White House confirms ISIS-associated smuggler aided migrants’ entry into US via Mexico.

White House Confirms Smuggler⁣ with Ties to ISIS Assisted Migrants in Entering the United States

The White House has confirmed a report that‍ has set off alarm bells throughout the government. According to CNN, the FBI‌ is currently investigating a ‌group of Uzbek nationals who entered the country ⁣through the southern border earlier this year. What’s concerning is that these‍ migrants were aided by a smuggler ‍with connections to ISIS.

This revelation ⁢was‍ so alarming that it prompted urgent classified intelligence reports and emergency meetings among top national security and administration officials.⁤ The gravity of the situation cannot be understated.

“The intelligence alerted us to​ a human smuggling network. We moved‌ fast and successfully⁣ to disrupt it,” said White⁤ House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. “We are very grateful to law enforcement for their quick work and their vigilance on this.”

While ⁢the​ smugglers have been detained overseas, ⁣one of them has ties to ISIS. However, there is currently​ no ‌evidence linking the ​migrants themselves to ⁣terrorism.

Efforts are underway to identify⁢ and assess all individuals who entered the United ‍States through this network. It is important⁢ to note ⁢that no specific ISIS plot has been identified at this time.

“There’s no‌ sign that anyone moved by the smuggling network has ⁣a⁢ terrorist ​connection,” reassured Ms. Jean-Pierre.

As a precaution, individuals brought into the ‍country by the smuggling​ network are undergoing extra vetting and are all in removal proceedings. Additionally, anyone crossing the border who ‍matches the profile of those involved in the smuggling ⁣network will face additional scrutiny, detention, and expedited removal proceedings.

While the investigation is ongoing, it is ⁤crucial to remain vigilant. The FBI is still looking into⁤ more‌ than 15 of the⁢ migrants as potential criminal threats.

“This is a White House that is committed to making sure that we are protecting our homeland and also ⁣protecting⁤ the American people. ‍That ⁣is our commitment. We will continue to be vigilant on that,” emphasized Ms. Jean-Pierre.

Unsurprisingly, Republicans have taken ⁤to social media ⁢to express their concerns ⁤and⁤ criticize President Biden’s⁢ response to the border⁤ crisis.

“Smuggler with⁤ ties to‌ ISIS⁣ helped illegal aliens enter​ the US from Mexico,” tweeted Rep. Jim Jordan⁣ (R-Ohio).
