Only two of those in that decade were attacks on US soil, compared to the Boston Marathon; Fort Hood; Garland, Texas; Chattanooga, Tenn; the Orlando nightclub; the "underwear bomber"; the failed Times Square car bombing; and many more attacks overseas.

It's not clear how interrogations by border police could possibly have helped with any of the ones you mentioned.

Of course not, those are the attacks that none of the existing security measures prevented.

More domestic terrorists (and rattling off examples doesn't really constitute proof of that theory) don't show the necessity of draconian border control.
