The Department of Homeland Security has operated a program to monitor ordinary Americans' social media discussions about the agency's policy directives, even though it had in place another policy prohibiting agents from checking visa applicants' social media accounts for possible signs of terrorist leanings.
The agency's policy against vetting visa applicants was revealed on Monday by John Cohen, a former DHS under-secretary for intelligence and analysis.

Ping.
Like the communist Demmies like to say, Americans are the greatest threat to national security.
just another example of the administration doing everything it can to protect muslims and to attack US citizens

Ayo Kimathi, an acquisitions officer for Immigration and Customs Enforcement who is in charge of buying weapons and ammunition for the government, operates the website named “War on the Horizon.” It includes descriptions of an “unavoidable, inevitable clash with the white race.”

Truly our political/media class is utterly stupid and incompetent
I so love the Obamunists. Foreigners have some sort of expectation of privacy, while American citizens do not. As if the Constitution was written for non-US citizens.
Thought so
If Obama is a Marxist and wants the downfall of America his actions are totally logical and wildly successful.
No they are complicit in allowing Obama overthrow our Constitutional Government and replace it with Sharia Law.
It is time to revolt and not at the ballot box. We cannot wait a year. I agree with Trump on this.
The answer is B. He is a Marxist and seeks to destroy our nation.
Rush read from it on 12/15/15 show; why isn’t Trump reading from it? Why isn’t Cruz? This is campaign ad material and stump speech material (actually, if it is used in a stump speech, we may not hear about it depending on where it is).
And just to make sure that the NSA isn't still listening, try it over the phone.
Then you would know for sure.
We are becoming expert at locking the barn door after the horses have been stolen.
