Illegals Rushing For Border Ahead of Trump’s Inauguration

According to Border Patrol officials from California to Texas, traffickers and drug cartels are stepping up their efforts to get illegal immigrants across the border ahead of Donald Trump’s inauguration. Knowing that things at the border may quickly be different when Trump gets into the White House, these criminals are doing everything possible to take advantage of Obama’s lawlessness before it’s too late.

This week, Trump once again promised to build a wall across the Mexican border, even if it means using taxpayer money to get construction under way. One of his signature campaign vows, Trump skyrocketed to the top of the Republican polls in 2015 with a harder stance on illegal immigration than anyone else in the field. Ultimately, that stance was rewarded with the GOP nomination and the presidency. If Trump can afford to fail in some areas, this isn’t one of them. Conservative voters expect his administration to live up to Trump’s promises on immigration.

And if the rush to the border is any indication, illegal immigrants expect the same.

From Fox News:

“There’s definitely a percentage of folks who believed that they can beat the clock,” said Jose Villareal, chief of operations for the Border Patrol’s Rio Grande Valley sector.

On a recent ride-along in south Texas, Cameron County Sheriff’s Office Lt. Robert Rodriguez told FoxNews.com he has noted an increase in the flow of border crossers since Trump’s White House win.

“I can feel the anxiety,” Rodriguez said. “You can cut it with a knife.”

He said: “We see more and more people cross every day. … The cartels are taking advantage of people being scared.”

President Obama should look at this situation with shame. Criminals are going all out in the final weeks of his presidency because they know the next guy is going to enforce the laws of the United States. How embarrassing to have America’s enemies see your weaknesses so clearly.

Of course, it’s not like Obama presided over illegal immigration with incompetence. Unlike some of his mistakes, this one was no mistake at all. He deliberately refused to enforce the law and he made a consistent effort to undermine it. Like the rest of his party, he has seen how amnesty and “His-pandering” can work to the benefit of the Democrats – even if it means the eventual destruction of the United States.

“In November, U.S. Border Patrol apprehended 47,214 migrants along the southwest U.S. border – an increase of 44 percent compared with a year earlier,” Fox News reports. “November was the Border Patrol’s busiest month since June 2014. In the past six months, agents have caught nearly a quarter-million migrants — about 1,300 a day — trying to cross illegally.”

These people know the Obama Era is coming to an end.

To those that managed to sneak through…you may not want to get too comfortable.

      No it is not – ONLY THE CRIMINAL ILLEGAL ALIENS are in trouble now!!!! Remember the three words if you want to say something about this matter. TELL THE TRUTH!!!! 3 words!!!! I doubt that anyone will do a thing about the people who are illegal in this country but do not commit crimes this year, and if it is this year it will be after the wall is built!!!! It will be a national discussion and not a TRUMP ONLY DECISION! We are going to build the wall first!~!!!!!

        Agree 100%. The definition of illegal is something that is not legal. If you are here illegally you have broken the law by not coming here legally and according to our laws, you should have to pay the consequences. If you break another law after arriving here, that’s a diiferent offence and you should be deported immediately. Thousands of people have been waiting years to come to this country legally. They are being discriminated against for trying to obey our laws. That is not right. Nobody knows what will happen the the illegals who have not broken any laws since coming here, but they should not be given citizenship ahead of the people waiting and abiding by our laws, to become American Citizens. The thing that people need to remember is “illegal’ means that it is not legal and you have broken the law.

            Agreed! Those employing illegals most likely pay them in cash, a “win-win” on both sides. People employing illegals (no green card – and that program has been misused and abused) should be arrested & prosecuted.

          Very true. as Trump has stated, Mexico has been encouraged and allowed to abuse America for far too long. Mexico must be forced to find a way to employ it’s people besides drug and people smuggling, and non-taxed money sent home by it’s horde of illegal aliens in America.

    • Frederick King January 16, 2017 at 4:08 am Reply

      More dreamers. Trump should deploy troops to the border until something betteris thought of and deployed. The cities, and counties can’t afford to build schools for all the little illegals.
      mexico must pay dearly for their illegal immigrant industry.

        With a strong left leaning media, a weak president, a failed presidential candidate and a political party who just took a HUGE loss in the elections pushing buttons all over the country to build dissention amount the people – it has to be expected!
        The Democrats including their failed leaders from Obama down, are doing everything they can to draw debate and concern over the butt kicking they just got; the easiest way to make that happen is a massive effort to create confusion and dissention by claiming everything bad about Trump and the AMAZINGLY obnoxious suggestions about how bad Trump is going to be.
        – Sounds like the Democratic party is saturated with fortune tellers!
        He may not be the best or near the best we have had but he certainly has been successful in his own lifetime efforts; and the alternative would be disastrous (compare her success to his – she has a lot of failures and very little she can honestly claim as success! We should be able to see similar success in Trumps performance as our President; that though is not what the Democrats want. A Trump success will only highlight the failures of Obama and the Democratic party; they do need to rebuild their own reputation before the next elections and they can not do that by allowing the new bunch in Washington to succeed at ANY THING!

            The Democrats only interest in the illegals is votes they gain from legal (or illegal) voters wo ae encouraged with the help the democrats provide the illegals; with the number of sanctuary cities popping up it is obvious they have more supporters in the U.S. than I would have thought.

            Recall the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bill the Democrats tried pushing through on Obama’s first term? The bill was passed through the Democratic senate with ALL democrats and a few Republicans supporting it. It then went to the Republican lower house where several modifications were suggested. The Democrats would not support the changes so the lower house never signed off on it so Obama never got the bill.

            That bill had as much BAD in it as it did good. It might have got pass the lower house had the democrats been ready to debate, compromise and forward it, however, I strongly believe, there was never an intention to get it passed.

            The Democrats voted on the bill knowing the lower house Republicans would never let it pass. The Democrats in the Senate could then tell the world they were doing all they could to support the illegal immigrants, Obama would be happy and the Democrats could draw added votes from those who support the illegal immigrants. They knew though the Republicans would not support the bill as it was written and they (democrats) could then push the idea that the Republicans were the bad guys and the democrats were the good guys. Had the Republicans just “signed the bill and forwarded it” to Obama as he kept saying, we would have ended up in deep, deep problems (far more than we have.) . It served it’s real purpose though – it fooled the Hispanics into believing the Democrats were supporting them.

            The following years though should have shown the Hispanics and other illegal immigrants that the Democrats were not going to do a thing for them. That apparently became obvious as the Hispanics did not support Hillary in this years votes to the point the Democrats expected.

            There was no further efforts from the Democrats to do anything to help the illegals until Hillary started her campaign and the Democrats AGAIN started their massive push to impress the Hispanics in renewed attempts to suck up the Hispanic support. The obvious apparently became clear to the Hispanics as they did not support Hillary in this years votes to the point the Democrats expected. Hillary’s promises to us for an added million jobs here if she was elected is well known; when she left the Senate New York could not identify ONE JOB contributed to anything she HONESTLY did; typical political lie that caught up with her! The Democrats did the same thing to the African Americans in last years campaigns, talk and promises in order to draw votes but never do anything to truly earn the respect or votes!

