Biden DHS Withholds Afghan Refugee Report

The Biden administration has yet to present to Congress a report detailing the number of Afghan refugees in the United States and on overseas military bases—in violation of a law that required those disclosures by Dec. 1.

A provision in a government funding bill passed Sept. 30 required Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas to produce a detailed accounting of Afghan refugees both in the United States and abroad to Congress within 60 days. Congress has yet to receive any report from DHS.

The violation of a congressionally mandated deadline comes as more than 124,000 people were airlifted out of Afghanistan by Aug. 30. Of those, the White House says it anticipates up to 95,000 Afghans will be resettled in the United States.

"The Homeland Security Committee has not held a single public hearing on Afghan refugees or DHS oversight. Not one Biden administration official has testified under oath to the Homeland Security Committee on this process, even though the Biden administration has made DHS the lead agency on the resettlement process," Senator James Lankford (R, Okla.), said in a statement. "This is continued unchecked federal taxpayer spending with no oversight and no end in sight."

The report was mandated to provide the exact number of Afghan refugees in the United States, overseas military bases, and third-party countries. DHS was also required to provide "the number of Afghan evacuees at overseas bases or other staging areas who have been flagged as potential security concerns or risks."

In September, two Afghan refugees were arrested on assault charges related to incidents at a Wisconsin military base. The following month, the Biden administration blocked a bipartisan delegation of lawmakers from entering a refugee facility in Qatar.

The Biden administration also refused to make public an annual report of immigrants violating the terms of their visas.

Not very reassuring that they dropped of 7,000 them at Camp Atterbury, which is spittin’ distance from the largest mosque in Indiana, which is right next door to Indianapolis International Airport

How many of those will TSA allow to work in baggage and maintenance?

[SuperLuminal]

Not more than 100% of them...😡

How is Lankford even a Senator? That should be the first question asked.

However, can we expect Republican’s to write a sternly worded letter?

And at this point, what difference does it make? Didn’t 32 traitors vote for the bill approving funding for more 3rd century savages to come here? Or was it 19? I get confused with all the traitorous activity.

They were supposed to take out the US citizens, and Afghans that worked for the US. I think, instead, they took out the Afghans that could pay the biggest bribe.p

Secy of Defense Lloyd Austin reacted with awkward silence when asked if he has regrets about Afghanistan withdrawal. Can Austin and woke Gen Milley explain this?

A. We saw them......young Afghan warriors .....no women and children.....chasing the U S military plan. Then safely aboard, they arrogantly stared back at us.

THEY were told when and where to board........Americans were not.

========================

B. Biden lied, as usual.....said that the Afghans they were bringing into the United States by the thousands would be thoroughly vetted.

The Biden State Department.......and Bidens press mouthpiece Psaki .....all repeated the lie.
