Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-Calif.) made a pretty extraordinary claim on Fox News this week, telling a national television audience on Tuesday night that 10 Islamic State militants were caught entering the United States through the Mexican border. The far-right congressman was categorical: Hunter said in no uncertain terms that this has already happened, but "there's nobody talking about it."...Hmm. Hunter has no proof, but he has a source he won't identify, who gave him information that literally no one else can verify, about an important claim unsupported by facts.