            One of the main reasons to invite so many illegals into the country was to get their votes, didn’t work too well though. Now if the illegal immigrant issue is cleaned up you can count on it that there won’t be another democrat political win for quite some time even if they cheat ———- again.

      You’re absolutely right. Progressives and the liberal media continually, and intentionally, conflate these two issues as if they’re distinctions without a difference. But the differences are huge in terms of the Rule of Law in which a Constitutional Republic like ours must rely.

        They are doing that to confuse the issue. It is on purpose so we have to make this very clear every chance we get. If you saw Paul Ryan’s town Hall on CNN you would know that a person came with her child and said she was afraid that she would be separated from her child. First of all no one is going to spread her from her child. We are not inhuman after all. Second of all he told her not to worry about this now for her group is not being looked at for deportation only CRIMINAL ILLEGAL ALIENS ARE. Understand in that description there are Three words to remember! 1. Criminal, 2. Illegal, then 3. Aliens. Why is that so hard to remember for people?

        • McFerguson January 16, 2017 at 2:52 pm Reply

          Yes, I did see that town hall meeting and thought Ryan did as well as could be expected under the circumstances – a Mother, using excellent English, expressing concern for her young daughter. Although Trump spoke rather hastily during his campaign, there’s just no way we can launch a deportation squad to round up, maybe, 5 million illegals. Perhaps more. Many will undergo screening and be allowed to stay if they’ve been productive in their communities, learned English, and had no criminal infractions. Others will remain under the radar screen of the authorities and go on living here indefinitely simply because we don’t have the resources to conduct the rather extensive deportation or investigative procedures in every case. So,we need to secure the borders first, install E-verify throughout the nation to kill the lure of jobs, then whenever an illegal comes to the attention of the authorities by virtue of having committed a felony or some other serious infraction of the law, the full brunt of the legal mechanism must be activated to investigate, try, convict, imprison, then deport. Michael Savage, talk show host and author, says frequently that if a country doesn’t control its borders, language and culture, then it ceases to be a country. Whatever one thinks of Michael Savage, he’s absolutely right. Take care…

            Obama himself; some years ago stated that if we stopped allowing the illegals to work here they will leave. He also stated there are (at that time) over four million illegal immigrants working in this country ( a Texas research firm following Obama’s comments calculated the number at seven million). In spite of this, neither Obama nor his lap-dog Attorney General did nothing to remove the illegals from the workforce or take action against employers paying them.
            Our communities, states and federal government are loosing Billions and Billions of dollars ever year while these illegals remain here and on top of that, we are paying out billions additional costs to attend to the illegals needs in schools, in hospitals, in housing and food subsidies; WORSE – is the 30 million American workers being kept out of the workplace as immigrants continue taking American jobs, Obama’s labor department says that three (3) out of four (4) new jobs is being taken by the immigrants.
            WE MUST enact E-Verify, we must identify employers who continue to violate federal laws by employing illegals – – we need to respect the needs of our American workers and their families.
            – – – – The “Minimum Wage Laws favor the Illegal Workers I this country FAR more than they help Americans in need of work! – – –

            THE HIGH COST OF ILLEGALS – $113 billion per year

            It is no secret that the southern U.S. border is open, allowing
            thousands of people to pour into the country illegally. Ironically,
            Congressmen on both sides of the aisle in Washington are not inclined or
            don’t have the will to do anything about it. Although most support
            legal immigration, there are huge differences on how each side believes
            illegal immigrants and the security of our borders should be handled.

            Liberals
            generally support amnesty for those that enter the U.S. illegally.
            They also believe that ―undocumented immigrants‖ should have all the
            educational and health benefits that citizens receive including
            financial aid, welfare, social security, and Medicaid.

            Conservatives
            are against amnesty for those who enter the U.S. illegally. They
            believe that those who break the law by entering the U.S. illegally do
            not have the same rights as those who enter legally and obey the law.
            They also believe that the Federal Government should do a better job
            enforcing current immigration laws.

            Whether you call them
            ―illegal immigrants‖ or you call them ―undocumented immigrants, the
            undisputed fact remains that when a person crosses the border without
            the proper authority, he/she is breaking U.S. immigration law. Just to
            be clear, there may be some immigrants that had green cards (or other
            legal authority) that either did not renew or replace an expired or lost
            card. This would be analogous to someone who let their driver‘s
            license expire and then proceeded to drive a car. They would be doing
            so illegally. Nevertheless, to put all illegal immigrants into the
            undocumented immigrant category is ludicrous.

            It is estimated
            that there are between 11 and 30 million illegal immigrants in the
            country and that they account for 13.6% of all crime in the United
            States. No matter where you stand on this issue, the facts show that
            the direct and indirect financial costs are enormous. The following
            2013 statistics were extracted from the website fairus.org.1 Illegal
            immigration costs U.S. taxpayers about $113 billion a year at the
            federal, state and local level. Most of the costs (around $84 billion)
            are absorbed by state and local governments. That amounts to an average
            of $1,117 per household. The variance per household is higher or lower
            depending on the demographics of illegal alien populations. Education
            costs absorbed by state and local governments are estimated at $52
            billion annually. Although illegal immigrants that work are required to
            pay income tax, most don’t. Those that do get much of it refunded
            because they are in such a low income bracket.
            According to the
            Bureau of Economic Analysis, illegal immigrants residing in the U.S.
            send $50 billion back to their home countries each year.2 When you
            include legal immigrants, The World Bank estimates the amount to be $120
            billion.3 That is money that is not put back into the U.S. Economy.

            According
            to National Review, $1.87 billion was spent in 2014 on incarcerating
            illegal criminal immigrants.4 In 2009; the Department of Homeland
            Security estimated the percentage of illegal immigrants that are
            incarcerated to be between 11 and 15 percent of the country’s prison
            population.5 Almost all the financial burden was shouldered by the
            states. The State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP), which is a
            federally funded program, does pay for some cost.6 However, it does
            not really matter because it all comes out of taxpayer dollars.

            The
            Government Accountability Office (GAO), using official Department of
            Justice data on criminal immigrants in the nation‘s correctional system,
            reported the following: – Between 2008 and 2014, 40% of all murder
            convictions in Florida were by criminal immigrants. In New York it was
            34% and Arizona 17.8%. In addition, during those years, criminal
            immigrants accounted for 38% of all murder convictions in the five
            states of California, Texas, Arizona, Florida and New York.7 That 38%
            represents 7,085 murders out of the total of 18,643.

