Under the Biden-Harris Administration, at least 99 out of 250 illegal aliens on the terrorist watchlist encountered by Border Patrol at the southwest border between fiscal years 2021 and 2023 have been released into American communities, according to a report by Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee. Additionally, at least 34 others are in DHS custody but have not yet been removed from the United States.
The report, obtained by Fox News Digital, also reveals that immigration judges have granted bond to at least 27 migrants on the watchlist who entered illegally. Border Patrol has encountered migrants from countries that could pose national security risks, including 2,134 Afghan nationals, 33,347 Chinese nationals, 541 Iranian nationals, 520 Syrian nationals, and 3,104 Uzbek nationals.
The report notes that this does not include the unknown number of potential terrorists who may have evaded Border Patrol to enter the United States as part of the nearly 2 million “gotaways” since the beginning of the Biden-Harris Administration.
The report also found that Border Patrol had encountered migrants on the terror watchlist from 36 different countries, including places with active terrorist presences, such as Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria, Tajikistan, and Yemen.
The Terrorist Screening Dataset (TSDS) contains sensitive information on terrorist identities and now includes individuals who represent a potential threat to the United States, including known affiliates of watchlisted individuals.
The report highlights a more than 3,000% increase in the number of encounters on the terror watchlist, which has grown significantly amid the ongoing crisis at the southern border. The Biden administration has accused Republicans of not providing enough funding and reforms to address the “broken” system, while Republicans have blamed the crisis on the rolling back of Trump-era policies by the Democratic administration.
Officials have warned about the risk that terrorists may seek to enter the United States through the southern border, as demonstrated by the identification of over 400 individuals brought to the U.S. from Eastern European and Central Asian countries by an ISIS-affiliated smuggling network in the past several months. Eight Tajikistan nationals with ties to ISIS were also arrested by federal authorities in New York City, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia, all of whom entered the country illegally through the southern border.
The report concludes that American communities are already feeling the disastrous effects of the Biden-Harris Administration’s immigration policies, and the worst may still be yet to come. Policymakers must take all necessary steps to secure the border and stop the flow of illegal aliens, but the Biden-Harris Administration has refused to address the national security nightmare created by its radical, open-borders agenda.
