George Selim, a prominent Obama administration holdover known for engaging fringe Islamic radicals, has resigned from the Department of Homeland Security. Selim left his post as director of Countering Violent Extremism (CVE), a senior administration official who is not authorized to discuss personnel matters confirmed to Conservative Review Sunday.

The former DHS chief submitted his resignation Friday, following his testimony Thursday before the House Oversight Committee.

"The CVE program is seen as dangerous because its inherent political correctness disallows counter-terror analysts from observing whether there is a religious component to radical Islamic terrorism. Under President Obama, countless Muslim Brotherhood-connected groups shuffled in and out of the White House to stake their claims in the debate. These groups share an extremist, caliphatist worldview shared by the likes of ISIS and al-Qaida. While the well-intentioned Obama administration thought it was battling terror recruitment, its officials were arguably building a bridge to jihadism."

Muslim Jihadist and terrorist sympathizer from Obama administration resigns.

It's mind blowing. President Trump is famous for getting things done,getting the right people hired and the right people who absolutely need to be FIRED. For the life of me,I cannot understand how one Obama leftover is within a hundred feet of the White House let along still collecting a paycheck within Trump/GOP MAJORITY government that we the people subsidize.

The only thing these treasonous Swamp Scum do is take up space,uphold shadow government while undermining MAGA and POTUS Trump.

“Obama administration thought it was battling terror recruitment,”

No, it didn’t. It never, ever did. It set out to do EXACTLY what it did. And Barack Hussein Obama is at the very center of this attack on the United States.
