Cruz: ‘More Terrorists Will Enter The Country’ Through The Border If Kamala Wins

 Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said this week that the explosive testimony of a former top U.S. border official showed that if Vice President Kamala Harris wins the election this fall, more terrorists will sneak through the southern border.

Cruz made the remarks during his “Verdict” podcast with host co-host Ben Ferguson while discussing retired San Diego Border Patrol Chief Patrol Agent Aaron Heitke’s testimony to the Homeland Security Committee.

“In San Diego, we had an exponential increase in significant interest aliens,” Heitke said. “These are aliens with significant ties to terrorism. Prior to this administration, the San Diego sector averaged 10 to 15 SIA arrests per year. Once word was out the border was far easier to cross, San Diego went to over 100 SIAs in 2022, well over that in 2023, and even more than that registered this year. These are only the ones we caught.”

“At the time, I was told I could not release any information on this increase in SIAs or mention any of the arrests,” he continued. “The [Biden-Harris] administration was trying to convince the public there was no threat at the border.”

Cruz called the surge in illegal alien terrorist suspects crossing the border “massive.”

 

“This is what Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have done, and you look at each of the facts, you look at suspected terrorists,” Cruz said. “And this is just in one sector, in the San Diego sector, that it went from about 10 to over 100 a year. That is massive. That is massive. That means hundreds and hundreds of suspected terrorists coming in just one sector, and those are the ones they caught. It doesn’t count the ones they didn’t catch. He wasn’t allowed to say that publicly.”

Cruz said that with Democrats, “it’s all politics all the time.”

“Look, I get why the Biden White House didn’t want people to know it, but we now have this testimony in the House of Representatives,” he said. “How is it that it’s not on the front page of the Houston Chronicle tomorrow?”

“If the press is not going to do its job, use your voice, because the only way to stop this, if Kamala Harris is president in January, God help us, this will continue. More terrorists will enter the country,” he added. “If Kamala Harris is president, more terror, more murders, more rapists, more child molesters, more Americans will die if Kamala Harris is president.”
