DONATION REWARDS BELOW

last post "$1300 might be a huge obstacle for me to get my degree, and with this amount, I might not be able to complete the education that the war stole from me. I'm Mahmoud, and I've helped 400 students from Gaza complete their education. Now, I'm the one who needs your help. I hope that, as we know, the reward will be commensurate with the deed, and that someone will come to help me as I did."

I'd like to talk to you about our "Vetting" process for people from "underdeveloped" (3rd World) nations. Because I am seeing a lot of people going on and on about good these people are vetted and no one is really talking about the process in a place like Afghanistan.

I started doing this type of thing in 1989 when Biometric generation was considered fingerprint cards and mug shot photos. By the time I left it was full body digital scans, DNA, Iris scans and so much more. I have seen the system from mostly hand generated data retrieval like fingerprint cards and microfiche where entire departments of people were dedicated to just data generation and retrieval that could take weeks to almost instantaneous electronic/AI data retrieval. Now, let's talk about the “vetting process” here in the United States or most "Developed" (First World) nations. In the U.S., your "Biometric Data" (BD) starts at birth or close to birth. Biometric Data is any data that can be used to identify you and only you to within a very fine margin of error. Some of the BD is your physical attributes at birth. Missing or deformed body parts, cleft lip/pallet, distinctive birthmarks and so on. Then the electronic BD starts, Social Security numbers are generated, birth certificates*, medical records, insurance claims, you are now attached to your parents’ names and SSN's. This is where all the connective tissue of the biometric net starts. It only expands the older you get. School registration, doctors’ visits, vaccination records, blood samples, police encounters, 911 calls, citations, school transcripts, power bills, rental and/or mortgage agreements, bank accounts, on line accounts, photos, the list is longer than most folks comprehend. All of these records are obtained fairly easily. Other things like voice pattern, DNA samples, Iris scans, full physiological profiles, face and hand geometry, typing cadence, how you walk (gait), timeliness (I think this is the wrong word) patterns, takes time and long term active observation and a lot of recourses to develop. In Western Nations active surveillance nets are everywhere, a lot of this is pulled easily with the right access, but it is still nowhere as good as active human intelligence gathering and observations.

Some new ICE recruits have shown up to training without full vetting

The recruits have had criminal backgrounds or failed drug tests or were unable to meet physical or academic standards, raising concerns about the agency’s rush to hire immigration officers, sources told NBC News.

WASHINGTON — Immigration and Customs Enforcement has placed new recruits into its training program before they have completed the agency’s vetting process, an unusual sequence of events as it rushes to hire federal immigration officers to carry out President Donald Trump’s mass deportation policy, a current and two former Homeland Security Department officials told NBC News.

ICE officials only later discovered that some of the recruits failed drug testing, have disqualifying criminal backgrounds or don’t meet the physical or academic requirements to serve, the sources said.
