The Child Incursion

Posted on by

Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, Jeh Johnson is a busy man spinning the disaster at the Southern border laying blame on Congress.

illegals

Although the Obama administration labels the flow of children a “humanitarian” crisis rather than an enforcement problem, Mr. Johnson said he has directed agents to go after the smuggling networks that control the traffic across the border and are thought to be responsible for encouraging Guatemalans, Hondurans and Salvadorans to cross the U.S. border.

He also said the U.S. needs a “robust” public relations campaign to discourage Central Americans from attempting the journey and to warn of the dangers along the way.

Sadly however, Johnson is so wrong on every front as this insurgency was concocted by the White House exclusively and effectively advertised and sold to Central and South America effectively.

Newspapers in El Salvador and Honduras are promoting policies by the Obama administration that defer deportation to minors brought to the United States as children by their parents — known as “Dreamers” — and those that are housing illegal children at military bases in the South and West.

Signed by President Barack Obama in 2012, the policy grants temporary legal status to many young illegal immigrants, ending the threat of deportation for at least two years.

The policy, however, does not entitle the immigrants to state services. It was renewed for two more years.

“With the renewal of DACA, we act according to our values and code of this great nation,” Johnson said. “But the biggest task of comprehensive immigration reform is yet to come.”
In November 2011, then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced that the U.S. was pledging $100 million to support Latino entrepreneurs through a public-private partnership dubbed La Idea. The effort, Clinton said, “brings together diaspora communities, the private sector, and public institutions to work on some of the toughest issues we face.” She noted her excitement about one of the central elements of La Idea: a pitch competition calling for “ideas for new businesses that will create jobs and promote trade and investment” in Latin America.

Similar to other entrepreneurship programs backed by the U.S. government in Africa and the Caribbean, the La Idea contest revolves around the idea that the more than 2.3 million Latino entrepreneurs in the U.S. have plenty to teach their counterparts in Latin America, and vice-versa. The big idea is to encourage them to form partnerships and expand their ventures across the Americas to spur economic development, says Jane Buhks, a marketing and communications specialist at New York-based Accion U.S. Network, which is handling the contest’s administration.

The borders of North America under the Obama administration are only implied now and have no significance. There are many government agencies that are part of the edict from the Obama White House such that it involves, DHS, State, DoJ, Department of Education and Health and Human Services, all these secretaries have signed on. The rewards for the illegals are wide and deep at the expense of the taxpayer all without notice or approval.

A new federal policy allows young unauthorized immigrants who are low enforcement priorities to remain in the country temporarily. The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) policy allows the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to exercise prosecutorial discretion in granting administrative relief from deportation for young people covered by the policy. A person who receives deferred action is considered to be lawfully present. Deferred action status, however, does not grant the immigrant any substantive rights, legal immigration status or a pathway to citizenship. Deferred action recipients are not eligible for the Children’s Health Insurance Program or Medicaid, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Deferred action is permitted for a period of two years and can be renewed.

Those granted deferred action may apply for work authorization. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) began to accept applications for deferred action as of Aug. 15, 2012. This policy change was made via a policy memorandum issued June 15, 2012, by the secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

The most important document of all is from the State Department, which demonstrates and aggressive and proactive objective to reach out to other countries, any country and encourage them to come to the United States, joining all races and cultures into one and the very easy path to U.S. citizenship.

Sovereignty is damned, the definition of ‘citizen’ is damned, law are damned and the taxpayer is damned.

 

Obama’s 2012 Pen, Today’s Border Insurgency

Posted on by

The truth is fleeting but the other scandal that is surfacing now beyond the boatload of others from 2012 orchestrated by the Barack Obama re-election team is the border insurgency by children.

Barack Obama ordered Janet Napolitano to instruct Border Security agents on deferred action and she complied. There were restrictions to this new lawless order, yet compliance is occurring which is no surprise.

So, now Barack Obama’s pen is about to cost tax payers at least $2 billion to handle the insurgency. This is going to cause chaos that had yet to be fully realized that includes illness, disease, food, shelter, investigations, transportation, education and burdens on states and the military that are not poised to handle.

Immigration agents are so overwhelmed that some children are being kept in detention and being processed during a longer time period than the 72-hour maximum requirement, these senior administration officials acknowledged. The officials briefed reporters on condition of anonymity.

