…2 solid sources — one south of the border and then one from an element within our own government that confirmed independently of each other that Iranian made MANPADS, so surface to air missiles had come across the border. We had the location and everything else. Well, we got this to Secret Service. We did the whole gamut and got everything pushed to them, and that's why Trump was pushing a lot of this stuff out when he was because we had told the Secret Service and they had the reporting and everything else. We have not, to my knowledge, have not recovered those MANPADS. But what I do know we have done is we have apprehended the couriers on a second run of theirs and local law enforcement got together with federal law enforcement and rolled up the safe house. And we have since identified what that issue was on the border.” “So we now have Iranian missiles. Who knows how many inside The United States” |

| #1 It seems to me this is not the first time we’ve heard such a tale since 9/11, along with reports of discarded IRGC uniforms and Iranian and other interesting passports found in our border regions. Or am I confusing remembrance with speculation? |
