In testimony before Congress this past week, former Border Patrol Chief Aaron Heitke accused the Biden-Harris administration of ordering a cover-up regarding the number of suspected terrorists arrested at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Heitke revealed that he was instructed to suppress data on encounters with “special interest aliens” (SIAs) and “known and suspected terrorists.” He also testified about the surge of fentanyl entering the U.S., stating that the price of a single pill had dropped from $10 to just 25 cents due to the overwhelming volume being smuggled across the border.
HOLY SH!T
Former Chief BP Agent Aaron Heitke was ordered by Biden-Harris to cover up the disaster at the border:
1. Data hidden on terror encounters
2. $150k flights to fly illegals to TX
3. 0 resources to track fentanyl pic.twitter.com/kxUtEBpxGR— End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) September 19, 2024
According to ZeroHedge, the former San Diego Border Sector Chief further alleged that the administration regularly used flights costing $150,000 each to transport illegal immigrants to Texas, with two such flights occurring weekly:
The bombshell testimony raises serious questions about national security, as Heitke further claimed the Biden administration allowed some illegal border crossers to settle in local communities ill-equipped to handle the influx. San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond, who also testified, slammed the administration for offloading the costs of transporting these individuals onto local taxpayers.
Rep. Clay Higgins, R-La., chairman of the subcommittee on Border Security and Enforcement, didn’t mince words during the hearing, calling the current situation a “self-inflicted border crisis“ and a “threat to the homeland from within the homeland,” Just the News reports.
“By ending effective Trump-era policies and programs that protected us, the Biden-Harris administration has intentionally left us vulnerable to potential attacks from terrorists and criminals who are freely moving around our communities,” Higgins said.
The testimony paints a damning picture of the administration’s border policies, which critics argue have left the U.S. exposed to dangerous threats. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), which operates under the Department of Homeland Security, has been in the spotlight for its handling of the escalating crisis. CBP Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, however, defended the administration’s actions in a recent interview, saying the changes were designed to address a years-long backlog in asylum hearings.
🚨Wow. This bombshell revelation should end Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign…
Kamala previously mocked the idea that America needs a wall to secure our border and stop terrorists from entering. But the former Chief Patrol Agent for the Border Patrol’s San Diego Sector… pic.twitter.com/jV1c47NSsR

Heitke also criticized the administration for cutting detention funding, reducing detention space nationwide and leaving large sections of the border unpatrolled for extended periods.
