The Obama administration is planning to expand a program to let would-be migrants from Central America apply for refugee status before they attempt to come to the U.S., Secretary of State John Kerry said Wednesday.

* THE GOAL, MY FRIENDS, IS TO SIMPLY SUBMERGE AND OVERWHELM TRADITIONAL AMERICAN CULTURE...

* AND CLEARLY THEY'RE SUCCEEDING...

The office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees will now conduct initial screenings...

* JUST... RE-READ THAT. IN FACT... RE-READ IT A FEW DOZEN TIMES...

(*PURSED LIPS*)

...to see whether migrants from Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala may qualify as refugees eligible to come to the United States legally.

* SO... THEY'RE MIGRANTS... NOT REFUGEES?

(*SMIRK*)

* THE EDITOR LET THAT ONE SLIP...

(*WINK*)

"I am pleased to announce plans to expand the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program to help vulnerable families and individuals from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, and offer them a safe and legal alternative to the dangerous journey many are currently tempted to begin, making them easy prey for human smugglers who have no interest but their own profits," Kerry said in a speech at the National Defense University.

* FOLKS... THEY'RE ADVERTISING THEIR EFFORTS TO DESTROY AMERICA! THEY'RE NOT HIDING 'EM!

(*JUST SHAKING MY HEAD*)

Later Wednesday President Barack Obama authorized the State Department to access up to $70 million from the U.S. Emergency Refugee and Migration Assistance Fund "for the purpose for meeting unexpected urgent refugee and migration needs related to the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program."

* CONGRESS SHOULD STOP HIM. THEY WON'T. BUT THEY SHOULD.

* BY THE WAY... TO REMIND EVERYONE... THAT WOULD BE THE "REPUBLICAN" CONGRESS...

(*SIGH*)

In December 2014, the U.S. began offering refugee status to children in those countries who have parents already living legally in the United States.

* ANCHOR IMMIGRATION...

So far thousands of children have applied for the program but very few been approved to come to the U.S. The latest effort is aimed at expanding that program by moving applicants, both families and single individuals, into safe zones to await processing.

* BUT IF THEY'RE ALREADY "SAFE...???"

(*SMIRK*)

* AGAIN... FOLKS... THE MASK IS TOTALLY OFF; THEY DON'T EVEN BOTHER TRYING TO SUGARCOAT IT ANY LONGER.

Refugee processing for Central Americans was launched as part of a broader effort to curb the unprecedented surge of families and children traveling alone caught at the Mexican border in recent years.

* Er... WHY CAN'T THEY JUST STAY... IN MEXICO?

During the 2014 budget year, more than 67,000 children were apprehended, along with more than 68,000 people traveling as families. The majority of immigrants in both groups were from Central America.

The flow of Central American children and families declined during the 2015 budget year, but border agents have noted significant rise in the numbers of immigrants from both groups in recent months. Since October, more than 16,000 children traveling alone and more than 20,800 people traveling as families have been caught.

The Obama administration has been trying for nearly two years to curb the flow of migrants from Central America...

* BULL$HIT! JUST THE OPPOSITE! AND WHETHER YOU APPROVE OR DISAPROVE YOU KNOW IT'S TRUE!

Obama has called for relocating about 10,000 Syrian refugees in the U.S. this year.

* CASE IN POINT!

The suicide bomber who killed 10 people in Istanbul registered as a refugee in Turkey just one week before the attack after entering the country from Syria, according to Turkish media.

The bomber, identified as Nabil Fadli, a 28-year-old Saudi-born Syrian national, gave his fingerprints at an immigration centre in Istanbul on January 5 and was allowed to move freely in the days before the bombing.

He was not on Turkey's watch list of suspected militants and no other countries passed on warnings about him, the Turkish government said.

(*PURSED LIPS*)

* THIS IS "VETTING."

(*SILENCE*)
