Uzbek NYC terror suspect entered US under Diversity Visa Program
IT’S TIME CONGRESS STARTED FOCUSING ON OUR SUICIDAL IMMIGRATION POLICIES & STOPPING THE NEXT SAYFULLO SAIPOV.
The act of self-defense and carrying a firearm is a constitutional right; immigration is not. Whenever there is a major domestic shooting, the political elites focus our attention on gun control, even though it doesn’t work.
Yet, whenever we admit fervent Sharia-believing Muslims from the Middle East and they commit terror attacks on our soil, we never have a family discussion over suicidal immigration policies.
How many people must die before it becomes in vogue to speak that truth – that when you bring the Middle East to your shores … you bring the Middle East to your shores.
The suspect in Tuesday’s vehicular jihad attack in Manhattan is reportedly one Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, an Uzbek national who was (presumably) issued a green card by Obama’s DHS in 2010.

WABC-NY reports: "Authorities say he came to the United States seven years ago from Uzbekistan under what is called the Diversity Visa Program, which offers a lottery for people from countries with few immigrants in America."
He didn’t fly over on an air force or sail over on a ship sponsored by ISIS and al-Qaeda or some foreign nation-state. We let him in through our front door, just like we did with the 9/11 hijackers. Democrats will talk about violent extremism and Republicans will talk about endless involvement in overseas social work.
But nobody will have a discussion on the core problem since 9/11.
Last month, we posted a report showing that 1.83 million green cards were issued to nationals of predominantly Muslim countries from 2001-2015, which has made immigration from the Middle East the fastest-growing subset.
This was done after 9/11; this was the response by our political class. And now, another post-9/11 terrorist was let in during this regime of hyper-immigration.
That doesn’t include the roughly 155,000 foreign students every year from those same countries. We have admitted over 59,000 legal permanent residents from Uzbekistan since 2001. Does anyone want to guess how many subscribe to Sharia supremacism, which cultivates the climate for these individuals to hate America?
We can only wonder about the family members, friends, and relatives of this terrorist. Remember, former FBI Director James Comey admitted that 15 percent of those subject to terrorism investigations were refugees.
Yet, when the president proposes a modest moratorium on just a few of the countries – not even the primary drivers of our immigration from the Middle East – our body politic has empowered a single-district judge to shut down our national security.
Think about this: Under the prevailing deference to judicial supremacy, Trump’s DHS feels compelled to not deny a single visa from a country like Uzbekistan – all because of Judge Watson of Hawaii (even though the Supreme Court already slapped down his ridiculous order on the stronger travel ban).

We must now wait until the Ninth Circuit inevitably agrees with Watson and the case finally goes back to the Supreme Court just to resume our national security. And even then, lower court judges will continue the same pattern with every subsequent policy.
It’s time for Congress to stop focusing on nonsense. It’s time it stops making counterterrorism exclusively about endless Islamic civil wars overseas.
Congress must clamp down on immigration, weaken the jurisdiction of lower courts to get involved in immigration cases, and further bolster Homeland Security efforts to identify the thousands of threats we already have in our country as a result of masochistic immigration policies.
[h=2]The suspected foreign national terrorist behind the New York City attack that has left at least eight individuals dead came to the United States years ago through the Diversity Visa Lottery, a program that President Trump and pro-American immigration reformers have demanded an end to.[/h]
According to ABC New York, 29-year-old Sayfullo Saipov — the man who allegedly mowed down pedestrians in the Tribeca neighborhood of New York City — entered the U.S. in 2010 from Uzbekistan under the Diversity Visa Lottery before obtaining a Green Card.
The Diversity Visa Lottery gives out 50,000 visas every year to foreign nationals from a multitude of countries, including those with known terrorist problems – such as Afghanistan, Algeria, Egypt, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Syria, Trinidad and Tobago, Venezuela, Yemen, and Uzbekistan.

Trump, though, along with Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) and Sen. David Perdue (R-GA), has been calling for an end to the Diversity Visa Lottery program since August. Under the RAISE Act, introduced in February and endorsed by Trump in August, the Diversity Visa Lottery would be eliminated altogether.
The Trump administration took eliminating the Diversity Visa Lottery even more seriously earlier this month when they introduced the president’s immigration priorities, which like the RAISE Act called for the elimination of the program.
In an interview with Breitbart News, Cotton said the Diversity Visa Lottery does not serve the national interest, as it arbitrarily rewards random foreign nationals with visas to come to the U.S.
“The diversity lottery serves no discernible humanitarian or economic interest,” Cotton explained to Breitbart News. “It is a policy that has far outlived its usefulness and it really doesn’t even serve diversity since Europe is one of the primary uses of it. Even in past efforts at amnesty-first comprehensive immigration reform like we saw in 2013 and 2007, most people agree we should eliminate the diversity lottery. I think it’s a policy that has far outlived its usefulness if it ever had any utility and it’s time to eliminate the diversity lottery.”
In 2011, just a year after the New York City foreign terror suspect, Saipov, entered the U.S. from Uzbekistan through the Diversity Visa Lottery, Center for Immigration Studies National Security Policy Director Janice Kephart testified before Congress about the security risks associated with the visa program.

