Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer on Friday evening lambasted President Trump's executive order that enhances screening procedures for refugees and immigrants.
"Tears are running down the cheeks of the Statue of Liberty tonight as a grand tradition of America, welcoming immigrants, that has existed since America was founded has been stomped upon," Schumer, a Democrat from New York, said in a statement. "Taking in immigrants and refugees is not only humanitarian but has also boosted our economy and created jobs decade after decade. This is one of the most backward and nasty executive orders that the president has issued."
Trump is expected to tighten protocols for visa programs in Muslim-majority countries, including Iran, Sudan, Syria, Libya, Somalia, Yemen and Iraq. The order may suspend refugee admissions from those nations for four months until the administration makes a conclusion about which post the greatest risk to national security. Trump has said Islamic State terrorists could pose as refugees in order to travel to the U.S. to carry out a terrorist attack.
Open borders + welfare state = bankruptcy
Drama Queen vs Lady Liberty
Wish a President would’ve done this earlier so I’d be staring at two buildings instead of one right now Chuck.
Tears Are Falling - KISS
Good song.
I’ll tweet it to him. :)
What a crappy thing to say. My ancestors came here and did it the legal way. There are laws for a reason and it is time they been enforced.
Bankruptcy.. +Balkanization +chaos +eventually dissolution and destruction. If Rome is any guide. Or, to a lesser extent, Austria-Hungary.
Suck it up, you dumb schmuck, Chuckie
Chuckie the drama queen. He loves the attention.
Upchuck Schemer/Whiney Weasel ALERT!
:( My towers. Worked in 2.
Because America must be overrun by illegals and Muslims so scum like Schumer can stay in power.
After the “glorious” advent of Obama, I have become convinced there is absolutely no lie, no falsehood, no twisting of facts, no twisting of history, no ridiculous staged drama that the Democrats absolutely will not do.
It’s the statue of Liberty.
NOT the statute of Welfare Magnet.
Globalist are ugly.
That’s rain you stupid ***k! Geeez.
You’d think a United States Senator would know the difference between immigrants who came here according to the laws of our country, and those who did not. You’d think a United States Senator would understand that immigrants from certain countries might pose security and other risks that those from other countries do not. You’d think that a United States Senator would also grasp the concept that every illegal alien who is working is taking away a job from an American citizen or legal resident. They are not just picking vegetables in California. The are working in meatpacking and manufacturing and car washes all over the country. Over fifty percent of young black men in Chicago between the ages of 18 and 24 are neither working nor are they in school. Maybe at least some of them would like a job that might be available except it is taken by someone who is here illegally.
