House Democrat: 'American terrorists' are the real threat (He means you and me)
The Washington Examiner ^ | January 30, 2017 | Pete Kasperowicz

Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., said Monday that President Trump was wrong to issue an executive order temporarily banning immigrants from Muslim-majority countries because American citizens are the real terrorism threat in the U.S.

"The real threat here so far is home-grown, American terrorists, and not people from these seven countries," Nadler said on CNN.

Trump on Friday issued an order suspending immigration from Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen. The 90-day ban is meant to give federal agencies time to review the information they need to verify the identity of immigrants seeking to enter the United States.

It also shut down the refugee program for four months, and indefinitely suspended acceptance of Syrian refugees.

Democrats and even some Republicans have said the order goes too far, but Trump's team has said the temporary ban is needed in the face of terrorism threats that some immigrants could pose to U.S. citizens.

A federal court has already stopped one part of Trump's plan that calls for the deportation of some immigrants. Nadler predicted Trump's entire order would fall in the courts.

"I think the courts will stop it," he said.

I was just getting ready to post a link to that very thing. This woman sounds like a terrorist to me. She needs to start in Hollywood. They have lots of houses and money and since they are all about saving the world I’m sure they would love to appease her.

I cannot disagree. One of the sins Jews repent for on Yom Kippur, one that can lead to excommunication, is betrayal, and Schumer is a betrayer. By the way, spell check keeps changing schumer to schemer.

“”not people from these seven countries,” Nadler said “”

So what do you want us to do, Jerry - WAIT until a few or more from those seven countries come here, actually follow suit and do what good muslims are taught to do? Kill infidels!!! If you have any security - personal or property, please give it up as you have nothing to fear from any refugee!!! Move out of your gated community, hire them for household help, gardening etc.

As Howie Carr calls the Tsarnaev brothers: Flashbag & Speedbump were NOT born in the USA. They were children when their parents were granted the privilege of immigrating to the USA. So the brothers were immigrant terrorist, not homegrown terrorist.

Nadler gets an F at Conservative Review:

"Rep. Jerrold Nadler D NY-10 F 22% 24yrs 2018"

24 years in Washington D.C. Term limits anyone?

From CPUSA - May Day 2012 – The 99% Spring Has Arrived:

"A Boston Globe article summarizes a report from the International Labor Organization, which concludes, “Austerity has not produced more economic growth.” On MSNBC, talking about May Day, austerity and what the Occupy Movement can do to improve things, Chris Hayes’ latest weekend panel featured labor leaders, an Occupy Wall Street activist and Rep. Nadler (D-NY)."

Nadler a member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and the Democratic Socialists of America.

An article by Trevor Loudon on Nadler: Jerry Nadler – Still a Radical Socialist?

Up for reelection in 2018. Can we mount an effort to get rid of him? Maybe Trump or his staff can get involved with this.

So Jerry, do these home-grown, American terrorists have a particular ideology? It sure would have been nice to hear you share that information because what you've said here is vague as hell.

I'd like to protect myself from them and without more information I'm in danger. I know...let's "have a conversation" and you can explain yourself further!
You can even explain why these people aren't already under arrest since they're so dangerous.

His “home grown terrorists” refers to me and you. DemocRats are good at projection. He knows who he hates and what he’d do to them if he got the chance.
