The attack on Paris by Islamic terrorists – jihadis
as they call themselves – has presented the Republican Party’s
establishment leaders with the ultimate test of their legitimacy and
fitness to govern America.
As the jihadi attacks in Paris splashed blood
across the capital of France – and the front pages of newspapers around
the world – the same malign force that brought slaughter in the name of
Islam to the French was quietly brought to America by our own
government.
At least one of the Paris attackers has been confirmed as having registered as a “refugee” in Greece
before traveling to Paris to launch the attack. Despite that obvious
warning sign, the first group of alleged refugees from Syria was
delivered to New Orleans while news of the Paris attack was still
rolling in.
Although the Obama administration has repeatedly
said that it had no way to conduct a security investigation of the
thousands of so-called refugees it plans to bring to the United States
from Syria, the leaders of the party that controls Capitol Hill – and
has the ability to cut off the funds to stop such a plan – have done
nothing.
Indeed, by passing the “zombie budget” as John
Boehner’s going away present to Barack Obama, the Republican
establishment committed to fund this program at Obama’s requested level for the next two years.
What’s more, Breitbart’s Julia Hahn detailed in an exclusive interview
with House Freedom Caucus Chairman Rep. Jim Jordan (OH-4) that
conservative House members have received no commitment from Speaker Rep.
Paul Ryan that he would in any way try to curb Obama’s policy of
importing vast numbers of Muslims to America.
Nothing captures the reasons for the white-hot fury
of America’s country class voters quite so well as this spineless
failure of the Republican Party’s leadership to exercise their
constitutional responsibility to protect and defend the Constitution and
the American homeland from such an obvious threat.
And nothing captures how the “iron triangle” of
entrenched Washington insider interests uses its influence on Congress
to raid the Treasury and betray the American people as does the refugee
“resettlement” industry.
As our friend James Simpson documented in a recent article for The American Thinker,
taxpayer funded so-called “Voluntary Agencies,” such as Catholic
Charities, are paid close $1 billion a year to bring U.N. designated
refugees to America.
And their leaders, who are paid in the high six
figures, meet regularly with Congress to lobby for more refugees to be
brought to America, and more taxpayer spending to support them.
Refugees from Somalia, Iraq, Afghanistan and
elsewhere establish their own little enclaves. They are not taught to
assimilate. They are however, taught how to game the system.
With 74.2 percent of refugees on food stamps, 56
percent on Medicaid and 47.1 on SSI cash assistance Simpson calculates
refugee “resettlement” costs are currently running at well over $10
billion per year.
But the vast cost of these programs isn’t the worst
part; some 77 percent of these “refugees” are young men of military
age. It is the clear and present danger these “refugees” pose to America
– and the near-treasonous dismissal of that danger by Republican
leaders – that has brought us to this national security crisis.
As we here at CHQ documented,
Muslim Boston Marathon bombers Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev were
welcomed into the United States as “refugees” and given welfare and
other government benefits during their youthful inculcation in radical
Islamist thought and terrorist tactics.
And Senators Jeff Sessions and Ted Cruz have
documented some 72 other domestic terror “incidents” attributable to
Muslim refugees or refugee-related individuals – in just the past year
alone.
As the entirely predictable story of the role of
so-called Syrian refugees in the Paris attacks unfolds, the Capitol Hill
Republican establishment can no longer act like they don’t understand
the danger of bringing another jihadi attack to America that Obama's
immigration policies pose.
The ultimate test of the legitimacy of any
government is whether or not it has the consent of the governed, and
acts in their best interest.
Republican leaders on Capitol Hill now face that test.
We urge you to contact your Representative and
Senators (the Capitol Switchboard is 1-866-220-0044) tell them that it
is time for leadership; they must stop bringing jihad to America. Tell
them to take a good long look at the photo that accompanies this
article, and then tell them that if they fail to act to stop Obama from
bringing more Syrian “refugees” to America they will have not only
forfeited what little legitimacy they have left, they will have become
complicit in the bloodshed that will surely follow.
God bless,
