A shocking report from the Senate regarding the fate of hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied minors who entered the US illegally. The government agency responsible for settling the children with sponsors and groups failed to adequately vet them. The result is that an unknown number of illegal alien children were placed with human traffickers. Washington Post: The Obama administration failed to protect thousands of Central American children who have flooded across the U.S. border since 2011, leaving them vulnerable to traffickers and to abuses at the hands of government-approved caretakers, a Senate investigation has found. The Office of Refugee...

Sweden is providing a possible preview of things to come for the U.S. as it struggles with the incredible influx of mostly Muslim refugees into its country. The story is the same throughout other European countries. The migrants bring with them large numbers of people who clearly feel contempt toward Western laws and societal norms. The wave of New Year’s rapes in Germany was perhaps the most stunning and repulsive example of the problems Europe is dealing with, but reports of crimes committed by immigrants are growing day by day. On Monday, Swedish authorities revealed that a squad of 10...

Standing on a street corner in the pitch black night, a youth brandishes a broken walking stick like a weapon. Wrapped up warm in a thick parka coat Mohammed jokes with his friends as passers-by watch the gang of unruly youths hanging around one of the few shops still open with suspicion. As I approach, the 16-year-old drops the baton, his friend kicks it away, trying to hide it.

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Florida) apparently won over a Fox News focus group evaluating the network's Republican presidential debate on Thursday night. Veteran GOP pollster Frank Luntz, who conducted the focus group, told moderator Megyn Kelly that her grilling of Rubio on immigration had truly impressed the voters he was monitoring. "The most important and impactful moment of this debate. It was your challenge of Marco Rubio — and watch how well he did on immigration," Luntz told Kelly on her show after the debate. At the debate, Kelly had pressed Rubio using his past statements on illegal immigration. As his...

Were Russian tank divisions now pouring into Germany, it is safe to say Germany would be fighting back. As it happens, Germany and Europe are now suffering an invasion more dangerous than that would be. Yet all Frau Merkel can do is stand by the side of the road handing posies to the invaders. As I have pointed out for many years, in a world of Fourth Generation war, invasion by immigration is more dangerous-not less dangerous-than invasion by a foreign army. Why? Because unless the invaders are a Roman army, the enemy army usually goes home. He may permanently...

The teacher, Nooshafarin Ravaghi, had traveled the world, spoke three languages and wrote a collection of children's books about a young girl's discovery of her Persian heritage, according to her website. The student, Hossein Nayeri, had fled the United States twice to escape prosecution and was awaiting trial in a brutal torture plot that left a man burned, bleeding and near death in the Mojave Desert. Ravaghi had been teaching in the jails since fall 2014 and passed a Sheriff's Department background check, according to a statement released by the Rancho Santiago Community College District. She had been teaching at...

A 22-year-old San Jose man was arraigned Thursday on charges he raped, beat and suffocated a 2-year-old boy earlier this month as the child's mother slept in another room.

Examine the three ‘children’ in these pictures. One is of Ahmad Farid, who claimed he was 16 but appears at least 18 or more in the snap in which he is laughing as he’s given a fluffy toy polar bear at a refugee reception centre. Ahmad appears to have hair on his chin, and his powerful physique can be seen under his shirt. The second is of Saad Alsaud, reported to have been the fastest 14-year-old in Sweden, dwarfing schoolboys and girls as they join him for a run.

After the Fox News-Google debate Megyn Kelly interviewed Ted Cruz. [7:40 Video begins with a 1:00 clip of the earlier debate] Kelly continued to pursue the "amnesty" angle that she'd begun during the debate [starting at 3:41] - about his history on illegals, immigration and amnesty, but concedes: Kelly: "I look at your record, a lot, to see: Did Ted Cruz really want legalization, or didn't he?" "I think the record supports you - that you did not want it; it does." "It really was a poison pill amendment." Then there is back and forth where Kelly states that Cruz...

Senators Rand Paul and Marco Rubio joined forces Thursday night to accuse their colleague, Ted Cruz, of being willing to "do or say anything" out of political expediency. "This is the lie Ted's campaign is built on, and Rand touched upon it," Rubio said during the debate. "That he is the most conservative guy and everybody else is a RINO. The truth is, Ted, throughout this campaign, you've been willing to do or say anything in order to get votes." Rubio and Paul argued that Cruz has been inconsistent in his approach to immigration reform. Cruz, who put forth an...

