Just before election, Obama doubles down on illegal immigrant fly-in program

In an attempt to curb the ongoing surge of Central American illegal aliens crossing over our southern border, the Obama DHS yesterday announced the dramatic expansion of a 2014 program that puts so-called “refugees” from high-crime regions onto commercial airliners and brings them here directly to live and work. The initial surge, first reported on over the summer of 2014 and involving mostly unaccompanied alien minors (UAM) from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador, caused outrage among the American public after apprehended minors began telling border patrol agents they were lured into making the dangerous journey by Obama’s apparent promise of amnesty—Indeed, statistics show the surge starting directly after his 2012 DACA decree which granted self-described “dreamers” deportation deferrals and work permits.

At the time, the embarrassed Obama Administration’s reaction was twofold (although neither involved actual enforcement of our immigration laws): 1) characterize the minors as “refugees” who were escaping a “surge” of drug-related violence back home; and 2) bring down the surge-figures by simply saving the minors the dangerous trip (and smuggler’s fees) and fly them here directly. It’s that strategy which Obama’s implementing again, but this time on a bigger scale.

Talk about human trafficking! He's importing minors to the USA to work? Basically, he's become a coyote, but even worse, he's using my tax dollars to do it!!!

It would be difficult to think of someone actually being brought up on charges of treason, after Obama getting away with what he has done.

Where do we fly refugees from high-crime areas in Detroit and Chicago?

They are too busy running voter surveys and trying to figure out why Donald Trump is so popular.

Now we are bringing criminals from other countries! (see first line of article)

They want the refugee status to give them all the social programs and funding - cloward / Piven strategy.

From article:

the In-Country Refugee/Parole for Central American Minors program (or “CAM” for short), DHS’s new announcement is slathered with mentions of the “vulnerable residents” of Central America whom will be screened and interviewed by agency staff for “refugee status” before being flown in from abroad. But according to internal DHS documents recently obtained by the Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI), denial rates for refugee-status under the 2014 CAM program have been around 90 percent. This only makes sense given the actual definition of “refugee.” Under U.S. immigration law, only those who face persecution on account of “race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion” can be admitted into the country as a refugee. It does not cover those fleeing from “high-crime” regions of the world like Central America. Of the thousands who’ve come here under the old CAM program, almost 9 out of 10 have been ‘paroled’ into the country under a dramatic expansion of DHS’s once dormant “humanitarian parole” authority.

So if Obama’s DHS officials know most UAMs will get rejected from CAM under US refugee law, why are they bothering? Why not just refer to CAM as solely a parole program? It’s likely the political usefulness of the word “refugee” itself. The emotive term fulfils the crucial element of emotional blackmail which the president is always eager to employ when imposing his open-borders experiment on the American people.

Need a new graphic: "bummer for prison 2016".

Thanks, Whenifhow.

This article doesn’t mention numbers, and the earlier one stated the illegals were from South America instead of Central America.

We will know soon enough... One is too many.

Thanks again.
