New York Wants Illegal-Immigrant Teachers
Defying federal law, the state of New York is preparing to allow illegal immigrants to become licensed schoolteachers in 700 districts. According to Education Commissioner MaryEllen Elia, the state does not want to “close the door on their dreams,” which has to rank as one of the most absurd justifications for bad policy in recent memory.
“They are American in every way but immigration status,” said Elia.
That’s cute, but that’s like saying they’re doctors in every way but educational status. Being “American” isn’t some nebulous term used to describe someone’s experiences and beliefs; it means you’re a U.S. citizen. Of course, when you buy into the idea that you can define your own gender, every other term is up for grabs. Who needs laws? We can just let bleeding-heart liberals determine what’s right and wrong according to the whims of their emotions.
“They’ve done everything right,” said Elia. “They’ve worked hard in school, some have even served in the military, but when it’s time to apply for a license, they’re told, ‘Stop. That’s far enough.'”
Liberal logic at its best right here. We didn’t bother enforcing the law at any of these other junctures, so why start now? These people are so radical on this issue that you can’t even sarcastically suggest letting illegal immigrants vote in U.S. elections; that’s exactly what they want!
New York officials are free to ignore federal immigration law due to President Obama’s 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals order which protects illegal immigrants who meet a certain set of criteria. But in Obama’s own words, DACA amounts to nothing more than “prosecutorial discretion.” It only overrides the law to the extent the Justice Department is willing to ignore it. The next president can rip it to shreds on his first day.
That’s tougher to do, though, once these immigrants become entrenched in the system. Democrats want to create a system where anything less than blanket amnesty would cause utter chaos. Not that all the blame goes to them – Republicans have wavered between being political doormats and active accomplices. When one of their own presidential candidates suggested actually enforcing the law, they wrote him off as a racist kook. And then they have the gall to tell people he’s not a conservative. If “conservative” is defined as “embracing liberal policies ten years after the Democrats,” then what is the point?
The New York Board of Regents, which also wants to put illegals to work in pharmacy, dentistry, and 52 other licensed professions, played a sad violin for these foreigners. “Most of these individuals have no current mechanism to obtain legal residency, even if they have lived most of their lives in the U.S.”
Cool. Most Americans have no current mechanism to legally kill their neighbors, even if they really, really want to. The law doesn’t magically disappear just because you perceive it as unfair.
Well, it shouldn’t, anyway.
This is sick.
Obama’s treasonous illegal alien and muslim resettlement policies along with race baiting have created an ongoing SECOND 9/11 terrorist attack against America!!
I will even call it a “Manufactured, False Flag” US Government sanctioned “PURGE” against its own citizens and the police!
Obama is a Liar and Traitor. Impeach him now you skulking cowards!
One small problem. …..There are more traitors in Congress than patriots!
Trump, Not Rubio ………in 2016
Oh hush… we’ve heard your whimpers before!
Another sycophant apologist for treason.
Nope, no sycophant or traitor here! Just common sense and a LOT of patince!
Common sense???? Patience????? it is being a FOOL. You want all of the countries south of our border to rush to our country??? Then you should support all of them. I am sick and tired of supporting them on my back and putting up with the criminality they commit. Who shoot dead that lady walking in a pier in SF with her father? An ILLEGAL. Maybe later on it will come to your family to roost.
Aren’t they already dumb enough now?
This is the very definition of “Insanity”!
And being fools.
To a Progressive “American” includes All North,Central,and South Americans. Regardless of where they may have been born. It is one of those word tricks that they love to play.
AMERICAN TO A DEMOCRAT IS HOW THE PERSON “VOTES”
They may as well do this. That’s all that is in the city now. The affluent kids go to private schools.
they’re as freaking insane as trump & bernie supporters!!!
WAKE UP AMERICA! THIS IS BULLSHIT! IF WE CONTINUE WITH THIS PROGRESSIVE LIBERAL BULLSHIT, AMERICA, THE CONSTITUTION AND, DEMOCRACY, AS WE KNOW IT WILL SOON, NO LONGER EXIST! OUR COUNTRY IS BEING DESTROYED FROM WITHIN!!!!!
I believe that was prophesied about 55 years ago… if it hasn’t happened by now, it isn’t going to happen. We’re just progressing…!
Progressing??? By supporting all the poor and impoverished of the world who wants an easy life from the sweat of our brow? When you hire ILLEGALS, how many legal Americans are you cutting off from the job??????
The mental disease of liberalism is strong with this asshole puke of a “person”. When can we start eliminating our American trash like Georgie boy?
Maybe we should email this Ms Elia. I will try and get an email for her.
Haven’t you heard? O told Putin we don’t have a constitution. Then one of the dems in I’d first year even said, you all better stop us before the constitution is gone.
The reps did nothing.
As far as I’m concerned, the gop ceased to exist about eight years ago! The only reason this POS in the W.H. is breathing is because, people are afraid of a racial civil war! Which maybe inevitable anyway!
Fire that moron and obummo
Riiiiiiight! Are you REALLY that dense???
