Immigration Hawks Prepare for Showdown on House Border Bill (McCain Amnesty Aide writes House Bill)

National Review Online ^

[Windy City Conservative]

The latest critique circulating among opponents of the package is that Rebecca Tallent, a former staffer to Senator John McCain (R. Ariz.) who currently works for House Speaker John Boehner (R., Ohio), has played a significant role in drafting the Granger proposal.

“[Tallent] is writing the House plan for Kay Granger,” a well-placed congressional source. “She more than almost anyone has her fingerprints on President Obama’s immigration plans and is very close with the amnesty community, with the White House, with Democratic offices.”

Shady National Review has scrubbed this post from their website. Drudge still has a link to it, but comments are disabled. Rebecca Tallent, big on amnesty has apparently been completely involved in drafting legislation to address the current border situation. Looks like the Boehner fix is in. Shame on NRO for their deceit.

[Gaffer]

If they do this, there is not ONE REPUBLICAN for whom I will vote in November. I’m out and done with it.

[Jane Long]

Who is Rebecca Tallent? Her *talents* have been well documented, on this forum. Here’s a snippet of her *bio*....

Tallent is a veteran of immigration fights and a big believer in reform, including a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants. One of her early endeavors in negotiating legislation was 10 years ago, when she worked as a staffer for former Rep. Jim Kolbe, R-Ariz. Tallent helped draft a major immigration bill sponsored by Kolbe, McCain, and former Rep. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., now a senator and member of the “Gang of Eight” who created the comprehensive immigration bill that passed the Senate.....

If Rebecca Tallent is involved, it's a lock that we're being sold out.

An open letter to the GOP Members of Congress

As a Representative or Senator in Congress, you took this Oath:

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God."

"Support and defend the Constitution" it says. Did you see that? That document, in turn, requires, per Art.4, S.4, that

"The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence."

An invasion is what we are suffering. That invasion has accelerated with each "comprehensive immigration reform" previously enacted. Instead of another disastrous reform that yet again increases the incentives for millions more to try their luck crossing the southern border, a Member of Congress who took his Oath and the Constitution seriously would be pressing for what the American people have repeatedly said they want - not what Senators Schumer and McCain, Mark Zuckerberg, Mexico, some border state farmers and homebuilders or the Chamber of Commerce rent-seekers want. That is:

1. secure the border in a transparently verifiable way;
2. end the anchor-baby interpretation of the 14th Amendment;
3. enforce eVerify without exception and with severe penalties;
4. end chain migration - entry per individual qualifications, not family ties;
5. deportation upon contact with any law enforcement agency - federal, state or local
6. no government benefits beyond critical emergency care (and that ought to be billed back to the home government); and
7. NO "Path to Citizenship" - EVER - for anyone who has entered the US illegally.

Any measure that does not accomplish these things is unacceptable. It is de facto amnesty. And it will inevitably, ineluctably encourage millions and millions more illegal entries.

If the GOP is complicit in granting amnesty - and any action that permits those who entered the US illegally to benefit from that illegal act is amnesty - the GOP will cease to exist. It will not survive through the 2016 elections. The people will shun the over-tanned, glad-handing, backslapping quislings and look elsewhere for leaders who actually have the spine for the fight. Make no mistake - to me and to many, many others, amnesty is the GOP's Rubicon. Cross it at your electoral peril.

[Jane Long]

The fix has been in. This *staffer*/amnesty lover of Bonehead’s is proof.

Kay Granger is in on the fix, too. Shame on her. Her TX constituents are hopefully giving her he## over this.

Jason Chaffetz is speaking LIVE in the House hearing

He said he went to the border and there were illegal aliens from 60 countries there..

[Windy City Conservative]

Why would NRO have this story, post it, and then quickly take it down? Someone in GOP leadership must have raised the issue, and NRO is all too compliant to GOP Leadership, as they are practically the media arm of the GOP. I’m forwarded the link to Breitbart and VDare. I think it is important to get this story out. It was legitimate enough for NRO to post it; there may be something to it.

[MichaelCorleone]

Why is it in vogue to be anti-American? How can it be that the well-off despise the very culture that gave them their wealth and freedom?

Golly---I'm really shocked McCain's "friend "Ana Navaro is not a party to this. Oh well, Ana is prolly busy meeting w/ her La Raza pals thinking up ways to overthrow the US government.

=====================================================

ADVOCATING THE OVERTHROW OF THE US GOVERNMENT FIESTA La Raza President and CEO Janet Murguia, at La Raza's annual hate-America conference in LA, said it sickened her to hear Americans chanting "USA USA." She accused Murietta, Ca protesters of having "cloaked their hatred in patriotism" by shouting "'USA! USA!' again and again." "It made me angry," she said. "In fact, I was outraged."

Murguia demanded amnesty and said the road to the White House for Republicans goes through the Latino community and La Raza. She also said Republicans who want to rescind the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program will not get Hispanic votes.

She repeatedly excoriated protesters. "What we saw in Murrieta is not patriotism. It is ugly, divisive, and yet another low in a debate I thought could not get much lower." Murguia did not say comment on "Viva La Raza!" chants from pro-amnesty advocates.

Murguia told attendees it was "reprehensible" for Republicans to be "concerned" about disease and crime the "little kids" may be bringing across the border.

Cong Gutierrez (Dim-Ill) also spoke at La Raza's "Hate America Fiesta."

==========================================

Mmmmm......the tax-sucking latinos are getting very mouthy...now that they're living in a place w/ running water and flush toilets...and riding the US gravy train 24/7.

