Border Patrol Chief Admits Biden Regime Allowed Drug Cartels, Terrorists Into America
It looks like deliberate destabilization of the United States is almost complete under the current Democrat regime.
In a scathing revelation before Congress, former San Diego Sector Border Patrol Chief Aaron Heitke accused the Biden-Harris regime of covering up a sharp rise in encounters with suspected terrorists at the US-Mexico border.
During a House Committee on Homeland Security hearing titled "A Country Without Borders: How Biden-Harris' Open-Borders Policies Have Undermined Our Safety and Security," Heitke said he was muzzled from releasing critical information on the number of Special Interest Aliens (SIAs) — individuals with known or suspected ties to terrorism — apprehended in California.
“I was told I could not release any information on this increase in SIAs or mention any of the arrests,” Heitke testified. “The administration was trying to convince the public there was no threat at the border.”
“Once word was out that the border was far easier to cross, San Diego went to over 100 SIAs in 2022, well over that in 2023, and even more than that registered this year. These are only the ones we caught,” Heitke warned.
The bombshell testimony raises serious questions about national security, as Heitke further claimed the Biden regime allowed some illegal border crossers to settle in local communities ill-equipped to handle the influx. San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond, who also testified, slammed the administration for offloading the costs of transporting these individuals onto local taxpayers.
Clay Higgins, R-La, chairman of the subcommittee on Border Security and Enforcement, didn’t mince words during the hearing, calling the current situation a "self-inflicted border crisis" and a "threat to the homeland from within the homeland."
"By ending effective Trump-era policies and programs that protected us, the Biden-Harris administration has intentionally left us vulnerable to potential attacks from terrorists and criminals who are freely moving around our communities" Higgins said.
"These are not just undocumented migrants seeking a better life," Heitke testified. "These are individuals with ties to terrorist organizations. And we’re not catching all of them."
With border apprehensions on the rise and the stakes higher than ever, the Biden regime faces mounting pressure to restore security and transparency at the southern border before it's too late. We all know with these traitors in power, that will not happen.
