Tom Homan discusses the national security vulnerabilities created by the release of 1,272 Iranian nationals into the U.S. under the previous administration. He expresses concern over two million "gotaways" who crossed the border undetected, potentially including members of Hezbollah sleeper cells. Homan credits the current administration for prioritizing the removal of national security threats and securing the border to prevent further infiltration.

In an interview excerpt from the Sean Ryan Show, Tom Homan describes how criminal cartels have maintained operational control of the southern border. Homan highlights the "2.2 million known gotaways" and the arrest of 400 individuals on the terrorist watchlist. He explains the financial structure of human smuggling and the brutal reality of migrants paying "plaza fees" to cartels to enter the United States.

The Biden-Harris administration reportedly ordered the cessation of DNA testing at the southern border, which Jones argues facilitates human trafficking by allowing adults to claim unrelated children. He cites a Senate report regarding 89,000 missing children and 400,000 lost contacts. The segment highlights polling data showing 87% of voters view the border situation as a major problem or emergency.

Border Patrol Chief Jason Owens reported that individuals from over 160 different countries have been apprehended crossing the border illegally this fiscal year. There are approximately 140,000 "known gotaways" that pose a significant national security threat. Senator Tom Cotton and correspondent Michael Yon warn that ISIS elements from Afghanistan may use these smuggling routes to target Americans.