I’m not really sure what will happen tonight. I truly hope that Donald Trump will keep his word and follow through on his decision to not attend the debate and hold a separate forum in Des Moines, but who knows. For now, C-Span says they will cover it. Sometimes it’s best to walk away from a bad deal and not look back. It’s another opportunity for Trump to “teach us.” I guess we’ll see. Hopefully we won’t get whipsawed all day long and that the Des Moines rally is on and FR people here will participate. It seems pretty clear...

About 55 per cent of asylum seekers in Sweden are seeing their application approved, while 45 per cent are being rejected at the moment, according to the Swedish newspaper Dagens Industri. The United Nations says more than 46,000 people have arrived in Greece so far this year, with more than 170 people killed making the dangerous crossing.

Corey Lewandowski, the campaign manager for 2016 GOP frontrunner Donald Trump, exposed a blatant conflict of interest on Wednesday that the Fox News Channel has been hiding for months. Lewandowski showed how Fox News has been hiding the fact that Fox News Channel Vice President Bill Sammon has a daughter working for the campaign of the Washington establishment-backed Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL). Sammon's daughter, Brooke Sammon, is Rubio's national press secretary, and obviously both have a vested interest in the success of the Rubio campaign and the demise of the other campaigns. CNN's Erin Burnett asked Lewandowski about Fox News's...

A new NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist poll in Iowa finds Donald Trump has pulled ahead of Ted Cruz with a seven point lead among likely Iowa GOP caucus-goers, 32% to 25%. Key finding: "The poll also shows Trump in a close race with Cruz among likely voters who are white Evangelical Christians, 31% to 28%. The two candidates have been battling over the influential bloc of voters in the state, with each touting endorsements from Evangelical heavyweights in recent days." In the Democratic race, Hillary Clinton remains just three points in front of Bernie Sanders, 48% to 45%.

A new ad that brutally exposes Donald Trump's hypocrisy vis-a-vis illegal immigration did not come from any of his current opponents, but rather Our Principles PAC, an anti-Trump group led by former Mitt Romney aide Katie Packer. The ad opens by asserting that the reason Trump is skipping Thursday"s GOP debate is "Trump can't handle tough questions, like why he'd let millions of illegal immigrants stay in America and even supports a pathway to citizenship." The ad then shows Trump addressing a Chicago audience last June, sounding as if he endorsed giving illegal immigrants a path to citizenship. Trump lectured,...

January 28, 2016, 10:35 am Coulter: Trump boycott isn't about Kelly, it's about Fox being pro-open borders By Ann Coulter Donald Trump is the first alpha male to run for president since L.B.J., but his opponents think it's clever to claim that he's "scared" of Fox News Channel's Megyn Kelly because he's said he's skipping this week's Republican debate. This is like attacking 2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney for being a libertine - or President Bill Clinton for being boring.In addition to being the only candidate who will build a wall and deport illegals, apparently Trump is the only candidate...

"Well, of course immigration means change. Immigrants enrich our culture and add to our economic prosperity"... "We need to give those individuals who are already here - after they have passed checks to ensure they are not dangerous criminals- a path to citizenship so they can pay their full taxes, be counted, and become more productive members of our community,"...

A fifth person from New York was confirmed to have contracted the Zika virus while traveling south of the border — and experts warned Wednesday that the disease could spike here and across the United States as mosquito season arrives this spring. Health officials, citing federal privacy laws, released scant information about the New York cases, which include two from the Big Apple and one each from Nassau, Orange and Monroe counties.

Steve Ronnebeck called into Breitbart News Daily to discuss the death of his 21-year-old son, Grant Ronnebeck, at the hands of an illegal immigrant free on bond. The alien was a self-proclaimed member of the Sinola drug cartel. Accused of a violent home invasion and week-long rape attack, he shot Ronnebeck point-blank over a pack of cigarettes. Mesa held a candlelight vigil for Grant on January 22 to mark the anniversary of the terrible crime. Sheriff Babeu told ABC15 that Grant's death "is a tragedy." Since Ronnebeck's death, his family has been pushing for better immigration laws, especially when it...

Strained to the breaking point by the largest per capita influx of Muslims claiming to be “refugees,” Sweden’s government is finally planning to vet and even expel those invaders who are not legitimately escaping the threat of death.  If, that is, they can find them (which is a big if). The U.K. Guardian reports: Sweden is gearing up to reject up to 80,000 people who applied for asylum in the country last year, as many as half of whom will be forced to leave against their will, according to official estimates. The interior ministry has called on police and...
