DHS Secretary Mullin says Iran Tried To Smuggle Operatives Into US With World Cup Team
Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin is claiming the Iranian government tried to sneak people with “direct ties” to its Islamic Revolutionary Guard into the U.S. along with its World Cup soccer team.
Asked if Iranian refugees were doing so at the direction of the IRGC on this weekend’s edition of “Sunday Morning Futures,” he said that wasn’t the only example of the republic’s attempts at deception.
“We’re also seeing this with the games they’re playing with FIFA,” Mullin claimed, telling Fox News host Maria Bartiromo that the U.S. denied over half of the Iranian team’s 100-plus person World Cup envoy entry to the U.S. from their training base in Tiajuana, Mexico.
“So these games that Iran plays makes them an adversary that you can’t trust,” he said.
Saying that “no one knows that better” than President Donald Trump, Mullin told Bartiromo: “Everything that we do will be verified and not assumed.”
