MEXICAN DRUG CARTELS BY SEA, AND OVER AND UNDER OUR OPEN & UNDEFENDED BORDERS

ACCORDING TO CALIFORNIA ATTORNEY GENERAL KAMALA HARRIS, NEARLY HALF OF ALL MURDERS IN MEXIFORNIA ARE BY MEXICAN GANGS!

Did White House Push FBI To Kill Anti-Gang Unit?
March 08, 2012 
While it blows hundreds of millions of dollars on wasteful “stimulus” projects and the expansion of costly entitlement benefits, the Obama Administration is eliminating a crucial FBI division that counters gang violence.
This could not have come at a worse time considering gang violence in the United States is at an all-time high. In fact, the latest annual gang threat assessment issued by the agency—National Gang Intelligence Center (NGIC)—on the chopping block is downright alarming. It says that gangs are responsible for nearly half of all violent crimes in most parts of the country and up to 90% in many jurisdictions. That’s because there are over 33,000 active gangs in the U.S. with some 1.4 million members, according to the NGIC.

Nephew of Mexican cartel's ex-boss pleads guilty

BROWNSVILLE, Texas (AP) — The nephew of the former boss of Mexico's Gulf cartel crossed illegally into Texas to hide from a rival and spent five months running his drug operation from the U.S. before he was caught, a federal prosecutor said Monday.
Rafael Cardenas Vela pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to possess and distribute cocaine and marijuana in exchange for the government dropping money laundering and immigration charges.
The 38-year-old mountain of a man with a middle school education and 500 armed men at his beck and call had grabbed control of the cartel's operations in Matamoros, across the Rio Grande from Brownsville, in early 2011 after a steady rise under the tutelage of two powerful uncles. But the Gulf cartel had been in turmoil since Mexican marines killed one of those uncles, Antonio Ezequiel Cardenas Guillen, also known as "Tony Tormenta," in November 2010. Like others who ran afoul of rivals, Cardenas Vela sought refuge in the United States.
Last summer, U.S. authorities began hearing that Cardenas Vela was in the U.S. Through daily emails with subordinates he continued to manage the drug transportation and distribution cells that moved cocaine and marijuana across the border, north to Houston and on to cities deeper in the interior, Assistant U.S. attorney Jody Young said. He made more than $5 million in drug proceeds, the flow of which he also oversaw, ensuring some money went into the pockets of Mexican law enforcement officers as bribes.
On Monday, U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen explained that the refuge Cardenas Vela sought would cost him at least 10 years and as much as life in prison. With his plea, prosecutors agreed to recommend that his punishment come at the lower end of the scale. His uncle Osiel Cardenas Guillen, long-time head of the Gulf cartel, made his own deal after his extradition to the U.S. and was sentenced to 25 years in prison in 2010. Part of Cardenas Guillen's legal team flanked a shackled Cardenas Vela on Monday.
His attorneys declined to comment following the hearing.
Federal authorities had already been watching a ranch near the South Texas town of Rio Hondo when Port Isabel police officers pulled over a silver Ford F-150 pickup with temporary Texas tags for speeding just after 6:30 p.m. on Oct. 20.
Cardenas Vela, who was in the front passenger seat, presented a Mexican passport and visa in a false name. Once confronted with his true identity, he admitted to being involved in bringing marijuana and cocaine into the U.S. for several years, according to court records.
Two others who were in the truck with him also were arrested. They pleaded guilty to giving false statements and were sentenced to time served in February.
Beginning in 2000, Cardenas Vela spent several years as the plaza boss of San Fernando, a small city about an hour south of Matamoros that sits on an important smuggling corridor. In the drug trafficking world a plaza is a territory, usually centered on a city, where traffickers move their own drugs and also charge a "piso," or tax, on anyone else who wants to use the corridor. Two years ago, Cardenas Vela took over as plaza boss of Rio Bravo, a Mexican border city east of Reynosa that was a major staging ground for the cartel's drugs before they crossed the border.
Antonio Ezequiel Cardenas Guillen's death set off an internal power struggle pitting Cardenas Vela and his supporters against Jorge Eduardo Costilla, who had worked for Osiel Cardenas Guillen. In March 2011, Cardenas Vela took control of the Matamoros plaza, but by May he had crossed illegally into the U.S. seeking refuge from Costilla, Young said.
Young said prosecutors were preparing a forfeiture order to seize assets Cardenas Vela purchased with drug proceeds. A house on a quiet Brownsville cul-de-sac was allegedly one such property, though prosecutors did not say whether Cardenas Vela ever lived there.
Hanen scheduled Cardenas Vela's sentencing for June 18.

TWO THINGS MEXICANS DO WELL: DRUGS, AND LOOTING!

Ex-Mexican druglord's nephew pleads guilty in US

The nephew of a former Mexican drug cartel chief pleaded guilty Monday to a massive drug trafficking conspiracy that funneled drugs from Mexico to the United States.
Rafael Cardenas Vela, 38, admitted in US District Court in Brownsville, Texas to conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute over five kilograms (11 pounds) of cocaine and more than 1,000 kilograms (2,200 pounds) of marijuana.
His uncle Osiel Cardenas Guillen previously led the Gulf Cartel and was extradited in 2007 to the United States , where he is serving a 25-year sentence.
During his plea, Cardenas admitted he had been a principal leader of the Gulf Cartel headquartered in Tamaulipas, Mexico. He was a so-called plaza boss -- or regional chief -- for the cartel in several locations including San Fernando, Rio Bravo and Matamoros.
He headed the Rio Bravo Plaza -- in a key area along the Rio Grande River on the US-Mexico border that has been a common collection point for narcotics being smuggled into the United States -- until March 2011.
After the death of another uncle, Ezequiel Cardenas Guillen or "Tony Tormenta," Cardenas took over the cartel's operation sin the border city of Matamoros. He fled into the United States in May to escape the power struggles between and within drug cartels.
He was caught during a US undercover operation in October.
US Attorney Kenneth Magidson said the drug operator's conviction represents US efforts "weaken the cartels influence on drug trafficking and other related criminal activity within our district and along the Southwest border."
Cardenas faces between 10 years and life in prison, along with up to $10 million in fines and five years of supervised release. He has also agreed to a $5 million judgment and to have authorities forfeit his property in Texas.

