GOP Sounds The Alarm About “An Urgent Terrorist Threat”

This is more than possible. Biden has made this a real possibility with the border crisis he created and refuses to properly handle. He also supplied the world with a fresh round of terrorists since he gave Afghanistan to the Taliban. A GOP rep warned that this threat is very real, that ISIS may come through our practically wide-open border. He’s not wrong.

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.’”

This really is not farfetched and should be addressed. We should tighten up our border now that Biden has caused the release of over 5000 prisoners, many aligned AL Qaeda. But that would make sense and the current administration is not going to start doing that.
