Race to resettle refugees in US before deal is overturned by President-elect Donald Trump

TURNBULL and Obama Government officials are racing to begin resettling refugees in the United States before the incoming Trump administration can halt the deal between the two countries.

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has ordered the biggest peacetime border protection operation in Australian history to deter people smugglers after the US agreed to accept refugees currently held on Nauru and Manus Island.

The agreement will see women, children, family groups and other vulnerable refugees assessed for residency in the United States.

US Homeland Security officials are expected to arrive in Australia within days to begin arranging health and security checks.

Mr Turnbull yesterday publicly thanked President Barack Obama for agreeing to the one-off deal, but was unable to say if incoming president Donald Trump would honour the agreement after he was sworn in on January 20.

Mr Trump has previously called for a temporary ban on Muslim immigration to the US and many of the 1,145 asylum seekers on Nauru and 958 on Manus are Muslims.

Don’t you simple shoot people smugglers and throw the smugglees onto their respective shores with malice?

Trump should announce to Australia that he will consider it a slap in the face of his administration if they proceed with this deal..I’m sure there are millions of dollars of foreign aid to Australia that we could “change our minds” on.

This needs to be stopped. Send them home to fight for their own country. Although the Australian gun control policy is a major suck, I do like their border protection plan. We need to follow their lead here in America on that one.

Man what a traitor we have still sitting in the WH. He can't be gone fast enough. You know this batch of Muslim "refugees" will proably be sent to Trump towers with suitcase bombs to unpack at the base.

You just can't trust anything that comes out of his mouth at all to be the truth.

Should read: "Race to resettle Muslim refugees in US...". These are Muslim refugees.

Government employees need to start passive resistance, justt can’t get it done, etc. Those who race forward to help Obama need to be told that their lives are going to become very difficult. Duty station North Pole type difficult.

Fifty years ago Australia had the same problem with Chinese immigration. None were allowed in. The joke was...

Hussein’s pushing hard to get 2,000 more muzzie refugees here, from Australia. And placed in more Mayberry RFDs by Christian charities.

God, please stop this.