            It gets
            worse: Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) removed (deported)
            235,413 criminal illegal immigrants nationwide in 2015, 49% percent of
            whom had previously been convicted of a criminal offense.8 Although the
            numbers are down since 2012, they are still substantial. Do the
            reduced numbers mean that there are less illegal immigrants coming into
            the country or does it mean that ICE has less resources to do their job
            or does it mean they are told to stand down? In 2013 and 2014 ICE set
            free more than 66,000 illegal immigrant criminals who had over
            166,000
            convictions (30,000 for drunk or drug impaired driving, 414
            kidnappings, over 11,000 rapes or other sexual assaults, and 395
            homicides).9 Since their release, many of those have already been
            convicted of new crimes including felonies.

            It gets worse: The
            invasion of illegal immigrants has established and empowered many in the
            form of street gangs. Their growth is fueled by money obtained easily
            through drug smuggling and sales. A 2011 FBI report makes many
            connections between the Mexican drug cartels and various U.S.based
            gangs.10 An out of hand financial and social disruption cost to
            American citizens just continues to grow.

            To make matters worse
            yet: Laws in sanctuary cities help shield illegal immigrants from
            deportation, despite astonishing statistics on violent crimes committed
            by illegal immigrants. These laws, in many cases, are in direct
            opposition to Federal immigration laws. Sadly, the U.S. Senate refuses
            to crack down on America‘s nearly 300 sanctuary cities.
            A 2014
            Reuters article stated that a Reuters/Ipsos poll showed that 70% of
            Americans are deeply worried that illegal immigration is threatening the
            nation‘s culture and economy.11 Concerns include job losses, the
            social landscape, how much insurance costs rise, and other related
            issues.
            Since illegal immigrants typically take low skill, low paying
            jobs, it would be logical to surmise that some portion of those jobs
            are being taken away from legal immigrants. When that happens, few good
            choices remain for them. They are usually left with the choice to go
            back to their home country, get some kind of aid, or enter a life of
            crime.

            Illegal immigration is totally out of control and our
            elected leaders know it. Securing the borders and fixing the illegal
            immigration problem should be demanded by the American people.
            Unfortunately, only about six percent of the population thinks it is a
            major problem (a sharp decline since 2014). They are either not aware
            of the enormity of the issue or they are more concerned about other
            issues.

            The social landscape is rapidly changing and it puts all
            legal citizens at risk for the security of their families and homes. As
            a consequence, it reduces their choices as to where they live, shop,
            and travel.

            Hillary’s Economic Plan Will Destroy America-Just Look at Seattle

            Hillary Clinton’s campaign is a hodgepodge of pandering and
            conflicting promises and ideology. Much of it spurns from trying to win
            over the Bernie Sanders crowd, and the biggest concession comes from her
            adoption of a $15 minimum wage platform.

            This ideal is a beacon to the economically ignorant and accounts to
            little more than a candidate literally trying to buy votes. This may
            feel like a harsh analysis, but there are huge quantities of minimum
            wage data, and despite the wildly different circumstances of
            implementation, they all point to a few common themes.

            The most prevalent is that wage hikes that are too aggressive tend to
            hurt minimum wage earners the most, even if the economy can absorb the
            overall costs. Very recently, the adoption of a higher minimum wage in
            Seattle is very telling.

            Seattle Data

            Before hitting the numbers too hard, remember this one important
            note: even the most progressive economists agree that a minimum wage
            that exceeds 60 percent of the region’s median wage is dangerous. In
            practice, that number is much lower.

            Another important fact to understand about Seattle is that the
            schedule for wage hikes depends on the size of the employer and a few
            other factors, so not all employees have the same true minimum wage.

            The first scheduled increase hit the city April 1, 2015. The absolute
            lowest wage any employer could pay at that point rose from $9.32 to
            $10.00. Since then, the city has seen overall job and wage growth
            comparable to the rest of the nation.

            What sets Seattle apart is the job change in the minimum wage
            category. Before the hike, Seattle led Washington and the country in
            low-wage employment growth. As soon as the hike went into place, Seattle
            growth for minimum wage dropped from over 7 percent to under 1 percent.
            In that time, the same industries have seen accelerated job growth in
            the rest of the country.

            Another big factor is also worth noting. Excluding individuals who
            have lost employment entirely, minimum wage jobs in Seattle have cut
            overall employment hours across the board. So, while the payment per
            hour of work increased, the overall number of hours worked has dropped
            accordingly.

            What is the end result?

            Minimum wage earners under the new law are earning the exact same
            amount of money per week as before, plus or minus five dollars a week.

            Many proponents of the wage change will still call this a win, since
            earners are making the same money with less time, but the overall
            distribution of wealth and wages is completely unchanged, with the added
            negative of a massive decline in job growth. If the trends hold, the
            impending wage hikes coming each January for the next four years could
            push jobs into an overall decline.

            Projections for the Rest of America

            Do you remember that point about minimum wage and median wage? It’s
            time to revisit that point. The median wage in Seattle is currently
            $75,331, or $37.67/hr. The current minimum wage of $10.00 is only 26
            percent of the median wage and already economic issues are being
            observed.

            Comparatively, the nation as a whole has a median income of $53,939,
            or $26.97 an hour. A $15 minimum wage would be 55.6 percent of that.
            That’s dangerously close to the catastrophic 60 percent projections made
            by the most liberal economists, and it is more than double what has
            been seen in Seattle so far.

            Domestic data shows that this would at minimum represent devastating
            losses for the lowest income earners, but what does it mean for the
            country as a whole?

            One of the best ways to approach the problem is to look at contained
            economies that have experienced excessive minimum wage. The obvious
            example is Puerto Rico. The current minimum wage in the territory is
            $7.25, which amounts to 77 percent of the region’s median income. Since
            that wage hit Puerto Rico in 2009, there has been total, widespread
            economic ruin. The territory is in danger of defaulting on $72 billion
            of debt, with no achievable solution in sight.

            Understanding just how far minimum wage problems can reach, the best
            way to look at how Clinton’s plan will affect the country is to break
            the U.S. into regions. State borders make this easy. Going by the 60
            percent rule, only 20 states currently could sustain the $15 minimum
            wage without catastrophic results. Using a slightly more modest 50
            percent rule, only 11 states would survive.

            Regardless of the breakdown, this policy is an example of pandering
            to voters even at the expense of their well-being. Don’t expect to hear
            the Clinton Campaign talk openly about jobs numbers in Seattle, because
            the truth does not look good.

