Wallace Let s get ░░░░░░░░ this very practical problem ░░░░░░░░ protecting the homeland and ░░░░░░░░ concern as you raised ░░░░░░░░ Senator Johnson that along ░░░░░░░░ an overwhelming number of ░░░░░░░░ good faith refugees you ░░░░░░░░ have potential terrorists who ░░░░░░░░ coming into the country ░░░░░░░░ in to launch attacks ░░░░░░░░ the U S homeland ░░░░░░░░ re the chairman of ░░░░░░░░ Senate Homeland Security Committee ░░░░░░░░ as you pointed out ░░░░░░░░ takes 18 months to ░░░░░░░░ years now to vet ░░░░░░░░ single person coming into ░░░░░░░░ country Could we handle ░░░░░░░░ 000 let alone 50 ░░░░░░░░ Johnson No it s ░░░░░░░░ to be very difficult ░░░░░░░░ again what we have ░░░░░░░░ do is face the ░░░░░░░░ of situation that President ░░░░░░░░ s strategy of peace ░░░░░░░░ withdrawal has been a ░░░░░░░░ failure And so our ░░░░░░░░ of involvement what we ░░░░░░░░ to be talking about ░░░░░░░░ assembling a coalition to ░░░░░░░░ and save lives in ░░░░░░░░ situation in Syria This ░░░░░░░░ been going on for ░░░░░░░░ years Wallace But sir ░░░░░░░░ Again Wallace Sir and ░░░░░░░░ I will get excuse ░░░░░░░░ I will get to ░░░░░░░░ in a minute but ░░░░░░░░ specific problem first of ░░░░░░░░ I m a he ░░░░░░░░ little surprised why does ░░░░░░░░ take two years to ░░░░░░░░ a refugee I don ░░░░░░░░ know what you re ░░░░░░░░ for two years and ░░░░░░░░ could you handle that ░░░░░░░░ know as we have ░░░░░░░░ doing it for 1 ░░░░░░░░ 1500 Could you do ░░░░░░░░ for 10 000 Johnson ░░░░░░░░ Wallace Or 50 000 ░░░░░░░░ Again part of the ░░░░░░░░ is normally when you ░░░░░░░░ talking about refugees we ░░░░░░░░ have assets in the ░░░░░░░░ in the countries to ░░░░░░░░ doing interviews checking the ░░░░░░░░ watch lists being doing ░░░░░░░░ know doing personal interviews ░░░░░░░░ it s a process ░░░░░░░░ you want to be ░░░░░░░░ that does take time ░░░░░░░░ you maybe can cut ░░░░░░░░ the time but you ░░░░░░░░ reduce the number of ░░░░░░░░ and the thoroughness of ░░░░░░░░ the investigation needs to ░░░░░░░░ but here s part ░░░░░░░░ the problem You know ░░░░░░░░ these refugees start flowing ░░░░░░░░ Europe now you have ░░░░░░░░ waiver programs it s ░░░░░░░░ to be a lot ░░░░░░░░ for them to hop ░░░░░░░░ Europe into America And ░░░░░░░░ if you really are ░░░░░░░░ about our national security ░░░░░░░░ a look at the ░░░░░░░░ of our south western ░░░░░░░░ which is even a ░░░░░░░░ glaring risk to our ░░░░░░░░ security So we have ░░░░░░░░ a big mess on ░░░░░░░░ hands and we are ░░░░░░░░ not facing up to ░░░░░░░░
