We’ve been told that the Islamic State is virtually on the edge of extinction because of the Trump administration, but now that same boogeyman is being resurrected in a new report that indicates that a detained Islamic State member confirmed that they plotted to send Islamic terrorists through the open southern border of the US adjacent to Mexico.

“A chilling confession from a captured ISIS fighter has shed light on how the terrorist group intended to exploit the vulnerabilities of the U.S. border with Mexico, using English speakers and westerners to take advantage of smuggling routes and target financial institutions,” reports Fox News.

“Seized ISIS fighter Abu Henricki, a Canadian citizen with dual citizenship with Trinidad, last month said that he was sought out by the violent insurgency’s leadership to attack the U.S from a route starting in Central America, according to a study by the International Center for the Study of Violent Extremism (ICSVE) and published in Homeland Security Today,” adds Fox News.

“ISIS has organized plots in Europe with returnees so it seems entirely plausible that they wanted to send guys out to attack. The issue that makes a North American attack harder is the travel is more difficult from Syria,” said Anne Speckhard, who co-conducted the study. “So the idea that they would instead use people who were not known to their own governments as having joined ISIS might make it possible for them to board airplanes.”

Sean Hannity’s staff wrote, “The escalating border crisis is even worse than previously thought; with new data showing a 99% increase in illegal immigration from the same time last year and warning more than 1,072,000 migrants are likely to enter the United States in 2019.”

“U.S. Customs and Border Protection on Wednesday revealed that May apprehensions topped 144,000. This year has seen 676,315 apprehensions so far, up 99% over this time last year,” reports the Washington Examiner. “That shocked immigration officials who had hoped it would drop in part due to the Trump administration’s get tough efforts on the border and the potentially deadly heat migrants encounter traveling through northern Mexico.”

“Steven Kopits, the president of Princeton Policy Advisors which has predicted that immigrant apprehensions would reach 931,000 this year, expressed concern about the May numbers and boosted his prediction to 1,072,000,” adds the Examiner.

What’s interesting is that Border Patrol can obviously capture hundreds of illegals walking around the border wall, but do nothing to stop them from crossing over into the US.

Instead, they just watch via video and later “apprehend” them, only to be fed, clothed and housed, along with given hygiene products and healthcare at your expense.

In hundreds of thousands of cases, they are also flown all across America on your dime, all while you are told of the danger of open borders and the political blame game about this impotent, even criminal behavior plays out on the national stage.

Apparently, the Islamic State is aware that “Osama bin Laden” crossed the southern border, but they have yet to realize just how open America’s coasts and northern border actually are.

Meanwhile, unconstitutional tariffs are being proposed as a means of staving off further illegal immigrant invasion, instead of constitutional means of Congress calling up the militia to “repel invasions” as the Constitution authorizes.
