Our lack of immigration enforcement, both at the border and enforcing visas has existed for a very long time.
Congress has done a couple of reports noting individuals from terrorist supporting nations and organizations have been crossing the border for decades. In 2006 congress released a report "A LINE IN THE SAND: COUNTERING CRIME, VIOLENCE AND TERROR AT THE SOUTHWEST BORDER"; they released an update on it in 2012. Both note the that members of terrorist organizations have been apprehended and note it is highly likely more have evaded detection.
In 2010, during a routine traffic stop near Boston, the LEO followed up on his suspicions the driver was an illegal alien. That illegal alien owned and operated a flight school, which had a number of foreign students that were illegal aliens. Many on expired visas, some with no record of entry. (GAO-12-875, page 29). This kind of thing was discussed by the congressional committee on 9/11, that local LEOs would most likely encounter potential terrorists during routine encounters. Hence the need for Feds to coordinate with LEOS.
Instead, most jurisdictions now prohibit local LEOs from even following up on their suspicions about immigration status during routine encounters.
The weakness and treason of the Biden administration continues. Weakness invites attack. Blinken disasters are the norm. Even without the corruption and questionable politics, the Biden-Blinken Blunders are still driven by a level of ineptitude unseen in America for many decades. As we say in Texas "they couldn't find their own ass using both hands." Of course the $6 billion oil cave-in by Biden is funding Hamas! Of course it's Iran behind the slaughter of Israelis. But the Biden mouthpieces lie, lie, lie.
<i><blockquote>"At a minimum, Biden should have announced the reimposition of the freeze on the $6 billion that he earlier agreed to release to Iran..."</i></blockquote>
Honestly, I think that horse has already left the barn. They can't re-freeze the $6B because it's already gone, despite what the Biden administration, Qatar, or Iran says. That money is in the wind.

John, how many aircraft carriers and other naval vessels do we need in the gulf to become a real target for our many enemies?

Facebook says you are spam. I guess they don't like what you have to say.
