Florida Republican Rep. Carlos Gimenez is raising the alarm after state officials confirmed that officials caught at least 17 Chinese nationals trying to illegally cross our border into the U.S.A.
“Florida Highway Patrol and U.S. Border Agents detained 17 Chinese nationals after illegally making landfall in Key Largo – my district,” a shocked Gimenez said in a Thursday press release.
“I’m proud to serve on the Armed Services Committee, Homeland Security Committee, and the new Select Committee on China and have requested additional information from all federal agencies involved. In Congress, I have fought the Biden Administration’s shortsighted border policies that have endangered our country and impacted our South Florida community,” Gimenez added.
He called the discovery of the foreign nationals “very concerning” and said he has received indications that the “Chinese Communist Party is getting more and more influence in our hemisphere.” He also said he thinks that it is the first time U.S. authorities have apprehended Chinese nationals in his part of the country.
These criminals are not coming to the U.S. to join our society. These are Chinese saboteurs who have been sent here to steal from us and to undermine our country.
But Joe Biden is increasingly allowing these terrorists to freely enter our country with no limits at all.
