According to a bombshell report from NBC News, more than 400 illegal migrants who are currently in the country have been tied to an ISIS-affiliated smuggling network; the whereabouts of 50 remain unknown.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement is looking to arrest them on immigration charges when they are located.
“In this case, it was the information that suggested a potential tie to ISIS because of some of the individuals involved in [smuggling migrants to the border] that led us to want to take extra care,” said a senior Biden administration official, “and out of an abundance of caution make sure that we exercised our authority in the most expansive and appropriate way to mitigate risk because of this potential connection being made.”
