Sen. Marsha Blackburn emphasized the need for the US to secure its border, citing the influx of individuals from various countries, including those on the terror watch list.
She pointed out the enforcement issue and highlighted the diverse origins of those seeking entry, noting the presence of military-aged men.
Blackburn argued that the loose asylum policy would not be tolerated in other countries. (Trending: Kid Rock Rages Against ‘Woke’ Target)
“When you look at who is coming across that border, and under Joe Biden, we’ve had 279 known terrorists seek entry into this country,” Blackburn said.
“This administration choosing not to enforce the law — I mean, you can look at the number of terrorists under Donald Trump — one year, we had three, a couple of years we had zero.”
“So that shows you what enforcing the law does. If you’re a terrorist, you’re not going to come in this country. Like I said, you know, if it were up to me, it would be, ‘Send them to Gitmo’,” she said.
“They’re a terrorist, they are not going to wish you well. Their job is to destroy you,” she pressed.
“You have people from what is termed special interest countries. And these may be people that are coming from China, where we had 2,000 people come from China to our southern border in the month of October alone, or they may be from Russia, where we had over 100 in October alone,” she added.
“So we’re just saying, look, it’s time to secure the southern border. It’s not just people from Mexico, or from the Northern Triangle that are coming to that border.”
“This is people from all around the world that are seeking entry. … They’re not coming here to go to Disney World or to get a better job, not all of them.”
“We’ve got a lot of military-aged young men, single, that are presenting at our southern border right now,” she said.
