“Trump: We’ve Already Started Process of Ending Visa Lottery that Allowed Suspected NYC Terrorist into U.S.,” by John Binder, Breitbart, December 8, 2017:
President Donald Trump says his administration has “already started the process” of ending the Diversity Visa Lottery program, whereby 50,000 visas are randomly allotted every year to foreign nationals from a multitude of countries.
During a speech in Pensacola, Florida, Trump reaffirmed his opposition to the Visa Lottery, saying:
We want a system that is merit-based. They come in on merit, they don’t come in on a lottery system. How about the lottery system? Folks did you see that? That’s the guy in New York City. The lottery system where they put names in a bin… so what they do, I would say but more than just say, they take their worst and they put them in the bin and then when they pick the lottery, they have the real worst in their hands… and we end up getting them.
No more lottery system. We’re going to end that. We’ve already started the process.
We want people coming into our country who love our people, support our economy and embrace our values. It’s time to get our priorities straight.
Trump was referring to Uzbek national and alleged Islamic terrorist Sayfullo Saipov who entered the U.S. in 2010 through the Visa Lottery program. Saipov, in November, allegedly murdered eight individuals in New York City when he ran them over in the street using a rental car, police say.
As Breitbart News reported, Roughly 509,700 foreign nationals have entered the U.S. between 2005 to 2015 using the Visa Lottery program, not counting their spouses, children, and chain-migration relatives.
The U.S. has even brought in 25,976 co-nationals of suspected jihadi Sayfullo Saipov, despite their country of Uzbekistan being listed by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency as a terrorist hotspot.
Requirements for foreign nationals to win the visa lottery are low, with the foreign national only needing a high school degree and two years of work experience. Despite the weak prerequisites needed to obtain the visa, foreign nationals obtain green cards to permanently stay in the U.S. and, after living in the country for five years, can become U.S. citizens and begin bringing their extended relatives to the country – a system known as “chain migration.”
Due to the process known as “chain migration” — whereby new immigrants to the U.S. are allowed to bring an unlimited amount of foreign relatives to the country with them, even if they do not have English-speaking skills, job skills, or cannot support themselves — Visa Lottery winners have been allowed to bring nearly four million of their foreign relatives with them to the U.S. since 1994, Breitbart News reported.
Every year, close to 200,000 chain migrants are brought in by prior-year lottery winners, adding to the huge legal and illegal immigrant population that now stands at a record 44 million. Every two new immigrants brings approximately seven foreign relatives with them.
Even if the lottery visa program is shut down in 2017, prior arrivals will continue to bring in more unscreened family chain-migrants unless the Congress also complies with President Trump’s call for an end to chain migration.
The visa lottery was created in 1990 by Democratic politicians, including Sen. Chuck Schumer — with support from the business-first wing of the GOP….

What are you nuts once they are in the US they are a protect species by our beloved progressive left ,if left in there own sandbox they kill each other lower the total number world wide. What is there to identify them with??They come from countries with no stable governments , no public records we cannot even be sure of their real countries of origin .We do not even know their true age??Difficult to identify ,do they come with an owners manual and history like a pre own car??We do not even know if they are wanted for rape murder, and mayhem from the hell hole sandbox the escape from? That is why Trump has a list of countries we do not except refugees from because there is no way to vet them.
Savvy Kafir says
Right. There is no way to vet them. We can’t even vet the Muslims who were born & raised in the U.S. — so (some) people are constantly surprised when this one or that one suddenly goes jihadi.
Norger says
His first name, Sayfullo means Sword of Allah. That was a possible clue…..
Walter Sieruk says
First, That murderous Muslim terrorist is a name whose first name means “The sword of Allah, this vicious jihadist who murdered rand maimed all those people in New York City is a man who is a foreigner and entered the USA by a “Diversity Visa” This exposes the dangers, folly and foolishness of such PC Diversity programs.
The need for a national travel ban concerning all those unvetted Muslim migrants who desire to enter the United States of America is very important. This may be yet better explained by one of the fables of Aesop which is entitled THE FARMER AND THE VIPER. So here it is “Once in ancient Greece there was a farmer outside on a very cold winter day walking in if field to make sure that everything is in order and as it should be. The farmer came upon a half-froze viper about to die from the bitter cold. The kind yet foolish farmer took pity on the viper and in an action of kindness put it his is vest jacket to warms and up and thus save its life. The viper warned up revived and then bit farmer through the vest jacket. So the kind but foolish farmer died a slow painful death in awful agony because he felt sorry of the viper and saved it life.” The point to this fable is the no amount of kindness will chance an evil and dangerous nature.
So it may be with those many Muslim immigrants who want to enter the USA. It only takes of few jihadist/vipers inflect jihad terrorism of awful murderous disaster on different cities of this nation.
Second,that jihadist /Muslim whose first name means “The Sword of Allah” who murdered eight people and injured twelve other people in New York City was following the instruction of the “holy book” of Islam, the Quran. For example, the Quran instructs in 9:123 . “O you who believe ! Fight those of the disbelievers who are close to you, and let them find harshness in you…” Maiming and murdering people who are non-Muslim in a jihad truck attack as the jihadist did is a very effective way show non-Muslims “Harshness.” Strange teachings for what some call a “peaceful religion.” Likewise the Quran teaches in 47:4 “When you encounter the disbeliever’s strike off their heads until you make a great slaughter among them…”A truck jihad attack can, for sure, make a greater “slaughter among them than a sword can.” As the Quran also instructs in 2:191. “Kill the disbeliever wherever we find them.”
All the while that jihadist was committing mass murder he was yelling out “Allah Akbar’ meaning “Allah is great” Islam is a false dangerous and deadly religion.
J D S says
President Trump is right to stop Muslims from entering the U.S.by lottery. Well probably by any means…The problem with the ban by country…..There is not enough countries on the ban list.

