Dem Senator Falsely Claims No Individuals From Travel Ban Countries Committed Terrorist Acts in U.S.

Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D., Md.) falsely claimed on Friday that no individuals from the seven countries on President Trump's temporary travel ban had committed terrorist acts on United States soil.

"It was pure demagoguery and fear mongering for the president to suggest that this was somehow going to make us safer," Van Hollen added.

Van Hollen's claim is contradicted by a list released Wednesday by the Trump administration that included 24 examples of refugees and other immigrants from Somalia, Sudan, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Syria, and Libya arrested on terror-related charges, Fox News reported.

    The White House document itself names 10 individuals from Somalia, six from Iraq, one from Yemen, two from Sudan, two from Iran, two from Libya and one from Syria. The cases span the last eight years, and include most recently a case in June in which two Somali refugees were jailed for conspiring to commit murder in Syria on behalf of ISIS.

    It also includes a case from March of last year, where a Yemeni native who became a U.S. citizen was sentenced to 22 years in prison for attempting to provide "material support" to ISIS and planning to shoot and kill members of the U.S. military who had returned from Iraq.

I think Charlie Rangel was one of the earliest to make this stupid claim. A FB friend posted the meme 2 or 3 or ?? weeks ago and I compiled a pretty decent response with 5 or 10 minutes of Googling. If I can do it that quickly, the meme is seriously STOOOOOOOOpid!

Protesters at Ohio State University are upset that police killed the student responsible for last month's terrorist attack on campus as he was trying to stab others, calling him a victim of police violence.

On Nov. 28, Ohio State student Abdul Razak Ali Artan rammed his car into a crowd of pedestrians before charging people with a butcher knife, sending 11 to the hospital.

Abdul Razak Ali Artan was a Somali refugee.   :censored:
