Border Patrol agents in a single border sector arrested five illegal migrants on the FBI’s Terrorist Screening Database (TSDB) watch list. The apprehensions occurred on Friday in the Tucson Sector of the United States Border Patrol shortly after the end of Title 42.
Breitbart (h/t Nita) According to a source within Customs and Border Protection, not authorized to speak to the media, the migrants were referred to the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task for further investigation and identity confirmation. Information regarding the demographics and nationalities of the arrested migrants was not available. (Gee, I can’t imagine why)
According to a U.S. Customs and Border Protection report, a total of 80 illegal migrants who are listed in the Terrorist Screening Database have been apprehended after entering the United States along the southwest border between ports of entry this fiscal year. Two more were apprehended after crossing the northern border with Canada.
According to the FBI, Terrorist Screening Database contains information related to specific individuals reasonably suspected to be involved in terrorism (or related activities). A person’s name being listed in the TSDB triggers a reporting process that alerts the FBI to an encounter by the Border Patrol. The source says the additional scrutiny triggered by the encounter includes verification that the migrant whose name matches a name on the list is in fact the same person.
The number of migrants appearing in the TSDB skyrocketed under the Biden administration. During the four fiscal years of the Trump administration (FY 17 through FY 20) agents apprehended only 14 migrants appearing in the national security database. During FY 21, FY 22, and Year-to-Date FY 23 agents apprehended 196 known or suspected terrorists on the list, the CBP report states. These numbers do not include the arrests on Friday.
These arrests follow the arrests of 16 Muslims on the Terror Watchlist arrested at the Southern Border just last month.
Not to mention the arrest yesterday of an Afghan Muslim national at the San Diego border who is also on the FBI’s Terror Watchlist .

There is a lot going on down here on the border that you don’t see or hear on national or local news. A lot is probably being suppressed.
But we’re here and we see it.
ME Infidel says
Why is this treason or sedition?

Az gal says
They blend in pretty well with the Mexicans. Guess I’ll have to watch who I pass on the street. Another big terrorist attack is inevitable. Biden doesn’t care. He’ll be long gone.

Daniel Erbstoesser says
Only 5, damm that is good and soon you will have so many that like in europe nobody shows or cares who comes because there are too many, too many to hause and feed off of our costs. Europe lets all in and whinnes about the murder for a few minutes with the old story im sorry and how could that be or like our inlandminister (Faeser) asked how can he be here, that she is the one responsible for the here is secondary and should anyone say anything about it then he is a nazi and antidemocrat. No matter all is comming to an end and the end will be in germany then when germany goes to the street there is no one here left that pays the bill and then what. The german has the green dream as a problem at the moment then the greens here are taking our homes away from us with heating laws and such so all comes to an end SOON.
