Terrorist Caught Illegally Crossing The Border Was Allowed To Roam Free For Nearly A Year, Memo Says

[Valletta]

The unnamed individual, who the memo only identifies as a member of the Somali terror group al-Shabaab, was released shortly after being caught illegally crossing the southern border near San Ysidro, California on March 13, 2023, according to the memo, which the DCNF is not publishing in order to protect the identity of a confidential source. The Terrorist Screening Center “deemed him a ‘mismatch'” after running his name through the terror watchlist, according to the memo, which was sent to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials.
However, on January 18, 2024, the Terrorist Screening Center “made a redetermination” that the individual was “a confirmed member of al-Shabaab” and was involved in the use, manufacture or transport of explosives or firearms, the memo states. Two days later, ICE nabbed the al-Shabaab member in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Whose Memo? How do we know we can trust them?

Whose Memo? How do we know we can trust them?

The article says "an internal federal memo exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.."

The memo states this, but can’t be published as proof they ain’t lying their butts off….which apparently they are. Nothing new here folks. Idiots will be idiots.

So why would the Biden administration let in someone who was a "mismatch?" What exactly is a mismatch? Why not wait for verification?
If you can only hold him for 72 hours that does not mean you have to let him enter our country.

Or they aren't revealing sources for the protection of the sources.

Either way....no one in the government has denied this happened so, it's probably true.

What happened to your basic reasoning skills?

I'll explain this once, so you don't have to sit there confused....but please don't ask how I know.

When you run a limited amount of information....like a name and birthday....through any number of criminal databases....

You could end up with nothing.

You could end up with 1 correct match.

You could end up with the phone book.

I'm going to guess this was a phone book situation and the man lied about his national origin or something else to convince people that the terrorist with the same identifying features was someone else. The mistake was caught later.

Maybe they haven’t denied it because folks with basic reasoning skills know anything coming from the Daily Caller is bullcrap. They have published false stories on multiple occasions, and declined to correct them when they were shown to be untrue.