            Secure the borders FIRST; the failed concept of enforcing our immigration laws!
            We have, and have had, immigration laws and an immigration program for this country for years and years; laws and a program that served several previous presidents over the past years.
            Our problem was a president who decided he was smarter than those before him and decide not to enforce the immigration laws.
            We would not be in the immigration mess we are in had Obama done his job – – the job he tool an oath to do.
            We do need to secure our borders BUT the wall will mean noting if we do not enforce the immigration laws and if we continue just taking names and letting the illegals continue coming.
            FIXING the immigration mess MUST be a simultaneous effort of stopping the illegal migration into our nation, finishing the wall that was previously approved (during the Regan administration) and allowing the border patrol to do their job.
            We NEED Comprehensive Immigration Reform’ – not as one huge sweeping effort but a modernized program taken in careful steps that looks at the mess we are in, how we got into this mess, and what we need to fix it and NEVER ALLOW it to happen again.
            We could pay almost everyones Health care costs for what the illegals In this nation is costing our communities, states and the nation!
            Turning our back on the violations of illegal enter into this country, the illegal remaining in this country, the illegal working in this country, the HIGE costs to communities, states and the nation, financially and socially, is unsatisfactory; turning our backs on these issues is a great part of why our nation has become so violent and we see growing lawlessness throughout the nation.
            When authorities turn their back on the laws and ignore the violations of our laws they breed lawlessness; fro the past eight years we have seen that not only in our growing immigration mess but in respect for law enforcement and elected government representatives.
            Our nation will not last much longer if we continue to make excuses for not obeying our laws and living up to our duty to defend our nation, to protect our nation and to see that our constitution ALWAYS remains the guide for the quality we expect our nation to always be! We can see what doing nothing, ignoring our laws, and making excuses has resulted in; we may be too late as you are correct – it may be impossible to deport the massive, massive number of illegals that have been allowed to enter and remain in this country over the past 12 years; Doing To Little, Too Late is the basis for our immigration mess!

            Our immigration laws and the nations immigration program based on our federal/national laws supports your argument.
            HOWEVER, Obama chose to ignore those laws; the same laws numerous presidents before him accepted and managed the immigration problem with some success. Obama though felt he is far superior to his predecessors and by his own admission and in conflict with his oath of office , would not enforce the federal laws.
            Those are the same laws Obama forced Arizona (and several other states following Arizona’s lead) to drop their state efforts to defend their states against the massive problems being created by the flood of illegal immigrants entering this country. OBAMA and his lap-dog Attorney General (Holder) said managing immigration is a federal responsibility; BUT, neither Obama nor Holder did anything to manage the problem at all; AND, Obama later said, referring to the same laws, that the immigration laws are ineffective. He and his Administration was the ineffective part of the problem!
            Just as he said he would deport ANY illegal immigrant who commits a crime in our country; he lied. Just as he drew his red line in the sand then did nothing when it was ignored – he lied! He seems to have been competing with Hillary Clinton to see who could lie the most!

            When POTUS takes office he/she takes a solemnly sworn oath to uphold and abide by the Constitution of the USA and to obey the laws on the books. Obama not only didn’t uphold the Constitution but looked the other way in terms of immigration and supported busing in illegals. As a person being represented by these lawmakers I want to know why we don’t hold them more firmly accountable?
            I was amused at his commentary the other day regarding his administration being without major scandal, WHAT? Is he dope sick from the lack of mules bringing in product from south of the border? You have to be kidding me, illegal immigration alone is the first scandal, Iran being the next and of all scandal’s and it certainly isn’t the last would be Hillary’s EMAIL Jamboree. Yes anointed one, it happened on your watch, remember same time as the weird video that caused the Libya issue, you know right before your next term. You have no legacy!

          Are we to be held responsible for the results of illegals making fecisons to come here and remain here I violation of our laws?
          These mother and ffathers are responsible for tier own actions; if they bring kids here with them or they come here illegally and have kids here they are still the parents and have a responsibility for their kids.
          Illegals facing deportation still have a responsibility for their kids; it is not up to this country to accept responsibility fot the kids; those brought illegally into this country or those born to the illegals while they are in this country!
          These parents have an obligation as the parents and as adults. They made the wrong decisions – way should anyone else be held responsible for their knowingly violating laws that will result in problems for them and their kids when they are caught? We have enough of our own problems without accepting the problems of others who created their mess themselves! They can take their kids with them when being deported. If the kid is a U.S. citizen (that law needs to be changed – kids born to a person illegally in this country SHOULD NOT get automatic citizenship status.) or the family can put the child up for adoption or given up to a foster family until the family can legally return or the kid is old enough to be on his/her own in this country.

            That is not decided totally it is only the 3 words right now. However that will be decide after the wall and I feel like you I feel it was an invasion because it did not stop with Mexico it spead like a virus and they came and over time they started taking American jobs or rather they were given American jobs and now with Ford not going down there they feel we are now taking their jobs. This whole thing is wrong and I do not think children born on this soil are American citizens when their entrance into this country was illegal. I also do not think Refugee children should be born here with Citizenship. This to me is a major problem creating Children in this country with parents who could care less about this country in regards to Refugees who were told to go here and did not chose to come here. Did you know that the Refugees do not know what country they are coming to from the UN group who places them! They did not know they were coming to America from their countries. Now for the southern group they break the law coming here so why are we so surprised they have killed and stolen things in this country. I know this from personal experience. While they get low paying jobs they steal what they need to live here. They get packing jobs for moving companies. Ever wonder why stuff does not show up when you get to your new house? I have lost 3 vacumn cleaners, and other things like coats etc. I have major reasons to see them go home and I don’t think because of the other Presidents who did not do their job that we have to pay for their indecision on doing their jobs. I don’t disagree with you but NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO PUSH THIS NARRITIVE OR WE COULD LOSE IT ALL!!!! To much to do and not enough time to do it. Timing is everything – now it is the criminals

          • DAlnB41 January 16, 2017 at 7:25 pm

            I grew up in a farming area where the farmers relied upon immigrant workers every year. Those workers brought their families with them including there kids. We played most of the summer together and always looked forward to them comin here. At the end of the season they all packed up and went back home.
            I can only assume they were all here legally; we never had any problems with them and no one ever discussed their status; at our age we never knew anything immigration anyway.
            . There was a special area built up for them to live in; it had all the floors and frame work for tents. There were play areas, cooking areas, places for washing and drying clothes and benches for the families to use, shower and restroom facilities; as nice as most federal camp grounds are today (Far better than millions of unemployed Americans living in cardboard boxes in our alleys and on dich banks today have!). For many of us, the seasonal workers had as good and maybe better accommodations than a lot of the families in the area.
            As we grew older we would work the fields with the immigrants. We would even have bar–b-cues at the camp grounds with them. We all enjoyed it and were saddened when it came time for them to return home.
            Eventually, the farmers improved their process with better equipment and automation, we lost our jobs as the immigrants continued coming in the early summer and taking what few jobs remained. Family men who had counted on the seasonal jobs to get their families through the year were left out as the immigrants filled what few jobs remained.
            I have a lot of respect for those who come here legally; but, my career has been in the military (27 years) followed by a second career in criminal justice system (including four years as a traffic judge) and I have a deep and loyal respect for the law. Our nation is (was) a nation of laws we are all expected to comply with. In the past years though many of our laws have been ignored or twisted to support agendas of those with the money to influence our representatives in Congress and the White House. Many of those, including Obama, have turned their back on our laws and our working men and women for the wealth of a few who can capitalize on the illegal workers.
            America will never be the great nation we once were as long as we allow our laws to be manipulated by politicians.
            We Can not exercise or appreciate our rights as citizens when we can not control our government; we can no longer claim to be a democracy when we allow, or give up our rights to a government who choose to ignore us.

