ELECTION INTEGRITY: Democrats across the country are fighting tooth and nail to block efforts to require ID to vote and even harder to stop the federal government from ensuring only citizens are voting in their jurisdictions. Patriots like Scott Presler are using public records to show just how big the problem is - he found over 50,000 non-citizens registered to vote in just Philadelphia.
A former intelligence officer for Saddam Hussein was living in Michigan.
Federal agents with Homeland Security Investigations arrested Raad Alanbagi on Sunday. Alanbagi worked inside the intelligence apparatus of one of history's most repressive regimes. The arrest was made by agents based out of Detroit.
This is the kind of story that rarely makes the top of the hour. It should.
The men and women of HSI work in the background. They do not get the spotlight. They handle immigration violations, financial crimes, and national security threats that never appear in a primetime segment. On Sunday, they removed a documented associate of a regime responsible for atrocities from an American neighborhood.
The question of how Alanbagi entered this country, how long he had been here, and whether existing screening processes identified him at entry deserves a full public accounting.
The agents did their job. Now the system needs to answer the hard questions.
How long do you think national security screening has had gaps like this?
