Mika: Feds’ Own Data Disputes Trump Admin’s Claims that Terrorists Are Crossing the Southern Border

EXCERPT:

BRZEZINSKI: "No. The government’s data, own data, disputes that. NBC News has obtained Customs and Border Protection data provided to Congress in May of 2018. It found only six non-U.S. citizens who or residents in the terror database were encountered by CBP at the southern border in the first half of the year. In fact, the number was greater on the northern border where the data shows 91 people were stopped, including 41 who were not American citizens or residents. Again, the Trump Administration — nice tweet this morning — said thousands were the number, when according to government data is actually six. The data was the latest set on this topic provided to Congress. It is possible that the data was updated since that time, but not provided to Congress."
