Mormon church donates $5 million to nine federal refugee resettlement contractors

And, it sure must be a welcome donation as the federal funds that most of the nine live off of are drying up.

President Trump creates new National Vetting Center for US immigrant wannabes

Today, President Donald J. Trump signed a National Security Presidential Memorandum to establish a National Vetting Center (NVC) to coordinate the efforts of departments and agencies to better identify individuals seeking to enter the country who present a threat to national security, border security, homeland security, or public safety. The NVC, which will be led by the Department of Homeland Security, will help fulfill the President’s requirement that departments and agencies improve their coordination and use of intelligence and other information in the vetting process.

Refugee ban lifted, but extra vetting for Muslims denounced by refugee contractors

Clearly! the Christian, Jewish and secular federal resettlement agencies do not want extra vetting for Muslims from terror-producing countries. Oh no! The Homeland Security Department announced Monday that it was lifting the outright ban on refugees from these eleven countries, but certain individuals would undergo greater scrutiny before they would be admitted to the US for you to take care of with your tax dollars.

Supreme Court says Trump travel ban can be enforced for now

Truth be told, I never fully immersed myself in the travel ban issue as I saw it as separate from what I’ve been concentrating on.

US Conference of Catholic Bishops not happy with the President

So what else is new.  The USCCB, as readers know, is one of the nine major federal resettlement contractors*** that is being financially hurt by the slowdown in the refugee flow to Your Town, USA. But, they never tell the public that piece of important information when they wail about federal refugee policy changes. I […]

USCRI gets big federal grant to teach senior refugees English

Why do they need to speak English if they aren’t going out into the workplace? Because, of course, USCRI (one of nine federal refugee contractors***) and others on the No Borders Left want to be sure they can pass a citizenship test and ultimately vote. In 2016, Albany USCRI director, Jill Peckenpaugh, said USCRI, which controls the turf there, had admitted over 3,000 refugees to Albany since 2005.  http://wamc.org/post/panel-discussion-mideast-refugee-crisis-held-albany And, know that even if the refugee flow into the country is slowing down, federal grants are still going out for various and sundry ‘needs’ of the refugee community.

White House “New Senior Adviser for Refugees” still a mystery

Over a week ago, the Heritage Foundation tooted their horn in an e-mail that they had visited the White House with their “Roadmap for Reform” for the US Refugee  Admissions Program. You learned about that visit here. In their e-mail Heritage said this: Last Thursday, they briefed Admiral Hall on their report at the National […]

Wow! Trump withdraws US from UN Compact on migration/refugees

“We will decide how best to control our borders and who will be allowed to enter our country.” (US Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley)   The Human Rights Industrial Complex (HRIC) must be going nuts!
