“Piker has faced criticism for past comments, including remarks that America deserved the Sept. 11 attacks that he later said he regretted. On the eve of the primary, El-Sayed once again campaigned with Piker, which Republicans pointed to as evidence of a broader ideological extremism.”

Who the fuck says something like that. 20 years ago during the war on terror you would have been water boarded for that.

"'It's really not that big of a problem for inbound,' said Lavarah Miller, a CBP watch commander on duty when CBC News toured a brand new American port of entry facility at the newly opened Gordie Howe International Bridge. 'A lot of the stuff that we actually get, we get a lot of it going out.'"
