ICE pulled off a coordinated sting operation in three cities — Los Angeles, New York, and Philadelphia. Six Russian nationals were arrested.
ICE sources confirmed to the New York Post that they arrested the six people who came from Tajikistan. The arrests occurred over the last week after the FBI gave them a heads-up.
A wiretap was used in the sting. One of the Russians was heard talking about bombs.
“Remember the Boston marathon [bombing]? I’m afraid something like that might happen again or worse,” one of the sources told The Post.
My immediate question was whether or not the Russian nationals are in the United States legally.
The target who was subject to the wiretap was previously released by federal authorities at the southern border with a court date next year, but it has since emerged he has potential ties to ISIS, sources said.
Thanks, President Biden. Biden’s insistence on an open southern border is going to get a lot of people killed in a horrific event, as things are now.
