Eric Ham: Border issues a potential derailment to CUSMA extension

Recent testimony by FBI Director Kash Patel before the House Oversight Committee offers a window into what could be the central issue to potentially see the United States withdraw from Canada-U.S.-Mexico Free Trade agreement (CUSMA).

Responding to a question about the risk of terrorism posed by illegal border crossings from the north, Patel said that while there has been a drop in suspected terrorist crossings from the southern border, there has been an increase in crossings from the north.

The MAGA firebrand stated, “we need more focus on the northern border” suggesting terrorists are originating from China, Russia, the Middle East, and Africa.
