President Obamas top official responsible for vetting refugees testified before the Senate Wednesday that its possible for people from Syria and other terrorist-infested countries to have their refugee applications approved based simply on personal interviews with a highly trained immigration officer.
Leon Rodriguez, director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, could not deny that in many cases there is no data from the refugees home country that would corroborate or refute his story. He tried to reassure the committee by saying the screening process is lengthy and continuously being improved, noting that the United Nations pre-screens the refugees before his office even sees them.
Under questioning from Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, Rodriguez at first avoided giving a direct answer on whether it was possible to gain admission as a refugee based solely on an interview. That infuriated Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., who chairs the subcommittee on immigration and the national interest. His subcommittee conducted the hearing Wednesday on Obamas refugee plans for fiscal year 2017, which begins Saturday, Oct. 1.
Obama plans to bring 110,000 refugees to the United States in 2017, up from 85,000 in 2016 and 70,000 in 2015.
The administration has exceeded its 2016 target on Syrian refugees by 30 percent, resettling 12,500 in dozens of U.S. cities and towns, rather than the 10,000 it had promised the U.N.
At Wednesdays hearing, administration officials refused to say how many refugees they intend to bring in from Syria in fiscal 2017, only that it would likely exceed the 12,500 brought this year.
Nor did they say how many would come from Somalia, Iraq, Burma, Afghanistan and other hotbeds of Sunni radicalism.

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
So uh...I remember a day and age where Leon Rodriguez would have a hard time getting into the country, much less being the guy in charge of letting in aliens.
We fought a 280 year war with Spain and Mexico. There’s a reason these guys weren’t popular.
The most unvetted terrorists was vetted
more the criminal lawyer terrorist
known as Hussein Obama,
still with a dead man’s SS#.
Bozo can play with himself@!
“Oh, okay - I’ll ‘vet’ myself. Uh... let’s see... I was trained in the use of small arms and the construction of IEDs by ISIS; I believe in killing infidels; and I want my seventy-two virgins. Is that good enough?”
Welcome to America, citizen!
If they follow islam and its koran, they should never come to America.
Same with any hateful, evil and belittling belief system.
When will the people rise up against this? When it’s too late?
Just have the person on trial act as his jury. Brilliant.
I say fewer because I am sure there are some criminals that will judge themselves honestly.
Well that problem is finally solved!!!!
...lawless
The UN screens them?
The UN is actively destroying the US.
Yeah kinda like you did.
Saying Obama ordered you to do it is not going work ,you’re under the Bus after the first slaughter
yep
Spoke with a guy from ICE and the FBI about this. These guys have spent decades apiece in their professions. Both said it was literally impossible to properly vet immigrants from other countries because of the vast differences in how their criminal records are kept (if they even are in some territories and how information is shared. Interpol is sorely lacking in this regard as well. In other words, the Obama administration is completely full of $hit and there Is no way that a immigrant can be vetted.
Nah... sadly, we are doing it to ourselves. As the Greeks said, "Those whom the Gods would destroy, they first make mad."
Obama telling refugees: “Go vet yourself”
Concerned patriotic Americans to Obama: “Go ____ yourself”
[...lawless]
Your one word made me think of this:
I don’t know that he’s “the” Lawless One, but he certainly is a lawless one that does a pretty good impersonation of “The” Lawless One. Nevermind his home state lottery hit 666 the day after the 2008 election. Probably just a coincidence. Regardless,......”Renegade” as he is known to the Secret Service.
“Refused the love of the truth” - does this not describe liberals in America these past 8 years especially?
2 Thessalonians 2:8-10 New International Version (NIV)
8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming. 9 The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie, 10 and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.
But they all PROMISED that they weren’t terrorists!!!!
The next few months will be very interesting. Obama has pledged his allegiance to the UN. And who else?
