TheNewAmerican: Speaking on the Senate floor on November 19, Senator Jeff Sessions [R-Ala] strongly condemned President Obama’s request for funding for refugee resettlement, basing his opposition on both economic and security threats found in the president’s plan. In his speech, Sessions outlined the reasons behind his opposition to more federal spending for refugee resettlement:
Refugees are among the most costly immigration program for several reasons. Refugees are instantly eligible for federal welfare and entitlements. They are low-skilled and frequently lack any kind of formal education. There is a great cost involved — about $6.5 billion lifetime cost per each 10,000 refugees. The President said he will bring in at least 85,000 this year and perhaps 100,000 or more next year.
There are enormous security concerns as well. We have seen a number of refugees implicated in terrorist activity inside the United States. read more
the future commentary about obama’s legacy will not be as much about what he did to us, but rather about the fact that we did nothing to stop him
14 more mos, hang on for an even wilder ride
I stand with my congressman, the honorable Jeff Sessions. I just wish we had more like him in D.C.
BTW, Obamfuque is not fit to be president
How about we swap a bunch of them plus all the “Black Lives Matters” gang to China when they unload their cargo ships!?? If they balk we can threaten to close a bunch Walmarts……..!!
In Florida, Governor Rick Scott is one of the governors refusing to take in the thugs, but our Tallahassee mayor is saying he would welcome all of them. Locally, they have nothing but left wing democrats on city and county commissions. The mayor, who is a far left liberal black probably could end up being mayor for life.
Every day I’m stunned and slack jawed that our feckless Republican leaders don’t shut this clown down. CUT OFF THE MONEY! All spending originates in the house via the ways and means committee. Stop the funds.
“STUNNED” You’re kidding right?
That will be very difficult as the congressional cockroaches are never taught how to cut funding only how to tax and spend money! Cutting funding is counter intuitive to them
I got your Ways and Means Committee right here:

My Congressman is on it, and he has heard from me.
Holla’ at yo’ boy citizen

Well yeah, I’m stunned too.
Sessions wants to cut off funding for this illegal refugee invasion then he should shut down the senate with a couple of the other senators that believe as he(we) does. Hold an around the clock filibuster and shut down the fucking government. Take the fucking arrows because the incoming will be tremendous. You have the support of 70% of the public.
Do it. All it would take is one man to sound a clarion call.
Otherwise, all of this caterwauling is pointless.
You are kidding, right? What part of there is only one party, the commie party and that all politicians are COMPLICIT don’t some people get yet?
Demonrat = Bolshevik
Republicrat = Menshevik
Or, if you can’t get your head around that:
Demonrat = National Socialist
Republicrat = Inter National Socialist
