FBI Designated Afghan Terror Threat Crosses Southern Border
An Afghan national who is on the FBI terror threat list recently crossed Joe Biden’s dangerously open border, according to Fox News national correspondent Bill Melugin.
Melugin says U.S. Customs and Border Patrol sources alerted him to the danger.
The news comes amidst an illegal immigration crisis that the official Biden Administration estimates involves hundreds of thousands of people flooding to and across the southern border.

The California crossing, which was estimated to have occurred on Wednesday, is reportedly being investigated by the FBI. Despite being identified among a group of migrants at a processing center, the terror threat was allowed to roam the country freely for over half a week before his arrest was announced Sunday afternoon.

California Representative Darrell Issa, who represents the district where the Afghan national crossed over, slammed President Biden – going as far as to say that Biden was “inviting” terrorists to the country via his poor border policies.
“Biden’s open borders aren’t just a gateway to five million illegals, record human and child trafficking and the deadliest drug crisis in our history. Biden’s reckless policy is also an open invitation to even the most wanted terrorists in the world to come to America. They know they’ll never have to leave.”
Despite illegal immigration numbers that beat out the previously record-setting years of President Clinton, Biden Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas downplayed the crisis on CNN.
“Over the past two days, the United States Border Patrol has experienced a 50 percent drop in the number of encounters versus what we were experiencing earlier in the week.”
While Mayorkas claims that border encounters are down, several cities, counties, and one state declared a state of emergency over the unsustainable influx of migrants.
Mayorkas continued his statement on CNN, saying that approximately 20,000 people had come across the border – 10,000 before Title 42 expired and 10,000 since.
Mayorkas’s estimate seems significantly lower than the number of illegal immigrants crossing the border. The Texas city of El Paso alone has 5,000 migrants in custody, with thousands more currently incoming.

The situation has even reached the northeastern shores of the U.S., with New York City experiencing a financial crisis due to the massive influx of illegal immigrants.
Prominent public figures and everyday Americans alike have reacted with shock and anger to the Title 42 crisis and the subsequent entrance of terror threats into the United States.

Twitter CEO and free speech advocate Elon Musk, responding to a video showing thousands crossing the border, offered just one word in response: “Wow.”
“[shaking my head], I’m glad that I don’t live down there! I really hate seeing the illegals coming here that are proudly holding their “home” flag. They don’t even seem to be thankful to be here; we are just being used” ~@ jeanie_lochner on Twitter
Many conservatives are questioning the crisis response of the border states. Specifically, they take issue with Texas’s Republican Governor Greg Abbott and what they perceive to be his lackluster deployment of troops to the border.
Thought Texas had the national guard on the border? Where are they????
