The comment that they caught 10 terrorist, so they much be doing a good job, is asinine in the most extreme. The Border Patrol arrested over 56 thousand of these assholes in October. Yeh, they’re doing a hell of a job, otherwise you would be paying even more taxes than you already are.. You think France is having second thoughts about the open borders the EU forced on them? Just so you can check the facts; the Border Patrol arrested more tan the 56 thousand illegals in October of this year. Before you make these kind of comments, you should consider two things, first quit the Gin, second, educate your self a little bit more before popping off with your stupidity. You will have more luck after quitting the Gin.

Astounding to me that anyone could actually suggest that ISIS or any other terror group have not come in through Mexico with other illegals. But when googling this topic, link after link are articles and reports that there are zero terrorists coming in to the US across the southern border. I find it truly astounding and it appears to very obvious that Google is suppressing information about this.

More proof that we don't need to waste tax dollars on Big Beautiful Walls, we should direct our resources to hiring more Border Patrol Agents to arrest more assholes tying to terrorize us at our southern border.

Agree 100% Airforceone... They're like the crowd in the children's story "The Emperor Has No Clothes"

I think Michael Cohen just took the role of the little boy in the crowd... This will be interesting.

No Seth, you may not. You are projecting. It is you who is the bonehead. (I hope this doesn't rise to insult and get deleted again.)

This only says no known or suspected foreign terrorist organizations. Not no terrorists. Not all terrorists are actual documented members of terrorist organizations, whether known or not.

But Trump's count was incorrect. I'm including a few foreign born terrorists who were caught. Many on this list had also committed murder.
Mohamed Abdirahman Osman
Zeinab Abdirahman Mohamed
Omar Abdulsattar Ameen -- ISIS
Hamid Hayat
Aws Mohammed Younis al-Jayab
Ali Kourani
Samer el Debek -- Hizballah
Cristian Vintila -- FARC (Fuerzas Armada Revolucionarias de Colombia )
Jubair Ahmad
Naser Almadaoji
Iyman Faris
Rasmi Khader Almallah -- Hamas
Fawaz Mohammed Damrah -- multiple Palestinian terror organizations
Gilberto Jordan
Beatrice Munyenyezi
Kelbessa Negewo
Rasmea Odeh
Vicky Peláez
Jorge Sosa

From the risk analysis of DHS "Foreign-born terrorists who entered the country, either as immigrants or tourists, were responsible for 88 percent (or 3,024) of the 3,432 murders caused by terrorists on U.S. soil from 1975 through the end of 2015. "

If they caught ten, how many more slipped through? Use your noggin!

Two were caught a while back in my county. Picked up on SR80 which passes about 15 miles from me. So definitely don't believe the "zero terrorists" news.

Welllll...

There are certain things that are so obvious to anyone with even an iota of analytical capability and minimal exposure to economic reality that when one sees where somebody is so obtuse that they base arguments on a total, "ignore the obvious" contradiction of these things, one can honestly opine that the source of these same contradictions is

a) so politically "zombified" that he/she simply speaks the party line even when it has bluntly descended to the level of buffoonery, or

b) a bonehead.

To my way of thinking, a bonehead is the more preferable of the two, as there is still a possibility that the bonehead places love of country above a political dogma geared specifically to bring down said country and can eventually become better informed, whereas the political zombie, a mainly left wing phenomenon, simply and irrationally hates America as a concept, in the case of many whose posts I've read herein, would be thrilled to see our Constitutional republic collapse, being replaced by a socialist country -- thrilled, that is, until they fully realize exactly what they and the left wing politicans they voted for have actually gotten us into, and that it is too late to do anything about it.

So consider "bonehead" a more esteemed type of classification than "a)".

Good article. I wonder how many terrorists entered on foot across our southern border. It seems like it would be a very slow slug if a terrorist chose the caravan as a way to sneak into our country. I also wonder why Trump continues to risk hiring foreign-born workers to serve his meals and iron his boxers.

Punk ass orange bitch -- fits to a tee!

Look at trump's history of underpaying his employees, or not paying his contractors at all. Long hours, no overtime. Work done, no pay. Would his base want this to happen to them?

This is not an entirely true statement.... there were times that President Trump used a loophole in the laws for contractors, known as "selling out goodwill." This is absolutely legal and is employed often in the business world. Let me see if I can give you an example that is basic and short (I tend to get long winded). Let us say that you are a painter and a business hires you to paint their buildings. Let us say that you shook hands on doing that work for $100K.
You do most of the work but subcontract out a portion and you submit the bill for payment.
The customer walks the site with you and points out issues. Due to those issues, the customer says they will only pay $50K. You have a choice.... take the new offering or sue. If you sue then the most you can get is the remainder of funds (total $100K), contract law does not allow for punitive damages or cost of the attorney. So.... do you go to court, and lose money you have to shell out to lawyers and also risk of loosing your case and receive only $50K or less plus the expense of lawyers and court fees or just complain to the media to warn other contractors? Naturally when the person talks to the media they do not go into details....such as watering down the paint to make it go further or even not painting behind equipment. Also, contractors are responsible for paying their workers and for scheduling. Ergo, if overtime is necessary to bring the job in on time (normally there is a penalty clause if you go beyond the delivery date) the contractor eats that extra outlay.

You would need to provide more specifics of nonpayment to workers who are not contracted that President Trump did not pay. For example a maid or chef who worked directly for the Trumps. I can not find any examples where he did not pay a personal employee.

The President mispoke. There are a number of links that talk about how that "statistic" morphed into being. I'm willing to bet that the real number of people considered terrorists who have been detained coming over the southern border is a only known by a few members in the legistlature, since it's the kind of info that the intelligence community isn't readily sharing. So I guess we can commence the impeachment hearings.../sarcasm.
