Security Risks from Naturalized Citizens Raise Concerns

Source: Fox News

Summary

Ryan Mauro, president of the Mauro Institute, warned on Fox News that the United States is vulnerable to security risks from naturalized citizens from hostile foreign lands. He stated that the government cannot monitor constitutionally protected free speech and opinions of naturalized citizens indefinitely due to legal reasons and lack of resources. This month, the US experienced four attacks with ties to naturalized citizenship, sparking concerns about the vetting process. Mauro’s institute is not constrained by federal law and has set up a civilian intelligence team to vet potential terrorist ideology of naturalized citizens.

As expected, the matter has reached another stage.

The US government is limited in monitoring naturalized citizens’ free speech and opinions. Ryan Mauro’s institute takes a different approach, combing through social media to identify potential terrorist supporters. The process of citizenship revocation is a hotly debated topic, with the US experiencing four terror attacks this month. Mauro’s team reports suspected terrorists, but the government faces challenges in revoking citizenship due to the distinction between “membership” and “affiliation” with terrorist organizations. The State Department, FBI, and Department of Homeland Security were reached for comment.

The “jihad Olympics” continues, with Sunni and Shiite radicals competing for attention and Allah’s blessing.