So, I think that we may need to re-think the Don’s border fence! It’s looking that we need it at the NY/northeastern section of US, along with sectioning off CA, OR & WA! They want these illegals & possibly terrorists, then let them! Oh yeah, I also forgot MI?!?
NY is leading in taxation, gov’t regulations, and lousy Democrat leadership. Why not lead in ignoring immigration laws and put anybody in front of our classrooms! This sends the wrong message to our kids and the world that NYS and the USA pays no attention to the Constitution or our system of lawsk!
any place there is a Dem in charge the cities, states are falling apart, the “TRICKLE DOWN” doesnt work there because Dems steal the money b4 getting it where it is supposed to go. DEMS R LIARS,THIEVES & COMMUNIST.HOW ABOUT THE DREAMS OF OUR CHILDREN “LEGAL BLACK, HISPANIC, ASIAN, INDIAN”
every place there is a Dem Socialist in charge the nation is falling apart
Then they all drift toward Rep Capitalism.
‘lawsk?’ Oooookay! Proofread. proofread, PROOFREAD!
New York has become a true joke. The city has a communist mayor, wants to give voting rights to illegals and now have illegals teach. When the next big attack comes, and it will, maybe New York, NYC will finally get what it deserves and “Wake Up”!!!!
What stinking morons! Aren’t some states letting illegals practice law? Does being illegal not mean a dam thing?
Hell, Obama just sent them all letters saying their now citizens along with ebt cards, medical cards, some govt grants, education vouchers, guaranteed job, etc.
Sick of illegals, refugees, h1b workers, etc.
Being a citizen doesnt mean much, at least to libtards and obummer.
Push for drastic cuts to immigration, refugees, work visas, foreign aid, UN aid.
Riiiiiiight!
Ya said that before! You are clearly Leeeeeeeeeeeeft! Can’t you think of some new nonsense?
Trump is our next president, he alone can knock out the witch Hillary Clinton, forget about Bernie sanders he won’t even be there. I predict trump will win the nomination by a land slide. I have never been wrong but once when I admitted it but then found I was right. Ha ha ha yaba daba do. As ol Fred would say.
Mr. Trump is not a conservative… He blows like the wind…. First he was firmly pro-choice on abortion and now with the weakest testimony ever as an excuse he says he is pro-life… He will be what you want him to be to get your vote…
Mr. Trump is so prideful he claimed he was a great Christian and didn’t need to ask for forgiveness for anything… No true Christian would have ever said such a thing about himself… True Christians know that there is nothing good in us that we would be worthy of God’s forgiveness… We are sinners and needing to continually come humbly before God asking for forgiveness… Sadly, Mr. Trump is extremely obnoxious, arrogant, self-centered and worse than all of that extremely self-righteous, definitely a combination that we do not need in a man who converses with other world leaders…. We have all these attributes in the current president now and look what has happened to us in the last 7 years…. United States has never been hated more than we are today.
Mr. Trump has even bragged how he has contributed to both party and their politicians in hope to gain favor to get what he wanted from them…
It is easy for me to see that Mr. Trump is no born again Christian, therefore although Trump would make a much better president than Hillary I could never vote for him as president. I will not vote for the lesser of two evils.
With the corruption that we have now throughout all of USA… I expect to see killary, I mean Hillary in the White House next year…
What makes Trump more electable is the fact that while conservative he is not a crazy fundamentalist. You will probably get to sit on your as!! Since Trump will be the nominee and I guarantee , he will beat Hell ary!
Trump calling himself a conservative doesn’t in no way make him conservative.. A man is known by his actions more so than by what he says… Case in point, Obama says he is the most transparent president in history and he also said he is a Christian; are you so foolish to believe what Obama says or do you look at his actions to determine the truth of the man?
Thank you! You just ‘outed’ yourself as a fundamentalist christian extremist! No more attention for your comments!
Yes, I am a racial believing in the absolute truth of God’s WORD… For it was by His WORD that He spoke the very existence of this world into being… scientist now claim that the universe had a begin and it does have a ending and that beginning started like this:
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. Genesis 1:1-2
The Bible also tells how the fool says there is no God… They have allowed the prince of this world to keep them blinded from seeing the truth, less they cry out to God and He would save them from their sin.
Buy one of these books, “The Case for Christ” or “The Case for Faith” but if you can’t afford the $10 then Google: “watchman48 The Great Message” and after reading this message ask yourself how could this have happen if there is no God, but please don’t read this if you don’t want to hear the truth….
The claim, “I didn’t know” or “Ignorance” will not be an excuse for anyone on Judgment Day.
God gives man freewill to either choose to believe or to deny His existence… But He is a lot more involved with man’s presence in this world then you can ever imagine.
