Unvetted Afghan refugees allowed to leave Wisconsin military base unsupervised: Rep. Tiffany
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
Rep. Tom Tiffany, R- WI, discussed his recent trip to Fort McCoy, an Army installation in central Wisconsin, in an appearance on "Tucker Carlson Tonight" Monday, where he sounded the alarm over insufficient security on the Wisconsin military base that currently houses more than 2,000 Afghan refugees.
"It appears the Biden administration is doubling down by bringing people who are unvetted into our country," Tiffany told Carlson.
The lawmaker said he was stunned to find that none of the refugees he encountered entered the United States on a Special Immigration Visa, [SIV] which requires a thorough vetting process that can take up to two years.
"They were all there on parole," Tiffany said. "The parole authority is granted to the secretary of the Department of Homeland Security. He can just wave people in," he explained, charging the administration with "circumventing the SIV process."
What concerned Tiffany more, he said, was that unvetted refugees were allowed to come and go as they pleased.
"People could leave the base…without the authority of the general that is overseeing Fort McCoy," he said.
Tiffany acknowledged while "there are Afghans that should be able to come into our country…these people are not being vetted thoroughly."
"They should go to a third, a safe third party country…or someplace like that and be vetted there. If they get through the vetting they should be able to come in," he said.
"84% of the people that in the first quarter of this year that tried to get an SIV in Afghanistan, they were rejected. Only 16% were able to get in. This has to be a thorough vetting process," he said. "The Biden administration is circumventing it."

The important thing is that we get as many people in from all parts of the third world as possible/s
You must be a nervous wreck by now.
No John, it's the democrats doing all the sweating right now
What next?
Ron Klain and Susan Rice better hope it's not another attack on American soil.
Tom Tiffany sounds like a nut job.
Believe it or not, I knew you were going to say something like that.
He's the nut job? How about the one you said you'd vote for 5 times?
Tom Tiffany is a traitor that doesnt even belong in Congress. After he resigns I'll listen to him about something else.
Right after Biden and Harris resign John.
O goody, now we can get back to bashing refugees on the Fear Factor set.
Oh good, something else for the human fuck up machines in the White House to oversee. Their track record is sterling so far; so what could go wrong with bringing over a bunch of people from Afghanistan and allowing them to do whatever they hell they want when they haven't been fully vetted yet?
So people went from Biden was not doing enough to take people out of Afghanistan to we don't want them here.
That took all of five minutes...
Can't read or comprehend? They are supposed to be vetted; which can take up to two years. Allowing them to freely roam around with minimal security what could go wrong. I mean it isn't like they evacuated any anyone on the no fly list./S
So you want to hold them in detention camps for up to two years.
That about sums it all on up...
Nothing like bringing the Taliban CONUS.
They should go to a third, a safe third party country…or someplace like that and be vetted there.
Read: they should be somebody else’s problem while we figure out how to keep them out permanently.
Same ones bitching we left some Afghani friends behind lose their minds if they are welcomed here.
