A Donald Trump campaign spokeswoman sparred with a CNN anchor Monday over the process for vetting Syrian refugees, and when the journalist cited a fact-checking website’s assessment of the process the spokeswoman retorted, “We’re not going to base national security off PolitiFact, or even the United Nations.”
CNN’s Brianna Keilar questioned Trump spokeswoman Katrina Pierson about how the presumptive Republican candidate would like to change the existing process used to vet refugees ahead of resettlement in the U.S. In doing so, Keilar paraphrased an excerpt from a recent PolitiFact article, which examined Trump’s claim that there was “no system to vet” refugees from the Middle East, and determined it to be false. […]
“Here’s the thing,” Pierson said. “We’re not going to base national security off PolitiFact, or even the United Nations. We’re going to listen to our intelligence agencies like the CIA and the FBI who says those [vetting procedures] are worthless. Because many of these people don’t show up in these systems, simply because they are not on, on anyone’s — on anyone’s record. There is no way to vet these people now and that’s the problem.” …

Doing so has mangled our national security for decades.
Bwaahaa!! ZING!
Oh man, this woman is a rabid pit bull!! I sincerely hope she’s Trump’s WH Press Secretary! She will tear the media apart!!
How hard can it be.
Anyone who can’t be 99.99999% vetted does not get entry. Simply as that.
WTF is with people wanting to let every damn immigrant into this country?
How about people like VT mayor set up a shanty town in his yard for all the immigrants he imported. And if anything bad happens, he receives the same punishment as the immigrant.
The left, so friggin’ brain dead it’s beyond rational thought.
She is like a pit bull...she doesn’t back down, she doesn’t take any body’s crap...she says it like it is and that’s that!!! Good for her!!!
GO.TRUMP.GO!!! ALL THE WAY TO THE OVAL OFFICE!!!
Now mind you....they were two separate screenings and they both got by without an inkling of suspicion...even though they lied.
Since lying is part of islam, better to just keep them at bay.
Close ALL the doors on immigration for 2 years. See if that will do the trick.

And their “fact-checking” is always fast and loose.
Love it.
Katrina Pierson
She is fantastic and schooled this talking head that was receiving verse via her ear piece.
UNEXIT
Ignorance brings its own rewards.
Sometime in the last 75 years, the Umma for centuries a monolithic self defined culture, split up into 57 separate nations* and took over the UN.
The results speak for themselves.
*The very concept of "nation" did not exist in the Arabic language, until the 20th Century. If you can't figure out why look over your shoulder.
It's only a matter of time.
UNEXIT: UN out of the USA.
UNass the UN!
The UN was corrupt from its beginning, what with Alger Hiss basing its charter on Stalin’s USSR constitution. It’s a natural fit for any “Islamic socialist” tyranny, which the USSR helped during their rise in order to counteract the US and UK especially.
