During a recent episode of his podcast Verdict with Ted Cruz, the Texas Senator went off on the Biden Administration’s porous border, stressing that the eight ISIS-tied terrorists caught inside the country are a “big damn deal.”
“This story is a big damn deal,” Cruz said. “We have eight suspected terrorists, with ISIS-K, who’ve been arrested. Now they came into this country illegally at our southern border. The Biden administration apprehended them, and then they let them go. They let terrorists go.”
“And I’ve been saying for a long time, we are at a greater risk of a major terrorist attack in the United States right now than we have been any time since September 11,” he continued.
The New York Post broke the story, saying “Part of the investigation featured a wiretap which revealed one of the now-arrested individuals was talking about bombs.”
“I’ve got 51 Democrat colleagues, how many of them in Capitol Hill are being asked, ‘Why does your party keep releasing terrorists into America? And why are you endangering the lives of American families across this country?’” Cruz added.
Listen to Cruz shred the Biden Admin below:
I've said for months that Biden's open border has put the U.S. at a greater risk of a terrorist attack than we've faced at any time since 9/11.
Sadly, the arrests of illegal aliens across the country who are affiliated with ISIS prove that Biden has made us vulnerable.… pic.twitter.com/agkwzffRjT