And He changeth the times and the seasons: He removeth kings, and setteth up kings: He giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding: Daniel 2:21(KJV)

to Watchman48 – You know, I think it is a true blessing to be a faithful believer in God, Jesus and the word of God. The point is, not being negative but, if everyone that felt the same as you said, “Well, he is not a true Christian so I will NOT vote for him/her”. Ok, so you do NOT vote at all. The process is very simple, we know that NONE of them are truthful in everything that they say and do, so what do you do? Quit listening to the MSM, they are as full of falsehoods as the ones that they report on and about. The MSM are supposed to report on facts but, they don’t. They do as their paychecks dictate which the CEOs/Investors/Owners dictate – get the picture. They twist the truth and will do anything that a politician will do to win the election for their best interests. They do not have the best interest of this Nation, their agenda is greed and position which gives them more access to money and more power, something that just has to be accepted. Do the research as best you can, follow the news as it happens and use discernment and not judgement. After you have done the best you can, your job is to VOTE for the candidate that you think has the best platform AND most important, one that you THINK will have the best chance of winning and do the greatest amount of good for this Nation. Sure, that person will fail time and time again. It is a known, no one can please all the people all the time, hopefully your candidate will win and do less damage than any other candidate. You don’t have to personally like that person, your vote is to vote for the best of the best or maybe in this case, the lessor worst of all the worse worst. Gets kinda confusing. Don’t listen to all your friends who will probably repeat the twisted news and never ever bother to research of the truth. As it says in the Bible (I’m not going to research the verse) but, Christians must be alert to not let evil creep into our church in disguise of goodness. Not an exact quote but if you have read it before, I’m sure you get the point. So, my simple advise, vote for the person who best represents your beliefs, I guarantee he will not be perfect, only Jesus was perfect, don’t expect that in mankind, just watch, learn and do the best you can and vote.
Abortion is nothing less than the shedding of innocent blood…. So I try to look at this as I believe Jesus would look at it… And to think that Jesus would support any one that supported abortion in any form, be it with their encouragement, their money, their speech or even with their vote is atrocious, truly an abomination against God’s Holy WORD and I can’t understand how anyone who calls themselves a Christian can look at this in any other way…
You will not get an argument from me about abortion, unfortunately there are more issues than abortion. The survival of America is at stake. Abortion is just another nail in our coffin and from where I stand, IF you don’t vote, even if it is someone that believes in no abortion or some form of limited abortion, seems like they are all for abortion, especially the Democrats. Just because of the one issue, you can not deny and just quit. I promise you that a non vote is a vote for Hillary or Bernie and that is a vote for pure abortion in all forms. Personally I don’t give up that easily, with a Republican in office, we still stand a chance to finally get it passed that abortion IS murder. Other issues, we must build a strong military, we must maintain our border, those that enter the U.S. must be vetted and not have an open gangway, we must bring industry back to the U.S. for jobs to build up our nation. Because of one issue or two or three, we must go forward. Irregardless of who wins, I promise you, we will not agree on everything, their will be failures but, at least we will have a recourse to continue to try, correct/fix those failures. You do not win if you quit, and on the issue of abortion, by saying I will not vote because he has stated he was pro choice….. in my book…. is letting evil win. Remember, politicians will say what they think the public wants to hear to garner their votes, vote for the least evil, someone has to win – someone has to lose – don’t be a loser.
I have had numerous spiritual events in my life in the Holy Spirit speaking through my lips, dreams and visions.. Even most Christians have a hard time believing that God is as active and real as He is… I write about just a few of these events here, I even have several witnesses to half of these events that I have experienced..
In Nov. ’69 seated in the In-Laws kitchen play cards my wife tells them that there first grandchild in on the way.. After having done a dance her Mother shakes her finger at the wife and says, I think this will be a little girl… I said, “No, it will be a boy 21″ long and weighing 7 lb. 8oz. I had just turned 21 and didn’t know nothing about this stuff… Seven and half months later Brian was born 21” long and 7 lb. 8oz. Four year later nearly the same thing happen and my Mother-In-Law says, I think this will be a little brother for Brian.. I said, “No, it will be a little sister weighing less than 6 lb.” Seven months later Michelle is born weighing 5 lb., 9oz. Each time this happened I was just as much in shock as everyone else. This was the fourth time this had happen and each time it was just as the Holy Spirit spoke through my lips…
I nearly murdered Dan, a co-worker in June ’78, my hands were less than an inch away from murdering Dan when all of a sudden the lights went out, not in the building we were working in but in me… I closed my eyes and shook my head, opening my eyes I saw my 4yr. old daughter and son who would turn 8 the next week, both standing many 10-12′ in front of me in a garden setting. They both reach out to me and said, :”No Daddy, don’t! No Daddy, don’t!” I closed my eyes and shook my head and opened to see Dan. God knew exactly what to show me that I would choose to stop from killing Dan..
Jan. 1991 God showed me the same vision in three nightmares each night for three nights in a row, visions of the entrances to Hell… After the third vision on the third night I fell to my knees in prayer accepting all the blame for my divorce… After a good while on my knees I crawled back into bed and immediately where the nightmare ended before this time it began…. There before me appeared a pair of clasp hands, I climbed into the hands and laid back and the hands lifted me back to the surface of the earth into the light… God was showing me that as a lukewarm Christian I was bound for Hell.
On Apr. 1994 after the Holy Spirit had spoken to me for three days in a row I was led to the prophecies God revealed to Pastor Dumitru Duduman.. These prophecies reveal the destruction of USA and since then He has lead me to two other pastors, plus He has given me two confirmation for each one..
