ICE has the chance to catch Jose Antonio Vargas RIGHT NOW
Hotair ^ | 07/13/2014 | Jazz Shaw

It’s somewhat ironic that CNN is, today, touting the premier of their new show The Hunt (with John Walsh) tonight at the same time as they are still featuring the documentary Documented by Jose Antonio Vargas. The irony – since they seem oblivious to it – is that the former is a show dedicated to catching criminals who are on the loose, while the latter is produced by one of the people we should ostensibly be looking for. Vargas is in the country illegally, and yet somehow appears on multiple television programs, produces films and seems to earn a fine living writing for multiple political outlets.

The office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) would, one might assume, have a particular interest in this case. After all, they actually had their hands on Vargas back in 2012 but chose to let him go. I will commit the sin of quoting myself here, because at the time I noted the following:

Mr. Vargas appears to be in the country illegally by his own admission on multiple occasions. (I can find no source stating otherwise or any indication that he’s gotten into any sort of DREAMER documentation or what have you, but stand ready to edit this if that’s not true.) With that in mind, it does leave one with what seems a pertinent observation. Okay… we get that you can’t find and deport 20 million people. But it seems like you could have found this guy without a lot of extra resources, eh?

If ICE does not even have the nerve to deport this guy, that means the rule of law in this country is ZIP, ZERO, NADA.

Let’s identify why this is an important arrest for you ICE guys and gals to to make. It’s true that the White House administration has added to our current border crisis by sending mixed messages to those who would enter the country illegally. That goes without saying. But coming in a close second is this guy. He’s out there on an almost daily basis, showing up on a network which is broadcast to every nation in the world. And the message he’s sending is clear. “Look at me! I’m here illegally. I don’t have any documents. And I’m on the TeeVee! I produce films. I get paid to write columns in nationally syndicated sources. And nobody can lay a finger on me!”

Fund raising as an illegal is terrorism and subversion.

His assets should be seized but the IRS cannot take over America without the help of foreign terror nuclear mass destruction powers.

it is amazing that an avowed illegal, who goes on TV and publicly proclaims he is illegal, is not picked up by ICE. Talk about low hanging fruit. They can’t deal with someone who is in public life now, going on TV??? Really???

Why don’t we give reporters badges and guns? They can find top Al Quada operatives. They found the Benghazi perps. They can find this Vargas guy.

Maybe we can arrange a little “accident” for our friend Mr. Vargas...

One that puts him in one of those fine Mexican hospitals.