          • Katie Jones January 16, 2017 at 10:50 pm

            actually we are not a democracy but a representative Government and I agree with you I also am for the LAW and we have not had it for a very long time. It is all about what our representatives want and if you listen to them speak you will hear them say that. “I don’t think”, ” I am not going to do that”, It has become all about them and their careers and that is why we are working very hard to get the Convention of States done for that is what we have all figured out is they are up there to long to think that they will always be there and it is their career. We are going to put term limits on them as a Constitutional amendment so that this is not considered a career anymore. I have had the way to speak to us as if it is their opinion that counts. Basically, some have forgotten to “represent” their voters.
            Please make sure your state is working on the convention of states for now they are saying that they are going to put term limits on themselves. They are trying to stop the Convention of States and McConnell has already stated he is not going to pass that kind of bill. He has been up there 30 years does that give you a hit on why we must do this and look at McCain as well. We need to drain that swamp for sure!!!

          • DAlnB41 January 20, 2017 at 1:00 am

            I have always been opposed to term limits based on the idea that IF we get a good performing person in a political office we need to keep them. They are too scarce and dumping one who does stand up for the people and the nation would be a terrible thing to do.
            BUT, I have come to accept the idea that maybe it is best to dump the scarce few than to have to condone the waste we keep getting back every election.
            The major problem we have is the lack of control over the people we send to Washington, They at go three with great intentions but they are soon brainwashed by party leaders. New representatives are fully aware that they are expected to follow the party’s agenda. Failing to think, say and do as party leaders want will result I no appointments to key committees, no backing on any bills the new representative presents and no assistance when it comes time for reelection.
            You hit the nail ion the head when you mentioned Mitch McConnell; he and Harry Reid have built their empire on manipulating their parties.
            Better than Term Limits would be more control over the people we have in Washington.
            Those people allegedly draw their power from us; but we have no control over that person or his/her power once they are in office. Recalls and impeachment is beyond the power of the people! Only when it is time to vote someone else into office and hope they serve us better do we have any control over them.
            Unfortunately, massive budgets to buy media support, flowery talking candidates can buy their way into office over and over again; it seems the more corrupt they are the better chance of them getting into office! We see it over and over again. With the greed for the dollar and a media that sucks up everything they can in order to pocket another dollar, we the people, have little power over anything anymore.
            Government is expected to represent the people; power of the government is dependent on the will of the people; or it should be – – for the past years we have seen a national government that is only interested in the people when they want reelected; – – term limits may be the only thing that will sustain our nation.

          • Katie Jones January 20, 2017 at 8:58 pm

            It they can only stay up there 2 terms in the Senate then they don’t have time to make relationships with Lobbiest and they will have to work to get things done. Texas has a every other year legislature and then they can only meet 180 days to get things done. It works down here so let’s see how it will work in Congress to give them only two terms. I am sick of 30 year vets who think they own the place and teach that to the others who come up there to get things done. Chuck schumer, McConnell, McCain, notice who causes the problems – they are up there to get rich!!! That is why McCain needed to win this time to go back and make more money for no one else would hire him.!

          • DAlnB41 January 20, 2017 at 9:53 pm

            You don’t think many of those elected into congress/senate were financed by special interest groups/individual’s in order to run? The relationships were more likely established a long time before the new representatives run for office or take seat in their new jobs.
            Also; expertise comes from experience. Knowledge comes from experience, skill and ability comes from experience.
            I agree that we need to see those in representative positions DO REPRSENT US In the manner and fashion we expect them to do. If it takes laws limiting them to short terms we may have to push for it.
            I though would rather see the voters given greater power without HUGE financial costs to recall and impeach those we find to be dishonest, lazy or on the take and ignoring he promises they made to us.
            If ANY OF THEM can show they are working for us with constituents their first priorities, and they have the skill to get things done, we need them!

            BUT I DO AGREE WITH YOU – we need the power to control the performance, hhonesty and longevity of any of those we send to Washington. JAIL TIME and LARGE FINES for those who sell their influence and those who buy their illegal influence should be the order of the day.

            greenlantern1, you’ve got a bad case of selective blindness, but fear not, it strikes all progressives/liberals/cupcakes/ snowflakes/democrats/socialists. The treatment is submersion in the founding documents for at least two weeks, beginning of course with the Declaration of Independence. I know it’ll seem scary, threatening and new to you, but, if you must, call another recovering faculty member if you can find one and ask him/her to hold your hand while withdrawing from severe progressive-ism. Soon you may become a strong, resilient, self-reliant person who may, with help, realize that you, are the master of your soul, not government. Good luck. Now the answers to your questions: No; yes; undetermined. Take care, cupcake.

          • McFerguson January 17, 2017 at 8:07 pm

            What a revolting development this is! You’re absolutely right about something, cupcake – a rare occasion. I was aware that Trump had donated money to Romney’s campaign but didn’t think he actually endorsed him. But the Trumpster did, in fact, endorse Romney for POTUS in 2012. Since liberals are usually wrong about virtually everything, I’d thought you had simply manufactured some “fake news” and called a campaign donation an endorsement. I’m struck that you got it right! What happened? I imagine you were in the faculty lounge playing chess with another whiny liberal who’s done nothing but talk for forty years, and completes a peer-reviewed research project every decade or so, when in walks the conservative freshman, all of 18 years old, and gives you the research skinny on Trump that you’d assigned him. Good work, buttercup, my therapy regimen is working. You’re learning, but you obviously need more bright, young conservatives at that institution of higher learning.

You write, for example, “Trump endorsed the NATIONAL ENQUIRER!” So? They outed lyin’ John Edwards, democrat loon running for POTUS a few years ago, right? I’d endorse them, too, less the space aliens, of course.. What more do you need to know? You continue with the vapidity: “Rush Limbaugh CLAIMS to have stand down cables.” What does that even mean? I’d suggest you contact your health care provider, advise him that you’re even more insipid than usual, and ask him what you can take, to er…you know, stoke the I.Q. a bit, enhance the understanding, get up, come down, or anything you can inhale to stop the perpetual lameness.

    It is ever so common to note that when any wrong is uncovered, the errant runs for cover. That is why the criminal thieves and murderers in our society always seek to run away from their miss deeds. They fear
    the light of discovery for what they do and are. Misfits who are not fit for the place and air they breath in
    their a civil society. Thus it is and has always been.
    Access to our nation and its citizenry has always been available to those who seek it honestly. Those who
    are here outside the established procedures know of their transgression. No matter how long they have
    gotten away with their illegal presence, it is still illegally gained on their part and they know it.
    The light of a new political administration is about to seek them out and they fear it. So, they are for the
    moment headed back from whence they once came. They were never here to prosper our country with their labor but parasitically sought to drain off anything of value they could legally or illegally grab. The evidence is in their resistance after many years here in our country to not follow the required rules for citizenry even to the point on not wanting to even learn the nations language. There is nothing wrong with being bilingual! The problem exist when that frame of mind isolates one from fully functioning outside their familial environment.
    They are rushing to be southern border in droves. They and their parasitic nature will not be missed.