Aug.’94 I begin speaking the warning of another attack on WTC #2 Tower for seven years after reading the Engineer’s Report of the ’93 WTC Bombing. God has never allowed the destruction of a nation nor of its people before first sending His warnings hoping that the hearts of the people might turn to Him..
With what God has shown me I can assure you USA will not regain her glory… We never rise again to what we were… On Jan 22, 1997 during my prayers that night the Holy Spirit said, “I will repay United States double for her iniquities.” God does not take His warnings lightly…. I tell how the 9/11 attack was the first of 3 major attacks. The 2nd will be approx. 1000x times greater and the final attack will be no USA to rebuild… For more details, Google: “watchman48 RFC Newsletter #101” and for poof of God’s existence, Google: “watchman48 The Greater Message.”
So, now maybe you can understand why I must say, I will obey God’s leading, which is not voting for Trump… I still rely on God’s Holy Word as in Dan. 2:21.
OK, so you are not voting for Trump, pray tell me who is the Godless one that you will vote for?
1 Corinthians 13:6 – 11 & (14:3) “6. Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; 7. Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. 8. Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. 9. For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. 10. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be undone away. 11. When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 14: 3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation , and comfort.” I am sure that you have completely researched Mr. Trump’s life, I am sure that you have researched all the negative things that ALL the politicians have said, I am sure that you have researched all that the reporters have said, I am sure that God has spoken to you in a vision and said that Mr. Trump is totally evil. What your relation is with God only you and God would know, what your relationship is with Satin, have you ever thought about that. Have you the divine power to KNOW which it was that sent you your visions, God or satin, being careful that you do not entertain satin in the clothing of a sheep, to deceive and destroy. Satin has been doing a wonderful job of destroying a Christian Nation and will use whatever methods that work for him. Jesus did not condemn the whore but told her to go and sin no more. You decide that by your not voting for a lessor evil, by which you condomn a greater evil.
When or where did I say that God has spoken to me in a vision and said that Mr. Trump is totally evil?
SATAN, has no hold on me like he does with many who claim to be Christian yet they support the agendas of homosexuality, abortion and the rejection of God’s WORD through their support of the politicians do support these abominations…
[Satin has been doing a wonderful job of destroying a Christian Nation] SATAN has certainly gotten a lot of help in destroying USA from uninformed, lukewarm Christians and the liberals who know nothing of the meaning or understanding of the words, righteousness or holiness!
You couldn’t possibly be more confused… To vote for a lessor evil is still condoning evil, which is still sinning… A Christian should know and understand that.
I only have one last comment and I wasn’t even going to do that but……. By not voting, ask yourself, “Why have I given up?” I said it before and I will say it one last time, so don’t even bother to reply to this post. By doing “nothing”, which means that if the Democrats win the Presidential election, IF you have been following their platform, you will have noticed that they are for, 100% pro-choice with the tax payers paying for that, so the tax payer part is not an issue for you, no problem that is only half (or whatever part) of the issue. There will be no stopping abortions, it will be full speed ahead for the Planned Parenthood and any other organization that is pro abortion. I don’t like those odds, never have never will but, if we can get a Republican into office, POTUS, then we still have a fighting chance of making abortion illegal or at least with very few exceptions. We need every vote that we can get. I am not in love or even like some or all of them but make no mistake, which ever Republican is elected, God’s people still have a chance to continue their fight against abortion. Maybe you don’t understand and want to believe that if you do nothing, it is acceptable. I am reminded of the three that were given the money, one invested it and gained considerable, the second gained some, the third knew that if he invested it, that he might lose some or all of it – so did nothing, God did not like that. I can’t remember Book, chapter or verse but, if you like I will find it. My last comment (again) please see: 1 Corinthians 10:33 “Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.” I would vote for the lessor of two evils at my own peril, “…but the profit of many, that they may be saved.” I believe that would include the lives of unborn babies. Amen
Well we know that Rubio is Not is not a conservative for dam.. Sure! He sold the American people by being the front man for the most traitorous bill in the history of any country in the world. That bill would have added, with amnesty almost 77 million “new Americans” to this country. It would have fundamentally changed our culture and religious demographic. I am not exaggerating, read the bill on Politico’s or Numbers USA. So amnesty is certain with everyone running on both sides including Cruz except with Trump. Even if he gets one tenth of what he is saying, securing the border, pausing on refugees from war torn regions, dismantling TPA, NAFTA and being tough with Isis, he will be better than the rest of the bums!
I have trusted liars before and been deeply disappointed so I am not going to trust another liar who calls himself a great Christian… There are no great Christian, never has been and never will be.. The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? Jeremiah 17:9
Well, I hate to break it to you but if are looking for a saint in politics you will go through in utter disappointment! Pat Tobertson didn’t make it!
Well, that I agree with, but to accept a man that claimed to be firmly pro-choice just a few months ago and who says he doesn’t need forgiveness is totally out of the running on my list…
You are a prime example of why Hillary will win! Wait until she asks Bernie to be her VP running mate! That will be landslide victory for the Democrats and the country!
It’s going to be pretty tough to “win” when she is charged you worthless scumbag.
