Malkin: Vetting Obama's Witless Vetters at DHS

Gaping holes in the K1 fiance visa interview process. Reckless bans on scrutinizing visa applicants' social media posts. Ignored alarms over marriage fraud. New details keep seeping out about all the "red flags" Obama's immigration officials missed in the case of the San Bernardino jihadists.

Color me unshocked.

The American public and Capitol Hill politicians should have been more vigilant about vetting Obama's vetters in the first place. What do you expect when you put crony know-nothings, political hacks and identity politics zealots in charge of our safety?

In case you'd forgotten (or never paid attention), Obama campaign finance bundler Jeh Johnson snagged the top DHS post two years ago thanks to Harry Reid's rigging of Senate filibuster rules. Johnson's a "diversity" relic from the Clinton era with zero experience in border security, port security, airport security or immigration enforcement. So what is main qualification for overseeing the $40 billion, 240,000-employee homeland security bureaucracy? Besides dumping gobs of money into Obama's coffers, he's the "first African-American" to hold the job, as the White House trumpeted.

In case you'd forgotten (or never paid attention), DHS undersecretary Alejandro Mayorkas, the No. 2 in charge of the department, was also a beneficiary of Reid's lowered nomination standards. Like Johnson, Mayorkas was an Obama bundler early and often. He slithered into the job in 2013 while still under investigation by the DHS inspector general for his role in facilitating EB-5 foreign investor visa scams over the vehement objections of homeland security staff.

Loretta Sanchez Video on Larry King

SANCHEZ SAID: "We know that there is a group, and we don't know how big that is-it can be anywhere between 5 - 20% , from the people that I speak to-that Islam is their religion and who have a desire for a caliphate and to institute that in any way possible." "They are willing to go to extremes." "They are willing to use and they do use terrorism." Sanchez sits on the powerful Committee on Homeland Security and the Committee on Armed Services.

Blood is on DHS!! IDIOTS!! GET THESE MOSLEMS OUT OF HERE!!

[Rennes Templar]

Can't wait until Trump gets in and cleans out these cesspools Obama has created.

[jazusamo]

Thanks! I’m surprised and amazed Loretta Sanchez actually came out and said that, she’s got it right.

[jazusamo]

Absolutely...DHS is salted with losers and 0bama did the salting.

[jazusamo]

Amen...I’ve no doubt at all that Trump will take the job of President seriously and start protecting American citizens again.

Which begs the question; What are we doing, bringing mostly fighting age men into America, when 2/3rds are illiterate, and as many as 20% may be on a secret mission to conduct jihad right here on American soil???

This administration is either treasonous, stupid or perhaps both!

[Travis McGee]

[jazusamo]

Yep, I believe both but 0bama has definitely committed treasonous act in my view.

How many muslims are working for DHS doing the interviewing because of language?

Who's running the show?

For years, she has bowed to poltical correctness when dealing with a militant ROP presence in Anaheim California. I guess her eyes were finally opened. She must’ve got a real shock as she was a hardcore ‘rat..
