President Obama incorrectly stated in his speech tonight that Cali terror Mom Tashfeen Malik did not enter the country on a visa.
She did.
According to Politico:
“In announcing one of the new steps his administration is taking to secure the U.S. from terrorists, President Barack Obama’s carefully scripted Sunday night address to the nation included at least one mistake.
Obama said he’d requested a review of the “visa waiver program” under which one of the San Bernardino attackers arrived in the United States. But that assailant, Tashfeen Malik, came under a fiancé visa; she didn’t arrive under the program that waives a visa requirement.
“I’ve ordered the departments of State and Homeland Security to review the visa waiver program under which the female terrorist in San Bernardino originally came to this country,” Obama said in the prime-time address.
White House officials confirmed after the speech that the president was supposed to say “visa program,” but apparently the word “waiver” also slipped through. The official transcript includes a correction.”
