How long before we rise up, America?When it's too late.

Much like any criminal organization, the Obama administration will punish anyone who dares tell the outside world just what they’re up to. They’ll take your job, your reputation, and — in this sickening case — they’ll even try to take your daughter.
A Department of Homeland Security agent who blew the whistle on deliberately lax enforcement under a particular immigration program had just that happen to her. Now, she’s speaking out before Congress.
Taylor Johnson, a senior special agent with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, told the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs that she faced massive retribution after revealing irregularities in the EB-5 visa program.
The EB-5 visa grants green cards to foreigners who invest $500,000 in American companies. Johnson, an 11-year veteran of the ICE, told the committee that she found corruption and mismanagement that, in her words, posed “national security risks.”
“Some of the violations investigated surrounding the project included bank and wire fraud, and I discovered ties to organized crime and high-ranking politicians and they received promotions that appeared to facilitate the program,” Johnson said.
She had “discovered that EB-5 applicants from China, Russia, Pakistan, Malaysia had been approved in as little as 16 days.” In addition, case files “lacked the basic and necessary law enforcement queries.”
“I found over 800 operational EB-5 regional centers throughout the U.S.,” Johnson said, adding that this was odd because the United States should only allow 10,000 EB-5 visas per year...

Just like the NY Times in the 1930's when Walter Duranty reported on Stalin's USSR.
Yup...if you have “investment money” you get a green card, AND if you have a skill the U.S. is seeking (Doctor, R.N., etc.) you get a green card...immigration “pay for play” where you pay the gov’t. Other European would be emigrees not in these categories have to wait ten years for a visa to emigrate, most falling by the wayside. This doesn’t begin to offset the multitudes of no talent emigrees who just walk across the border and we “pay for their play” for generations. SIGH!
The federal and state bureaucracies must be brought to heel or this fascist crap will not end. The next president must begin to prosecute and jail bureaucrats for their illegal activities if they do not this monster will consume what is left of the country through their terror on the citizenry.
Any hint of independent citizens or lack of faith in the political-financial system calls into question the viability of the collateral assets of the 700T federal debt. If the collateral is not viable the basis of the debt and the currency issued by it comes into question.
This was reported on line in some form. Remember seeing an article pertaining a month+plus ago. A brave whistle-blower, she, and her life basically destroyed because she dared to speak against ValJar’s puppet Yes, we do resemble the Soviet Union...tho we’ve yet to adopt their new flag.
Bump
Got that on a bumper sticker?
Wonder how all the FR folks who proudly stayed home in 2012 because M Romney wasn’t Conservative enough are feeling today?
Not that I expect even one of the fools to admit their mistake.
“We” are not. If “we” were going to rise up, we would have risen long ago.
Anyone remember what happened to the TEA Party? Vilified by the democrat/communist media propaganda complex, crushed by the IRS.
No, but 1984 is just around the corner.

They feel the same way the millions who gave the Republicans the majority in the house and senate feel — Used by the establishment. I voted for Romney, but he would have given us Romneycare, not a repeal of Obamacare. This time, I’m not going to vote for a Republican just to make sure a Republican gets in. The Bush’s are hanging around the pedophile loving exPresident. I don’t want the Bushs or the Clintons.
How long before we rise up, America?When it's too late.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Only a Trump can root out this corruption.
I fear that Trump may be killed.
Who do you think got Jack Kennedy elected and who his father was associated with? The mob, that’s who.
What happened to this woman is beyond horrible. I am surprised she turned up at work. It is common practice when an employe leaves security will escort from premises and no related work matter will leave with them and keys, security pass; etc will be taken at that time. It’s called 86ing them. They don’t want you walking out with client lists or company plans; etc.
When pulp fiction becomes reality, it’s all but over.
Excellent sleuthing!
Thank you for the additional details.
The blatant corruption is sickening.
Apparently, when the cost will be higher than we can bear.
