DHS Official Struggles To Answer Basic Security Questions:

That is such a hoot. When dumbass Jordan says, "You've got the longest title," as if that means she's the best authority, then says she's the deputy assistant secretary, that is priceless.

Never mind the fact that she's a clueless, incompetent moron.

How is that a fact? She clearly states that she can get the numbers from other departments, because it isn't hers.
 
Secret US Policy Blocks Agents From Looking at Social Media of Visa Applicants, Former Official Says. “The revelation comes as members of Congress question why U.S. officials failed to review the social media posts of San Bernardino terrorist Tashfeen Malik. She received a U.S. visa in May 2014, despite what the FBI said were extensive social media messages about jihad and martyrdom.”

So I’ll bet there’s no similar DHS rule against looking at social media of tea partiers. .


there is NO vetting process

Obama Regime Banned Immigration Officials From Looking At Social Media Posts Of Visa Applicants Because It Would Be ‘Invasion Of Their Privacy’

So 14 people are dead because the Obama regime decided looking at a public Facebook was a violation of privacy, and Tashfeen Malik openly posted about jihad. Unbelievable.

Via The Hill:

Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson decided against ending a secret U.S. policy that prohibits immigration officials from reviewing social media posts of foreigners applying for U.S. visas, according to a report by ABC News.

Johnson decided to keep the prohibition in place in early 2014 because he feared a civil liberties backlash and “bad public relations,” according to ABC.
“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 undersecretary at the Department of Homeland Security for intelligence and analysis, told ABC News.

One current and one former senior counterterrorism official confirmed Cohen’s account to ABC.

A DHS spokesman told ABC News that in the fall of 2014 after Cohen left, the department began three pilot programs to include social media in vetting, but officials say it’s still not a widespread policy and a review is underway.

The policy’s revelation comes after U.S. officials learned that Tashfeen Malik, one of the San Bernardino shooters, posted a message on Facebook declaring allegiance to the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria; 14 people were killed.

Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) demanded Sunday that the U.S. immediately start a program to review social media sites of those admitted on visas.

“Had they checked out Tashfeen Malik … maybe those people in San Bernardino would be alive,” he said, according to ABC News.

Cohen said he and other U.S. officials had pressed for a policy change in 2014 but top officials with the DHS’s Office of Civil Liberties and the Office of Privacy opposed it.

“The primary concern was that it would be viewed negatively if it was disclosed publicly and there were concerns that it would be embarrassing,” Cohen said in an interview with “Good Morning America.”

“There is no excuse for not using every resource at our disposal to fully vet individuals before they come to the United States,” he added.

Another former senior counterterrorism official vouched for Cohen’s retelling: “They felt looking at public postings [of foreign U.S. visa applicants] was an invasion of their privacy.”
 
Terrorists have more rights than Americans.

Does anyone think for one minute the IRS wouldn't use social media to investigate
someone?

More Bizzarro World behavior from an impotent and incompetent administration.

Insanity is the new normal.
