B....b......b.....but.................didn't Trump say that he was going to stop all the refugees and build a wall that Mexico was going to pay for?

Guess neither one is gonna happen.

And, I find it interesting that Bannon's news agency Breitbart is starting to print unfavorable articles about Trump, guess that means Trump's honeymoon with Bannon is over.

If Breitbart starts to go against Trump, he's done, because that is where most of his base goes to get their news.

From the OP article:

It is unclear if the State Department made this upward adjustment with the knowledge and approval of President Trump. The Department of Justice, however, was apparently consulted.

“A State Department spokeswoman, speaking on the condition of anonymity because she was not authorized to discuss the issue publicly, said the department had consulted the Department of Justice about its refugee quotas and had decided to adjust them,” the Timesreported.

As of May 24, 45,533 refugees have been admitted to the United States in FY 2017, which began on October 1, 2016. Earlier this week, Breitbart News estimated that if the refugee entry rate continued at the level of 817 per week (the rate of the four most recent weeks), the total number of refugees admitted to the United States in FY 2017 by September 30 would be 60,672.
​

these are still trivial numbers compared to what Shillary would have brought in, and methinks Trump will take action to halt the rise once he is aware of it.

Fake News.

I guess you forgot to read the fucking article.
It says the State Department made this decision.....most likely without Trump's approval.
The reason I question it so much is this is yet again another New York Times article that cannot be verified.

In her email, Jennifer L. Smith, a department official, wrote that the refugee groups could begin bringing people to the United States “unconstrained by the weekly quotas that were in place.”

It is unclear if the State Department made this upward adjustment with the knowledge and approval of President Trump. The Department of Justice, however, was apparently consulted.

“A State Department spokeswoman, speaking on the condition of anonymity because she was not authorized to discuss the issue publicly, said the department had consulted the Department of Justice about its refugee quotas and had decided to adjust them,” the Times reported.



“Betraying the voters who elected Donald Trump, the Department of State slipped the news to the contractors on Thursday who then slipped the news to the New York Times just as you were packing up for the beach or getting ready for a family barbecue using the federal government’s favorite holiday weekend trick to bury the news,” Corcoran added.


In contrast, the voluntary agencies [VOLAGs] who are paid by taxpayers more than $1 billion annually to resettled refugees under the program praised the State Department’s decision, but also want more in FY 2018.

The NYT is only rivaled in its fake news by CNN. As to which is worse, it changes from day to day.
