Two Jordanian nationals were apprehended after attempting to breach the vehicle barrier at the Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia. Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin and members of Congress are demanding answers from federal agencies including the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). One of the individuals was reportedly on a terrorist watchlist, and both were in the U.S. illegally, having entered through the Mexican border. One of the individuals had previously been admitted into the U.S. as an F-1 nonimmigrant student. House Republicans, led by Jim Jordan, are particularly vocal, seeking detailed immigration records and explanations from DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. The attempted breach occurred on May 3, 2024, and has prompted a broader discussion on the security implications of current border policies.