“The Diversity Visa Program is an unfortunate blind spot in our immigration system that has outlived whatever purpose it might have had,” Kephart explained in her testimony in 2011. “The applicants for these 50,000 ‘visa lottery’ immigration slots require few skills. Neither their qualifications nor identity can be properly vetted. The program does not know, really, who these applicants are or their true purpose in coming to the United States. The program is a national security vulnerability and has been used by terrorists and organized criminals to not only enter the United States but to bring others in as well.”
“According to unofficial statements from the State Department, the program is rife with fraud in part because application standards are so low,” Kephart continued. “The program claims to have strict eligibility requirements, but only calls for a high school education or its equivalent or two years of work experience within the past five years in an occupation requiring at least two years of training or experience.”
“In most of the countries eligible for a diversity visa, neither education nor work experience can be verified, let alone identity,” Kephart stated. “Consular officers in U.S. embassies abroad thus spend an inordinate amount of time attempting to determine if people are who they say they are and actually qualify for the program. Checking watch lists based on names or prior U.S. immigration histories thus often has little bearing on making a solid determination of identity, qualifications, or legitimate national security concerns.”
Democrats, the Republican establishment, the mainstream media, and the big business lobby have slammed the RAISE Act and Trump’s immigration priorities that would eliminate the Diversity Visa Lottery, Breitbart News reported.

In a statement following Trump’s detailed list of immigration priorities, Democratic leaders released a statement saying the White House “can’t be serious” with such reforms.
Soon after the Democrats’ statement on Trump’s immigration priorities, the mainstream media followed tune, with NBC News, the New York Times, POLITICO, and the Washington Post slamming the reforms as “hard-line” and a “posion pill.”
Just this week, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) admitted that he did not even bother reading Trump’s immigration priorities, calling the 70-point list that included ending the Diversity Visa Lottery “non-starters.”
As Breitbart News reported, the elimination of the Diversity Visa Lottery was supported by Civil Rights icon Barbara Jordan, whose 1995 immigration subcommittee found that the program did not serve the national interest of the American people.

Most immigrants legal or otherwise are non-white. You won't stop it without chants of racism. They don't care we have no jobs for these people and are importing poverty. You don't even need to worry about using potential terrorism as the reason to stop immigration. The bigger much more important reason doesn't even matter to these people. If it continues much longer....we will be another third world country.
what's interesting is that even the author of this policy, Schumer, declared 4 years ago that it wasn't having the intended effect which was to bring in well-intentioned, well-educated Europeans and Africans. And he specifically cited how the influx of Central Asians (ukbek, turkemistan, tajik, etc) .... aka uneducated Muslims and their extended families... in this program was an unintended consequence. Now he has 20 dead or injured constituents on his hands.
"I was the author of the Diversity Visa Program, so I care about it," Schumer said. "We had strong opposition from both our Republican colleagues in our Gang of Eight and we heard that for House Republicans it was a nonstarter. The program was an effort to bring in people from Europe and Africa and it was successful for a while, but now it has actually shifted. Some of the highest numbers are from Central Asia."

Oh woe is us. Boo fucking who! I hate to break it to everyone but
Elvis has left the building with the fat lady and they're not singing.
The FBI has nearly 1,000 active probes involving terrorist group inside
the United States which includes all 50 States.
See that horse standing in the field looking at the barn? He's trying to
tell us we've left the door open far too long.
But remember...
This is the right thing to do because, “these young people are going to make
extraordinary contributions and are already making extraordinary contributions
to our society.” Obama.

[h=2]Trump reveals New York terror suspect brought in TWENTY THREE 'family members' after winning Green Card lottery as he says it's time to end 'chain migration'[/h]
President Donald Trump said the suspect in the New York terror attack had been allowed to bring in 23 people as a 'primary point of contact,' as he called for changes in the U.S. immigration system just hours after the attack. The suspect in the horrific truck killings, Sayfullo Saipov, came into the U.S. on a 'diversity visa' lottery program. Under current policies, legal immigrants may sponsor other families members to join them as a contact. The president called for an end to 'chain migration' and ending diversity visas.
[h=2]White House declares New York terror suspect an 'enemy combatant' - denying him the right to remain silent and have a lawyer - and says Trump 'would support' sending 'animal' to Gitmo[/h]
Terming terror suspect Sayfullo Saipov an 'enemy combatant' would make the alleged New York killer ineligible for legal rights afforded to criminal suspects in U.S. courts
