President Obama’s days in the White House are short now, but that hasn’t slowed his t*****rous acts of sabotage. He means for us to suffer his presidency long after he’s gone.

The Obama administration announced that 175 immigrants were approved for citizenship even though their names were not being run through a basic FBI name-check database.

NOT EVEN BASIC VETTING
Homeland Security officials blamed “computer code” for the problem, which affected about 15,000 applications. These left-wing clowns are responsible for our safety?

OBAMA ADMINISTRATION FAILS TO CHECK IMMIGRANTS AGAINST FBI DATABASES, APPROVES CITIZENSHIP
By Stephen Dinan – The Washington Times – Sunday, December 4, 2016


Some 175 immigrants were approved for citizenship even though their names weren’t properly run through the FBI’s name-check databases, potentially missing red f**gs that may have disqualified them from naturalization, the Obama administration admitted this weekend.

Homeland Security officials blamed computer code for the problem, which affected about 15,000 applications in total.

The problem was significant enough that the government halted all naturalization ceremonies already in the pipeline and banned U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services officers from approving new citizenship applications beginning on Nov. 29, when officials acknowledged the problem in an internal email that was later obtained by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte.

In the internal email, Daniel M. Renaud, associate director at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, ordered all officers “not to approve or oath any naturalization cases in ELIS,” referring to the Electronic Immigration System that serves as the case management system for processing applications.

“At this point we are not confident that proper FBI Name Checks have been run on certain ELIS cases. At this point we are uncertain of the scope of the problem,” he wrote.

It was another embarrassing black eye for USCIS, which earlier this year admitted it had granted citizenship to hundreds of criminals who should have been barred but who escaped notice because the agency wasn’t properly checking their fingerprints. Tens of thousands of fingerprints remain in paper files, and the agency was only checking electronic records, an internal audit said.

Mr. Goodlatte said he was stunned that USCIS didn’t notify him, as the chairman of the committee that oversees the agency, of the new problem. He only learned about it after a source provided him with Mr. Renaud’s internal email.

Homeland Security said the problem arose as part of the ongoing push to digital processing of citizenship applications.

Some 15,000 applications were affected, including about 175 people who had their applications approved despite not having an accurate name check, the department said. Those persons have all had their names resubmitted to the FBI for an update.

FBI name checks are a critical part of the application process, giving immigration officers a look at potential criminal histories or other national security red f**gs that would make someone ineligible for citizenship.

Mr. Goodlatte demanded USCIS detail when it discovered the problem and how many cases were affected, and said the agency should take steps to strip citizenship from anyone who shouldn’t have been approved.

Homeland Security spokesman Aaron Rodriguez said the department will respond directly to Mr. Goodlatte, but insisted officials take the background process seriously.

The spokesman said FBI name checks are one of a number of steps in the process, each aimed at weeding out bad citizenship applications. But Mr. Rodriguez said the name checks are a critical part of the process, and must be completed before someone is cleared to come in for a naturalization interview.

“Naturalization applications represent a significant portion of USCIS’ caseload, and as with any major system change, some challenges were expected as we moved to electronic processing of the N-400. We will continue to employ multiple quality controls to ensure the integrity of the naturalization process,” the spokesman said.

In his email to employees, Mr. Renaud said officers were allowed to continue conducting citizenship interviews but could not issue a final approval. In emergency cases where the case must be decided or an oath administered, he said, officers needed to get written confirmation from a regional office that the FBI information in the system was correct.

ISIS has stated that their goal is to infiltrate our country from within. The Muslim Brotherhood has been designated as a terrorist group yet, Obama has them working in the White House and throughout our government. He has released terrorists that were captured on the battlefield and in some cases they have returned to the battlefield. Has anyone ever checked how many military men and women were injured or died capturing the Gitmo terrorists. Crickets. He has made our borders porous which ISIS has stated that is how they plan to enter the country. Obama has done more by funding Iran and providing arms to ISIS. These actions by Obama should be considered as aiding and abetting the enemy and should be considered treasonous. He should be removed from office immediately and arrested by the military. He is the most disgraceful un-American and scariest president we have ever had and he should be removed now before further damage can be done. 😈

Mollie, all very true! CAIR, which is also considered a terrorist organization, seems to have tremendous influence with him. Funny, I have many Muslim friends, and they all v**ed for Trump. We will see!
