Bureaucrats at the State Department brought in an additional 526 refugees in the seventeen hours between midnight and 5 p.m. eastern on Thursday. The continued inflow is a bureaucratic challenge against President Trump’s campaign promise to temporarily ban refugees from Syria and other countries hostile to the United States.
Press reports on Tuesday said Trump was expected to sign an executive order announcing a four-month temporary ban on refugees from all countries, starting some time this week.
An additional executive order, reports indicated, is expected to block visas from seven Middle Eastern countries: Syria, Sudan, Somalia, Yemen, Libya, Iran, and Iraq.

Lock them up for violating the President’s directives.
#LOCK THEM UP.
Therein seems to be the immediate problem. There doesn't appear to be a Presidential directive, lots of rhetoric, but not an actual order. As Trump's team continue to draft/refine whatever the Executive Order, thousands of refugees are being rushed into the US. There should be, as a minimum, an immediate cease and desist order that stops all transportation of refugees until the EO is issued.
Indeed. Guarantee the Terrorist in Chief hand picked more than a few of the truly bad ones to slip in under the wire.
These people are as hard to fire as teachers in the NEA.
Our governor said no more refugees a few months ago and the leftists kept them coming under the wire.
This is leftist employment.
In violation of executive order?
“Bureaucrats brought them in??” Sounds like some are desperate to get in while the getting is good.
Firing them is too good. I’d say arrested for ignoring the law.
Trump needs to read the Riot Act to the transportation companies bringing these parasites
I believe the President can fire anyone in the executive branch at whim. He doesn't have to have a good reason.
No doubt this was the doing of those few that left.
Whether they were fired or they quit, they gave the one finger salute while walking out the door.
Similar to how Obama brought in El Chapo.
I would fire them, and then I would send a directive to the Justice Department to prosecute them for anything for which they can possibly be prosecuted. The message needs to go out that you cross me at great peril to yourself.
The more the better and the sooner the better......
We are supposed to get another “Syrian” family from Jordan but it has been held up.
Maybe we should focus on fixing the Syrian problem instead of helping people vacate the place.
Exactly. The State Department has been a nest of commies since, at the very least, the FDR Administration. It draws its upper echelons from the Ivy League, which is also extremely Leftist.
What Donald needs to do is shit can these bureaucrats now. Maybe he can’t fire them outright, but he can suspend them, relieve them of their duty temporarily and temporarily put his people in to stop this crap and make sure it is not 527 they let in. Because they are going to do this crap as long as they are allowed.
The head of Catholic Charities in Maine Refugee Resettlement is whining that because of Trump policies, they may have to close.
They should have closed years ago, but instead brought some of the most difficult people of the world to this impoverished state. Refugee Resettlement is another word for middle class social worker jobs program.
Is this why all the State Dept staff were fired yesterday?
Doubt it. They have been doing this every day since the Inauguration and those that were fired yesterday are only a small fraction of the State Department senior management, despite the lurid headlines.
My dad had worked with State Dept. personnel over the years and he said that Dept. is FULL of a bunch of Commie RATS!!!
