Bernie Sanders Campaign Hires Illegal Immigrant as Deputy Press Secretary
Breitbart ^ | 3/1/19 | Joshua Kaplan

Posted on 03/01/2019 9:22:31 AM PST by DeathBeforeDishonor1

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) has hired a self-declared “undocumented” immigrant to serve as his 2020 presidential campaign’s deputy press secretary. Belén Sisa, who previously worked on the Latino outreach side of Sanders’s 2016 campaign, announced her addition to the Vermont senator’s 2020 team in a Facebook post Wednesday.

“This is really emotional for me. I can’t help but think of 18-year-old Belén, who felt hopeless and powerless to the anti-immigrant attacks and policies that were holding her back from her dreams,” she wrote.

“I can’t help but think of the generations of sacrifice my family has had to do for me to get here. Never in our wildest dreams did we think I’d be making moves like these,” Sisa added in her announcement, which is dated Tuesday.

According to the Arizona-based activist, Sisa’s parents brought her illegally to the U.S. from Argentina at six years old and as a Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipient. Her legal protection from deportation will expire next year.

The hiring was first reported by the Washington Examiner.

In 2017, Sisa garnered national headlines when a photo of her filing taxes in an attempt to shift stereotypes of illegal aliens went viral on social media. “She’s so brave,” said her mother Isabel O’Neal, according to Fox News. “DACA is expiring every day. Hers is going to expire in one year and what are we going to do with all of these youth? Congress has to pass the Dream Act.”

Earlier February, Sanders launched a second run for the White House, pledging to run a campaign focused on “transforming” the U.S. and “creating a government based on the principles of economic, social, racial and environmental justice.”

Oh, I see she has protection from deportation from the illegal DACA caca that The Kenyanesian Usurper started illegally.
We would not have that if the GOP had not refuse to sue to stop it.
The GOP refused to stop it because they wanted any amnesty they could get.

So how do elected officials get to decide which laws to violate and brag about it? This is why we are on the verge of Civil War.

How about 50 million American Tax payers flaunt the Federal laws and decide that we deem Income taxes a waste and do not pay?? Two sets of laws in this Country... One for the rich and powerful and another for the rest of us. Really whizzes me off

“Harboring illegal aliens is a federal offense......Paging ICE..”

Not to worry Bernie is a big time socialist so the rules don’t apply to him. What else is new???? Typical.

What kind of Green Card does Belén Sisa have in order to stay here....as a non-citizen DACA, what are her rights?

Bolshevik Bernie Sanders gives the Republic his middle finger to start his time-and-again run for potus.
