A recent report has revealed that several former high-ranking officials at the FBI have sounded the alarm on the potential security threats posed by the Biden administration's border policies. The officials, numbering around 10, have expressed concern that these policies have led to what they describe as an 'invasion' of military-age foreigners, representing a significant threat to American national security.
These individuals, who collectively possess over 250 years of experience from various divisions within the FBI, including Counterterrorism, Counterintelligence, and Intelligence Gathering, have written a letter addressed to House Speaker Mike Johnson, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and the chairpersons of the House and Senate Intelligence and Homeland Security Committees. In their letter, they highlight their extensive experience in protecting the country from homeland security threats and emphasize the urgency of the situation.
Referring to the current influx of military-age men from countries such as Iran, Syria, Afghanistan, Egypt, Russia, and China, the former officials argue that these individuals may have ulterior motives beyond seeking a better life in the United States. They express concerns that among these individuals, there could be terrorist cells looking to carry out future attacks on American infrastructure.
The gravity of this situation is underscored by the involvement of high-profile figures among the signatories, including Kevin Brock, the former intelligence chief under Bob Mueller, and Chris Swecker, who previously headed the criminal division. Their support adds weight to the assertion that President Biden's open border policy poses the most serious security threat the country has faced in recent memory.
Mark Morgan, a signatory who previously held positions at both the FBI and the Border Protection Agency, has stated his certainty regarding the presence of terrorist cells that have crossed the border under the Biden administration, potentially posing a future threat to the United States.
This letter from the former FBI officials reflects an extraordinary level of concern about the current state of the U.S.-Mexico border. It underscores the urgent need for action to address the situation. House Speaker Mike Johnson argues that House Republicans should not compromise on this matter but push for significant changes to border policies, including through the passage of H.R.1.
The revelations from these experienced officials coincide with the situation unfolding at the Texas border, where concerns regarding national security and the increase in unauthorized crossings continue to mount. The urgency conveyed in the letter serves as a wakeup call to address the challenges posed by the border crisis promptly.
