Khan specializes in visa programs accused of selling U.S. citizenship
Washington Examiner ^ | August 1, 2016 | Paul Bedard

The father of a Muslim American soldier killed in Iraq who is caught up in a war of words with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is an immigration lawyer who specializes in a highly controversial program accused of letting immigrants buy their way into the U.S.

Khizr M. Khan's website notes that he works to help clients with the E-2 and EB-5 programs that let overseas investors buy into U.S. companies and also provides green cards for family members.

It also said that he helps in the purchase of U.S. real estate and businesses. The website lists his ability to practice in New York, though it gives a Washington phone number for the lawyer who lives in Virginia. A man who answered the phone said the website was correct, though he would not identify himself.

"The E-2 and EB-5 are two of the most notoriously abused visa categories that essentially allow wealthy foreigners to buy their way to U.S. residency, and possibly citizenship, with a relatively modest investment," said Jessica Vaughan, the policy director for the Center for Immigration Studies.

hmmm... TY

I have been wondering if he also has any ties to the enormously lucrative Refugee Resettlement program.

It’s not. It is Khan. It’s on the tombstone underneath the larger letters. Not sure why they are larger

Mr. Trump is running against The Beast. Not this open border lawyer. Focus.

Whoops!

This was supposed to be a drive-by "Mudsliming"

Looks like Trump got a lucky shot in on a tire of the musloid's getaway car. :)

That got me digging.

I went to the Refugee Resettlement Program web site and looked at New York

I didn’t see anything connected with Khan but found the “International Rescue Committee”. Get an eyeful of this: https://www.rescue.org/board-and-overseers

Your question brought to mind this Clinton oldie but goodie. His wife had the body moved.

But it's even worse than a mere little white lie. Lawrence was given all sorts of honors during his lifetime for his supposed bravery in WWII. The Russian Federation even gave him the Medal of Valor in 1994. Then Clinton bent the rules to allow him to be buried in Arlington upon Lawrence's death in 1996.

Why did Clinton do this?

The money.

"The story of Mr. Lawrence and his spectacular, self-made war record began as yet another campaign finance allegation, in this case, that wealthy Democratic donors traded campaign contributions for Arlington burial plots."

Yes it was all "Because Mr. Lawrence was a generous contributor to Mr. Clinton's 1992 Presidential campaign."

Say it isn't so! Bill Clinton selling influence and giving gifts for campaign cash? Next thing you'll tell me is he sold the Lincoln Bedroom!

We have 330 million people in this country. The West is won and the Industrial Revolution is over. We don’t need anymore immigration. We need to shut it down and let the ones here assimilate for a generation. And kick out the ones who don’t.

Well, don’t know about that, but there have been some threads/links posted that question the “heroic” death of his son...

Lot more to the story—but the guy has had opportunity to go on all the Sunday shows etc. with no in depth investigation

We were just supposed to trust the Clinton campaign and his buy his story. Should have known.

Huh?
And why all the inappropriate caps?

Never mind. I don’t care.

I honor his son for his sacrifice, but have no respect for his father, who clearly wants to see more questionable immigrants in this country!
