Feds Blame “Lapse in Vetting” for Admitting Syrian Refugees with Terrorist Ties into U.S.
Judicial Watch ^ | 01/26/17 | na

Posted on 01/28/2017 11:26:06 AM PST by ForYourChildren

Dozens of Syrian refugees already living in the Unites States may have ties to terrorism and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is downplaying it, claiming federal agents missed “possible derogatory information” about the immigrants due to “a lapse in vetting.” Among those who slipped through the cracks is a man who failed a polygraph test after applying to work at a U.S. military installation and another who communicated with an Islamic State leader.

..”Obama let thousands settle in the U.S. his own intelligence and immigration officials admitted that individuals with ties to terrorist groups used the program to try to infiltrate the country and that there is no way to properly screen them. “

Okay fine. Now do your job and round them up, put them in detention while they await deportation, then we might think you are being sincere.

Miguel Antonio Azcona pleaded guilty recently to a single count of theft of government funds.....running a NJ food stamps-for-cash scheme that cost the government more than $800,000 over two years. Law enforcement officials estimate $20,000 a month in food stamps was moving through the market. Authorities say the market charged fake sales to the cards to get money out of the recipients’ state accounts. DHS officials have not yet calculated the losses of the long-running fraud

It was as authorities began to look into the store's wire-transfers (remittances) that things got interesting. They all seemed to trace back to one or two accounts in Mexico City. Cooperating with Mexican Authorities, it soon became apparent exactly what the laundered money was being used to finance.

“Among the terror jihadists that travel back and forth through the porous southern border from Mexico into the US is a Kuwaiti named Shaykh Mahmood Omar Khabir, an ISIS operative who lives in the Mexican state of Chihuahua not far from El Paso, Texas,” authorities reported.

“Khabir trained hundreds of Al Qaeda fighters in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Yemen and has lived in Mexico for more than a year,” according to information provided to Judicial Watch by a source identified only as “a high-ranking Homeland security official in a border state.”

According to the intelligence, Khabir now provides training to thousands of jihadis – mostly from Syria and Yemen – at a base in near Ciudad Juarez, which is located just across the border from El Paso, Texas.

“Staking out U.S. targets is not difficult, and Khabir actually brags in an Italian newspaper article published last week that the border region is so open that he ‘could get in with a handful of men, and kill thousands of people in Texas or in Arizona in the space of a few hours.’”

Oh, excuse us, your nightclub got machine-gunned. Who’da thought?

Oh, sorry, your kid was shot 5 times. She probably didn’t suffer much before she died.

Mistakes were made. But we are conducting a review so that we can come up with guidelines to be sure this kind of thing does not recur. However, since we will never implement those guidelines because they would be discriminatory, you can go eat dogturds. Thank you for your cooperation.

Report: Homeland Security Officials Took Millions in Bribes
to 'Look the Other Way' on Drug Cartels; sold green cards illegally.

Townhall.com ^ | December 31, 2016 | Courtney O'Brien / FR Posted by jazusamo

A stunning case of corruption inside the Department of Homeland Security was overshadowed by headlines about Russia and Israel this past week. Yet, federal employees accepting millions of dollars in bribes to avoid doing their job, is certainly worth a look.

Hundreds of DHS employees have "looked the other way" as drugs crossed the border because cartels have made them offers they can't refuse.

Other DHS employees have sold green cards and other documents illegally.

More from The New York Times:

It was not an isolated case. A review by The New York Times of thousands of court records and internal agency documents showed that over the last 10 years almost 200 employees and contract workers of the Department of Homeland Security have taken nearly $15 million in bribes while being paid to protect the nation’s borders and enforce immigration laws.

In order to address the internal issues, the department has hired more investigators, offered ethics training and is administering polygraph tests to new applicants, The Times reports.

The Times report does not include the gifts, trips or money that DHS employees have stolen, the editors note.

Obama ignored the concerns of state governors and began delivering violent Third World malcontents, en masse to almost every state, a steady stream of Somali, Syrian, Afghan, Iraqi and Burmese Muslims.....not to mention the Central America crowd rife with communicable diseases.

All of them are sucking tax dollars off the backs of taxpayers, all of them voting Democrat (whether they know it or not).

============================================

The Syrian refugees currently flooding in will receive an initial stipend from the U.S. Office of Refugee Resettlement, a part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Taxpayers demand these stipends end immediately.

DHS agents and their administrators should be investigated and prosecuted if laws were broken.

“Lapse in vetting” - which means none at all was being done.

Now, even without any vetting at all, a few non-criminal and non-revolutionaries would get in, just by the law of averages. But an untold number of viciously criminal and rabidly revolutionary insurrectionists would then certainly be included in the total.

they’re all over ..inside USA today

many/most of them are VERY dangerous to Christians and Jews
too

they’re taught from birth to hate Christians and Jews, and to try to infiltrate and eventually seize control over us

they need to be returned, repatriated, deported ASAP!
France is going down the IslamoNazi sewer already, and several more European countries are following closely behind

DHS trying to put the blame on others as it willingly ignored Federal Laws and allowed terrorists to enter/remain in the country....I bet one of Trump’s bigger pet peeves is that of doing something wrong, and blaming someone else instead of correcting it....
