EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) — Within the past two months, border agents in California have arrested two men on the FBI’s Terrorism Watch List, U.S. Customs and Border Protection said in a news release issued Monday.
On the night of March 30, agents from the El Centro Station arrested a man who crossed into the U.S. illegally about 2 miles west of the Calexico Port of Entry.

A check of the man’s criminal history revealed that the 26-year-old man from Yemen was on the FBI’s Terrorism Watch List and the No-Fly list, the release said.
He remains in federal custody pending removal.
Early on Jan. 29, border agents arrested a 33-year-old Yemeni in the same area. A check of his records also determined that he was on the terrorism watch and no-fly lists.
Agents said they found a cellular phone SIM card hidden underneath the insole of his shoe.
The man was transferred to the custody of Immigration and Customs Enforcement or ICE.
“Part of the Border Patrol’s mission states we will protect the country from terrorists,” Chief Patrol Agent Gregory K. Bovino said in a statement. “Today, like every other day, our agents did that. These apprehensions at our border illustrates the importance of our mission and how we can never stop being vigilant in our everyday mission to protect this great country.”
CBP did not identify either man.

With Joe’s open borders, the question is, how many terrorists that crossed the border, were not apprehended? “He remains in federal custody pending removal”. The politically correct Justice Department. We are the DOJ, we do not want to hurt any terrorists. They should hang this terrorist and force the Pravda stations, to carry on television, the execution.
I would say, many and many more.
Plotting another, future 911 style incident.
Hell, i am shocked they didn’t put out the WELCOME mat for those terrorists..
they did put out the welcome mat just like Oliar did.
Send him on a date with Madame guillotine. Put that on the national news.
What happened to the narrative that the border rushers are just bringing their families here for a better life? Again, just more male bovine excrement being thrown at us
SINCE WHEN have they not been shoveling tons of manure at us..
Obviously the 2 terror suspects caught are the tip of the iceberg. Border “control” is an oxymoron with the border made into a sieve by Bidemented’s executive orders. Yet Biden voters won’t hear this will they, thanks to a complicit enemedia.
AND that’s the TWO we caught. You can bet there were MANY MORE that we didn’t.
the Democrats are terrorists.
