Rep. Duncan Hunter (R., Calif.) claimed on Tuesday that “at least 10” Islamic State (IS) fighters have been caught crossing the United States’ southern border and that “there are going to be dozens more” who are not caught by American border patrol, a claim the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) flatly rejects.
Hunter, a member of the House Armed Services Committee (HASC), maintained that his information about IS, also known as ISIS or ISIL, militants crossing the border came directly from border patrol agents on the ground in Texas.
“At least ten ISIS fighters have been caught coming across the border in Texas,” Hunter told Fox News host Greta Van Susteren during an interview. “I’ve asked the border patrol.”
Authorities at the border snagged these ten militants, according to Hunter, who warned, “we know that ISIS is coming across the border. If they catch five or ten of them, you know that there are going to be dozens more that did not get caught by the border patrol.”

How much longer? For this fool of a pResident to step down? But then we get another fool for a pResident. When vain and aspiring men hold our highest offices, what is our duty?