You mean her (who?) batteries are dead? Ohhhh my….. Listen spineless hedgehog, Hillary will not be charged OR indicted on anything! A lifetime in politics, many scandals, and not a second in prison or jail. Quite impressive. Now stop… you’re making a complete fool of yourself!
Listen up you worthless pile of shit. Just because your ignorant self doesn’t care if the cunt HC broke the law and cost lives……REAL people do. Those not afflicted with the mental disease of liberalism DO care you scumbag. The ONLY fool posting on this thread is YOUR worthless self. Just die you worthless scumbag!
There truly are no more victories for this country…. Some may think that a democrat win might be a victory but to slide farther and farther into the depths of depravity is not a victory for anyone…
Why is it so hard for people to understand… I am not stopping anyone from voting how they wish to vote… I am trying to educate those that would seek to do what is right for their own peace of mind and their relationship with Christ… To vote for a lessor evil is still condoning evil, which is still sinning… Every Christian should know and understand that.
You had best leave the teaching and preaching to qualified persons with a higher education. You fail at all levels!
Well, I am not even sure if you are a Christian, maybe a lukewarm Christian or not even a believer at all… But if you had read the Bible you would have known that all Christians are called to share the love of Christ and the knowledge which God has given him to those who might be lost in their sins…
God has always had His prophets and watchmen throughout all of man’s history…. In April 1994 the Holy Spirit whispered in my left ear three days in a row to led me the prophecies that He gave Pastor Dumitru Duduman and I had five witnesses to this event.. Since that time I have shared his warnings to thousands throughout USA as I travel back and forth from the East Coast to the West Coast each week…. God takes His warnings very seriously, He has never allowed the destruction of a nation nor of it’s people before first sending His warnings hoping that the hearts of the people might turn to Him…
After reading the Engineer Report on the WTC #2 Tower Bombing in Aug. ’94 I began warning those that would listen that the terrorist were coming back to “HIT” this #2 Tower again and when they do they will “TAKE” it to the ground.. And that just how they did it..
I now tell how the 9/11/01 was the first of three major attacks. The 2nd will be 1000x greater and then the final.. and this is why I don’t worry about who the next president will be… For more details on the next two attacks Google: “watchman48 RFC #101.
God is real and just as active today as He has ever been… The problem is there are very few seeking Him with all of their hearts…
Ezekiel 33: 1-9 The word of the Lord came to me: “Son of man, speak to your people and say to them: ‘When I bring the sword against a land, and the people of the land choose one of their men and make him their watchman, and he sees the sword coming against the land and blows the trumpet to warn the people, then if anyone hears the trumpet but does not heed the warning and the sword comes and takes their life, their blood will be on their own head. Since they heard the sound of the trumpet but did not heed the warning, their blood will be on their own head. If they had heeded the warning, they would have saved themselves. But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet to warn the people and the sword comes and takes someone’s life, that person’s life will be taken because of their sin, but I will hold the watchman accountable for their blood.’
“Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the people of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me. When I say to the wicked, ‘You wicked person, you will surely die,’ and you do not speak out to dissuade them from their ways, that wicked person will die for[a] their sin, and I will hold you accountable for their blood. But if you do warn the wicked person to turn from their ways and they do not do so, they will die for their sin, though you yourself will be saved.
Now maybe you can understand why I will listen to God rather than man..
Quoting a stone age cartoon… thank you for proving your age bracket!
What, they couldn’t find any more out of work legal American citizens (who would vote Democrat) to do the job?
That ‘X’ reminds me of the millions of people who need two people to witness their signatures because they can’t write their names. Thank you!
You remind me of the millions of people who need to be driven to the polls and told who to vote for. Hint, it’s the one’s with the “”D” after their name.
Gee! And then these politicians wonder why so many people are flocking to Donald Trump’s rallies and pledging to vote for him. When are these fools going to wake up and stop giving America away?
Wait until the Republican Party splits in the coming weeks… then talk to us again! A split caucus will destroy your little Tea/republican party.
Take note, I do not, repeat NOT belong to any “little Tea/Republican party”! If it is of any interest to you, I am an independent voter who does not believe any single one of those attempting to become the next occupant of the White House is worthy of the privilege of my vote. However, I also realize if I do not vote I would have no right to complain about whoever is selected.
i AGREE, AND, I’M NOT A FAN OF trump! HOWEVER, A NON VOTE WOULD BE A VOTE FOR WHO EVER IS THE NOMINEE ON THE LEFT!
Exactly. Now if only we can get the four million registered republican voters who sat at home and didn’t vote the last to show up and vote. We might have a chance this time. Especially if the democrats that have seceded from the left party to the party of truth, justice, and the American way stay committed to voting republican.
Vote for him anyway. Trump is the only one that seems to talk straight and sensible. I am voting for him and telling my friends to vote for him too.
Typical of Obama and his liberals, if the law is inconvenient – just do it anyway. How can they use Illegal aliens to teach? Most of them won’t even learn Engilsh. Why bother? They can get everything they want by using OUR Social Security. I didn’t like Trump at first but this s**t is making me a supporter.
Stupid , Illegal , WAKE UP !
sure glad i moved out of New York. i left Brooklyn , where i was born and grew up, when i joined the military at 17 back in 1960. haven’t been back except for brief visit’s since.
