This morning on C-Span Washington Journal, Harry Alford, a minority business owner and a member of the board of the national Chamber of Commerce spoke about the status of black-owned businesses in the U.S. It got interesting when he mentioned international trade and that they’d found a “philanthropy” (read Foundation) that wanted to develop infrastructure in Africa and the mechanism they intend to use is the EB-5 visa.
The EB-5 visa program essentially sells American citizenship to foreigners for an investment of $ 1 million in large cities or $500k in rural area.
In 2010, it was discovered that Governor Butch Otter had a plan to expand Idaho’s GDP by $6 billion by selling American citizenship through the EB-5 visa program. His plan was called Project 60. It was discovered in conjunction with research on a specially designated area called The CORE. Brenda Sherwood, Economic Development Specialist for the city of Meridian said that The CORE was an EB-5 Regional Center.
The CORE was discovered when a 23-person delegation from Communist China arrived to look over the area to see if they wanted to invest in The CORE through the EB-5 visa program which meant that Butch Otter was intending to sell $6 billion worth of EB-5 visas which translates to selling $6 billion of tickets to American citizenship.
After one particularly heated meeting of the Republican Committee here in Twin Falls in which a representative of Gov. Otter denied that they were selling citizenship, another article was written titled EB-5 Investor Visa – Buying American Citizenship that has more information on the EB-5 visa program.
The thing to pay attention to in the above video is the triangulation of the money between the European “philanthropy” and the EB-5 visa, American infrastructure and African infrastructure.
The EB-5 Regional Centers, Targeted Employment Areas come together when you add intermodal commerce zones which in effect, create an inland port with the interstate highway system becoming in effect, shipping lanes for international commerce. The technology for these zones under the guise of Port Security is the Fusion Center systems for police state surveillance.
This gets deep, but with the foreign investment money, what you end up with is a deadly embrace with foreign control of your infrastructure through the technology investments in the zones that are the hubs for the global economy. That’s the reason for the triangulation on the financing.

First I’ve heard of this, and thanks to this gentleman for publishing this exposure.
I’m going to follow this outrageous example of unauthorized American citizens dealing
our resources without knowledge or permission of those entrusted with the proper authority.
It is but another attempt, this is how Obama rules and he has laid the groundwork and set the tone for illegal, unconstitutional manipulation of our interests to satisfy the goals of his unethical convictions.

The EB-5 Visa program was established with the Immigration Act of 1990 along with a lot of other visa types. The last decade of the millennium seems to have been the timeframe to unravel the American government – to be replaced by the global governance structure. What I mean by global governance structure is a system that disintegrates and ultimately will eliminate nation-states.
Here is a link to my other website where I have a copy of the Immigration Act of 1990 posted with a couple of other – equally bad pieces of legislation. I called the page, Invitation to Terror: http://www.channelingreality.com/Vicky_Rants/Invitation_to_Terror.htm
Do you remember in 2005? We had a surge of mass migration from Mexico. That subsided and a lot of them went back to Mexico. Then when Obama came into office, his administration has been engaged in importing people from the Middle East.

Excellent that you posted the CSPAN interview to YouTube with the ‘correct’ title–cutting to the core issue with “EB-5 Visas — Selling American Citizenship to Build African Infrastructure”

It’s very insidious how this financial scheme is operating. If we had a Justice Department, they would be investigating it but we don’t. They are part of the criminal syndicate.

Foreign investor visaEB-5 foreign investor visa program susceptible to fraud, misuse: GAO
Published 19 August 2015

The United States has launched dozens of investigations into fraudulent practices in a program, called EB-5, which grants Green Cards to foreigners who invest $500,000 in selected U.S. ventures. A GAO report notes that the program is vulnerable to fraud, because many of the applicants care less about the success of the venture in which they invest and more about getting the Green Card, and can easily afford to lose $500,000 in order to get the card.
The United States has launched dozens of investigations into fraudulent practices in a program, called EB-5, which grants Green Cards to foreigners who invest $500,000 in selected U.S. ventures. A Government Accountability Office (GAO) audit said the U.S. immigration service “faces significant challenges in its efforts to detect and mitigate fraud risks.”
The GAO report details efforts by DHS to deal with the problems plaguing the EB-5 program.
The report found that between January 2013 and 2015, the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) received more than 100 “tips, complaints and referrals of possible securities fraud” connected to the EB-5 program, and there are currently fifty-nine open investigations by different agencies into alleged EB-5 scams.”

apologies for the errors in comment, no way to edit. Copy paste from article unfortunately included side bar text. What is worth reading is the GAO report also
” What GAO Found
The Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) administers the Employment-Based Fifth Preference Immigrant Investor Program (EB-5 Program) and collaborated with its interagency partners to assess fraud and national security risks in the program in fiscal years 2012 and 2015. Unique fraud risks identified in the program included uncertainties in verifying that the funds invested were obtained lawfully and various investment-related schemes to defraud investors. These assessments were onetime efforts; however, USCIS officials noted that fraud risks in the EB-5 Program are constantly evolving, and they continually identify new fraud schemes. USCIS does not have documented plans to conduct regular future risk assessments, in accordance with fraud prevention practices, which could help inform efforts to identify and address evolving program risks.”