Although they said they had been prepared for an increase this year in the Rio Grande Valley, the influx was much greater than anticipated. As many as 90,000 minors are forecast to enter the U.S. this year without their parents or guardians, the officials said.

The legacy definition of the word ‘citizen’ has been re-defined. The tangible and implied borders of the United States have vanished and the fact is there is no crisis in Central America causing the influx of this trafficking. This is all a condition of politics that was concocted in 2012 such that the wake of the disaster is being realized today and creating huge challenges for states and a handful of military  bases where Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel has ordered some military bases to handle a humanitarian crisis.

One must remember the Mariel Boatlift was a crisis where Carter took a stand and reversed to influx of Cubans.

This is human-trafficking sanctioned by Barack Obama and deemed so by a Judge.

‘Many of the children there were sleeping on plastic boards. According to the Associated Press, toothbrushes and toothpaste hadn’t arrived yet and were expected Monday. Hundreds of children had not bathed in days, and were taking turns using just four showers. Tony Banegas, Honduras’ honorary consul in Phoenix, told the AP that there were 236 Honduran children there on Saturday, including an 8-year-old’.  Read more here and take a look at the disgusting conditions Barack Obama, Janet Napolitano and Jeh Johnson created.

An estimated 60,000 such children will pour into the United States this year, according to the administration, up from about 6,000 in 2011. Now, Washington is trying to figure out how to pay for their food, housing and transportation once they are taken into custody.

The flow is expected to grow. The number of unaccompanied, undocumented immigrants who are under 18 will likely double in 2015 to nearly 130,000 and cost U.S. taxpayers $2 billion, up from $868 million this year, according to administration estimates.

The shortage of housing for these children, some as young as 3, has already become so acute that an emergency shelter at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, has been opened and can accommodate 1,000 of them, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said in an interview with Reuters.

The issue is an added source of tension between Democrats and Republicans, who disagree on how to rewrite immigration laws. With comprehensive legislation stalled, President Barack Obama is looking at small, administrative steps he could take, which might be announced this summer. No details have been outlined but immigration groups are pressing him to take steps to keep families with children together.

The minors flooding over the border are often teenagers leaving behind poverty or violence in Mexico and other parts of Central America such as Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala. They are sometimes seeking to reunite with a parent who is already in the United States, also without documentation.

“This is a humanitarian crisis and it requires a humanitarian response,” Senate Appropriations Committee Chairwoman Barbara Mikulski said in an interview. The Maryland Democrat, a former social worker, has likened the flood of unaccompanied children to the “boat people” of past exodus movements.

Barack Obama and his team broke a system, broke the law, broke enforcement and had no plan or intention to fix it, now when this crisis has reached an epic status, it will cost the taxpayers big bucks.

VA, Gang-Green-Gate

Posted on by

Too bad Eric Shinseki left government service at the lowest point of his career, he should have and he deserves a scarlet letter for shame.

Alas, the VA audit report is here, it does virtually nothing to solve what the whistleblowers have revealed.

For reference, the House Veteran Affairs Committee did their job and contacted Shinseki by letters more than once. While letters seem feeble or shallow, they are in fact a part of Congressional record, such that Shinseki could never claim ignorance of the gigantic malfeasance that required and begged for his attention and action.

White House now says the VA is deploying “mobile medical centers,” hiring staff to try to address 57,000 patients waiting for health appointments, this is coming from an audit report.

 

The House passed at least 6 bills in the last several years in an earnest attempt to fix the VA. By virtue of these bills alone should have gained the attention of Shinseki as every government agency has a congressional liaison that keeps pace with all legislative actions. All the legislation passed by the House, arrived in the Senate and well, Harry Reid and of course Senate Veterans Affairs Chairman Bernie Sanders were too busy at lashing out at other matters like the Koch Brothers to take up the measures.

VA death

Given the gravity of the VA and the solutions passed by the House, there is zero excuse for the Senate leadership to claim stupid on the matters, there is a paper trail and congressional record to prove the actions. Both Harry Reid and Bernie Sanders belong before ethics committees for violations, they belong in an investigation by FBI for being complicit in perpetuating death, sickness and actually falsifying government documents.

