Tsarnaev grant of asylum steams Bill O’Reilly

O’Reilly:  Why are we supporting questionable foreign folks?

(LOL! He doesn’t know the half of it!)

I’m an ‘occasional’ fan of O’Reilly, and happened to catch part of his show last night when he used Alan Colmes as a punching bag about the Boston Bomber family’s reported $100,000 dip into the pockets of American taxpayers.

If O’Reilly continues to investigate the refugee/asylum system, I will be his number one fan!

Mediaite has the story and the clip:

Bill O’Reilly kicked off his show tonight expressing outrage with the mother of Boston bombing suspects the Tsarnaev brothers for accusing the United States of a conspiracy to frame and kill her children, when her family has been taking more than $100,000 in welfare benefits for years. O’Reilly and Monica Crowley expressed outrage at the lack of welfare oversight, and when Alan Colmes challenged their claims, O’Reilly told Colmes to “shut up.”

O’Reilly called the mother “disgraceful” for her comments, and asked exactly why “we the people [are] supporting questionable foreign folks.” He wanted to know why President Obama and Governor Deval Patrick aren’t expressing outrage with the fact that the Tsarnaevs were getting welfare assistance, decrying the lack of outrage as “business as usual” for an immigration policy and a welfare system that turns a blind eye in situations like these.

Watch the 8 minute segment on Mediaite.

The Asylum question!

Why did we let them in and how persecuted could they have been if they were, and are, traveling back and forth?

Funny that the Mediaite report just focused on the welfare use, but to me O’Reilly’s outrage about their “vacations” to the land of persecution struck a cord.

Readers, we have seen it over and over again.  We give refuge to people who claim persecution and then we see them go ‘home’ for visits and to do business.  We have written at RRW about Bosnians going ‘home’ because they still own property, Mesketian Turks have houses to sell back ‘home’ and we can only speculate that they too must go back to Russia for occasional business, but the most outrageous are the Somalis.  (Muslims all!)

We are resettling Somalis by the hundreds each month RIGHT NOW, yet many we have fed, housed, clothed and educated go back for various reasons—primarily “business” or to visit the family. Who can afford a plane ticket to Africa?   But, we can’t forget that dozens of ‘youths’ went back to learn the fine art of Jihad, here in 2008!

Since the beginning of the 2013 fiscal year we have resettled 3,674 Somalis.  If that rate continues we will be bringing  nearly 9,000 Somalis to your cities this year, putting 2013 right up there with some of our top resettlement years (since 9/11!) for Somalis!

BTW, the family reunification program for Somalis recently re-opened after being closed for years because of widespread fraud—those getting in as ‘family’ were found (through random DNA testing) not to be related at all.  The State Department admitted that tens of thousands of Somalis are in the US illegally!

Yet, we have one report after another that the new government of Somalia is welcoming American Somalis HOME!

Don’t forget!

The Gang of Eight bill will make it easier for so-called asylum seekers and refugees to be admitted to the US because it makes whole groups of people eligible while under the present  system they are still supposed to prove they personally fear persecution!

Please Bill keep investigating!

Tsarnaevs milked taxpayers for over $100,000 in benefits (asylees are welcome to welfare!)

Bomber Mom, Zubeidat, poster girl for LEGAL immigrants on welfare?

Your tax dollars!

If you are not following the British press on the Boston Bombers, you might not be getting the full flavor of the Tsarnaev’s scams on you (the American taxpayer) in addition to learning more details about their murderous rampage in the name of Islam.  The Boston Herald has the story here.  But, here the UK Daily Mail has it laid out in a more interesting format.  Read the very thorough accounting of what the Tsarnaevs milked the US and the State of Massachusetts for!  Hat tip: Don Irvine on twitter.

I’m so sorry for the victims of the Tsarnaev terrorists, but honestly this horror has finally focused the public’s attention on our out-of-control system for asylum seekers.  Help make sure this program is reformed and get it (refugee and asylum sections) dumped from the Gang of Eight’s “comprehensive reform” bill now before the US Senate.  The bill will make it easier for more refugees and asylum seekers to get into the country, get permanent residency and ultimately citizenship.

