The Biden administration has yet to present to Congress a report detailing the number of Afghan refugees in the United States and on overseas military bases—in violation of a law that required those disclosures by Dec. 1.
A provision in a government funding bill passed Sept. 30 required Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas to produce a detailed accounting of Afghan refugees both in the United States and abroad to Congress within 60 days. Congress has yet to receive any report from DHS.
The violation of a congressionally mandated deadline comes as more than 124,000 people were airlifted out of Afghanistan by Aug. 30. Of those, the White House says it anticipates up to 95,000 Afghans will be resettled in the United States.
"The Homeland Security Committee has not held a single public hearing on Afghan refugees or DHS oversight. Not one Biden administration official has testified under oath to the Homeland Security Committee on this process, even though the Biden administration has made DHS the lead agency on the resettlement process," Senator James Lankford (R, Okla.), said in a statement. "This is continued unchecked federal taxpayer spending with no oversight and no end in sight."
The report was mandated to provide the exact number of Afghan refugees in the United States, overseas military bases, and third-party countries. DHS was also required to provide "the number of Afghan evacuees at overseas bases or other staging areas who have been flagged as potential security concerns or risks."
In September, two Afghan refugees were arrested on assault charges related to incidents at a Wisconsin military base. The following month, the Biden administration blocked a bipartisan delegation of lawmakers from entering a refugee facility in Qatar.
The Biden administration also refused to make public an annual report of immigrants violating the terms of their visas.

Sounds like you've already given up Bob. So next comes the selling of the wife and kids so you can eat?

Lynn, I am faaar from given up, I will NEVER give up but not as optimistic as I once was. I am old and disabled, frustrated that I am not able to carry the fight to the satanists like I once could!!!!!
In the first place, devildemocommiecrats are above the law (rules for thee not for me), in the second place they brought in thousands of terrorists while leaving our friends to be murder by the terrorists they surrendered Afghanistan to with $85 billion in high tech American equipment, weapons and communications equipment, in the 3rd place they are destroying America so satan and china can stroll in and take over!!!!!
And who among us finds this unexpected, unusual or strange?
Lynn Bryant DeSpain
Agreed
Just like the FDA not wanting to give the numbers on people affected by the shots! Why give information damaging to yourself?
That's all it is.....a cover up.
