SPERO: While the limit on the number of refugees entering the United State has been reached, if the United Nations has its way, more can be expected. While the Trump administration set a limit of 50,000 refugees entering the U.S., the number of refugees worldwide recently hit a historical high of 65.5 million, according to the UN. Because the United States is a member of the UN, it is continuously under pressure to accept more.
The refugee cap set by the current administration was reached on July 12, but because of a Supreme Court ruling last month, more refugees can still enter if they can prove close familial ties to persons already living in the country. As a result of the high court’s ruling on Trump’s travel ban executive order, according to the State Department, as of July 13, persons who have a “credible claim to a bona fide relationship” to a person or an entity in the country will be eligible for admission.
An interagency group within the federal government define “bonafide relationship” for the purposes of admitting refugees on the basis of the Immigration and Nationality Act. However, there are advocacy groups that are going to court to re-define which persons may be admitted. In any event, when the new fiscal year begins on October 1, the current cap of 50,000 will presumably be applied to the following months. There is no way to know how many refugees will actually enter the country because there is no way to predict how a re-definition of close familial relationship will affect the exact total.
Every year, the president sets the limit for the entry of refugees. Barack Obama increased the number from 85,000 to 110,000 in 2016. Trump has cut that down. MORE
There frickin’ invaders
NOT refugees.
Hard to prove they’re not related, due to the massive inbreeding.
We probably just need to Exit the U.N , I think they Empower Liberalism Within our Country ! We’re Arleady Going to the Dump with CNN , Let’s Make some room in the Truck for the U.N !!!
Shut down activist federal judges.
The obvious solution is to bring ’em in thru Gitmo…
Population declin e?…so why is that a bad thing?
UN? Phuck them. Shove the compound into the ocean and make it a trailer park.
Get out of the UN and let the maggots stew in their own juices.
We owe them NOTHING.
If anything, the teeming unwashed masses of humanity owe us (western civilization), for every invention and innovation of the past 6 centuries – INCLUDING the cessation of slavery, electricity, the internal combustion engine, the end of feudalism, political economy, Freedom, Liberty, penicillin, DDT, gravity, the wheel (not really), &c., &c., &c.
The world can keep their snot-nosed, heathen, idle imbeciles (we have enough of our own).
izlamo delenda est …
The UN is attacking the West. How many musloids did China, Russia and Japan take?
FOAD commies.
It needs to be a negative number. A really big negative number.
Send them all back.
Refugees are like stray dogs. If they are to be taken in, they must be spayed or neutered in order to reduce the numbers of unwanted animals. Liberals need to spay or neuter their pet refugees.
As we have a permanent seat on the security council getting out of the UN would be foolish. It would feel really good to kick their ass out of the US though. As distasteful as it is we should continue our membership but cut our funding down to a bare minimum. Do not think we have a lot of friends in the UN, check voting records of other countries. We can do more ion the UN than out of it.
We white people need to have more kids – y’all get busy!
Stay in. But cut our funding to Zero.
Make the UN pay us.
