The Trump administration has repeatedly insisted on extreme vetting for people coming into the country on national security grounds but failed to apply the same requirements to a man with direct access to the president and his family.
Wednesday was the last day Rob Porter worked as the White House staff secretary, after physical abuse allegations against him by his ex-wives years ago became public.
[...]
Porter operated on a temporary security clearance. The various kinds of immigrants that the White House has been calling out, on the other hand, appear to be better vetted than him.
President Donald Trump once said that Syrian refugees entering the United States have no documentation whatsoever. Yet refugees undergo an 18-to-24-month-long screening process before they can step foot into the country. The process includes background checks, interviews with several federal agencies, and biometrics checks.
