DHS warns of heightened threat as 8 with suspected ISIS ties arrested
* 8 people from Tajikistan with suspected ISIS ties arrested
* Entered through southern border, being held on immigration violations
* Wray: Information is found later that highlights why they're of concern
"NEW YORK CITY (NewsNation) — The U.S. remains in a heightened threat environment for both foreign and domestic terrorism following two arrests this week. The latest occurred Wednesday during a traffic stop in New York City. Officers found a cache of weapons in the man’s car, including knives, axes, a machete, a gun, ballistic vests and a mask. NYPD officials say they are investigating the suspect for possible terrorist ties.
"In the past few days, eight people from Tajikistan with suspected ties to the Islamic State group were arrested in New York, Philadelphia and Los Angeles, the Department of Homeland Security confirmed to NewsNation.
The suspects entered the U.S. through the southern border, and are being held on immigration violations, said multiple people familiar with the matter who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.
"The nature of their suspected connections to the IS was not immediately clear, but the individuals were being tracked by the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, or JTTF, for months. They were in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which made the arrests while working with the JTTF, pending proceedings to remove them from the country."

Exactly what, if anything, will make the useless Biden Administration close the border?
I think that most Americans have either forgotten about the terrorist attacks of September 11 or else they are tired of hearing about it. It's like COVID: they downplay it, they shrug it off, and then when it happens, they make excuses.
When the next Islamic terrorist attack occurs in this country, either from ISIS or Hamas, you can be sure that the blame will be placed on Trump, the Jews, and/or "Islamophobia".
