No, it's not Huma Abedein and Valerie Jarrett.  Not yet, anyway.  Nevertheless, The Free Beacon has the story.  

Kourani became a naturalized citizen in April 2009, after claiming on his application for naturalization that he was not affiliated with any terrorist organization, a crime which carries a maximum sentence of 25 years.

Kourani engaged in extensive surveillance, according to the complaint against him. The complaint alleges that the surveillance included identifying people associated with the Israel Defense Forces, gathering information about security at U.S. airports, and surveilling U.S. law enforcement and military sites in Manhattan and Brooklyn.

El Debek is also a naturalized American citizen, and the complaint against him alleges that he was recruited to Hezbollah in late 2007 or early 2008. The complaint claims that he began receiving a salary from Hezbollah shortly afterward, and payments continued through 2015.

El Debek is believed to have conducted missions for Hezbollah in Panama and Thailand. In 2011, he traveled to Panama, where he is thought to have assessed security at the Panama Canal and Israeli Embassy and located places to buy explosive precursors.

That's SOME KIND of assimilation, there.  They took those oaths of citizenship damned seriously, didn't they?   At least DOJ is going after these people instead of pandering to them.  About time, methinks.  URR here.
