1. DHS Can't Find 266 Illegals Who Pose 'National Security' Threat
The Department of Homeland Security, with some
240,000 employees and an annual budget of more than $60 billion, admits
it can't find 266 foreign nationals who overstayed their visas and could
pose a national security threat.
Rebecca Gambler, director of Homeland Security
and Justice Issues for the Government Accountability Office, testified
on May 21 before the House Subcommittee on Border and Maritime Security.
She disclosed that in 2011, DHS identified 1,901 illegal overstays "who
could pose national-security or public-safety concerns."
As of March 2013, 14 percent, or 266, still can't be located.
Of the 1,901 potentially dangerous overstays, 481
cases were given to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE)
Enforcement and Removal Operations division because they presented
"potential public-safety threats," according to a GAO report cited by
CNS News.
Another 302 were in the process of changing their
status to continue living in the United States, 711 had left the
country, and nine had been arrested.
"We have reported that most overstays are likely
motivated by economic opportunities to stay in the United States beyond
their authorized periods of admission," Gambler said.
"However, overstays could pose homeland security
concerns. For example, five of the 19 Sept. 11, 2001, hijackers were
overstays," she said.
Two U.S. senators — Homeland Security and
Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Joe Lieberman of Connecticut and
Ranking Republican Susan Collins of Maine — cited the GAO report and
noted that "40 to 45 percent of the estimated total population of
illegal aliens — 4 million to 5 million people — stayed past their visa
expiration dates. But DHS' U.S. VISIT program — which is supposed to
identify people who overstay their visas by comparing entry and exit
information — cannot keep up with the number of potential overstays it
identifies by matching entry and exit records."
Sen. Lieberman said: "Despite numerous
congressional and DHS efforts, we still lack an exit system that will
effectively identify people who have overstayed their visas, and do so
in real time."
And Sen. Collins said: "According to the GAO
report, ICE should do a better job identifying the estimated 4 million
people in the United States who have stayed illegally after their
permission to be here expired.
"I understand that only 3 percent of ICE efforts
are focused on these cases. That seems insufficient and shortsighted, as
almost half of all unauthorized residents fall into this category."
A column on the Accuracy in Media website
observed: "Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano boasts of the
success of her department in dealing with illegal immigration and
related issues including border security.
"However, past and recent GAO studies present a different picture."

For Christian American readers of this blog:
I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.
The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!
A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:
"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."
Thanks Jack!

This should really scare all of
us, Democrats or Republicans.....
Are you concerned?I see this as non-political. Regardless of which political party is in the White House, when our Government is being filled with well known enemies to our form of Government, its time for the American people to wake up!Subject: LOOK WHO'S NEW IN THE WHITE HOUSE
Look who's new in the white house!Arif Alikhan - Assistant Secretary for Policy Developmentfor the U.S. Department of Homeland SecurityMohammed Elibiary - Homeland Security AdviserRashad Hussain - Special Envoy to the (OIC)Organization of the Islamic ConferenceSalam al-Marayati - Obama Adviser –founder Muslim Public Affairs Counciland its current executive directorImam Mohamed Magid - Obama's Sharia Czar –Islamic Society of North AmericaEboo Patel - Advisory Council on Faith-BasedNeighborhood PartnershipsThis is flat out scary!!!!The foxes are now living in the hen house...Now ask me why I am concerned!!!
PASS THIS ON!!!
Lt. Col. Matthew Dooley ... Thx Dr. H!
Received this from a retired Air
Force veteran.......very sad happening.
I wish I could say this could
never happen, but obviously it can and does happen. Never forget that
this is the administration and the Army was the service that decided 13 dead
and many more wounded was work place violence.
Subject: Lt.
Col. Matthew Dooley
Lt. Col Matthew Dooley, a West Point graduate and highly-decorated combat veteran, was an instructor at the Joint Forces Staff College at the National Defense University. He had 19 years of service and experience, and was considered one of the most highly qualified military instructors on Radical Islam & Terrorism.
