Welcome back!
Not so well, it seems:
“Of the 814,073 people charged by DHS in immigration courts during the past three years, 12 faced charges of terrorism, TRAC said.
Those 12 cases represent 0.0015 percent of the total number of cases filed.
“The DHS claims it is focused on terrorism. Well that’s just not true,” said David Burnham, a TRAC spokesman. “Either there’s no terrorism, or they’re terrible at catching them. Either way it’s bad for all of us.”"
Time to re-focus, methinks. If the first claim is true, I wonder what all the fuss is about?

12 cases – that should be enough to make a second 9/11…

You might want to see what qualifies as a terrorist nowadays:

Anything will do as long as it supports the government policy and upholds the threat.