Where is the outrage? How many moral compasses are broken? What were the DNC’s talking points? Where was Barack Obama? Where was the White House Chief of Staff?

A whistleblower in Arkansas reported a patient choked on his own vomit and died the next day because emergency equipment was not properly stocked at the Department of Veterans Affairs hospital in Little Rock.

Another whistleblower said a patient died from a heart attack at a veterans’ hospital in Maine after the on-duty doctor failed respond to an emergency code, delaying proper treatment for more than two hours.

—-

The Democratic-led Senate Committee on Veterans Affairs failed to hold sufficient oversight hearings into problems at the Department of Veterans Affairs despite Republican demands dating back more than a year to do so.

The VA, moreover, failed to provide the committee with information necessary to address problems, congressional insiders say.

The committee, chaired by independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who caucuses with the Democratic Senate majority, held only seven oversight hearings to address problems, three legislative hearings to discuss new bills, and two markups to rewrite legislation in the 113th Congress that began in January 2013.

The committee’s lack of initiative angered Republicans on the committee, who wanted to address health-care issues like the kind that led to secret waiting lists and preventable veteran deaths at the Phoenix, Arizona VA Medical Center.

In Jackson, Miss., seven whistleblowers came forward with allegations that patients’ health was jeopardized by filthy conditions and unread imaging tests like X-rays.

Other practices in Jackson included scheduling patients to see doctors in fictional “ghost” clinics or double booking appointment times, which often resulted in the veteran going unseen.

It got so bad at the Jackson hospital that the Drug Enforcement Administration suspended prescription-writing authority for some of the staff at the facility.

The whistleblowers continue to investigate and report VA issues and yet there have been no immediate solutions offered. But hey the proposed Senate bill includes the construction of a new VA care facility in Hawaii and perhaps as many as 37 more new locations CONUS at a cost of $500 million. Oh, so more places and more money spent but no real method of fighting past the fraudulent paperwork, the secret lists or frankly the smell of disease, gangrene and death?

The outrage must continue and be placed at the feet of the White House and the two stewards of the White House, Sanders and Reid.

West Point Speech and Why

Posted on by

Barack Obama has hidden his concern for terror threats and most often he has re-labeled it as an ‘overseas contingency operation’.

Then only recently did he give a speech at West Point explaining his foreign policy which he was forced to do for at least two reasons, the recent kidnappings and deaths at the hands of Boko Harem and the immediate release only a few days after the speech of the Taliban 5 from Guantanamo.

Okay, so where does that leave America for the next several years as Barack Obama has forced the shrinking of the United States footprint globally? Well, Barack Obama’s lack of policy and leadership with allies point to the very real possibility of NATO crumbling itself. This leaves China and Russia and especially the entire Shiite and Sunni world in a race for the top slots of globally power rankings.

In context, the lack of will and the aversion to colonialism at the hands of Barack Obama, simply removed the United States from the short list of the keepers of peace globally in six short years, something that experts predict will take at least fifteen years to ever begin to reverse, others predict as much as forty years and that is only if there is a collection of Reagan prodigies on the horizon. Not much hope so far.

One of the topic intelligence analyst with a real and candid background for saying what must be said is Michael Vickers. Here he is in his own assessment. Take it for your deep consideration.

global map

 

WASHINGTON: If you want to understand why President Obama spoke so much about terrorism in his widely panned West Point speech, the head of Pentagon intelligence explained it pretty well today.

Click here to see the video of Vicker’s message.

Terrorism is and remains the top threat to the United States, Defense Undersecretary for Intelligence Mike Vickers said this morning at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. The most interesting, and some would say anomalous, threat assessment he offered: China comes in at number seven after Al Qaeda and its affiliates, the Syrian civil war, Russian “revanchism,” Iran, North Korea and what he called the “persistent volatility” across South Asia and the Middle East and North Africa.

That’s right, China appears to come seventh when the Intelligence Community is planning and advising President Obama and Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel. It makes sense when you consider the long-range goals China appears to have set itself and the absence of a direct confrontation — so far — between the two powers.

Now folks in the Intelligence Community may well tut tut and profess that they examine each situation as it occurs, but budgeting requires prioritization and here it is.

