PAUL RYAN, HOUSE GOP LEADERS SET THE STAGE FOR COMING CAVE TO Newly elected House Speaker Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI)58% is setting the stage this week to cave to President Barack Obamaâs efforts to resettle thousands of Syrian refugees across America, even in the wake of the Paris terrorist attacks.
On Wednesday afternoon at 4 p.m. ET, the House Rules Committee will meet to prepare a bill from House Homeland Security Committee chairman Rep. Mike McCaul (R-TX) that doesnât end up stopping Syrian refugee resettlement in America. Sources Congress-wide confirm to Breitbart News that McCaulâs bill leaves the entire refugee program unchanged and doesnât affect funding for the program.
The bill number is H.R. 4038 and its title is the American SAFE Act of 2015. âSAFEâ stands for âSecurity Against Foreign Enemies,â and McCaul has billed the legislation in the headline of a House Homeland Security Committee press release as an act that would âProtect Americans from ISIS.â
âAmerica has a proud tradition of welcoming refugees into our country, and we lead the world in humanitarian assistance. However, we also must put proper measures in place to ensure our countryâs safety,â McCaul said.
The bill requires the nationâs top security officialsâthe Secretary of Homeland Security, the Director of the FBI, and the Director of National Intelligenceâto certify before admitting any Syrian or Iraqi refugee into the United States that the individual does not represent a security threat. I sent a letter to President Obama on Monday calling for a temporary suspension of Syrian refugee admissions until a full review of the resettlement program, including vetting security risks, could be completed.

The Republican majority is just freakin’ AWESOME!!
I see some people are still calling collaboration “caving”. It’s not that Ryan is afraid, but that he is their friend (especially of people like Gutierrez).
So what happens if a Syrian refugee/terrorist knocks out a theatre or mall?
Does the administration get put on double secret probation?
RINORyan.
Paul Ryan knows Obama will do nothing to protect Americans from being murdered by these people on our own soil.
Yet he steps aside and does nothing. As a great line in popular culture says, “with great power comes great responsibility.”
Are you going to let the burglar run by you, Paul?
And so much for the Freedumb Cawcus.
So far I am not impressed with this guy at all. Even when he sort of says the right thing, he sounds weak.

B.L.O.A.T., and use it. The Government will not protect you. You have to protect all that is yours, and that means you have to be ready to do everything for yourselves.
I say we send them the body parts. Put them on THEIR homes’ lawns, THEIR doorsteps, THEIR offices. Send THEM the entrails. Make THEM smell the rot. Have THEIR staffers unfold the blood soaked towels.
Make THEM own it.
III%
somehow I cannot quite imagine our elected officials like Paul Ryan doing that. :-)
GREAT post!!!
Not Funding it is the only way to stop it
Does the administration get put on double secret probation?
Bush's fault.
Every failure of the GOP gets us closer to President Trump.

Even worse, it sounds like they would make a mockery of the process and just use a preprinted form and rubber stamp every jihadi soldier as they come in.