    Trump is planning on doing what Obama should have been doing; controlling immigration, keeping illegal immigrants out of this country and deporting illegals who commit crimes while in this country.
    BUT – although we need a decent wall to HELP control the illegal entries into our country – that is not the real answer! AND – the wall will not stop a fare percentage of the illegals entering this country; many of them come here legally but then refuse to leave when their legal visit is up; they too add to the huge number of illegals here and because most of them came here on work permits they have established a record of employment that allows them to seek out more jobs and assumed legal status! Obama himself has pointed out we have more than four Million illegals working in this country – – but he has done nothing about it; IT IS LIKE he is proud of the mess he has made of our immigration program!
    We could build double, 50 foot high walls covered with razor wire and filled between with water and alligators and it will not do the job!
    NOT DO THE JOB as long as the Border Patrol continues with Obama’s directives regarding entries at the border and the subsequent passive, long drawn out process of handling illegals in this country.
    Our problem starts with Obama, runs through the Secretary of Homeland Security (DHS) and those in sanctuary cities who find profit in letting the illegals remain and work in their communities.
    Obama, through the Sec. of DHS, has directed the Border Patrol agents to apprehend illegal immigrants crossing the order, identify and record them, then turn them loose to continue on into the U.S.
    That allows more illegals into our country. Thee illegals are then supposed to report to an immigration hearing before an immigration judge who hears the illegals case. The illegal is then released with instructions they will have to return at a later date to receive the judges decision. These illegals are released onto our streets where they are free to move about. The return to the court, expected to take four to six months, ends up taking a year, year and half and some times longer. Many never return and are still wondering around our country.
    Many who do return to court have become the parent(s) of a child born in the U.S. while waiting for the court return. They then complain the United States is breaking up families by forcing the parent(s) deportation; and Obama agrees with them.
    The border Patrol has complained that DHS and Obama are preventing them from doing their job; they know that and the American people know the Obama Administration is the greatest cause for the immigration mess we have in this country.
    We DO NEED the wall (or fence) but in addition to that we need to allow ICE and the Border Patrol to do their job.

    The communist manifesto states to bring down the USA do it from within. One way of doing this is the continued importation, regardless if it is by ramping down the boarder control or ordering the police to stop checking for green card it is all the same. obama is a communist, he studied in Russia and his dad was a communist. He has been working the last 8 years to bring down America, through no immigration policy, disarming our military, assault on Christians and bringing into this country unwanted muslims and having a hatred for the Israelis. This country should recognize that muslims hate Israel and what it stands for and that idiot obama has proven it over and over. We the people do not want Israel hurt as obama has done but this is nothing more than a muslim tactic to chip away at the only country in the middle east with balls enough to hit any country around them that is causing a problem and they are good. Remember they are the ones to got WJC on video raping those 26 Lolita girls on “Orgy Island” owned by jeffery epstein which Willileaks brought to us.

      They are also dangerous as their Koran demands the infidel be beheaded. There is no place in America for these people. CAIR, the Muslim brotherhood in our country, needs to be disbanded and their members who Obama has employed in all the alphabet depts. across the board, should immediately be FIRED, for they are complicit in wanting to incrementally and fundamentally transform our laws. Their desire is to set up Sharia Law. We have 22 Muslim compounds in 9 states, where Americans are forbidden to enter under threat of harm. We are allowing this seditious behavior in our country??? I hope Trump gets the military into those 22 compounds and deport these unpatriotic, mostly ILLEGAL Muslims who refuse to assimilate, and deport them back from where they came from.

      • pineapple January 19, 2017 at 11:53 pm Reply

        The Muslim Brotherhood, the terrorist organization that the Obama regime refuses to admit is terrorists, is ramping up its efforts to infiltrate the American way of life, making Shariah law be held above the very document and set of laws upon which
        this country was built – the Constitution.

        Investors Business Daily (IBD) reports on a very disturbing effort by a group that is attempting to sell itself as simply a Muslim coalition. The Muslim Brotherhood is working actively towards developing a third political party, “turning Muslims into an Islamic voting bloc.”

        ‘Muslim voters have the potential to be swing voters in 2016,” said Nihad Awad in launching the benign-sounding U.S. Council of Muslim Organizations, whose membership reads like a Who’s Who of Brotherhood front groups.

        “We are aiming to bring more participation from the Muslim community.”

        USCMO also aims to elect Islamists in Washington, with the ultimate objective of “institutionalizing policies” favorable to Islamists — that is, Shariah law.

        This development bears careful monitoring in light of the U.S. Brotherhood’s recently exposed goal to wage a
        “civilization jihad” against America that explicitly calls for
        infiltrating the U.S. political system and “destroying (it) from
        within.”

        The subversive plan was spelled out in hundreds of pages of founding archives that the FBI confiscated from a
        Brotherhood leader’s home in the Washington suburbs after 9/11.

        Translated from Arabic, the secret documents listed a number of Brotherhood front organizations — some of which just happen to make up the newly formed USCMO.

        Among the groups involved in this attempted takeover of the American political system and destruction of America as we know it is the Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). This group is been directly linked to
        the terrorist group Hamas not just in the way of verbal support, but financial support as well.

        Another group is the Muslim American Society, described as “the overt arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States.” According to Investors, his group praised Osama bin Laden as “a visionary who believed in an Islamic state in Afghanistan.”
        That’s right, the man responsible for the death of so many Americans at the hands of Muslim terrorists described as a ‘visionary’ by a group that wants to take over the American political system.

        The article continues to reveal just how dangerous and disturbing this plan to form a new Islamist party truly is. Oussama
        Jammal, the chair of the new party, led a mosque in Obama’s hometown of Chicago named Bridgeview Mosque. The history of this mosque, and the fact that its leader is attempting to infiltrate the American political system, should send a chill down the spine of Americans everywhere.

        One of that mosque’s leaders was arrested and jailed for funneling millions to Hamas. And one of its most honored guests was bin Laden’s spiritual mentor, the late Palestinian cleric Abdullah Azzam. Some of Azzam’s relatives are Bridgeview members.

        “The walls were covered with Hamas posters and recruiting literature showing masked gunmen brandishing automatic weapons. . . . You could see daggers plunged into Jewish hearts wrapped up in American flags,” said Steve Emerson,
        describing the mosque in his book “American Jihad.” “They even had a library filled with terrorist videos.”

        As Bridgeview’s president, Jammal blasted the FBI for arresting terrorist members and even expressed doubts that al-Qaida was responsible for 9/11.

