    Illegals don't belong in airports, period. But Pete Buttigieg is offering them up for migrant housing anyway. What could go wrong? Is there nothing of greater priority to this Biden administration than the care and feeding of illegally present foreign migrants? It sure seems like it. Witness this latest bat-brained scheme from Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg to house illegal aliens in America's airports. According to Fox News: Dozens of House Republicans, led by the head of the Transportation Committee, are calling on Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg to stop migrants being housed at airports across the country, as the federal government...

    “As a backup measure, I say trained, armed patriots should be prepared also to defend our nation against unlawful invasion…” Finally, a President leads this country who is dedicated to this country. Finally, a man who is not guilt-conflicted and who acts only in the nation’s best interest. Finally, someone with the good sense to say, effectively, “You will not topple this nation from within, using invading hordes from foreign countries.” The sheer madness of the response from the Left to President Trump’s decision to deploy National Guard troops to the southern border, to stop a “caravan” of illegal aliens...

    Well, the wheels have finally started turning on reversing Obama's immigration-related EO. But the deafening screeching from the left is apparently finding some sympathetic ears in GOP quarters. Since the current crop of RINO's doesn't have the courage of their "convictions" or the intestinal fortitude to stand by their campaign promises, and since Trump is giving them an out to placate the screeching of the anarchist left, here is my compromise proposal for allowing some aspects of DACA to be properly passed through Congress. - A definitive window of "immigration" must be established by which children illegally brought to this...

But one strong ally who knows exactly how powerful a wall can be to keep out one's enemy just sent Trump a congratulatory tweet that is sure to  make the left go nuts all over again. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu just sent this to support Trump and the American people... President Trump is right. I built a wall along Israel's southern border....

    Back in 2013, Immigration and Customs Enforcement got ripped by Congress for releasing 36,000 violent criminal illegal aliens onto American streets. Those criminals had convictions of homicide, rape, child molestation drunk driving and more. In 2013, ICE freed 36,007 convicted criminal aliens from detention who were awaiting the outcome of deportation proceedings, according to a document obtained by the Center for Immigration Studies. This group included aliens convicted of hundreds of violent and serious crimes, including homicide, sexual assault, kidnapping, and aggravated assault. The list of crimes also includes more than 16,000 drunk or drugged driving convictions. The vast majority of...

    Over the past several weeks we have seen a significant increase in illegal immigration, as thousands of unaccompanied minors pour across what seems an invisible southern border into the United States. The mass immigration has, as to be expected, put an enormous strain on local resources, and it has heated up the immigration debate in the US. Most liberals and conservatives miss the point, however, making the same old arguments we have all heard before. Liberals argue that we need to provide more welfare and assistance to these young immigrants, while conservatives would bus them to the other side of...

    The U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency (CBP) is reporting that one sector of the U.S./Mexico border has seen a 100% increase in the number of illegal aliens, previously deported for criminal sexual offenses, apprehended while attempting to illegally re-enter the United States. The comparison is between Fiscal Year 2013 and Fiscal Year 2014.The Del Rio Border Patrol sector, one of nine in total that exist along the U.S./Mexico border, is one of the less active sectors, and the CBP did not release information from the more active sectors. The sector, however, has seen eight previously-deported sex offenders in Fiscal Year 2014...

    Red State ^ | 1/28/2013 | Daniel Horowitz
    The subject of immigration (and evidently, illegal immigration) has proven to be a divisive issue for conservatives. There are divergent opinions as to which policies should be pursued vis-à-vis the 12 million illegal immigrants who reside in the country. However, as conservatives, there are certain fundamental goals and red lines that we should all unite behind as we commence debate on this issue. Any so-called comprehensive immigration reform proposal that is worth more than a bucket of spit must ensure the following: ■we are not saddled with 12 million new consumers of the welfare state; ■we don’t have 12 million...

    Check out this video about a foot bridge from Mexico to America that is NOT GUARDED. When aske about it a government official say, "It is not a foot bridge, it is a grade control structure". Just before that they show you the a part of the pathetic $2.4 billion Fence they built that anyone can drive around. It's just my opinion, but we need every Republican to run a portion of this report in their campaign commercials to show the incompetence of a centralized government. Link to video of what a Government official claims is not a foot bridge...
  • Al Sharpton pledge to fight Arizona immigration bill

    The Rev. Al Sharpton says he will challenge Arizona's new immigration bill in court and on the streets. Sharpton is joining Lillian Rodriguez Lopez from the Hispanic Federation to announce a legal challenge to the bill. They say activists are also prepared to commit civil disobedience to fight the Arizona immigration bill. Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer signed the bill Friday. It requires police to question people about their immigration status — including asking for identification — if they suspect someone is in the country illegally. The law will take effect in late July or early August. President Barack Obama has...

    In GOP base, a 'rebellion brewing' By: Ben Smith and Jonathan Martin April 26, 2009 07:03 AM EST A quick tour through the week’s headlines suggests the Republican Party is beginning to come to terms with the last election and that consensus is emerging among GOP elites that the party needs to move away from discordant social issues. There was Sen. John McCain's daughter and his campaign manager who last week demanded that their fellow Republicans embrace same-sex marriage. Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman – the most devoted modernizer among the party's 2012 hopefuls – won approving words from New York...

    Lynn Schott of Irvine walked into a Laguna Woods clubhouse Saturday morning not really sure who she'd vote for in the February presidential primary. She walked out confident about her pick: Fred Thompson. "I was really on the fence before," said the 45-year-old home school educator. "I came here to get more information. The combination of listening to the debate the other night and coming here to the rally and seeing him up close… really put me over into his camp."

    Christian Science Monitor ^ | 07 June 2007 | Becky Akers and Donald J. Boudreaux
    Just in time for summer, the Senate is heating things up with immigration reform. The bill it's debating aims to shore up border security and start some 12 million illegal aliens on the path to citizenship. Despite passionate disagreement, voices across the political spectrum concur on two points: They insist the federal government should do something about immigration, and they're sure immigrants threaten American jobs. People assert these claims as though they're self-evident. But they aren't, as even a basic understanding of the US Constitution and the principles of economics shows. And that means most of the premises about immigration...

    ...the explosive growth of the U.S. Hispanic population over the next couple of decades does not bode well for American social stability. The dimensions of the Hispanic baby boom are startling. By 2050 the Latin population will have tripled, the Census Bureau projects. It's the fertility surge among unwed Hispanics that should worry policymakers. Hispanic women have the highest unmarried birthrate in the country - over three times that of whites and Asians, and nearly one and a half times that of black women, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Social workers in Southern California... are in...

    At every step along the way – from the initial charges to the trial to the sentencing – Claudia Martinez of Huntington Beach thought that the nightmare would soon be over, that the justice system would finally see the light. She just couldn't believe that her brother, a U.S. Border Patrol agent, would actually be sent to prison for the shooting of a drug smuggler. "He didn't do anything wrong," says Martinez, 29, a 10-year Orange County resident who with her brother, Jose Compean, was born and raised in El Paso, Texas. "He loved his country, he served his country...

Shortly after Edd Hendee presented the Maul MXT-7-180 to Culberson County Sheriff Oscar Carrillo and Hudspeth County Sheriff Arvin West, the small plane took off for a three-hour flight from West Houston Airport to Van Horn, about 120 miles east of El Paso.
