More than 350,000 refugees in the United States are on food stamps, according the Congressional Research Service (CRS).

Single Hispanic moms and those fearing gang violence also deserve asylum in the US.

Immigration agency: Single Hispanic females deserve asylum in U.S.

Haven't heard a word of objection raised by Republican leadership. The asylum program is beyond a bad joke. Obama's gang will accept most any made up lie and as deserving refugee status. Deliberately flooding the US with Third Worlders using, or misusing, every program available.

The NWO and UN proxies want global Marxism. Period. I used to not believe all the Alex Jones stuff, but I think it’s obvious now.

Youtube the Caravan To Midnight episode 250, with Patrick Woods. He has done an astonishing amount of work and revealed the agenda under which all these global changes are being made. The technocratic age is the wet dream of Brzezinski and David Rockefeller, as they proposed the Trilateral Commission at a 1972 Bilderberg meeting. The globalist scheme is aligned with the principles detailed in Brzezinski’s book.
