The border crisis continues to get worse under the current administration. This year reports from the CBP (The U.S. Customs and Border Patrol) there have been 78 contacts with people that are on the TSDS (Terrorist Screening Dataset) which is the government’s watchlist for known and suspected terrorists, people that are terrorists or have been connected to terrorists or terrorist organizations.

Between 2017 and 2021 there were 30 encounters at the southern border with people that were on the TSDS. This year as of Sept there have been 78 encounters with people on the TSDS. That’s two and a half times the number of encounters with people on the TSDS than in the last 4 years combined. These are the people that were caught, how many terrorists made it across the open southern border? How many are setting up terrorist cells and planning ways to hurt Americans? The current administration continues to make it easier and easier for illegal immigrants to cross the border. The invasion of the southern borders is succeeding and will eventually cause irreparable harm to the United States of America unless something is done and done soon!
