We think Mexico got Trump's message

 

 

Mexico begins deporting migrants who rushed the border Monday

by John Sexton

 

Original Article

 

Yesterday a caravan of roughly 2,500 migrants stopped trying to cross Mexico’s southern border by bridge and instead waded across the river and attempted to get past a line of Mexican National Guardsmen waiting on the other side. That led to some rock-throwing by both sides but hundreds of migrants wound up being taken into custody by the Mexican authorities. Today, those migrants are already being deported by bus and by plane: …1,000 had tried to enter illegally Monday…and hundreds of them were apparently detained by Mexican National Guardsmen and immigration agents.

 

 

.

 

Much more enforcement by Mexico's national guard to prevent the caravans from moving forward.   Note that most of the migrants are from Honduras, which was on the road to recovery until a certain Secretary of State supported an illegal government transition, which then sank any prospects for economic improvement.

In the latest example of sanctuary madness, a U.S. city is awarding an illegal immigrant with a cash settlement because police detained him for federal authorities after being arrested for driving under the influence. The 29-year-old perpetrator, Edgar Torres Gutierrez, eventually pled guilty to a lesser charge of reckless driving and his pro bono attorneys from a nearby public university sued the city for violating his Constitutional rights as well as a statewide sanctuary law. Under the agreement, Gutierrez will receive $18,750 from taxpayers in the California coastal municipality where he lives illegally. Local police officers will also be forced to watch a training video involving sanctuary measures for the next two years.

Imagine if every American city paid each of them a settlement for cooperating with federal authorities. Gutierrez came to the U.S. illegally from Mexico when he was three and takes responsibility for the “actions” that led to his arrest. He said this in one local news report: “I acknowledge that and I am at fault for that and I am dealing with the consequences of that.” However, the illegal immigrant added that police should not be working with ICE to deport undocumented aliens like him who are protected under DACA. He is calling on fellow illegal immigrants to speak up and come forward when they feel there’s been an injustice or if their “rights” have been violated. After taking a victory lap, his publicly-funded lawyers filed another complaint this week with the Laguna Beach Police Department that will require more taxpayer resources to defend.

Emboldened by sanctuary policies and open-borders groups that offer free legal representation, a growing number of illegal immigrants are filing lawsuit demanding rights in the U.S. Last year seven illegal immigrants detained in a workplace raid sued the federal agents that arrested them, claiming that they were racially profiled for being Latino. In a federal court complaint their pro bono attorneys asserted that ICE agents violated the illegal aliens’ Constitutional rights against illegal seizures and to equal protection under the Fourth and Fifth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. Months earlier a separate lawsuit resulted in a federal court ruling that illegal immigrants can sue American employers that refuse to hire them because they require workers to be U.S. citizens or legal residents (green card holders).

The comments on that post were mainly from people with no understanding of the law. First of all, that isn't a new law. 2nd, immigrants used to have to have sponsors that were already here. 3rd, the Ninth Circuit isn't and can't overturn a SCOTUS ruling. Dumb *****.

Jorge Ramos: “Mexico Is Now The Wall”

 

Jorge Ramos has an opinion piece in the NY Times today in which he argues that Mexico’s president Obrador is making a terrible mistake by, essentially, becoming Trump’s border wall:

Mexico is now the wall. President Trump got his wish.

 

The heart-wrenching images documenting a recent confrontation in the state of Chiapas, near the border with Guatemala, are evidence of this. Dozens of Mexican National Guard troops equipped with helmets, batons and transparent shields coalesced on the highway connecting the Mexican cities of Ciudad Hidalgo and Tapachula to stop a caravan of migrants heading to the United States from Central America.

 

The guardsmen used pepper spray on the caravan, which as of mid-January included about 4,000 people, many of them women and children. In the end, hundreds were detained, sent back to Guatemala or deported to Honduras. A spokeswoman for the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights condemned the actions of the National Guard, saying that the use of force to stop and disperse immigrants should be avoided.

 

I wrote about the confrontation on Mexico’s southern border as it was happening. What Ramos doesn’t tell readers is that Mexico closed the bridge the caravan attempted to cross and, when that failed, hundreds of migrants crossed the river and attempted to enter Mexico illegally. Because the Mexican national guard was waiting on the other side of the river, the migrants began throwing stones and bottles at them. That’s why the guardsmen were wearing helmets and carrying riot shields.

 

{snip}

 

 

But as far as Ramos is concerned, Mexico should simply allow these migrants to pass through as if the borders of Mexico didn’t exist:

What should Mexico be doing with migrants from Central America? Just let them go through and protect them as they do so, instead of repressing them. They are fleeing extreme poverty and gang violence. Their only hope is to get to the United States. The Trump administration, not the López Obrador administration, should be receiving them and deciding whether they should be granted political asylum.

