A 27-year-old Al Shabaab terrorist from Somalia who illegally crossed the California border near San Ysidro in March 2023 was quickly apprehended by ICE in Minnesota after nearly a year of being in the United States.

The individual was released by Border Patrol into the U.S. but was not matched to the terror watchlist until nearly a year later. Under President Trump, the number of such incidents was in the single digits, contrasting the current uptick and sparking criticism over the Biden administration's border and immigration policies, with claims of a growing national security risk.

Insanity. This wasn’t ICE’s fault. But think about this. An Al Shabaab terrorist crossed our southern border illegally, was released into the U.S., & wasn’t matched to the terror watchlist until almost a year later.
