Just astonishing.
Everywhere you look, you see the Biden junta and Democrats dong anything they can to harm America. Not juts this and the horde of illegals, but Democrats refusing to approve a bill that would deport non-citizens who attack police, etc., etc., etc. ad nauseam.
They truly hate America.

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has rejected a request by Fox News to reveal the nationalities of people on the FBI terror watchlist arrested at the border by Border Patrol, citing "privacy interests" of those involved.
Fox filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request in October requesting the nationalities of suspects on the FBI terror watchlist arrested at the southern border entering between ports of entry by Border Patrol.
Over six months later, CBP told Fox it will not provide the information, although it acknowledges the information is maintained in the Terrorist Screening Dataset (TSDS).
The letter says it is applying exemptions to protect the disclosure of files that may create a "clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy" and must balance a public's right to disclosure against an individual's right to privacy.
"The privacy interests of the individuals in the records you have requested outweigh any minimal public interest in disclosure of the information. Any private interest you may have in that information does not factor into the aforementioned balancing test," it says.
It also cites exemptions that protect records that would disclose techniques or procedures for law enforcement investigation and those that could be expected to endanger the life or safety of any individual.
Fox did not request personal information, only the countries from which the encounters originated.
...
"Wow: DHS thinks the "privacy" of potential national security threats is more important than the American people's right to know where these individuals are coming from," Republicans on the House Homeland Security Committee said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
