President Trump’s second-term enforcement push has produced the tightest southern border in modern CBP history: 15 straight months of zero releases, southwest-border apprehensions down about 94% from the Biden-era average, and daily encounters near 250 instead of 5,000-plus. DHS also reports hundreds of thousands of removals, millions leaving through self-deportation, and ICE arrests of more than 1,400 known or suspected terrorists. RAV correspondent Ben Bergquam reports from the raids and the line.
Crossings collapsed. Cartels were designated foreign terrorist organizations. A new 2026 counterterrorism strategy puts hemispheric narcoterror first, then al-Qaeda and ISIS networks. Col. Rob Maness, a 32-year USAF combat veteran, asks the question Washington still ducks: with lone actors, African affiliates, and homegrown plotters still in the mix — is America actually safer from foreign terrorists than it was after 9/11?
Rob Fazio’s father, Ronald C. Fazio Sr., worked the 99th floor of the South Tower. Coworkers last saw him holding the stairwell door so others could get out. He died in the attack. Rob turned that last act into Hold the Door for Others — a charity built on post-traumatic growth, not just grief — as the 25th anniversary of 9/11 approaches.
Grant Stinchfield with Ben Bergquam, Col. Rob Maness, and Rob Fazio.
Crossings are at historic lows and ICE is pulling known terror suspects off the street — so is America safer today from foreign terrorists, or are we one plot away from forgetting 9/11 all over again?