        Not to worry. As head of the USCMO, he’ll see to it that the council places “premium” importance “on defining the common good based on the Quran and the model of the prophet (Muhammad), and coordinating institutions to implement that common good in American society.

        IBD reports that the group has a 30 point policy platform for “promoting Islam’s core universal principles to benefit American society.” A $3500 yearly payment is required of any Muslim who wants the ability to vote within the group and $1000 if one wants to merely join.

        This is definitely a development that must be watched. The purpose of this planned Muslim political party is certainly not to simply give Muslims a voice, but rather is part of their plan of worldwide domination and dismantling of America and the United States Constitution

    I see all the comments about building the wall and illegal Mexicans, but not one comment about the tens of thousands of people who come here legally with visas and then never leave. They are here just as illegally as the poor Mexicans looking to better there lives. I’m not sticking up for them, I fully understand many are criminals and the act of trespassing is criminal in itself. The wall only stops the people who can’t afford to fly over it. There needs to be a way to track and deport the illegals who come here legally initially as well.
    Will we, as Americans, have to carry and present our visas at any point (or check points ) just to travel within America in order to catch this type of illegal entry? Will cracking down on illegals in all these ways destroy our freedom to travel within our own country? I don’t know the answer to this but since the Patriot Act took away all our freedoms and liberties already, where do we go from here? The wall is a good start but just the beginning…

    If any of the probably 20 to 30 million “illegal aliens” in this country, (real figure) are willing to leave on their own accord, I say our government should declare a public “amnesty” for that offense & assist them to leave the country, for a prescribed time, say 3 to 6 months!

      The more people we need to govern the more money we need to payout. The more money we need to pay out the more money our government has to dig up. The more they need to dig up the more taxes and fees the government has to dig up.
      Illegals and legal immigrants in this country are sending portions of their income earned I the U.S. back to the countries they come from. That is having a tremendous and costly effect on our municipalities, states and federal government.
      It is accepted that a dollar spent in a community will circulate ten times before it leaves that area. IF, sales tax in that area is 7%, that dollar spent will generate seven cents in sales tax; that sales tax helps local and state economies. Without that money local funding is hurt; it recovers by increasing taxes and fees or juts nor getting done what needs to get done.
      If that dollar circulates ten time, that dollar will generate seventy cents before it leaves the area. If we consider the amount of money being sent out of this country we can easily see the impact it is having on local streets, sewer and water care, street lights, law enforcement and fire protection, parks and recreation, help for local indigents, education and health care. All the things supported by local residence through taxes.
      I at one time had a chart developed by one of the research companies that showed each state and how much the estimated loss of local and state revenue is due to this transfer of money out of the country, That same chart showed the costs to local and state governments based on the illegal immigrants in their areas; it did not include the legal immigrants. I lost , or at least can not find that chart now (IF you run onto it I would appreciate seeing it again), but it was amazing how much the real cost of illegal immigration in this country is costing us.
      And it is not just the illegal immigrants that are creating this problem. Congress approved one million work permits for legal immigrants into this country. Obama added an additional 25,000 legal immigrants to come here and work; with 30 million Americans out of work it is hard to believe that Congress and the White House would be allowing anyone to come here. America needs work for our own men and women!
      The truly sad thing about the reality of this is the fact that the illegals are here in great part because our government has turned failed to enforce federal immigration laws so many industries, employers and wealthy people can benefit from cheap labor! (low wages and no benefits.)
      Obama is quick to pint out how many NEW jobs are filled each month What he does not include in his statements though is how many immigrants have taken those jobs. His labor department has stated that THREE out of FOUR new jobs is being taken by immigrants.
      Obama does not talk about how many jobs have been lost during the month either; half-truths and twisted facts has been Obama’s trade mark. We all pay the price, tax payers and those who are out of work; we all pay a huge price and it just keeps going up and up as we allow more illegal and legal immigrants into our society! Those unemployed feel the pain as they fight for survival of their families, the tax payers pay the cost for the governments to support community and state needs; we all loose except the illegals who benefit from our social support activities.

    I do not want illegals in my country, and I do not want them taking jobs from citizens, who must then be supported by the taxpayers. I do not agree with Trumps solution. They will just borrow under the wall and keep coming. They come for jobs. Arrest and fine the eimplyers who hire them. When the jobs dry up they will go home at their own expense. The few that still keep coming will be the criminals. When the border patrol is no longer overwhelmed by the flood of job seekers they will be much more able to stop the rest. At that point the rest should be sentenced to 2 years at hard labor and put to work repairing our infrastructure. If we still have cities who would defy the law and declare themselves sanctuary cities, the people responsible should be put in prison, for their crimes against our people and our government.

      I am with you 110%; we do not need the illegals in this country! We do nopt need them – we have far to many working men and women in need of jobs to be allowing these illegals to come her and work and we do not need them coming here and living off the tax payers.
      Obama himself stated some time ago that f the illegal immigrants do not have jobs they will self-deport. BUT, he also said we have over four million illegals working in this country and he did nothing to stop them or prosecute the employers they worked for. Doing nothing seems to have been Obama’s attitude in handling problems; do nothing and the problem will go away JUST DOES NOT WORK!
      Sadly there are several sates that passed state Minimum Wage laws; those laws reward the illegals working In the U.S. FAR MORE than they do any good for the Ameriacn workers in need of work.
      We do need E-verify and we need to enforce the federal laws that prohibit illegal immigrants from working here; with that we need to prosecute any employer who allows them to work. WE ALSO need to prosecute all local leaders who provide sanctuary for illegals; they are ripping off Tax Payers money, they are hindering American workers from getting jobs, they are tapping into our social welfare programs (tax payers and others) and they are making America less safe; we can expect those cities to become havens for the terrorists who may also slip into this country and need a place where they can do their planning, plotting and carry out their terrorist attacks. .

        The high cost of illegals: $113 billion per year.

        It is no secret that the southern U.S. border is open, allowing
        thousands of people to pour into the country illegally. Ironically,
        Congressmen on both sides of the aisle in Washington are not inclined or
        don’t have the will to do anything about it. Although most support
        legal immigration, there are huge differences on how each side believes
        illegal immigrants and the security of our borders should be handled.

        Liberals
        generally support amnesty for those that enter the U.S. illegally.
        They also believe that ―undocumented immigrants‖ should have all the
        educational and health benefits that citizens receive including
        financial aid, welfare, social security, and Medicaid.

        Conservatives
        are against amnesty for those who enter the U.S. illegally. They
        believe that those who break the law by entering the U.S. illegally do
        not have the same rights as those who enter legally and obey the law.
        They also believe that the Federal Government should do a better job
        enforcing current immigration laws.

