Joseph Kidwell | PentecostalTheology.comI appreciate President Trump’s Executive Order which resulted in deporting this Syrian Christian family who actually supported Trump. This Executive Order will certainly make us safer by deporting families like this. They are clearly a threat to national security.

It may happen! We are unfortunately in a war and unforeseen thing will happen.

I appreciate you’re concern for this Christian family.

Joseph Kidwell — do you agree that no US President should ever have the ability to prevent those from certain countries to enter the US?
In other words, if some US President decided to issue an executive order forcing refugees fleeing Communist Cuba to return to that country you would steadfastly oppose it?
Joseph Kidwell
The issue as far as I’m concerned is that it was not well thought out. Supposedly, exceptions were carved out for Christians & other religious minorities, but someone missed the memo when it came to this family.Also, the treatment of people with green cards was illegal. I certainly agree with stringent vetting, but when a translator from Iraq who risked his life by working with the U.S.A. and who went through a two year vetting process was sent back from Cairo with his family after they had sold their house and left every thing behind, that undermines our efforts in the Middle East. Why would any Arab help us after what happened to him? I posted this with obvious sarcasm to demonstrate the utter ridiculousness of this Executive Order. To answer you’re question, the President does have the authority nto limit refugees coming into this country, but it must be within the confines of the U.S. Constitution.

People that been to the swamp know the smell.

I would take what the Washington Post prints with a grain of salt. They have proved it in the past that they have been to the swamp with their bias secular liberal view’s.

Troy Day God is in control!! It is easy to voice our own opinions in the flesh without knowing the real truth behind the scenes. Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

I cannot tell if you really mean this or if this is tongue in cheek.