Ramos is an intelligent guy. He knows that most of the Central American migrants he’s talking about are economic migrants (he even admits as much) who are not eligible for asylum in the United States. In the past, they would claim asylum and then be released in the US, many never to be seen again. That’s not asylum it’s gaming the system.

 

If Mexico goes back to letting these people pass through unhindered, that means the US border goes back to the chaos of last spring and summer when the entire border system was overwhelmed by the number of daily arrivals. You may recall Democrats were screaming about people being held in bad conditions in overcrowded “concentration camps.” Why would anyone in the US want a return to that?

 

Instead, we’ve had eight straight months of declining border apprehensions. If this keeps up, our immigration courts may eventually catch up with the backlog that often stretches more than a year to hear asylum cases. Again, that’s a good thing and much better than the chaos at the border that following Ramos’ advice would soon create.

COLORADO: Bill to prevent arrests on courthouse grounds advances; sets up state conflict with federal immigration law.

 

Senate Bill 20-083 by Sen. Julie Gonzales, D-Denver and Rep. Leslie Herod, D-Denver purports to immunize anyone “present at a courthouse or on its environs from civil arrest,” and gives judges the authority to issue a “writ of protection” that would, among other scenarios, prohibit Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrests of illegal aliens.

 

The bill also creates a cause of action in civil court for false imprisonment that allows damages and authorizes any person so arrested or detained to “seek a writ of habeas corpus” that requires the arresting official to appear before a judge to justify the arrest.

 

The state Attorney General is authorized to “bring a civil action on behalf of the people of the state” as well.

 

 

 

 

 

If they were working on our behalf, they wouldn’t be pushing this bill.

Uh... have they not heard of the Supremacy Clause? Also, how do they think that a state court has any authority to grant a writ over someone in federal detention? Though it would be quite hilarious for someone to try to sue the agents or federal government in state court with this "civil action" nonsense.

Border Patrol Will Deploy Elite Tactical Agents to Sanctuary Cities
 

Agents from a special tactical team that normally confronts smugglers on the border are being sent to sanctuary cities across the country.
 

The Trump administration is deploying law enforcement tactical units from the southern border as part of a supercharged arrest operation in sanctuary cities across the country, an escalation in the president’s battle against localities that refuse to participate in immigration enforcement.
 

The specially trained officers are being sent to cities including Chicago and New York to boost the enforcement power of local Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, according to two officials who are familiar with the secret operation. Additional agents are expected to be sent to San Francisco, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Houston, Boston, New Orleans, Detroit and Newark, N.J.
 

The move reflects President Trump’s persistence in cracking down on so-called sanctuary cities, localities that have refused to cooperate in handing over immigrants targeted for deportation to federal authorities. It comes soon after the Justice Department and Department of Homeland Security announced a series of measures that will affect both American citizens and immigrants living in those places.
 

Lawrence Payne, a spokesman for Customs and Border Protection, confirmed that the agency was deploying 100 officers to work with ICE, which conducts arrests in the interior of the country, “in order to enhance the integrity of the immigration system, protect public safety, and strengthen our national security.”
 

The deployment of the teams will run from February through May, according to an email sent to C.B.P. personnel, which was read to The New York Times by one official familiar with the planning.

</snip>

The agents will not be busting down doors or engaging in shootouts, said one official with direct knowledge of the operation, who like the other official would not be identified because he was not authorized to discuss it.

DON SURBER ON IMMIGRATION:

 

“Florida’s E-Verify bill will likely push 140,000 illegals out of Florida jobs and make it difficult for employers to hire replacement workers at current wages, says a university study funded by the investors who are trying to block the E-Verify bill.

 

“If ‘existing undocumented workers were to exit the Florida economy in the number anticipated were E-Verify adopted, the adequate numbers of native workers would not be available at current wage rates,’ says the draft report funded by FWD.us, an advocacy group for billionaire investors, including Mark Zuckerberg.

 

“‘This is basically making the case for us that employers are employing illegal workers to keep wages low and to increase their own profits,’ said Rosemary Jenks, director of government relations at NumbersUSA. ‘If they can’t replace those workers at the same [pay] level, then, oh my gosh, then they are going to have to increase wages [for Americans]. … It is exactly what should happen.’ . . .

 

“The biggest winners from the E-Verify bill would be the least paid, least educated workers in the economy, said the study by Rick Harper, an economist formerly at the University of West Florida.”

 

Hey Republicans.

 

This is how you get black votes and Hispanic votes. Not by pandering, but by delivering.

 

 

 

 

An idea so crazy it just might work.
