Jeh Johnson, John McCain Also Worried About Potential Terrorists Crossing the SW Border
(CNSNews.com) - The concern about potential terrorists crossing into the United States from Mexico is nothing new, although Democrats and liberal media outlets were downplaying the Trump administration's concern ahead of Trump's planned address to the nation Tuesday night.
The Department of Homeland Security says most “Known or Suspected Terrorists" (or "KSTs"), the individuals on terrorist watchlists, attempt to come here by airplane.
But as Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen noted in a Jan. 7 report, "The number of terror-watchlisted individuals encountered at our Southern Border has increased over the last two years. The exact number is sensitive...But I am sure all Americans would agree that even one terrorist reaching our borders is one too many."
