Dina Titus downplayed the threat of terrorists crossing the border in a hearing today.

Democrat Rep. Dina Titus repeatedly downplays the 98 known terror suspects encountered at the border: “We can say one person can blow up a building…that’s stretching the point.”

According to Titus, “that’s such a small percent that we are doing a pretty good job of stopping these outside people…“

But Border Patrol has recorded at least 1.3 million “gotaways” who successfully evaded capture. It is impossible to know how many terrorists were among the 1.3 million who escaped into the U.S. interior.

Just last year, one terror suspect remained on the loose for two weeks and another ISIS plot to smuggle seven terrorists over the border was discovered.

“Dina Titus is so extreme she thinks the threat of terrorists crossing the southern border is no big deal. Titus is dangerously wrong.” – NRCC Spokesperson Ben Petersen
