State Dept. sets single-day record for Syrian refugee approvals, renewing security fears
washington times ^ | 5/24/2016 | Stephen Dinan

The State Department admitted 80 Syrian refugees on Tuesday and 225 on Monday, setting a new single-day record, as President Obama surges to try to meet his target of 10,000 approvals this year — sparking renewed fears among security experts who say corners are being cut to meet a political goal.

Officials insisted they’re moving faster because they’re getting better at screening, and say they’re still running all the traps on applicants.

But the new spike in numbers is stunning, with more people accepted on Monday alone than were approved in the entire months of January or February.

It gets worse...the Dept. of Labor is allocating millions of taxpayer dollars for high tech job training for refugee teenagers...teaching them to make drones of all things.


I shake my head.

I believe demos would lose votes if we tell welfare recipients over and over that we’re going to have to cut welfare benefits because Obama is giving away all the money to refugees and illegals. We’re broke. We don’t have it to give anymore.

And these muzzies will cost us so much more than the average welfare recipient because of security concerns.

This is a dangerous, sick man in there. He needs to be stopped more than ever now but there is no one (still) to stand up to him.

San/Bernardino Muslim terrorist, Tashfeen Malik, had her K-1 fiancee visa approved even though:
(1) she openly posted about committing violent jihad on social media,
(2) gave a falsified Pakistani street address, and,
(3) was a Pakistani migrating from Saudi Arabia (an unusual living arrangement for a single Muslim woman).

Malik was screened by (1) US Homeland Security officials, (2) the US State Department, (3) a third screening after applying for a green card, the NY Times reported.

Homeland Security seeks $41.2 billion budget for 2016
February 4, 2015 By BioPrepWatch Reports

Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson announced a $41.2 billion budget request Monday for the 2016 fiscal year.

The budget would improve the unity of effort at the department, Johnson said, focusing on harmonizing DHS business processes. Along with the budget, a new Common Appropriations Structure was also submitted to Congress, which would standardize financial planning, programming and budgets for all DH agencies, Johnson said.

There are five areas the department focuses on each year, and the budget is in alignment with those five missions, Johnson said.

<><> The first mission is to prevent terrorism and enhance security in the country by implementing security for the land, air and at sea.

<><> The next mission is to secure and manage the countrys borders, and reduce the number of illegal immigrants and amount of contraband getting into the United States.

<><> The third mission includes enforcing and administering immigration laws and providing safe and secure detention of illegal immigrants in federal custody if they are a flight risk or a public safety concern.

<><> The fourth mission deals with safeguarding and securing cyberspace, which impacts economic security. The 2016 budget would invest in technology and staff to reduce cybercrime and improve the security of federal network defenses.

<><> The fifth mission, Johnson said, is to strengthen national preparedness and resilience so the country can prepare and respond to any type of disaster.

Johnson said before Congress approves any funding for the next fiscal year lawmakers should approve funding for the current year.

The Presidents FY 2016 Budget provides the resources necessary for the Department of Homeland Security to further strengthen our efforts to fulfill our wide-ranging missions, while also being agile and vigilant in the face of ever-evolving threats and recent world events, Johnson said. But prior to acting on the FY 2016 Budget, I urge Congress to fully fund DHS for the rest of this fiscal year, as the current continuing resolution is disruptive, creates uncertainty, and impedes efficient resource planning and execution.

This “refugee” admittance is going to create an internal war...

When things start happening, we are going to start finding a whole lot of Muslims in alleys and ditches....

As things escalate, it will get to that and Americans can only be pushed so far....

Of all the issues facing this country, and THIS is a priority? I mean America would do just fine if these ‘refugees’ never set foot in this country.

So, how many people were assigned to processing these applications? Sounds like a rubber stamp operation.

Obama is such a Muzzie traitor.

Still, on liberal sites... they think he’s brilliant and wonderful. How can they be so blind?

It’s pathetic.

I hope they are all voted out of office.

I am afraid you are correct. It sure would be better if we can get someone into WashDC that will reverse the problem and repatriate the ones who’ve already gotten in here, ASAP

Flop house America...We don't care if you don't like Muslims, we don't care if millions of you are unemployed or underemployed, we don't care if there is not enough housing, enough resources, enough water, electricity generation, we don't care if your roads are jammed and damaged, or not enough schools and funding to pay for these foreigners, we don't even care if your borders are violent and lawless, punitive trade laws which benefit every except Middle America, nearly 20 trillion in a spiraling debt of death.

Trumps shuts down this loser leadership, or we lose our country.

Money, why not send it there to keep them there? I’m more worried about them setting a date and time to begin the end of peace in our land.

All of the 499 Syrians who have been granted refugee status in the US thus far this month are Muslims, the CNSNews service reports; not a single Christian has been granted that status.

Since the beginning of the current fiscal year, the US has admitted 2,235 Syrian refugees, of whom only 10— less than one-half of 1%— have been Christians.

Before the start of Syria’s current civil war, about 10% of the country’s population was Christian. Although accurate figures are now difficult to obtain because of the continuing bloodshed and disorder, a very large proportion of the country’s Christians have been forced to leave their homes.

We could have kept most of them safe over there. Instead, we supported the terrorists overthrowing their governments. In Syria, we supplied terrorists with weapons.
