Establishment in full meltdown over Trump refugee orders

'We will fight this Islamophobic and dangerous proposal'

President Donald Trump signed an executive order Friday that will pause the resettlement of Third World refugees in the United States for 120 days while a system of “extreme vetting” is put in place.

With the stroke of a pen, Trump set off a firestorm of criticism from the media, the religious establishment, business leaders and especially those in the business of resettling refugees. The volunteer agencies, or VOLAGs, which get paid by the government to resettle refugees, stand to lose millions of dollars in federal grants during the 120 days they sit idle.

The executive order itself seemed relatively mild to those who have been watching the refugee program for years with a critical eye.

Watchdogs such as Ann Corcoran at Refugee Resettlement Watch said she is concerned that after the 120-day pause expires, things will go back to business as usual.

“If it’s just a four-month moratorium that is nowhere near adequate,” Corcoran told WND. “This four months has to be used as an opportunity for Congress to reform the law, the Refugee Act of 1980, otherwise we’ll just be back to square one and they will all claim they did something when in fact they didn’t.”

"The federal government pays these agencies $2,050 for every refugee they resettle in the U.S., and they’ve resettled more than 3 million since the Refugee Act of 1980 was signed by President Jimmy Carter."


3 million refugees have been resettled since the Refugee Act of 1980 was signed?

Does that number^^ sound familiar? Ironically that is the same number that they are saying Hillary beat Trump by!! That doesn't include the 3 million illegal Mexicans in California that voted for Hillary. That is a lot of refugees and that can make a serious change to the way of life we once knew. Those 3 million resettled doesn't include the hundreds of thousands of Muslims coming over here on their own. They are taking over on city at a time and your stupid Democrats are too stupid to see it happen.

So now we have to consider this... Do we fly the American flag, the Islamic flag or the Mexican flag?? Think about it!!