What does all this mean in aggregate to the Intelligence Community and the Pentagon? Vickers said, “[as] senior intelligence officials, we haven’t seen this range of challenges on an administration’s plate in our careers.” Not only is the range of threats geographically enormous and conceptually varied, they are, as Vickers noted, “these are highly asymmetric challenges.” In Pentagon parlance that means the United States military isn’t necessarily well prepared to cope with them. And there are a lot of them.

Is Mike Vickers arguing that the Intelligence Community needs to remain very well financed, even in this age of declining defense budgets? Sounds like!

 

Imam’s Don’t Care about Rape Gangs

Posted on by

It is clear that parts of England are under siege by Muslim men and the respective Muslim leadership and Imans don’t care. It is with some satisfaction that local Christians are taking the fight right to the local UK mosques. Even PM David Cameron and law enforcement is taking notice.

So it is the Muslim Rape Gangs that is but one component at issue and if you don’t think it is not our worry in America, then you are sadly mistaken.

So taking the fight to the Muslim’s front door can be seen here.

Muslim Child-Rape Gangs in Britain

It recently emerged that British police had known for more than a decade that Muslim rape gangs were targeting young girls, but they ignored the evidence of rapes because “they were petrified of being called racist.” Rather than acknowledge that there is a problem, Muslim groups have decided to play the victim card instead. They are working overtime trying to silence public discussion about Muslim sex crimes by branding critics as “far-right racists” and “Islamophobic.” Several of the men on trial in Liverpool apparently told their victims that it was all right for the girls to be passed around for sex with dozens of men “because it’s what we do in our country.”

Chilling testimony can be read here. A full summary of rapes in the UK is here.

Now for America and this is even more terrifying.

 

Muslim Rape

Detroit imam sentenced to 35-50 years in prison for raping girls

Mohammed Masroor, who used to teach Islam to students in Detroit and Hamtramck, was convicted earlier this month on 15 counts in the sexual assaults of three young girls, who were his relatives, in 2000.

The case drew attention because the Wayne County judge handling the case, Michael Hathaway, ruled that victims, who are now adults, and other witnesses could testify wearing the niqab, a religious face veil that covers the entire head except for a narrow slit that shows the eyes. It may be the first time in the U.S. that a judge allowed women to testify while wearing a niqab.

Judges in England and Canada ruled last year in separate cases that women could not testify wearing the niqab. But prosecutors in Wayne County said women in Masroor’s case should be allowed to testify wearing the veil, and Judge Hathaway agreed.

Prosecutors said Masroor used his knowledge of religion to manipulate his victims, who ranged in age from 10 to 13 at the time of the assaults.

Masroor’s attorney, Mitch Foster, has said his client maintains his innocence.

Why Muslims Rape

In Bangladesh in 2011, a 14 year-old girl, who was sexually assaulted by her 40 year-old cousin, received 100 lashes for her “adulterous” behavior. She did not survive her punishment for being a victim. Over the past decade, several hundred women have been flogged in Bangladesh under similar circumstances.

Flogging is the punishment for fornication in Islam, whether the woman had casual sex by choice outside of marriage or was raped. Without four male witnesses or the confession of the attacker, no rape case can be proven, according to Shariah law. So if the victim is “brazen” enough to report the crime, she is thus admitting to having sex, which in itself is a crime if the sex was not with her husband. And in normal circumstances, a rapist would not attack in front of any witnesses, unless they were also a part of the attack. Facing such dire punishments, it is highly probable that most Muslim women would not dare report these attacks, even if they need medical attention.

With such laws, it’s no surprise that rapes have become a part of Muslim culture. During the “Arab Spring” in Egypt, hundreds of women were raped in Tahrir Square by those Egyptians who were glorified in the West as “fighters against the cruel dictatorship of Mubarak” and who then voted for the Islamist Muhammad Mursi and made him the President of Egypt. Then, just 13 months later, those same Egyptians again crowded into Tahrir Square and enthusiastically supported the military coup against Mursi  “for democracy”–  and in just four days raped 130 more women on the way to that democracy.

Sadly no local or federal lawmakers see a pattern of Muslim crimes in America, all the facts are there. Perhaps America needs a like organization to the Britain First Defense Force, our own law enforcement are not allowed to be proactive.
