The Republican who helped draft the Senate’s pending pro-migration border bill, Sen. James Lankford (R-OK), is getting roasted online for a tweet that blamed the 9/11 atrocity on illegal immigrants.
“All of the 9/11 attackers were present in the US illegally,” said the February 2 tweet from his office. “We shouldn’t wait until the next horrific terror attack to realize that our wide-open southern border is a national security risk.”
Andrew McCarthy, a lawyer who led the federal prosecution of the terrorists in the first attempt to blow up the Twin Towers in 1993, responded:
It is obvious that the border is a security risk, but the hijackers did not come that way. Most of them overstayed various grades of visa. Reporting indicates the legislation you'll propose does not address Biden's parole/visa abuse, but as you've pointed out, we await the text.

It wasn’t their illegal alien status that made them dangerous, it was the fact that they were radical Muslims.
If a person illegally enters the country and kills a lot of peoople, it isn’t their status that made them dangerous. It is their actions that made them enter illegally and kill people.
Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.
They were all illegals.
And the wide open border is a threat to national security.
Is this something like the imbeciles on SNL not understanding what "Debanked" is?
It’s over 50 million by now.
And we are still taking off our shoes at airports.
Commit terror, punish the victims.
And to clarify, I have no doubt the professional politician is playing games with our country. They all do. I no loner trust any of them or very few. My point was it’s true, most of the 911 terrorist were in this country illegally when the event occurred.
And you can bet there are those with bad intentions in this country right now on expired visas.
Therefore, they were here illegally. They were illegal aliens. Only an idiot would deny it.
If they overstayed, they were illegal. He’s right about this one single item. I wish people would stop voting by name recognition in primaries.
WTF is migration negotiator? The USA is committing suicide.
What’s his point? We won’t get any more terrorists if only 5,000 illegally cross the border in a day?
Weren’t most, if not all, the hijackers here illeglly?
They were illegal aliens! Just as the current migrant invader vermin (MIV) are...
The FBI knew what was going on and did nothing...
No, they allow the recent illegal immigrants to claim asylum, so they are not illegal, they are asylees.
This is why there are so many. Word went around that they could do this, and here they are!
And of course the Ds think it would be racist to suggest that the so-called asylees are, maybe, possibly, lying?
