Evening Edition: Foiled Terror Plot Underscores Border Security Concerns

Federal prosecutors in Oklahoma are building a case against Nasir
Ahmad Tawhedi, who is alleged to have planned a mass attack on
Election Day on behalf of the Islamic State terror Tawhedi did not
slip past border patrol in Texas; instead, he was invited and
transported to the U.S. by the government itself. He had previously
worked for the CIA and other entities in Afghanistan and was
evacuated with his family when the U.S. military withdrew in
September 2021. Was Tawhedi always a jihadist waiting for the
chance to strike? Investigators don't believe so. However, the
pressing question is why Tawhedi was not deemed a risk despite his
history with U.S. intelligence. Furthermore, does the current
immigration policy have loopholes that allowed him to evade
scrutiny? Adam Shaw, who covers immigration and border security for
FOX Digital, joins the FOX News Rundown: Evening Edition to analyze
Tawhedi's case and how it is once again raising questions about
America's immigration policies and our ability to vet anyone who
crosses into our country legally or illegally. Learn more about
