【Sister】

Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach met with president-elect Donald Trump today to share his secret plan for America—and accidentally disclosed parts of that plan to the world.

Twitter user @southpaw zoomed in on Sisterthis photo of Kobach, who was meeting with Trump at the Trump International Golf Club where the PEOTUS is currently filling out his Presidential cabinet. Unfortunately for Kobach, he forgot to close his highly confidential folder, revealing the frightening contents therein.

While Kobach's hand and jacket obscured much of the content, here's what we could transcribe, and a brief translation of each proposal.

A callback to a Bush-era de facto Muslim registry

1. "Update and introduce the NSEERS screening and tracking system (National Security Entry-Exit Registration System) that was in place from 2002 - 2005. All aliens from high risk areas are tracked."

Kobach appears to be referring to the Bush-era program, a de facto Muslim registry which tracked immigrants from Muslim-majority countries, which resulted in sweeping deportations of Muslim immigrants.

"Extreme vetting" of immigrants (especially Muslim immigrants)

2. "Add extreme vetting for high-risk aliens, questioning them regarding their support for Sharia law, jihad, equality of men and women, and the United States Constitutions."

Kobach again appears to be targeting Muslim immigrants here, by focusing on "Sharia law," for example, without ever saying the word "Muslim" explicitly. This looks eerily close to the Muslim ban Trump promised to institute throughout his campaign.

"Reduce intake of Syrian refugees to zero"

A plan to stop Syrian refugees from immigrating to America

3. "Reduce intake of Syria refugees to zero, using authority under the 1980 refugee act."

There are an estimated 4.8 million Syrian refugees worldwide, and 6.6 million have been displaced internally in Syria. A million have requested asylum in Europe. Obama accepted 10,000 Syrian refugees into America. Kobach appears to want to take that number down to zero.

A possible plan to deport certain immigrants arrested for any crime, of any level

Under a section labeled "Record number of criminal aliens in the first year," Kobach's proposal reads:

4. "193,000 criminal removal cases dropped by the Obama Administration . . . guidance memoranda adopted by Obama Administration; its new guidance…. criminal alien” as any alien arrested for any crime, and any gang member . . . repatriate their citizens who have committed crimes in the Unites States."

Parts of this section are obscured by Kobach's hand. However, it appears that the Secretary is suggesting that "aliens"—which include documented and undocumented immigrants—should be repatriated for having committed "any crime," regardless of degree. On 60 Minutes Sunday, Kobach claimed (counter to this proposal) that the definition of deportable offenses would be expanded "to include “any felony” and then perhaps those arrested but not yet convicted in some cases," Politico writes.

Kobach seemed to imply that immigrants who have been arrested—but not yet convicted of a crime—could also potentially be deported.

Under the Obama administration, the president often dropped cases against deportable immigrants if they weren't considered priorities.

A reference to Trump's plan to build a wall

5. "in addition to the 386 miles of existing actual wall wishing …entire 1,989 miles planned for rapid build . . . the PATRIOT Act to prevent illegal aliens . . . immediately to forestall future lawsuits."

Kobach appears to be referring to Trump's plan to build a greater wall against Mexico. Aspects of the Patriot Act expired in June that made it harder for NSA to collect telephone metadata on millions of Americas, use a roving wiretap to track terror suspects, and use national security tools against those terrorists who couldn't be connected to a larger group.

Something incredibly sketchy about voter rolls

Under a section appeared to be titled, "Stop," Kobach writes:

6. "Issue . . . voter rolls. Direct the Department of Just . . . Draft amendments to the National Voter."

Kobach's jacket obscures much of the text here. However, many have raised concerns that the Trump administration and potential future Attorney General Jeff Sessions seek to disenfranchise eligible voters. Kobach himself was ordered by a Kansas Judge earlier this year to stop his "two-tiered voter registration system" which affected the right to vote for "18,000" eligible Kansans.

It's unclear what position, if any, Trump is considering Kobach for, though some have speculated Kobach will work closely with the president-elect on immigration.
