ROOKE: Biden’s Border Crisis Exposed America’s Dirty Foreign Agent Secret

The Biden Administration’s open border policies give Americans a small window to see into the minds of the people running the country.

It seems like a no-brainer that the men and women elected to lead the U.S. would put America’s interest above all else, and yet, there are daily reminders that not only are they not doing that, but their allegiances are to foreign nations wanting to destroy the country.

The Daily Caller News Foundation reported exclusively Monday that federal authorities caught a Somali terrorist from the al-Shabaab terror group at the California border and released him into the interior United States, where he stayed for almost a year before eventually being arrested again in Minnesota.

The internal memo identified an unnamed individual picked up by federal authorities on March 13, 2023. The man’s name was run through the terror watchlist by the Terrorist Screening Center (TSC), which determined he was safe to enter the U.S. He was allowed to travel freely throughout the country until Jan. 18, 2024, when the TSC re-ran the man’s name and confirmed he was a Somali terrorist “involved in the use, manufacture or transport of explosives or firearms, ” according to the report.

It’s hard to explain what it does to the psyche of a country’s citizens when they realize national safety is a myth and even worse when one of its elected officials is telling crowds of people in a foreign language that her allegiances lie with Somalia first.

Democrat Minn. Rep. Ilhan Omar told Somalis at a recent event that although there are “areas of friction” among their people, Somalis know “they are Somalians first, Muslims second.”

“Many Somalians have personally called me to encourage me to speak to the U.S. government and help Somalia. They wanted to know what the U.S. government could do for Somalia to ensure the MoU [Memorandum of Agreement] never turns into a full bilateral agreement. My answer to Somalians was that the U.S. government will only do what Somalians in the U.S. tell them to do. They will do what we want and nothing else,” Omar told the crowd according to a translation on X, formally Twitter. “They must follow our orders, and that is how we will safeguard the interest of Somalia. We Somalians must have that confidence in ourselves that we call for the shots in the U.S.”

“We live in the U.S., pay taxes in the U.S., and have a real voice. The U.S. is a country where one of your daughters is in Congress to represent your interests,” she continued.

“For as long as I am in the U.S. Congress, Somalia will never be in danger. Its waters will not be stolen by Ethiopia or others. The U.S. would not dare to support anyone against Somalia to steal our land or oceans. Sleep in comfort, knowing I am here to protect the interests of Somalia from inside the U.S. system,” Omar promised. “The woman you sent to Congress is working day and night to protect your interests. She knows your plight and that of Somalia. I am as concerned about Somalia as you guys are. Together we will protect the interests of Somalia.”

The speech went viral, forcing the U.S. representative to defend herself, claiming that the translations were “slanted,” accusing everyone of taking her out of context. (ROOKE: When Will The Media’s Favorite Conspiracy Theories Stop Falling Apart?)

She is not the only official accused of subverting U.S. interests for those of a foreign country. The Daily Caller reported in Oct. 2023 that the Biden Administration quietly revoked its special envoy to Iran, Robert Malley’s security clearance, after he was found allegedly “mishandling classified information.”

Malley was the lead negotiator for the U.S. on the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) under former President Barack Obama, which saw Iran receive the now infamous billions of dollars in sanctions relief. Malley called the Hamas terrorist group a “charity organization” in a 2008 interview, according to the New York Post.

While the Biden Administration would love for the American people to focus on Taylor Swift and abortion as the topics that will lead the 2024 presidential election, it’s a tall order, considering the drums of war get louder every day. If the country goes to war with Iran or Hamas, how are American parents supposed to willingly send their children to die in the desert, knowing the people running war games are helping the enemy?

“I didn’t fly 55 combat missions or lose 14 classmates to war so I could come home and watch Joe Biden roll out a welcome mat for terrorists,” TX Rep. Wesley Hunt posted on X. “These people want us DEAD. Biden’s response? Sue Governor Abbott for securing the border. If there’s another 9/11 in this country the blood will be on Joe Biden’s hands. FULL STOP.”

U.S. Customs and Border Patrol reported encountering over 170 terror watchlist suspects in 2023. With the number of illegal immigrants that get through the border without the Border Patrol’s knowledge, it’s safe to assume just as many terrorists are hiding inside our country as the number who are stopped from entering. (ROOKE: If It’s Really A ‘Right Wing Conspiracy Theory,’ Why Do Democrats Keep Proving It’s Real?)

Our border is wide open to anyone willing to cross, and the reality is that Americans have no idea if the new people occupying their towns are peaceful people searching for a new life or terrorist cells waiting to kill U.S. citizens.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