Food for thought, or:
================
To commence, Fürst Otto von Bismarck: “There is no such thing as a coincidence in politics. Everything is meticulously planned.”
Have you ever wondered why practically the entire western media seems to push nearly simultaneously the same points? For instance, getting rid of cash; yours that is. These campaigns pop up around the same time, and run for nearly the same length of time, about a few weeks. Some headlines, some on page 3 or page 5, or even in the editorial. Common theme, to help you! And to protect you, organized crime and terrorists are using cash, so be afraid. But you will be safer if this can be controlled – incidentally, it also means that you can, and will be, controlled. And, like in certain countries already, your savings and possessions and investments get a negative interest, meaning your monies are being taken from you whilst your monies are available for speculation or covering ‘shortfalls’. By the same independent (independent of you that is) banks that print and distribute money; as if it runs out of fashion. Happens once or twice a year, have you noticed?
Have you ever wondered why practically the entire western media has simultaneously started a ‘jubilation-choir’ when the ‘refugee’ tsunami started? How is it possible that they all reported nearly in the same style, withheld the same information, and showed the same, edited/manipulated pictures? Refugees, cultural enrichers, savers from ageing population, even ‘gold pieces’ (!), et cetera est. All leading in a dance around the same kettle, again and again and again and… Finally the total misleading and falsifying term ‘refugee’ has been universally accepted, even by the opposition!
Have you ever wondered why the entire western media mutually refers to itself as either conservative or liberal? And everyone else is of course right-wing, Nazist, Fascist etc. – and so is the opposition – doesn’t matter where they stand, ultra-right or center, they all are Nazis and ‘fake news’ producers. Making sure that you wont emotionally deviate from the lines of the last ~100 years. After all, you don’t want to be called a Nazi, hmh, what will the neighbors think? Current theme and thrust: Control of the internet to ”protect” you from fake news and hate speech. The likes of May, Merkel, Macron & others are holding speeches, particularly after atrocities by Muslims. One, (numerically ‘1’) sentence in a given speech is to prevent radicalization and the spread of hatred through the internet by “Islamists”, i.e., Muslims; then, in the same speech at least five (numerically ‘5’) sentences about the dangers of right wing propaganda, spread of Nazism, Islamophobia, and so on and so forth. Have you not noticed?
Have you noticed that for every article about national identity there at least five or six major articles in short succession praising the diversity, cultural enrichment etc.? In the same paper! Just different issues. If there is something about those immigrants, colonizers that is, then the blame starts: It’s the fault of the Germans (out comes a Hitler & Mufti picture), nobody else’s fault. And of course, they deserve it, poetic justice. Or it’s the Danes, the Swedes, Brits, etc. etc. Often the implied guilt for this, that and the other. From colonialism right back to the crusades…
Hmh…
Here is a headline from a very conservative German paper: Der Tagesspiegel: “Danke Antifa! (Thanks Antifa!)”. That was about 1 or 1.5 years ago (this present part was written in mid December 2017). Note, Der Tagesspiegel was once a really conservative, very conservative paper. Here is another quote, this from a gentleman by name of Jean-Claude Junker, head of the EU! He said “When it gets serious, one has to lie.” Yes, stated by the boozing boss of the EU. Charming, no? (Source: dpa, April 2011, during the Euro-Crisis). Note, “dpa” is short for “Deutsche Presse Agentur”.
Have you ever noticed that every source which is not mainstream media or government is always denounced as ‘dubious’ when quoted by the mainstream media? No? There’s a lot more, just follow the headlines and their thematic, make lists and date these. It’s as if you are reading only one newspaper. Except for football and tits…
The Nazis had a term for controlled media, they called it “gleichgeschaltet”, loosely translated into “equalized”. Now, have you not noticed the number of primary, mainstream, “news agencies” in the western world? No? There are 9-10 such agencies, from the eastern German border to Hawaii. That’s right, 9-10. Are they “gleichgeschaltet”? No! Of course not, they are, what they call, “syndicated”.
But, who is doing the syndication?!
THINK!
(PS: Sorry for the length)

It is about time.
Peterson says
Which are the visa lottery countries?
WPM says
I think the visa lotto countries are countries that are poor and unstable that America usually do not grant a lot or any visas to we Americans grant a visa to an uneducated , unemployable Islamic savage who cannot work in the modern Western world what could go wrong??Send us your insane criminal minded Islamic males of fighting age that cannot be vetted, they can team up with our own criminal insane Islamics that already became citizens or are hiding in plan sight on expired visas in our sanctuary cities run by our progressives do gooders .
WPM says
It gets better the crazy visa lotto winner with” chain migration “can bring over his whole village with the inbred wedding for 20 generations and narrow gene pool they are all related ,his aunts, uncles favorite grandma ,grandpa ,second wife ect.
Matthieu Baudin says
The strangest migration initiative I’ve ever hear of, seemingly designed to appease the obsession of the Contemporary Left with greater social diversity. It’s taken Trump’s clear mindedness to cut it adrift.
Proud Anti-Islam says
I am glad that Trump knows that the Visa Lottery System does not work. That Muslim moron who caused troubles at NYC need to be deported and all other Muslims need to be deported as well where they come from.
Carolyne says
I am proud that I voted for Donald Trump. He is doing exactly what we elected him to do. How refreshing that a politician keeps his promises.
The left is now in the midst of a coup d’tat against our President. led, IMO, by Barack Hussein Obama. How we could have elected someone with the name of Hussein, I will never understand.
Cheer Bear Girl says
It’s a good start to end the visa lottery program. I just wish Trump would end immigration for 30 years and deport all illegal aliens and so called migrants. Muslims are also south of the border too. I wish it truly was a Muslim ban.
