Biden's border policy fuels fears of potential terror attacks

Tom Homan, involved in deportations at the White House, argues that the United States could face a serious terrorist threat. According to Donald Trump's associate, this is due to Joe Biden's immigration policy. His remarks came after the high-profile incident in Colorado.

In the new Donald Trump administration, Tom Homan is responsible for deporting illegal immigrants to their countries of origin. According to him, there is a risk of migrants, who crossed the southern border illegally during Biden's administration, launching an attack similar to September 11th. "It's coming," said Tom Homan on Fox News.

About 2 million migrants, whom border patrol agents did not apprehend during the previous administration, are more concerning than the drug smuggling or human trafficking that occurred at the US-Mexico border during Biden’s single term, as he said on FOX News.

The official claims that the number of escaped migrants is alarming. He fears that some of them may be terrorists. "I'm convinced something's coming unless we can find them. It’s only a matter of time," he warned.

Homan accused the Biden administration of allowing migrants to pay to leave the country voluntarily. According to him, "they could have paid half of what they paid to cross the border." When they decided to leave the USA voluntarily, they could receive a free plane ticket, hotel room, three meals a day, or free medical care.

"I have been involved in deportations for 40 years. What the Biden administration has done should frighten every American," Homan told Fox News. The official added that the USA will struggle with Biden's policy for decades.

Tom Homan’s comments came a day after the attack in Boulder, Colorado, where Mohamed Sabry Soliman assaulted demonstrators protesting the oppression of Israeli citizens in the Gaza Strip with Molotov cocktails. During the attack, he shouted "free Palestine" and stated he wanted to harm Zionists because he despises them.

The Egyptian had applied for asylum and obtained a work permit in 2022, but his work visa expired in March of this year. This means he was in the USA illegally.