        Whether you call them
        ―illegal immigrants‖ or you call them ―undocumented immigrants, the
        undisputed fact remains that when a person crosses the border without
        the proper authority, he/she is breaking U.S. immigration law. Just to
        be clear, there may be some immigrants that had green cards (or other
        legal authority) that either did not renew or replace an expired or lost
        card. This would be analogous to someone who let their driver‘s
        license expire and then proceeded to drive a car. They would be doing
        so illegally. Nevertheless, to put all illegal immigrants into the
        undocumented immigrant category is ludicrous.

        It is estimated
        that there are between 11 and 30 million illegal immigrants in the
        country and that they account for 13.6% of all crime in the United
        States. No matter where you stand on this issue, the facts show that
        the direct and indirect financial costs are enormous. The following
        2013 statistics were extracted from the website fairus.org.1 Illegal
        immigration costs U.S. taxpayers about $113 billion a year at the
        federal, state and local level. Most of the costs (around $84 billion)
        are absorbed by state and local governments. That amounts to an average
        of $1,117 per household. The variance per household is higher or lower
        depending on the demographics of illegal alien populations. Education
        costs absorbed by state and local governments are estimated at $52
        billion annually. Although illegal immigrants that work are required to
        pay income tax, most don’t. Those that do get much of it refunded
        because they are in such a low income bracket.
        According to the
        Bureau of Economic Analysis, illegal immigrants residing in the U.S.
        send $50 billion back to their home countries each year.2 When you
        include legal immigrants, The World Bank estimates the amount to be $120
        billion.3 That is money that is not put back into the U.S. Economy.

        According
        to National Review, $1.87 billion was spent in 2014 on incarcerating
        illegal criminal immigrants.4 In 2009; the Department of Homeland
        Security estimated the percentage of illegal immigrants that are
        incarcerated to be between 11 and 15 percent of the country’s prison
        population.5 Almost all the financial burden was shouldered by the
        states. The State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP), which is a
        federally funded program, does pay for some cost.6 However, it does
        not really matter because it all comes out of taxpayer dollars.

        The
        Government Accountability Office (GAO), using official Department of
        Justice data on criminal immigrants in the nation‘s correctional system,
        reported the following: – Between 2008 and 2014, 40% of all murder
        convictions in Florida were by criminal immigrants. In New York it was
        34% and Arizona 17.8%. In addition, during those years, criminal
        immigrants accounted for 38% of all murder convictions in the five
        states of California, Texas, Arizona, Florida and New York.7 That 38%
        represents 7,085 murders out of the total of 18,643.

        It gets
        worse: Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) removed (deported)
        235,413 criminal illegal immigrants nationwide in 2015, 49% percent of
        whom had previously been convicted of a criminal offense.8 Although the
        numbers are down since 2012, they are still substantial. Do the
        reduced numbers mean that there are less illegal immigrants coming into
        the country or does it mean that ICE has less resources to do their job
        or does it mean they are told to stand down? In 2013 and 2014 ICE set
        free more than 66,000 illegal immigrant criminals who had over
        166,000
        convictions (30,000 for drunk or drug impaired driving, 414
        kidnappings, over 11,000 rapes or other sexual assaults, and 395
        homicides).9 Since their release, many of those have already been
        convicted of new crimes including felonies.

        It gets worse: The
        invasion of illegal immigrants has established and empowered many in the
        form of street gangs. Their growth is fueled by money obtained easily
        through drug smuggling and sales. A 2011 FBI report makes many
        connections between the Mexican drug cartels and various U.S.based
        gangs.10 An out of hand financial and social disruption cost to
        American citizens just continues to grow.

        To make matters worse
        yet: Laws in sanctuary cities help shield illegal immigrants from
        deportation, despite astonishing statistics on violent crimes committed
        by illegal immigrants. These laws, in many cases, are in direct
        opposition to Federal immigration laws. Sadly, the U.S. Senate refuses
        to crack down on America‘s nearly 300 sanctuary cities.
        A 2014
        Reuters article stated that a Reuters/Ipsos poll showed that 70% of
        Americans are deeply worried that illegal immigration is threatening the
        nation‘s culture and economy.11 Concerns include job losses, the
        social landscape, how much insurance costs rise, and other related
        issues.
        Since illegal immigrants typically take low skill, low paying
        jobs, it would be logical to surmise that some portion of those jobs
        are being taken away from legal immigrants. When that happens, few good
        choices remain for them. They are usually left with the choice to go
        back to their home country, get some kind of aid, or enter a life of
        crime.

        Illegal immigration is totally out of control and our
        elected leaders know it. Securing the borders and fixing the illegal
        immigration problem should be demanded by the American people.
        Unfortunately, only about six percent of the population thinks it is a
        major problem (a sharp decline since 2014). They are either not aware
        of the enormity of the issue or they are more concerned about other
        issues.

        The social landscape is rapidly changing and it puts all
        legal citizens at risk for the security of their families and homes. As
        a consequence, it reduces their choices as to where they live, shop,
        and travel.

    I have had enough of ALL IMMIGRATION and it should be stopped in ANY WAY NECESSARY. ALL ILLEGALS and REFUGEES need sent back to where ever they came from—NONE are welcome in America. Close the damned borders and arm them to kill. To aid in the process all Communist Democrats need removed from office and none should ever be elected again EVER!

    They will have zero I’d and should be picked up and if necessary deaged by the neck back across the border from where they came from. Men women and kids it makes no difference. Kids will be getting the raw deal given to them by so called parents, coyotes dealers and fools charging them to sneak across. Feel for the kids but they to are illegal. We must clean these rotten sacks if ILLEGALS out and replace them with LEGAL IMMIGRANTSnot a bunch of druggies and dealers. This tush to America is a new fad to get FREE FREEeverything. Stay to hell home apply like all of our ancestors have become legal citizens with America in your hearts read write and speak English or your nothing but an ILLEGAL.

    America will never be the same after the Obama years. But its time the Mexicans put on the big boy pants and fix their country instead of running to the US. Mexico is a beautiful country. If they would get serious about the graft and drugs they could stay there and make a living. Mainly their complaints hinge on our taxes. They just don’t want to pay ANY. Sweden, Germany and other countries. In large part the refugees are men. Why aren’t they taking part in keeping their countries instead of running like a bunch of children?

      Obama himself said the illegals in this country IF there was no work for them. According to Obama, they are here because they want jobs; and he allowed them to remain and work here. However, the vast majority of them were at that time were not and are not working. Obama said there are 4 million illegals working in the U.S.; that is about 36% of the estimated illegals in the U.S. Obama also says they take jobs Ameriacn workers will not take due to the low wages and type of work.
      SO – how are the other 64% of the illegals getting by? That question is easy; they are living off the Ameriacn economy, the economy so many Americans have lost their homes too, lost their life savings to; the economy that has come to favor the wealthy, the Big business CEOs and Presidents, industry, massive farms and wealthy investors – – while the vast majority of Americans still struggle from day to day others in our nation are becoming rich; – – while 30 Million Americans are out of work, millions of illegals (and millions of legal immigrants) continue to work here – ALL WITH THE BLESSINGS OF OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY!
