Trump Blames Schumer and Immigration Policies Hours After New York Terrorist Attack
The New York Times ^ | NOV. 1, 2017 | PETER BAKER

Posted on 11/01/2017 9:50:02 AM PDT by detective

President Trump on Wednesday essentially blamed the terrorist attack in New York City on what he characterized as soft immigration policies promoted by Democrats, singling out Senator Chuck Schumer, the state’s senior lawmaker and the party’s leader in the upper chamber.

"Senator Charles E. Grassley, Republican of Iowa and chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said the panel had been told Mr. Saipov had indeed entered the United States on a diversity visa. In a letter to the heads of the State Department and Homeland Security, Mr. Grassley requested biographical information on Mr. Saipov, including his immigration history, criminal record and any records of terrorism-related activities."

The Muslim terrorist killed 8 and injured 11. According to the counter terrorist expert from the NYPD, "He appears to have followed almost exactly to a 'T' the instructions that ISIS has put out in its social media channels before with instructions to their followers on how to carry out such an attack."

He was part of ISIS and yelled "Allahu Akbar" during the attack.

Schumer and the Democrats are fighting to keep the "diversity visa" program under which he entered the U.S.

Trump gets it right. The NYT and Schumer throw hissy fits.

There is nothing more important than diversity to the democrats.

And when I say "diversity" I mean more progressive voters.

Those eight people dead? Just the price that needs to be paid for Democrat Power.

Trump should call Ryan over with cameras running. Ask for legislation to end the diversity program be put on his desk in a week. Get everyone on record.

Trump is right to do this. Political Correctness is killing us in many ways and it must be exposed for what it is doing.

Right- The murderer didn’t show up in the US and then 20 minutes later familiarize himself with the area enough to kill 8 people...

This didn’t happen overnight... It’s been a long time coming. That means the US vetting process doesn’t work

It is the result of soft immigration policies. The Immigration situation in this country allows foreigners to enter, to live in isolated communities with others like themselves, to learn just the barest smidgen of our language, and to continue on in their virtual native culture. So, this garbage about their being homegrown and radicalized here is a serious error. They are not assimilating into our culture if they are living in isolated Islands of their prior culture and being radicalized in them.

I just noticed that between Mueller’s ho-hum indictments and this terrorist attack, Uranium One and the DNC and Clinton paying for the pee per dossier are no longer in the news.

When libs wanted to ban bump stocks, the simple question was “would it have prevented what happened”? The answer was no. Now the answer for elimination of the immigration lottery is... YES. This scumbag would not have been in the US to murder Americans if not for this legislation.

The left is totally politicized. It’s time we stepped up and started returning fire.

Immigration without assimilation is colonization.

“This didn’t happen overnight... It’s been a long time coming. That means the US vetting process doesn’t work.”

It also means that the next attack coming in (Name Your State/Place) is already in the dry-run/rehearsal phase.

There is no doubt in my Military Mind over this. None.
