Deport this liar and thief back to Somalia. And the rest of them too!

Payoffs are a good guess.
Deport her….
Yes, but after putting her ass in prison for a couple decades first. I’d gladly support funding that!
Muslims do not care if they lie to infidels..............

If true, this fella has a point.
The wording sounds like POLITICAL GRANDSTANDING which is what political hacks call oversight.
I'm sick of incompetent, toothless "oversight" committees which come to nothing more than a tempest in a teapot.
Time for this ho to go home. We don’t need scumbag pork chops like her in our country. Greedy pig.
“Nothing will ever happen to her.”

That’s because Repukes will never prosecute her. And she knows it.
“I’m sick of incompetent, toothless “oversight” committees”

It’s all just a show to create the appearance of doing something.

EC

Immigration fraud
She’s a triple word score, she’s safe. She’s black, female and muslim. If anyone so much as THINKS of doing anything to her they’re racist, sexist, and an islamophobe.
