The gotaways don’t want to be caught for a very important reason. Most are predators, some are terrorists.

[No name given]

And all of them are criminals.

[DIRTYSECRET]

A quick power turnover in Iran would help.

👍

Seize their bank accounts and use the money to fight the bigger battle.

Fight it out in court over the next few years.

[Bigg Red]

Whom did they pay?

[Menehune56]

That is an excellent question!

[citizen]

However, the biggest concern is the two million plus who paid more to get away because they didn't want to be fingerprinted. They didn't want to be vetted. They didn't want to even deal with law enforcement at all.

The bolded portion above - who did they pay? The coyotes to sneak them into the country past the Border Patrol?

[MtnClimber]

Whom did they pay?

The cartels in Mexico.

“The bolded portion above - who did they pay? The coyotes to sneak them into the country past the Border Patrol?”

Also, corrupt elements of the Border Patrol? Every group has some bad apples.

[joshua c]

that was my guess

they paid the coyotes to enter without encountering border patrol

why pay extra when they were letting everyone in anyway

to avoid fingerprinting

[ConservativeMind]

I know someone who currently lives south of the border who was asked by a friend he knows for a $4,000 loan to get his daughter smuggled into the US.

Of course that answer was “No.”

[citizen]

Yeah, that’s what I thought. And the bad actors/state sponsored would pay the most for evading the BP and remaining unknown.

If Homan is worried, I am, too.

[ridesthemiles]

SOOOOOOOOOO—_

WHERE IN THE FINANCIAL RECORDS DO THEY LIST THE INCOME OF 2 MILLION INVADERS FROM IRAN WHO PAID EXTRA TO BE ALLOWED TO ENTER THE USA WITHOUT INFO & FINGERPRINTING???

WHAT FEE WAS PAID? TIMES OVER 2 MILLION———

[ridesthemiles]

MAYBE NOT ONLY FROM IRAN———

CARTELS——

[Mean Daddy]

I would recommend researching Sarah Adams. She argues the majority of terrorists came here via legal means as going thru South America thru Mexico to the US due to the cartel dangers. She estimates 1,000-1,500 ISIS members in the US.

[Bigg Red]

Okay, thanks.

[Bigg Red]

Turns out Homan is saying that the illegals paid the coyotes to be smuggled in and also paid more to be taken somewhere else in the country so they couldn’t be vetted.

Some are pre positioned Military. No other way to arrive into the USA heartland almost unnoticed. Those coming from China are not ‘escaping’ tyranny. They also use ‘legal’ marijuana grow farms for funding. All planned and orchestrated by our enemies.
