INVADER NEWS: Feds Deport Some of the Suspected ISIS-Tied Migrants Who Slipped Into US, Planned Attack; US Officials Reveal Fate of Nabbed Tajikistan Illegal Immigrants With Alleged ISIS Ties
Feds deport some of the suspected ISIS-tied migrants who slipped into US, planned attack:
Federal authorities have deported some of the eight Tajik migrants suspected of having ties to ISIS and plotting at least one US attack before being rounded up in New York and two other cities.
The squad of terror suspects from Tajikistan crossed the US southern border, some illegally — and others using the Biden-Harris administration’s CBP One phone app.
“In close coordination with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), these individuals were detained in June, have remained in ICE custody since then, and either have already been removed from the United States or remain in ICE custody pending completion of their removal proceedings,” a Department of Homeland Security rep said in a statement.
“The arrest and removal of these individuals demonstrates the successful collaboration and partnership between DHS and FBI to disrupt and dismantle potential national security threats,” the representative said.
The DHS would not say exactly how many of the accused terrorists — who had not previously been on any US terror watchlist — were booted so far or what country or countries took them.
A Homeland Security source said this is how the system should work — although too often, it doesn’t.
“Because they’re part of a terrorist organization, the agency doesn’t want that liability,” he said of the recently deported suspects. “Sadly, no one cares about a rapist being free.”
The source added that even if a migrant has no criminal record, if they crossed the border illegally, they should be booted.
“ICE should remove all illegal aliens regardless of criminal record — not just certain people for political reasons,” the source said.
The source said the agency is still hunting down more members of the alleged ISIS-tied group. It wasn’t clear whether they include anyone who illegally crossed the border to get into the US.
The eight were nabbed in the Big Apple, Philadelphia and Los Angeles.
During the multistate sting, authorities wiretapped one of the suspects, who had been talking about bombs, sources previously said. The group had been discussing targeting “infidels” in the US. —>READ MORE HERE
US officials reveal fate of nabbed Tajikistan illegal immigrants with alleged ISIS ties
Some of the eight Tajikistan nationals with alleged ties to ISIS who crossed the southern border illegally have already been deported from the United States, or are in detention waiting for removal, officials said on Tuesday.
The eight nationals crossed the U.S. southern border illegally, and a federal source told Fox News in June that no derogatory information was initially flagged during their processing by officials at the border.
The illegal immigrants were nabbed in coordinated raids in Los Angeles, New York and Philadelphia by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in conjunction with the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Joint Terrorism Task Force.
The case highlighted concerns about a potential terror threat that could come across the southern border amid what was then a historic border crisis.
A DHS spokesperson confirmed to Fox News Digital on Tuesday that some of the nationals had already been removed.
“In close coordination with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), these individuals were detained in June, have remained in ICE custody since then, and either have already been removed from the United States or remain in ICE custody pending completion of their removal proceedings,” the spokesperson said.
“The arrest and removal of these individuals demonstrates the successful collaboration and partnership between DHS and FBI to disrupt and dismantle potential national security threats,” they said. —>READ MORE HERE