One La Razan paid agitator carried a sign proclaiming, "You are on stolen land".....reinforcing that we are being invaded preparatory to the armed takeover of the SW.

==================================================

The stupid La Razans fail to realize---America is not some Third World hellhole where people crap in a hole in the ground.

This is a thriving Republic where people have the right to free speech, freedoms given is b/c we have a two-party system.

La Raza's drumming up hatred for Republicans is tantamount to advocating the overthrow of the US govt.....and she's doing it on the taxpayers' dime.

No question blood-thirsty La Raza is using our tax dollars to aid and abet the criminal contagion-invasion and the SW takeover.

INCONVENIENT FACTOIDS:

<><> La Raza----a violent organization planning to overthrow the US govt----would pocket $100 million tax dollars per year ad infinitum from the Senate amnesty bill.

<><> La Raza also received suck-up Democrat earmarks from US tax coffers.

<><> La Raza received US tax monies to engage in (cough) "mortgage counseling" facilitated by La Raza's comrade in arms---the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.

==============================================

Boobamba sucks up to blood-thirsty La Razans. Americans have the most racist and divisive President in US history. No other president has appointed individuals apparently colluding with foreign countries try to undermine the safety and security of US citizens.

Obummer appointed Celia Munoz to the "Domestic Policy Council".....Munoz was a onetime lobbyist for the blood-thirsty La Raza. "La Raza" proclaims itself a racist and anti-American organization. It's core goal is to overwhelm the American Southwest with illegals ---pressure groups who will vote in their mouthpiece----and cause the region to break away from the US and become Mexican territory.

Speaker “Blank Check” Boehner has convinced most voters in the Public and US House of Representatives that NOTHING CAN BE DONE to punish B. Hussein Obama for violating the US Constitution unless he is removed from Office by the US Senate.

IOW, Speaker Boehner, by doing nothing, Boehner violates his unique Constitutional Duty to “Control the Purse” or Impeach Obama, and passes the buck to a Democrat-controlled US Senate that will never Remove Obama from Office.

Obama knows that as long as Boehner stays in as Speaker, then Obama has permission do whatever he wants to do, with no fear of punishment.

Boehner as Speaker is ESSENTIAL to permitting Obama to violate the US Constitution on a near daily basis.

Boehner is “the best Speaker of the House that the Democrat Party has ever had.”

Removal from Office can only come from the US Senate, and ONLY if the US House Impeaches BEFORE the US Senate even considers whether or not to bring an Impeachment to the Floor of the US Senate.

BTW, “stupid” people are those people who are incapable of learning, and Speaker Boehner and all those who refuse to use the Checks and Balances found in the US Constitution are TRULY STUPID, especially the Republican Member supporters of Boehner as Speaker in the US House of Representatives.

Force Boehner to resign as Speaker, and THEN Impeach Obama with New House Speaker Louis Gomert, Jim Jordan or Trey Gowdy.

Do nothing, and US Voters may find no EFFECTIVE reason to vote for a do nothing Republican slate of Candidates in November, 2014.

BTW, BTW, just what is the difference between a do-nothing Republican Politician who always caves-in to his Democrat betters, and an Obama Democrat Politician?

[cripplecreek]

The game continues unabated.

Every two years they stir the amnesty pot and every two years amnesty is “defeated”. Meanwhile de-facto amnesty is granted by virtue of doing nothing and the border remains wide open.

[Windy City Conservative]

If they screw this up, they will lose the House in 2014, and deservedly so.

From related article

Spends $100,000,000.
2) Asserts acts that are already illegal are now illegal.
3) Makes it a federal crime to tell someone where a DHS, HHS or Border Patrol bus carrying illegal aliens is spotted, coming from or headed.
4) Makes it a federal crime to prohibit a DHS, HHS or Border Patrol bus from moving from point A to point B.
5) Does absolutely nothing to secure the border and stop the invasion in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California. These southern borders will remain wide open and the bill doesn’t address this.
6) Creates a communication channel between HHS and states about newly recommended facilities for housing illegal aliens.
7) Opens up U.S. facilities in Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador for the purpose of processing illegal aliens on foreign soil.
8) Calls for 15,000 “refugees” from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador to be processed on foreign soil and transported into the U.S.

Jason Chaffetz told a Congressional hearing he found illegal aliens from 60 countries at the border.

Mmmmm....that reminds me of the Boston bombers and the tax-sucking Tsarnaev family.

INMMIGRANTS CASH IN---FORCE TAXPAYERS TO FINANCE THEIR DIRTY DEEDS-- Democrat Gov Deval Patrick ordered Massachsetts govt agencies to conceal the welfare info from taxpayers.

But sources who saw 500 pages of welfare documents (requested by a state legislator) told News Center 5 that the entire Tsarnaev family, including (1) the two bombing suspects' parents, (2) the two suspects themselves, (3) their sisters, (4) the widow of the suspect killed, and, (5) their child -- received "every conceivable public benefit available out there." (Excerpt) Read more at wcvb.com ...

This is why they're lining up at the border.

[Tennessee Nana]

Chaffetz said some great stuff about sending the illegal aliens back

I was writing my comment and forgot most of it though

:)

[Tennessee Nana]

this new guy Leon Rodriguez of the USCIS is not pleased with what he is being asked

He is pushing AMNESTY and letting the illegal aliens stay..

Theres been lots of questions on fraudulent documents and what should happen to the illegal aliens caught with them and Chaffetz mentioned it too
