Mayorkas shows his incompetence once again as some of the 42 apprehended illegal immigrants on the terrorist watch list may have been released into the US

Last week, the Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said that he was unaware of the status and location of 42 illegal immigrants apprehended at our border who are on the terrorist watch list and no-fly list.

When asked by Representative Jim Jordan (OH,) “Have any of the 42 illegal migrants on the terrorist watch list or no fly list encountered on our border been released into the United States?” Mayorkas responded simply and incompetently “I do not know the answer to your question.”

On May 4th, Mayorkas said to the Senate Homeland and Governmental Affairs Committee

“Some may be placed in removal proceedings. Some may be placed in criminal custody. Some may be cooperating with law enforcement. Some may be downgraded from the terrorist rating,”

However, he still would not share the precise nature of each of the 42 cases. He instead offered a classified briefing of that information to Senator Rob Portman (OH) at a different time.

From the Epoch Times:

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) recently revealed that 42 people on the terror watchlist “attempted to enter the United States illegally” and were arrested by border agents between Jan. 20, 2021 and March 2022. The watchlist is maintained by the FBI, which says people on it are “reasonably suspected to be involved in terrorism (or related activities).”

42 terrorists attempted to enter the United States illegally. Mayorkas, the man in charge of Homeland Security, initially did not know the status of all (or perhaps any) of them. And now that he does, he won’t share it publicly. However, he insinuates that some of them may have been downgraded from the terrorist list and released into our country.

Biden’s regime, from the ground up, does not care about Americans’ safety. If they did, they wouldn’t be letting illegal immigrants flood into our country while repealing the mechanism for removal, and releasing terrorists into our nation