He taught military students about the situations they would encounter, how to react, about Islamic culture, traditions, and explained the mindset of Islamic extremists. Passing down first hand knowledge and experience, and teaching courses that were suggested (and approved) by the the Joint Forces Staff College. The course "Perspectives on Islam and Islamic Radicalism", which was suggested and approved by the Joint Forces Staff College, caught the attention of several Islamic Groups, and they wanted to make an example of him.
They collectively wrote a letter expressing their outrage, and the Pro-Islamic Obama Administration was all too happy to assist. The letter was passed to Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Martin Dempsey. Dempsey publicly degraded and reprimanded Dooley, and Dooley received a negative Officer Evaluation Report almost immediately (which he had aced for the past 5 years). He was relieved of teaching duties, and his career has been red-flagged.
“He had a brilliant career ahead of him. Now, he has been flagged.” - Richard Thompson, Thomas More Law Center
"All US military Combatant Commands, Services, the National Guard Bureau, and Joint Chiefs are under Dempsey's Muslim Brotherhood-dictated order to ensure that henceforth, no US military course will ever again teach truth about Islam that the jihadist enemy finds offensive, or just too informative." - Former CIA agent Claire M. Lopez (about Lt. Col Dooley)
The Obama Administration has demonstrated lightning speed to dismiss Military brass that does not conform to it's agenda, and not surprisingly, nobody is speaking up for Lt. Col. Dooley.
IT'S A SAD DAY FOR THIS COUNTRY WHEN GOOD LOYAL MEN LIKE THIS GET THROWN UNDER THE BUS BECAUSE NOBODY HAS THE COURAGE TO STAND UP!
Share this if you would. Let's bring some attention to this.
God bless you all ... Thx Nita E!
God
IS Good
Dear God... I know you're watching over me And I'm feeling truly blessed For no matter what I pray for You always know what's best! I have this circle of E-mail friends, Who mean a lot to me; Some days I "send" and "send," At other times, I let them be. I am so blessed to have these friends, With whom I've grown so close; So this little poem I dictate to them, Because to me they are the "Most"! When I see each name download, And view the message they've sent; I know they've thought of me that day, And "well wishes" were their intent. So to you, my friends, I would like to say, Thank you for being a part; Of all my daily contacts, This comes right from my heart. God bless you all is my prayer today, I'm honored to call you "friend"; I pray God will keep you safe, Until we write or see each other again! |
Distance and time may separate us
But friendship and memories won't
Budweiser does some good ... Thx Sonny H!
"Do not regret growing older . It is a privilege denied to many" .
A Mexican , a Black, a Muslim and a Redneck
were walking together on a beach when the Black stumbled over a bottle in
the sand.
He picked up the bottle, rubbed the sand off it, and a Genie appeared.
"I can only grant four wishes," the Genie said. "Since there are four of you,
you may have a wish apiece."
Pointing at the Black, he said, "Since you found the bottle, you may have
the first wish."
The Black studied for a moment then said, "I wish for a fleet of ships so
that I can gather all my people and take them back to our homeland, Africa."
Poof! It was done! Hundreds of ships appeared on the skyline.
The Mexican said, "I weesh for enough Cheby peekups to take all my
people back to our homeland, May-he-co!"
Poof! It was done! Row after row of Chevrolet Pickups appeared on the beach.
The Muslim said, "I wish for ten thousand camels to take all of my people
away from this horrible country loaded with infidels so we can live in
peace in Muslim countries and serve Allah."
Poof! It was done! ten thousand camels suddenly appeared on the beach.
Turning to the Redneck, the Genie asked, "And what is your wish?
The Redneck watched as the loaded pickups began moving toward the border,
then looked out to sea and watched the loaded ships sailing out into the
sunset, then he looked at all of the Muslims getting on top of the camels
and riding off.
The Redneck said, "Just give me a Bud Light. It doesn't get any better than this!"
