration, and we will continue to fight them on behalf of innocent Arizonans, and Americans, who rely on our government to protect their families and communities.
The Biden administration alone is responsible for its radical, open-borders policies that are so dangerous for our children and grandchildren. It breaks my heart that anyone in that position of authority would intentionally leave our borders open for terrorists, gang members, and hardened criminals to enter our nation. I pray that the people will not suffer the full consequences of our leaders' unconscionable actions.
Mark Brnovich is the attorney general of Arizona.

Could be or are.....................we shall see.
Trump is off topic both directly and through veiled references and I reserve the right to delete any comments I deem to be of no value to the conversation.
History is off topic ... focus!
Better not mention paranoia either, or the longest unguarded border in the world (with Canada).
With the current migrant surges at our Southern borders, I'd say it would be more than likely. As I have said before, I live right on the AZ/Mexico border and it is certainly a big concern of the Border Patrol field agents that are my neighbors that I talk to on a regular basis. The border in SE Arizona is very porous and a large percentage of illegals do get past the Border Patrol.
OTOH-- I wonder what the likelihood of that happening might be?
Of course terrorism has existed for a long time. And while there have been many terror attacks in the U.S. (many of the smaller ones we don't even hear about, and of the ones we do hear about-- how many do we remember?).
And of all of those-- how many of the terrorists actually entered via the Mexican border-- and could've been prevented by a better border wall?
I am more concerned about the illegals coming across the border that are Covid 19 carriers. I read that the McAllen, TX detention center has a 14% infection rate for illegals. The Delta variant surge in the US corresponds directly with surge of illegals across our southern border.
The Lambda variant has just been detected in California. What are the chances it made it's way into the US across our southern border as well?
Don't get me wrong; terrorists crossing into the US are a real concern; but unless they are carrying a dirty nuclear bomb they will only have isolated affects (not that it will be any consolation to those that get caught in their path). Covid right now is a far more pressing concern.
Either way the southern border needs to be closed for good.
Actually I'mnot too worried about terrorists entering via the Southern border. (In any event if they were smart they use the Canadian border as is much less heavily patrolled)>
And when it comes to Covid, I'd be more worried about people already hear-- non-immigrants-- who refuse to get vaccinated, wear masks, or social distance.
Try again. The BP has been pulled off the southern border to process the massive influx of illegals that turn themselves in. That is before they started asking agents to serve in Afghanistan.The southern border is more porous than ever.
Canada actually enforces their immigration laws. The southern border is far, far, easier to cross as South & Central American and Mexico are all transition for migrants. Mexico is once again a revolving door for illegals entering the US.
14% infection rate and that is just from the ones they catch- and they don't catch the majority of them. The illegals don't give a shit about transmitting Covid to anyone else; just like they don't give a shit about our laws. So of course the left is more worried about US citizens than illegals.
no telling what is coming in
Feral cats and skunks are entering
In droves...
Yes.
And yet-- that won't stop people on social media sites telling us that they know who-- or what-- is coming in via that border!
could
/ko͝od,kəd/
verb
past of can1.
used to indicate possibility.
[removed no value]
So the definition of the word "could" has value, but legitimate examples of the word "could" have no value?
Just Jim, your bias is showing....
My seed, my rules. Don't like it? Please move on.
You don't get to make up your own rules, NT has the rules that you must follow.
You have few friends here that could use that little fact.
Since when is the definition of a word "liberal"?
It means that the Taliban COULD BE sneaking down your chimney at night to rifle through your underwear drawer.
He has more friends than you do here.
Yeah. 2 has always been more than 16 ................/S
And you aren't even one of them on his home page.
No worries, they still have the fence they put up around the capital building, ready to go, in case of another "insurrection."
No worries, they still have the fence they put up around the capital building, ready to go, in case of another "insurrection."
Well, there could still be a fence around the capitol!
And perhaps we shall see if its still there!
But of course everyone should be entitled to their own opinion!
