Appearing on ABC's "This Week," McCaul was asked by host Martha Raddatz, "What about here in the homeland...what do we really have to do?" [...]

Appearing with McCaul, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, agreed that "we certainly have resource challenges, but we are fortunate that we don't have anywhere near the number of foreign fighters to track that Europe does." ...

How about we stop the threat before they enter the country?

Again?
Didn’t they already do that three times today?

In a rut, I’d say.

I suggest the FBI doesn't get any money until Hillary is indicted by Loretta Lynch.

If not, these "heros" can pound sand.

I think Obama and his Turkish and Saudi friends need to first stop using and tacitly supporting ISIS for their strategic ends.

Get rid of DHS - completely.

Merge DEA and ATFE into the FBI.

Split internal intelligence out of FBI into it’s own Bureau under the DCI.

Jail everyone in DC.... hehehe

How about we defund the whole damned bunch of them and turn it over to the people, not AA hires?

They are not worried about the threats entering. That isn’t the main concern of Homeland.

IMHO - Forming the DHS is one of George ‘Dubya’ Bush’s biggest sins against America - second only to his signing of the Patriot Act itself.

Wide open borders, TSA’s 95% failure rate, and a citizenry afraid to profile. What could go wrong?

If Israel ran their country like we do ours,
they’d have ceased to exist long ago.

The FBI wouldn’t take the ATFE. For decades every chowderhead who couldn’t cut it in the FBI has been transferred over there.

Until the “refugees” decide to do something about those “lifetimes” with respect to shortening them.

“...not AA hires...”

There was an FBI recruiting booklet with three folks on the front and three on the back cover and not one was a White male.

When Hoover was in charge The FBI busted all the most notorious gangs and intercepted Soviet agents. Then it was criticized for going after the Pretty Boy Floyds but leaving organized crime alone. But the nature of the Mafia is that it is more vulnerable to tax investigations via the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Tax and the IRS.

If we stopped importing millions of these Muslim fanatics we wouldn’t have to worry so much about them killing us. They could just kill each other “over there”.

Shame on you! TSA does a wonderful job!

Of making sure nobody carries more that 3.5 oz. of skin lotion or sneaks a CPAP machine on a flight without testing it for explosives. < / sarcasm >

"...we are fortunate that we don't have anywhere near the number of foreign fighters to track that Europe does."

This statement on its face should give everyone pause...it's an admission that they know there are "foreign fighters" in the USA and that they're most likely, letting more in.

BLOAT

I got a crazy idea. Lets not bring them here and then have to spy domestically to protect us.
