Bensman excerpt: Both (Yemeni migrants caught at the California border) were watch listed but one of them was on the No Fly list, which is a high bar of danger to get on that. Being on the watch list is bad enough. Being on the No Fly list is a big red alert, ring-the-bell, five-alarm national security fire. So this information goes out. You’ve got mug shots of these guys with the black bars over the eyes and a lot of detail. One of the interesting details in the press release was that one of them had a cell phone sim card hidden in the sole of his shoe. Luckily the FBI has it now and I’m sure is downloading it, but then, as this news began to spread on twitter and other social media platforms, by this morning CBP removed that press release. I don’t know why they removed the press release. It’s gone.
