President Donald Trump blamed former President Joe Biden and his lax immigration enforcement at the U.S.-Mexico border for any Iranian “sleeper cells” that may have made it into the United States.
Trump said on Wednesday that his administration had “eyes on” a number of suspicious people who he said had crossed the border during the Biden administration, adding, “We know where most of them are. We’ve got our eye on all of them, I think.”

Fox News Senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy asked Trump about an alert — sent by the federal government to law enforcement offices all across the country — indicating that an encrypted message appeared to originate in Iran shortly after the launch of Operation Epic Fury and may have been designed to activate “sleeper cells” already in the United States and other parts of the world.
“Have you been briefed about how many Iran sleeper cells there could be inside the US right now?” Doocy asked.
