Immigration officials NOT ALLOWED to check social media of Tashfeen Malik during Visa process

This is absolutely abominable!

ABC NEWS – Fearing a civil liberties backlash and “bad public relations” for the Obama administration, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson refused in early 2014 to end a secret U.S. policy that prohibited immigration officials from reviewing the social media messages of all foreign citizens applying for U.S. visas, a former senior department official said.

“During that time period immigration officials were not allowed to use or review social media as part of the screening process,” John Cohen, a former acting under-secretary at DHS for intelligence and analysis. Cohen is now a national security consultant for ABC News.

One current and one former senior counter-terrorism official confirmed Cohen’s account about the refusal of DHS to change its policy about the public social media posts of all foreign applicants.

Watch:

If it weren’t for the Obama administration’s policies, 14 people in San Bernardino would likely all still be alive! That’s just how detestable this is.

And it’s not just this policy. While searching social media would likely have prevented Tashfeen Malik from entering the country, we also know from a whistleblower that because the Obama administration didn’t want to profile people, they shut down another program that would have likely put appropriate focus on Syed Farook via his mosque!

To say that this administration has blood on their hands is an understatement!