Thank you for your service.
[“They’ve done everything right,” said Elia] Oh, really? They committed a felony when they crossed our borders illegally! The stupidity of the liberals thinking is truly mind blowing…. It is this kind of thinking that gave us the most godless unrighteous president in United States’ history…
So, what reward is it to go to college, get your degree to become a teacher to find out, “Hey, the positions were filled by illegals, we felt sorry for them so they were hired.” I’m sure there is more to the story than has been told but, it boils down to this, the door has been opened, the illegals (maybe they were kids that their parents brought them in and they had no choice – so – why didn’t they take steps to become legal as they grew older) are sticking their foot in that open door. Where will it go from the foot in the door. If you do NOT have the degree and New York says that is OK, BS! They get the job will spread to anyone that has a pitty party regardless of their legal status as a citizen, regardless if they are certified with a degree, regardless of their loyalties (to the U.S.A.). Once someone is hired, they will move up in rank until they become the authority, and then they will continue in the system that was opened to them and open the door wider. “Hey Brother, you need a job, no problem, no certified degree, you my friend for a few dollars, you got the job, we scratch each other backs”. Who loses, the American citizen that works for their degree to full fill THEIR dream by working for it and have earned it, by a Liberal that “feels” sorry for someone with their hand out. It becomes their right to receive, like welfare. Those persons who opt for this should all be fired, they are as worthless as the illegal who fills the teacher position.
This is exactly what happened to me. I graduated with teaching degree in social studies in 1993 in Ga. At that time Ga was at peak of the latino invasion after NAFTA. Millions of them poured into Atlanta suburbs and schools were overwhelmed by millions of non English speaking Latino children. All non Spanish speaking hires were put on hold and thousands of unqualified “teachers” whose only qualification was they could speak Spanish were hired instead. This atrocity has been going on for a since NFTA was put in place. Americans are finally waking up from their slumber put I am affraid it may just be too late to save this country.
NY dept of Ed should be sued by American citizen college grads who want to be teachers.
There is nothing left worth while in being an American citizen anymore. All we do is pay high taxes to take care of citizens of El Salvador, Gautemalla and other Central American hell holes. They come here, drop babies and collect as many social welfare benefits they can lay their hands on. I hope Trump doesn’t turn out to be a phony. He is the only hope we have, with all others amnesty is a certainty and with it the Latinization of this country into a third world hell hole.
I don’t pay government taxes anymore I refuse to I will not pay those lying thieving murder liberals comes another penny I will pay my state taxes as long as the states behave but when the states misbehave I’m leaving
Unfortunately neither of those is viable option!
LOLOL… and just WHERE do you think you’ll move to? Canada is even more liberal than the USA, and Mexico… well, you go ahead, trek to Mexico and we’ll visit your grave on our next jaunt through for souvenirs!
Soon it will be open season on the worthless liberal pukes like Georgie boy who have brought our once great nation to its knees. Being a worthless scumbag liberal asshole is no way to go through life.
If New York don’t want to follow the laws of the Constitution and of American patriots then they are not American. Put them out of the union. They are traitors to our constitution. You suck N.Y. scum!
What’s sick is, that there’s currently no practical way for undocumented people to obtain legal status. Residents
in a given area obviously have an interest in its governance. Perhaps they should also have the microscopic amount of political power that inheres in a franchise.
UNDOCUMENTED MEANS “ILLEGAL” NOT UNDOCUMENTED “ILLEGAL”=GOT IT FOOL, ILLEGALS IN THE COUNTRY RECEIVE ALL THE BENEFITS OF CITIZENS, 51%OF PPL IN COUNTRY DONT PAY TAXES, ILLEGALS RECEIVE INCOME CREDITS, WELFARE, HEALTHCARE, ETC
Everybody pays sales and, though sometimes indirectly in the form of rent, real estate taxes. Everyone who works pays SS and Medicare, unless they’re working “under the table,” something that would be significantly alleviated by some type of legalization. The 51% trope arises because, luckily, poor people aren’t forced to pay INCOME tax.
The healthcare and welfare stuff varies widely, and wildly, from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Undocumented is the correct term, because it’s really not like people commit aggravated assaults, or armed robberies, to get across the border. Me Again, you could benefit from a little political correction.
“ILLEGAL” IS THE CORRECT TERM, I DONT NEED POLITICAL CORRECTNESS I AM NOT A LIBERAL & NOT STUPID ENOUGH TO CONVERT TO MARXIST-COMMUNIST-FASCIST TACTICS TO JUSTIFY “ILLEGAL”, THEY HAVE NO BUSINESS HERE & COLLECTING WHAT THEY DONT PAY IN
“Illegal” implies there’s criminality where there’s only ambition. On net, they probably pay in more than they receive, because they’ll never get at what they’ve paid in Social Security taxes.
Geezzz, jimmy, don’t give them facts; it will just addle their already weak minds!
Well, George, while human life is goin on, there’s always the possibility of redemption, truth, and reconciliation, however remote.
We also agree that love rules!
It really is the only thing that will free this country from the religious/political infidels, aka extremist christian republicans!
