The numbers have  Nielsen  asking for more scrutiny on those looking to immigrate here as refugees  and defending President Trumpâs comments on tougher screening for immigrants.
âThese changes will not only improve security but importantly they will help us better assist refugees fleeing persecution â  she  said.
 She  also believes that the border security Trump has proposed  such as the wall  is an integral part of keeping America safe.
âWe cannot let this moment slip away. Now is the time â  she  said. âWe cannot afford to kick the can down the road any farther.â
 Nielsen  noted that many of the terrorist attacks dating back five years can be traced back to lax screening processes put in place by the Obama administration:
 Ms. Nielsen  said past administrations had not been as strenuous in attempting to weed out would-be terrorists as the current one  and pointed to a string of attacks dating back five years â to the heart of the Obama administration. And  she  again cited a controversial administration report that found of more than 500 people convicted of terrorism-related crimes in U.S. courts since 2001  three-quarters were foreign-born.

 Rookie Leonard Fournette  hasn't looked the same since spraining  his  right ankle against the Los Angeles Rams in mid-October.  He  ran for 181 and 130 yards in consecutive weeks against the Steelers and the Rams  respectively  and broke off long touchdown runs in both games.
 He 's topped the century mark twice — both barely — since.
"It's who we are " Bortles said. "We want to be able to run the football and do it different ways  so we have to figure it out  whether it's a during-the-week practice thing or execution thing on Sundays. ... It's a big part of  our  offense and who  we  are and who  we  want to be  so it's important that  we  figure it out."

Q: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Signa ? (Reuters) - Saks Fifth Avenue owner Hudsonâs Bay Co (HBC.TO) said on Wednesday it had received a bid for its German department store chain Kaufhof from  Signa  Holding  the Austrian property and retail group that owns Karstadt  another German retail chain.
The announcement came after Reuters reported earlier on Wednesday  citing sources  that  Signa  had made a 3 billion euro ($3.5 billion) offer for Kaufhof. Hudsonâs Bay did not comment on the bidâs value  and  Signa  declined to comment.
 Signaâs offer  comes one week after Hudsonâs Bay agreed to sell its flagship Lord & Taylor building in New York for $850 million to WeWork Cos.
The Reuters sources said that  Signa  expects Toronto-based Hudsonâs Bay  which has been reluctant so far to engage in negotiations to sell Kaufhof  to respond to  the offer  by the middle of November.
Hudsonâs Bay called  the offer  incomplete  non-binding and unsolicited  with no evidence of financing.
The sources said that in its offer letter to Hudsonâs Bay   Signa  stated  its  bid for Kaufhof would not be contingent on any third-party financing  since  it  already has 700 million euros in approved financing from European banks  and also has cash available from a 1 billion euro equity raise last month.
 Signa  has also offered to assume all of Kaufhofâs liabilities  including a 1.34 billion euro real estate loan by German bank LBBW  the sources added.
Hudsonâs Bay said it plans to review  the offer  in due course. It added that its European business is an important element of the companyâs strategy  and that it remains focused on executing its strategy and plans for the upcoming holiday season.
At a valuation of 3 billion euros including debt  Signaâs bid values Kaufhofâs real estate at 2.63 billion euros  the sources said.
Signa tried to buy Kaufhof in 2015  but Hudsonâs Bay outbid it by paying 2.5 billion euros including debt for the German chain and its Belgian subsidiary. Since then  Kaufhofâs finances have deteriorated  to the point where vendors are finding it more difficult to find trade credit insurance to make shipments.
âHudsonâs Bay board of directors should  consistent with its fiduciary duties  seriously consider the reported  Signa  fully financed 3.0 billion euro offer for Hudsonâs Bay European business  which is above the Companyâs purchase price and stated net asset value â Lands and Buildings CEO Jonathan Litt said in a statement.
 Privately held Signa   founded 17 years ago by property developer Rene Benko  now runs more than 125 retail locations in Northern Europe  generating annual revenue of about 3.8 billion euros  according to  its  website.  It  owns a big real estate portfolio with a gross asset value of more than 10 billion euros.
 Signa  bought Karstadt from the brink of bankruptcy in 2014 for the nominal consideration of just one euro from  its  majority owner Nicolas Berggruen  son of an international art dealer.
 Signa  restored Karstadt to profitability: realigning  its  offerings closer to the tastes of German consumers  cutting costs and making operations more efficient. Karstadt and Kaufhof are now the two largest department store operators in Germany.
Last month   Signa  said  it  had completed an equity raise of 1 billion euros  giving  it  more firepower to pursue acquisitions.