And while some people are saying that while everyone should be entitled to their own opinion but not entitled to their own facts-- there could be some who could disagree... and in fact some who actually would!
Or not!
Like, for example, some of the evil socialist leftist mainstream media outlets could have said this (in fact they not only could -- they actually did!):
Fence surrounding US Capitol dismantled
So your comment:
they still have the fence they put up around the capital building, ready to go,
Could possibly be... "fake news"?
(Or could it???)
Nah but keep up the ....... gaslight ....... gaslight ..... war is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength ...... gaslight ....
Taliban-Released Terrorists Could Be Sneaking Through The US Southern Border
[ removed ]
So could . . . Illegal Aliens!
There isn't a need to sneak across the southern border. The US citizens in Afghanistan have passports, papers, and identities. Terrorists already have a ready supply of legitimate documentation needed to enter the country. And they'll likely enter from Canada since there is already a lot of travel from that part of the world.
And the House social infrastructure spending will likely pay the terrorist's costs for entering the country, too.
This yarn again? Since 2015 Canada has 'adopted' 50,000+ Syrian refugees, they're still here and not blowing up anything.
Interesting coming from a person who lives in a country who just recently reopened it's borders to the USA and only for vaccinated American citizens and legal residents.
But you've adopted 50,000+ Syrian refugees since 2015 so good on da Canada eh!
When did Canada become a global power?
There isn't a need to blow up anything in Canada because Canada doesn't have the resources to extend geopolitical influence into regional conflicts. And Canada has been very accommodating.
Canada is part of global flyover country just like the Midwest in the United States. Canada is as easy to ignore as Nebraska.
From 2015 through 2019 and I do not recall a pandemic during those years other than Canadian Conservatives spreading Sharia nonsense.
Gee ... I dunno, when you brought Canada up?
Never said you did.
So from that i take it you were in favor of shutting down your border with the USA and therefore would also be for the US shutting down our southern border for the same reason.
Right?
I'm not putting down Canada. Canada is a small country so it's impossible for Canada to participate as a global power.
When Al Qaeda attacked New York and Washington D.C., the Royal Canadian Air Force began patrolling the Atlantic coast of the United States. Canada didn't wait to be asked, Canada stepped up and did. Canada was there with all it had; Europe and NATO was not there at all.
This is nonsense, NATO invoked Article 5 the day after 9-11.
Other than the CAMUS trade agreement, your border with Mexico is not my concern.
Yeah, that's what i thought. With a Dem back in office such concerns do tend to go away for some folks.
SOSDD
Canada has always been a great ally in that regard. Now if they would just let Quebec secede ...... it would get even better.
Yeah, invoking Article 5 was a real deterrent. NATO would have done more to protect the United States if the US had provided ships, planes, personnel, and logistical support.
Canada didn't invoke anything. Canada was up, hot, and on the line. The Canadian effort to protect the United States wasn't for show so received little attention. But don't think it wasn't noticed.
As a member of NATO, Canada did indeed invoke Article 5 along with the others. At this point you appear to be bitching just for the sake of bitching.
Well, while the Wall isn't complete (nor is it very effective ) the fact is there is a wall- - weak as it is-- along parts of the Southern border. And perhaps worse yet-- the border is patrolled by human beans!
So if I was a terrorist (Note: I am not-- that is just an example I made up!) why would I be foolish enough to risk crossing the Southern border?
The smarter thing to do could (and actually would) be to cross the Canadian border. No wall at all!
And my guess is that the Canadian border is much more lightly patrolled, after all.
So here would be my advice to terrorists-- if you're going to try to enter the U.S. by a border-- don't be a total dumpkof! Take the canadian route, not the Mexican one!
Not only is it not completed but now sections are wide open due to flash flooding.
At any rate, the people blame Biden.
People have a short attention span.
And an even shorter memory.
And even less brains!
Yep-- every American blames Biden at this point.
Every single one!
(This could be true, eh?)
Oooops!
(Just noticed that
)
