This week, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) slammed President Biden for his policies that have resulted in the United States being at the highest risk for a major terrorist attack since September 11, 2001.
Cruz made his comments on his “Verdict” podcast with co-host Ben Ferguson while discussing the consequences of Biden’s open border policies and his weak stance toward Iran.
“I think there’s no question about it and the risk of a major terrorist attack in the United States is higher today than it has been any time since September 11, 2001,” Cruz said. “And on top of that, we have the news breaking this weekend, USA Today reported, quote, ‘The US is on high alert for a potential attack on Israel or on American facilities in the Middle East in retaliation for an Israeli strike in Syria that killed Iranian commanders.’”
“So, we have Iran the leading state sponsor of terrorism, promising a decisive response, funding millions and millions of dollars to fund Hamas terrorists, to fund Hezbollah terrorists, to fund Palestinian Islamic Jihad, to attack directly American forces in the Middle East,” he continued. “And we have on top of that, Joe Biden and the Democrats and by the way, it’s not just Joe Biden, it’s every congressional Democrat who has rubber stamped these open border policies, who have given the Iranians and Hamas and Hezbollah a red-carpet invitation to come into this country.”
Cruz went on to note that U.S. officials have said that there have been tens of thousands of drones from Mexican drug cartels that have been flown over the U.S. southern border to assist in criminal drug trafficking and human smuggling.
“At a time when Americans are directly threatened with terror, Joe Biden has given an invitation for the terrorists to come to America,” Cruz added.
