Who is coming over the southern border? The answer isn’t what you might think – By Gitanjali Poonia (Deseret News) / Nov 20, 2023
Republican Texas Rep. Michael McCaul said he was concerned about the record number of attempted border crossings by people on the U.S. terrorist watchlist at a congressional hearing last week.
“We’ve had about 7.5 million encounters at the southern border. We’ve had 7,000 special interest aliens. We’ve had nearly 200 (encounters with individuals) on the terror watchlist (this year),” he said in a press release after the hearing.
While questioning FBI Director Christopher Wray, McCaul asked whether 200 encounters at the border with individuals on the terror watchlist concerned the FBI chief.