Here is the UK Daily Mail story (emphasis mine):

The family of the Boston bombing suspects has received more than $100,000 in welfare benefits over the last decade, according to the Boston Herald.

Details of the benefits – which included cash, food stamps and housing assistance – are contained within more than 500 documents that were handed over from Massachusetts welfare officials to a committee of state lawmakers on Monday.

The documents have not been released publicly, but a person who has reviewed them told the Herald that the ‘breadth of the benefits the family was receiving was stunning.’

Apparently Mass. Rep. David Linsky pressured the state agencies to release the information over the head of Governor (and Obama pal) Deval Patrick saying the citizens have a right to know.

DEMOCRAT Mass. Rep. David Linsky: taxpayers have a right to know! Yes! and all citizens (in every state) should be demanding the same right to know about the extent of all refugee welfare use (not just in the case of terrorists)!

‘I can assure members of the public that this committee will actively review every single piece of information we can find because clearly the public has a substantial right to know what benefits, if any, this family or individuals accused of some horrific crimes were receiving,’ said Linsky, the committee’s chairman.

[….]

Welfare officials have been forced to divulge details of the aid that was paid out to the family of the bombing suspects.

Mass. Gov. Patrick Deval [Deval Patrick—ed] told state agencies last week that they should not discuss the details of what government assistance Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev had received, citing privacy concerns.

Welfare information is not available for public release unless the person in question provides their consent, but it is available to lawmakers.

Massachusetts State Rep. David Linsky called on the state’s Department of Transitional Assistance to provide him with the information.

Linksy issued an ultimatum on Thursday to welfare officials, giving them 24 hours to provide the information.

The letter from Rep. Linsky was provided to the Boston Herald.

‘My office is working to fully comply with your request,’ DTA interim commissioner Stacey Monahan wrote in his report to Rep. Linsky, saying they were only providing a summary ‘given the great interest in this matter.’

In addition to the aid paid out to Tamerlan and his wife, both alleged bombers had benefited from welfare since their parents Anzor and Zubeidat Tsarnaev collected foodstamps and TAFDC – from 2002 to 2004 and again in 2009 to 2011.

Go to the full article for all the gory details.  However, keep in mind that they were granted LEGAL status in the US.  So, the next time you are tempted to say, “I’m o.k. with LEGAL immigration, it’s illegal I have a problem with!”, don’t say it, just zip it! because it shows how uninformed you are!

The Daily Mail wraps up:

Since the Tsarnaevs are Chechen immigrants, some wondered why they received aid. But the state agency explained that they were considered eligible for the public assistance.

‘The Tsarnaev parents were eligible to receive benefits as legal, non-citizen residents who were granted asylum status and met the basic eligibility criteria for DTA, including household income levels, presence of dependent children and other factors,’ the DTA interim commissioner Stacey Monahan said in a letter addressed to David Linsky, Chairman of the House Post Audit and Oversight Committee.

Contact your Members of Congress and US Senators and tell them it’s time to hold hearings on the refugee and asylum programs authorized under the Kennedy/Biden/Carter Refugee Resettlement Act of 1980.  And, by all means strip out changes made to those programs in the Gang of Eight’s amnesty bill now!

Still waiting!  We are all still waiting breathlessly for the details on the Tsarnaev’s original application for asylum, and the application for family reunification—if you see details on those docs before me, please let me know!

This is our tenth post on the refugees who became the Boston Bombers.  Go here to see our archive.

Abdurahman Alamoudi, the Boston bombers, Grover Norquist, and the GOP

~ Ann Corcoran ~ Leave a comment

Michelle Malkin is on a roll.  Yesterday, she reminded us again of Grover Norquist’s connection to Islamists, like the now imprisoned Alamoudi.  My title above is hers.

I wonder if Norquist sends Alamoudi gift packages to his prison cell?

Someone please tell Senator Marco Rubio that his buddy Norquist is an open borders pusher because he is also an Islamist which some on the right have been pointing out for going on ten years.   But, this is one more case where the mainstream media is doing a great disservice to its viewers and readers by never mentioning the controversy.

Human Rights First, Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, LaRaza—Norquist is all yours now!