And leftwing nut queers like you will trash what you can not understand. See you in hell boy.
Awww, how sweet! (I think you ‘like’ me!) However, you’re not my type… I prefer people with class, style, intelligence and the ability to know when to shut up instead of making fools of themselves in public and on the internet! Hell is not something that scares me… I’m on rock solid ground with the Savior, thank you!
It’s time to find out worthless one!
First we need to eliminate the anti American pukes like Georgie boy. THEN we will be on the right track once again when the worthless are dead and buried.
BULL, “ILLEGAL, ILLEGAL, ILLEGAL”ILLEGAL IS ILLEGAL” NO LIBERAL BS CAN CHANGE THAT, THEY DONT PAY ANYTHING THEY R “ILLEGAL, ILLEGAL ILLEGAL”
I DONT HAVE TIME FOR YOUR LIBERAL STUPIDITY, GO AWAY
What you really mean is that: “Yes, you’re right, but I’ll be darned if I’m backing down and lose a losing argument.” Admit it, Me… you goofed!
Irrelevant.
If they are paid under the table, and they are, they DO NOT PAY “iNCOME TAX”, “SOCIAL SECURITY”, ETC. (These taxes are not held out of paychecks, remember they are paid under the table – hello. The employer must pay matching with SS held out, so the employer wins again, another reason to hire the illegal) So, because they work cheaper, they get the job which knocks others out of a job because the legal cost more than the illegals. What of that don’t you understand? Oh, YOU believe that they come across the border illegally and then get hired like everyone else, pay into the system BUT, they don’t get the benefits of the taxes they pay. The only tax they pay would be sales tax when they purchase food and clothes or 20 of them rent an apartment. Not all states tax the same, some do not pay taxes on groceries. If they can buy a car, it would not be legal, they steal tags for the car that they buy under the table, do not have insurance…… the list goes on and you want to call them “undocumented” because they came here because of their “ambition”. Whatever their “reason”, they are still “illegal”. I have spoken with insurance representatives who have stated to me, the actions of illegal drivers in auto accidents (unless they are injured and can’t run), get out of the car and disappear, they have no license, insurance or ownership and usually “at fault”. Yea for the “undocumented”, they deserve….. BS. There are exceptions to everything I have written but, for the most part, it is spot on.
And all of these untoward dynamics are alleviated by continuing to force them underground, because…?
Yes! I know that you would reward all the illegals by giving them “freedom”, to say “welcome brother” and bring all your family, friends and neighbors, we will reward your illegal entrance, remove the crime, we want open borders, it will only make this Nation stronger, we will give you what ever you need, it will not harm America in any way as you are all such wonderful people, in fact, we welcome all the persons of the world, we are rich and our plates are full and happy to share, we know that you will reward us with your ambition. My solution is quite the opposite, we will close our borders, deport those that are found, first and more important, we WILL deport those who commit crimes and next those who are caught and not willing to work and become true American citizens. I do have compassion for those that were brought into the U.S. as babies and are growing up here as illegals. For those, they should have a pathway to becoming citizens, which in part would be learning or speak English, have committed no crimes and have enrolled in school (I’m sure there are many). After they have become citizens, THEN and only then will they be certified (through our colleges and universities) to obtain the license for their career occupations. Things given are not appreciated, things earned give pride and respect that makes them good citizens. I don’t hate the illegals, I feel many come to better themselves but not at the expense of American citizens. Fight for your country if not, soon it will be the country that you ran from. Don’t leave your home country and then try to make the country you ran to like the country you ran from. I don’t believe that all illegals are bad but I also don’t believe all of them are good. We have fought for this country (I am retired vet), I have no intention to give away what I have served for to gain freedom. I have no respect for those who want to give away to those who want to obtain what we have because they flee and take. There are no easy solutions and I have compassion for those who desire what we have because their leaders are corrupt, as if we did not have any but, individually I am not my brother’s keeper, I am selfish for my children, grand children and great grand children.
Deportation is both impractical and low-down mean, since it will forcefully break families apart in many cases.
Good on you for at least trying to develop a nuanced policy notion in carving out exceptions for undocumented children, and for probably recognizing that having a “free-fire zone” along some sections of the border isn’t a really great idea. But it is seriously suggested in forums like this.
Now THAT Mr. Seattle, is sick.
Really depends on who you are talking about in the “illegal” group. They came across the border Illegally, what part of Illegal don’t you understand. You have more compassion for those that commit a crime for whatever reason than the victims. Not putting apples and oranges in the same basket but, would appear to me that “well, he has a reason for breaking the law, so based on that, we will not enforce the law. If someone breaks into your home, steals something of value, maybe kills your dog or (?) in the process of his crime but, because he “needs” the money to 1) feed a drug habit or 2) feed his family, if it is 2) does he get a free ride or does he get the same punishment as 1). Same crime – different reasons. If the illegal kills his victim does it really make a difference what the reason is? Look how much money we could save by just letting them go, having to feed/clothing/medical the criminal, justice should be served by being practical. You commit the crime, you serve the time, crossing the fence, someone is going to be hurt. That should be the prime consideration anytime, anyone breaks the law, often – it is the children. If the Mother and Father are deported, the children go as well, if they were born in the U.S., sorry I don’t believe in anchor babies. Anchor babies should have the same nationality as their Mother. That should have been the law and hopefully that will be changed by congress. I guess you could say that is what is known as “collateral damage”, I don’t necessarily like it but, that in itself would be a deterrent in a lot of border crossing. Whatever the problem and whatever the solution, you can not please all the people all the time, so I would guess that is why we have judges. Unfortunately, politics will interfere with the application of law. Has been said, “It is not what you know but ‘who’ you know”. One thing for sure, your feeling and my feeling will not make the apple shine, we all have an opinion – pro or con. It may or may not ever get worked out. My last comments, have a nice day.
