GOP Congressman: “We Know” There Are ISIS Camps Just Across The Border In Mexico

Republican Rep. Matt Salmon of Arizona said “we know” that there are ISIS camps in Mexico within eight miles of the United States.

Salmon made the claim on Sean Hannity’s radio program during a discussion about a drug tunnel found in Naco, Arizona.
“And we don’t have a clue, have they done any investigation to determine whether foreign agents of terrorism have used the tunnel to get into the United States. We know there are ISIS camps…,” Salmon told Hannity in response to a a question about if the tunnel had been tested for biological or chemical weapons.

“Eight miles,” interjected Hannity.

“That’s right, within 8 miles,” said Salmon. “Do we know that any of them didn’t come across? Now, the president grandstands, he did during the discussion about Homeland Security when we were trying to defund his illegal amnesty plan. He grandstanded about how we were jeopardizing national security, and is this the way they conduct national security? On a wink and a nod? And they either knew about it, which one of their folks says they did, and order people not to be near it, for reasons I can only assume, and they’re not the best of assumptions.”

All those guns are supposed to protect us, right? So if this bullshit claim is true (which it isn't) then they should be marching their way to Naco, Arizona post-haste!!
