For months, conservatives have warned that our porous immigration system poses a clear and present danger to American families. While the administration obsesses over diversity quotas and sanctuary cities, the very terrorists who orchestrated massacres abroad are finding their way onto American soil.
The October 7 attacks on Israel shocked the civilized world with their barbarity, yet somehow those who participated in this modern-day pogrom have been attempting to enter our homeland. Now, after a jaw-dropping arrest that proved every conservative warning correct, the House of Representatives has taken decisive action to protect Americans from these monsters. Finally—FINALLY—someone in Washington gets it.
From ‘The Daily Wire’:
McClintock’s bill takes direct aim at anyone who “carried out, participated in, planned, financed, afforded material support to or otherwise facilitated” the brutal rampage Hamas launched on October 7, 2023, a massacre that left more than 1,200 Israelis—children, infants, seniors—slaughtered for the crime of being Jewish. The bill explicitly includes members of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and it arrives with 18 Republican co-sponsors, including Reps. Joe Wilson (R-SC), Claudia Tenney (R-NY), and Ann Wagner (R-MO).
The “No Immigration Benefits for Hamas Terrorists Act of 2025,” led by Representative Tom McClintock (R-CA), passed the House by voice vote without a single objection—a rare moment of bipartisan clarity in Washington. Even Democrats, who typically obstruct any meaningful border security measures, couldn’t bring themselves to publicly defend terrorists’ rights to enter America. This unanimous passage sends an unmistakable message: those who participated in the October 7 atrocities will find no sanctuary on American soil.
A Clear and Present Danger
The timing of this bill couldn’t be more critical. Federal prosecutors recently arrested Mahmoud Amin Ya’qub al-Muhtadi, a Gaza-born operative who helped coordinate the October 7 attacks before strolling into America on a fraudulent visa. Get this: This butcher’s phone pinged an Israeli cell tower during the massacre. He sent messages instructing attackers to “bring the rifles” and “get ready.” Yet somehow, he made it through Dallas-Fort Worth Airport in 2024 and was later discovered working at a Louisiana restaurant.
Let me repeat that: a restaurant. In Louisiana.
This mind-blowing security failure proves what conservatives have been saying all along: our immigration system is broken beyond repair. While Democrats lecture us about being “welcoming” and “inclusive,” actual Hamas thugs are exploiting these feel-good policies to infiltrate our communities. How many more al-Muhtadis are already here, blending into American society while harboring violent hatred for our values and our allies? The thought should keep every American up at night.
Democrats’ Dangerous Hesitation
Even in unanimous passage, Democrats revealed their mind-boggling blindness. Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) argued that existing laws already bar Foreign Terrorist Organization members, essentially claiming this new legislation was unnecessary. (There’s always a “but” with these people, isn’t there?)
McClintock demolished this feeble excuse with a simple historical parallel: “Does anyone seriously argue that we should repeal the sanctions against persons who aided and abetted the Nazis’ Holocaust? If not, why oppose extending the same sanctions to the Nazis’ would-be modern-day successors?”
The fact that Democrats even hesitated, quibbling over technicalities while killers literally walk among us, shows how far the party has drifted from common-sense national security. They claim existing laws are sufficient, yet al-Muhtadi’s arrest proves otherwise. Here’s the kicker: If current laws worked, why was a Hamas coordinator serving lunch specials in Lafayette?
The math is simple here.
The bill now moves to the Senate, where its earlier version languished under Democrat obstruction. With President Trump back in office and Republicans controlling the narrative on national security, senators who block this legislation will have to explain to voters why they’re comfortable with October 7 butchers entering America. This isn’t about politics—it’s about preventing another massacre on American soil. The House has done its job. Now it’s time for the Senate to stand with our Israeli allies and protect American families from those who celebrate the slaughter of innocents.
Key Takeaways
• House unanimously passed bill blocking October 7 terrorists from entering America
• Gaza-born Hamas operative infiltrated U.S. despite coordinating massacre
• Democrats supported bill but questioned its necessity, exposing dangerous naivety
• Senate must act immediately to close immigration loopholes terrorists exploit