In reference to my last post and the one before, I have not forgotten the situation where, the parents crossed the border many years ago, or after the parents were in this country and gave birth to children….years and years ago…these children are not criminals, they have “grown” up in this country. The ones that were “brought” over as babies and have grown to adults, those are the ones that suffer and need the pathway to citizenship, is there a path – I do not know, if there is (?), why have they not taken it?
What is wrong with the American citizens in New York who put up with this liberal crap?
THEY RECEIVE ALL THE “FREE STUFF” U PAY 4
Why is it so hard for these idiots to not be able to distinguish the word Leagal and Illegal? That’s right they are idiots. Why support these illegal law breaking illegals who have no respect for our laws our citizens or our country?
New York State (and all similar) should lose their rights of statehood autonomy (not that it’s not already 95% eroded anyway). Let the neighboring states annex the areas, at least for, say, ten years. All politicos and government functionaries of the top echelons should be fired and banned from same/similar service for at least 15 years to keep them from polluting the pool all over.
Frankly, you can say, spew, rant, regurgitate, and implode, but the future movement of this beginning is that no person will be allowed to work without a Federal/State Diploma from a Federal/State institution of Higher Learning Grades 8-12+. IF… this is what it takes to bring the right wing political/religious extremists into line, so be it! I believe you do understand what this will do to the home-foole… errr, home-SCHOOLED individuals! Taking into consideration how small in number the disturbed, distressed, and disgusting minority is, it will go a long way in advancing our country and dealing with the malcontents!
It’s time to eliminate the worthless in American like Georgie boy.
Anyone knowingly hires an illegal should go to jail. Anyone in the law enforcement agency who does not deport illegals should be fired.
If they are ILLEGALS, they are not Americans and should not be allowed to teach. DEPORT all of them. What NY is doing is encouraging more ILLEGALS to breach our borders. This foolishness needs to stop. Mary Ellen Elia should support all of them from her salary. NOT from legal Americans. They should fulfill their dreams in their own country,where they belong. NOT IN OUR COUNTRY.
@Ellen: I agree with your notion, but I don’t think the Constitution or any of its amendments addresses the qualification of teachers, hence that comes under the Tenth Amendment and each state can do it as they see fit. Now if I had MY WAY – teachers (being more important to the long-term “general welfare”) would have to meet the highest requirements, like the President and be not just citizens, but “natural born citizens” for the same reason (I.e. they should have uncontaminated allegiance to the United States and its Constitution). Then I’d go farther and say no true Liberals, and no true Conservatives, only true patriots who have sworn and demonstrated their commitment to support and defend the Constitution as it was originally written and intended – neither the Liberal nor the Conservative corruption.
She was fired at the Hillsborough School District and NY accepted her? They gave them an F there. Now they are defying Federal law and hiring ILLEGAL school teachers. They should be made accountable. I will email her and what they are doing – RegentsOffice@nysed.gov
And you wonder why Trump is doing soooo well. Get rid of the illegals, The people are speaking with Trump
There are already programs designed for illegals that cost tax payers over $343 billion a year and now they want to give them jobs as teachers?
Despicable!
We always hear that we are a country of laws , and it is true . Now some want to say it’s O.K. to break this one but not O.K. to break that one . I would guess most of these people are good upstanding people too , BUT they still broke the law . It’s still he a slap in the face to those great people who become citizens of the United States of America the right way . Yes , let them go through the process and become citizens but until then they are NOT American citizens . This is the law and it should be upheld , and I would think if they want to be American citizens that they would not have a problem with that and would gladly go through the process . Lets give them the chance , but if they don’t or won’t then deport them with the rest of the illegals .
This is why we need Trump if this continues the unemployment rate for illegals will be 1 % but for Americans it will be 40%
This fascist commissioner of education, is attempting to destroy the middle class American worker while she hauls in a large salary to break the middle class worker by replacing them with illegal workers who work cheap…Time for True Americans to get together and march on this fascist and demand she be removed from her job immediately, before she destroys the entire education system in N.Y
If they are such fine teachers, send them home to educate their fellow non-US citizens in their own country. It would help their homeland and give them something to do. Third world nations need teachers, why do we need to send US citizens, send their own citizens. That would fit both the conservative and liberal ideals.
Would you expect anything else from Lurch the mayor of NY and his “wife”? NY is now officially 35% black 36% mex and whatever. It is going to be great to see who is left to pay for anything in that future Detroit
