Thong Vang is an illegal alien, a child rapist and the man who shot two correction officers in Fresno, California last Saturday, placing both in critical condition. He is a member of the notorious Mongolian Boys Society gang. He can thank Hillary Clinton for allowing him to remain in the country after his arrest and conviction for kidnapping and raping three girls ages 12 to 14. He took them to a Motel 8 and he and other men and boys took turns raping them for two days.
Vang was sentenced in 1998 and sent to prison. He was given parole in 2014 and the sex slaver was released back onto the streets. In 2011, Hillary signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Department of Homeland Security to put pressure on countries to accept their criminals back. She never did that. She lied.
The fault really belongs to the DHS. When they made the request they failed to pay her or Bill a six figure amount to give a 20 minute speech and contributed absolutely nothing to the Clinton Foundation. How could they expect to compete with Saudi Arabia, Boeing or Goldman Sachs for her time and energies?
Center for Immigration Studies’ Jessica Vaughan said:
Federal law requires that the U.S. impose visa sanctions on countries that won’t take back their citizens, Laos is one of the most uncooperative countries in the world in terms of taking back its citizens. In 2011, Hillary Clinton signed a formal agreement between the State Department and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that pledged she would take action and put diplomatic pressure on uncooperative countries to take back their citizens, but instead Clinton’s State Department gave Laos a pass on this issue.
Ian Smith, an attorney with the nonpartisan Immigration Reform Law Institute said:
Under federal law, there already exists a requirement to use visa sanctions in order to do that. Under the Obama Administration, Secretary Hillary Clinton said that the State Department would use the MoU to work with DHS to pressure countries to remove its citizens. But her State Department did nothing with regards to Laos. They refused over and over again to invoke targeted visa sanctions on the nation. They just kept handing out visas for the people of Laos, even though Laos was refusing to take back any of their criminals who were in our country.
Vaughn explained:
Clinton refused to use this very sharply focused tool [i.e. visa sanctions] to try to get Laos to take back convicted criminals, and as a result Americans have gotten hurt. There’s a public safety cost for her refusal to act on this… If she had done her job and complied with the law while she was Secretary of State, this criminal [Vang] more than likely would have been deported in 2014, just as ICE wanted, and he wouldn’t have been here to shoot up a jail waiting room.
It was a win/win/win for Hillary. Win because a criminal illegal wasn’t deported. Win because two officers were shot and could die. Win because it shows that if you don’t pay, you don’t play.
