WASHINGTON — President Obama, under increasing pressure to demonstrate that the United States is joining European nations in the effort to resettle Syrian refugees, has told his administration to take in at least 10,000 displaced Syrians over the next year.

At a briefing at the White House on Thursday, the press secretary, Josh Earnest, said the United States would “accept at least 10,000 refugees in the next fiscal year,” which begins Oct. 1.

Who cares what Trump thinks. Happening now. 10,000? Yeah. Right.
“Oxfam America has called on the U.S. to resettle 70,000 Syrian refugees. The International Rescue Committee has urged the U.S. to resettle 65,000 Syrian refugees before the end of 2016.”

Trump may castigate the Mexican illegal aliens (good), but he has spoken in favor of accepting these murderous terrorists.

Check your newspaper or other source of up-to-date information. DT has now altered his initial off-the-cuff remarks.

Put them ALL in DC..!!!

[faithhopecharity]

there is apparently no limit on how much sabotage the American Congress and American people will let O perpetrate on USA

no limit at all, as he’s moved hundreds of thousands of young military -age men from IslamoNazi countries into USA, from sea to shining sea

TTTT!

Thanks for the acronym. This thing took time for me to figure out.



(Well...search engine it.)

Trump is for bringing in more muslims? I wouldn’t be surprised. Even he knows muslims are off limits.

This is treason.

Trump supported the same thing.

Let's say only 1 in 10 of these Muslims are ISIS foot soldiers. That's another 1,000 ISIS killers who can carry out massive carnage right here at home.

This will not work out well for real Americans. It will work out well for ISIS and 0bama.

So, for all the Muslims hold-outs in the world that would be more akin to taking in ‘their own’, the U.S. decides to IMPORT 15k+ possible terrorists/fanatics?

No OTHER Muslim country wants ‘em they’ve got to be shipped 1/2 ‘round the world??

[Truth29]

10,000? I bet it will be a multiple of that and the true number will be disguised as the enemy invaders are placed all over the US. Obama could really blow up the country in his last year by making it look like Europe now. Why not 100,000? or for that matter, why not some unnamed number that even his devout supporters would find shocking?

[VerySadAmerican]

What has Trump said about muslims?

[Old Yeller]

Syrian refugees = ISIS combatants

[jsanders2001]

Someone please stop this f$#%€r

[longtermmemmory]

how many of those will be Christians who are being persecuted?

How many intact families?

Migration is a jihad tactic.

Trojan Jihadists.

The key words in the article are “at least”. It won’t be 10,000 but more like 100,000.