By the way, Norquist even has a connection to refugee resettlement.  As early as 2007, we reported on Norquist pushing for Iraqi refugees to be admitted to the US, here.   See our entire Norquist archive here, and a more extensive archive on Norquist here at my other blog.  (Just in case some real investigative reporter for a mainstream outlet is interested in helping America.)

Here is Malkin yesterday:

Gee, maybe now someone will listen.

For years, I’ve warned about the GOP’s Grover Norquist problem. Just last week, he was front and center at the Gang of 8′s amnesty press conference — despite longtime concerns expressed on this blog and by national security advocates and activists about his dangerous Islamist alliances and progressive proclivities.

Now we learn that Norquist’s convicted terrorist pal and former funder, Abdurahman Alamoudi, was the first president of the radical mosque attended by the Boston bomber brothers, Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev…

[….]

Alamoudi, as I’ve documented repeatedly here, provided seed money to Norquist’s Muslim outreach effort during the Bush years.

Malkin flashes back to 2003:

Norquist’s lobbying firm is registered as a lobbyist for Alamoudi. Alamoudi provided seed money for Norquist’s Islamic Institute, which shares space with Norquist’s Americans for Tax Reform group. The institute is run by Alamoudi deputy and former AMC government relations director Khaled Saffuri. Saffuri and Norquist have worked closely with Bush senior adviser Karl Rove to give radical Muslim activists access to the White House.

Read it all, there is much more and lots of links!

Hey guys, where are you?  We have had some great work done in the last few days by Ann Coulter, Laura Ingraham and Michelle Malkin.

Actually the guys are out there too—here is Andy McCarthy on the jizya.  This is a great time to educate Americans about Islamic supremacism.

OOPS!  One more thing!  To my knowledge Grover has never apologized for his association with Alamoudi.

Radio host Laura Ingraham calls for a halt to all Muslim immigration

~ Ann Corcoran ~ Leave a comment

Update April 29th:  Readers to this post made yesterday our best day ever at RRW, here.  And, reader Joseline, alerted us to the White House petition to halt Muslim immigration. I signed it and wrote about it here.

I was blown away when I saw this!  And, my first thought was how sorry I am that Lawrence Auster didn’t live another month to see someone with clout and a big megaphone echo his calls for a halt to Muslim immigration to America.  He was often critical of some in the ‘anti-jihad’ movement who wouldn’t go that far, demonstrating that even they had been infected with the disease of political correctness.

Laura Ingraham (not PC)

Here is one report on what Ingraham said on Monday.  From The Raw Story:

Right-wing radio host Laura Ingraham announced on her program Monday that she’s long believed the United States should shut down all immigration from central Asia and any nation with a majority Muslim population.

Going even further, Ingraham said she’s not sure why the U.S. allows people from central Asia either, particularly ethnic Chechnens, two of whom have been identified as the Boston bombing suspects.

“I would submit that people shouldn’t be coming here as tourists from Chechnya after 9/11,” Ingraham said. “Dagistan, Checnya, Kergystan, uh-uh. As George Bush would say, ‘None of them stans.’”

Ann Coulter, not known for her political correctness either, called for jailing Mrs. Tsarnaev for wearing a hijab and wondered out loud on Hannity if Tamerlan had required her to get a clitorectomy.  You go girls!

Seriously, female genital mutilation is on the rise in America as we reported, here, last month suggesting there isn’t much assimilation going on in the Muslim “community.”

Update:  Ann Coulter says LEGAL immigration is a problem, here.

Don’t forget!  Al-Hijra, the Islamic Doctrine of Immigration, get it and read it!

Tamerlan (Tsarnaev) was on welfare

Katherine Russell Tsarnaev

That is the title of a post early this morning by Steve Sailor writing at VDARE.        Read it!   Seems the Boston Herald got the scoop by hounding the Welfare Department until they coughed it up.

No surprise to regular readers here who know about all the ‘bennies’ refugees and those granted asylum are eligible for!

There is a lesson in here for gullible American girls—Muslim men like to see their women out working—don’t convert and don’t marry them (it is actually part of the civilization jihad, but that is a story for another day).
