“Some counterterrorism experts say that such rhetoric can be used by militant groups to recruit, and will alienate Muslim communities whose help is needed to prevent violence.”

This almost boilerplate screed (c : a ranting piece of writing) is so ridiculous that I can’t understand why the left doesn’t realize how STUPID that statement is.

Like it will be OUR fault that terrorists become terrorists.

Secondly, like Muslim communities are helping us NOW! You mean they will what, cut back on their nonexistent support?

I am sick and tired of seeing this canard being used over and over again to try and influence the low information voters,

canard:
a : a false or unfounded report or story; especially : a fabricated report
b : a groundless rumor or belief

Fits to a T. (as in Tittle)

Some career officials said they feared the incoming Trump administration may be looking to undo the work that the Obama administration has done on countering violent extremism.

I guess these hand-picked Obama administration guys w/ top US security clearance are living in absolute fear (sob).

Arif Alikhan, assistant secretary of Homeland Security for policy development;

Mohammed Elibiary, a member of the Homeland Security
Advisory Council (ousted for using his home computer
to tap into a Texas State and Local Intelligence Community database
;

Rashad Hussain, the U.S. special envoy to the Organization of the Islamic Conference;

Salam al-Marayati, co-founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC);

Imam Mohamed Magid, president of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA);

Eboo Patel, a member of President Obama's Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships.

==================================================

Estimates range from several thousand to approximately eight million Islamic fighters inside the United States as we type. The exact number is unknown. Just 19 Islamic fighters and hijackers in the US on extended visas killed almost three thousand people on 9/11. One has to believe the worst case scenario----that nearly eight million are already here....and being welcomed (and hired) by Obama. Obama gave 5 MILLION federal hires Obama top security clearance.

========================================================

Cong Michelle Bachman says the FBI told her Americans who joined ISIS are allowed back in the US.

===============================================

-Back in October 2011 one of the most astute lawmen in Washington, Cong Louis Gohmert (Repub-TX), a former judge, questioned then-DHS Secy Janet Napolitano about Mohamed Elibiary, a member of the Department of Homeland Security Council (DHS) with a high level security clearance.

Elibiary allegedly accessed, illegally, from his home computer, a Texas State and Local Intelligence Community database.....(Elibiary was ousted from the Homeland Security Advisory Council for shady activities---and settled in Texas).

Napolitano managed to unglue her lips from Obama's behind---and told Cong Gohmert she knew nothing about it, and that she would "personally" do the investigation. (waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

Hey Reuters: A transition team’s job is to identify personnel in critical positions, find out what they are about, determine what they are doing, and evaluate the value of missions and how to best use resources in the future. Bumbling blindly into office, would be incompetent and negligent, though not without precedent.

Does Trump-hate prevent you from believing Trump is too incompetent to run a proper transition, forcing you to exclude the obvious explanation in favor of a conspiracy theory?

Prior to Obama the previous 20 years had appointments made by 2 Bushes and a Clinton - the whole thing is rotten top to bottom, not just the Obama appointments.

We haven’t had a remotely honest person in office since Reagan, which is no small part of why we have the government we have today.

One brilliant reason is to prevent any government worker with Leftist ambitions from doing anything illegal or unethical these last few says of the Obama administration.

Trump wants NAMES. You government hacks are not immune after all!

LET them wonder as to what Trump is up to, with all the worry that entails...

Yes it does. Also, they're not nearly as smart as they think they are.

He is learning about and responding to well-funded domestic programs that very few on this site would believe exist. Pray for his safety every day.

Study paragraph five; now proceed to explain exactly what the Obama administration has done on countering violent extremism.
Fake news!

...Some career officials said they feared the incoming administration may be looking to undo the “WORK” that the Obama administration has done on countering violent extremism...

That’s one reason why November 8th happened.

Well I was good for 75 but the last 5 have shown the wear and tear of the 75 previous
Trump would be 78 and the way he goes the 70-74 will be grueling

Trump is coming through like you can’t believe.

To think Rush fought Trump’s nomination for so many months.
I’ll always find that unbelievable.

Perhaps Lt. Col. Matthew Dooley will be vindicated?

You will recall that LTC Dooley was relieved of his duties as an instructor at the National Defense University in 2011 and forced to retire:

Perhaps the truth of Islam will be revealed under President Trump?