OBAMA’S AMERICA: Open & Undefended Borders!



“What we're seeing is our Congress and national leadership dismantling our laws by not enforcing them. Lawlessness becomes the norm, just like Third World corruption. Illegal aliens now have more rights and privileges than Americans. If you are an illegal alien, you can drive a car without a driver's license or insurance. You may obtain medical care without paying. You may work without paying taxes. Your children enjoy free education at the expense of taxpaying Americans.”

Obama's 'Hispanicazation' of America

Monday, January 10, 2011 08:28 AM

By: James Walsh

Casting a shadow on economic recovery efforts in the United States is the cost of illegal immigration that consumes U.S. taxpayer dollars for education, healthcare, social welfare benefits, and criminal justice. Illegal aliens (or more politically correct, “undocumented immigrants”) with ties to Mexican drug cartels are contributing to death and destruction on U.S. lands along the southern border.

While the declining job market in the United States may be discouraging some would-be border crossers, a flow of illegal aliens continues unabated, with many entering the United States as drug-smuggling “mules.”

Increasingly vicious foot soldiers of the Mexican drug cartels are taking control of U.S. lands along the border, especially since U.S. Border Patrol units have been reassigned, some to offices 60 to 80 miles inland.

The U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) early last year posted signs warning citizens to avoid Interstate 8 between Casa Grande and Gila Bend, Ariz., because of criminal activity in the area, an area that includes protected natural areas precious to the nation.

In reaction to public outrage over the signs, the BLM removed the offensive wording in October 2010, replacing it with the following: Visitor Information Update—Active Federal Law Enforcement Patrol Area.

As the liberal news media, far-left Democrats, and labor unions push for the “Hispanicazation” of U.S. culture, U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano says the U.S. border has never been more secure.

Perhaps she is basing this on the reduced number of apprehensions, which result, of course, from reassigning Border Patrol agents inland.

In a recent New York Times article, Nicholas Kristof criticized U.S. citizens for not speaking a foreign language and suggested that “Every child in the United States should learn Spanish.” He concluded that as the United States increasingly integrates economically with Latin America, Spanish will be crucial for the United States.

For decades, the liberal left has argued that Latin America is essential for U.S. business and trade. Kristof states that Latin America “is finally getting its act together” but fails to mention the Obama administration’s $2 billion loan of U.S. taxpayer money in 2009 to Brazil’s Petrobras oil company for deep off-shore oil drilling. Obama confidant George Soros, through the Soros Fund Management LLC, until recently owned millions of dollars of Petrobras stock.

Kristof suggests that one day Spanish-speaking Americans will be part of daily life in the United States and that workmen such as mechanics will be able to communicate easily with Spanish-speaking customers.

He fails to explain why these customers will not be speaking English. After all, the ability to speak, read, and write English remains a requirement for U.S. citizenship.

President Barack Obama gives lip service to increasing border control resources with limited funding and personnel. Many officials, including the governors of Texas and Arizona, are skeptical regarding the Obama administration’s resolve. They resent that the United States is being blamed for the killing fields on both sides of the Mexico-U.S. Border.

For instance, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in March 2009, during her first official visit to Mexico, placed the blame for the Mexican drug cartels’ vicious murders on the United States.

In Mexico City, she announced that the U.S. appetite for illegal drugs and the easy acquisition of guns from the United States by Mexicans are the root causes of the Mexican crime wave. “Blame America” has become the global agenda of the Democratic Party.

The Obama administration’s plan to resolve the immigration chaos is to offer amnesty to all comers. President Obama re-affirms his support of a “pathway to citizenship” (amnesty) for illegal aliens in 2011.

The administration, however, has announced no plans to control the influx of future waves of illegal aliens or their skyrocketing costs to the nation. The administration, which condones U.S. sanctuary cities and states, has no plans to file charges against them for violations of federal immigration law. Nor does the administration seem concerned about the environmental impact that illegal aliens have on the ecology of the United States.

Many national forests, parks, monuments, wilderness areas, and wildlife refuges — once the pride of the nation — are serving today as marijuana fields for illegal alien gangs.

Former Democratic Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi reportedly said to a gathering of illegal aliens in California in 2009 that U.S. immigration laws were “un-American,” suggesting that they need not be obeyed. Concerned citizens can only trust that the new speaker of the House, John Boehner, as part of congressional oversight of federal agencies, will demand enforcement of existing immigration laws.

When will President Obama recognize that illegal immigration is slowing economic recovery? Can he resolve the chaos while still appeasing his Hispanic base?

To maintain his populist aura, the president is in the habit of saying one thing to one audience and the opposite to another.

One Obama apologist explained, “Campaign rhetoric is one thing,” suggesting that governing is another. The deliberate Hispanicazation of the United States to secure a block of votes is quite another.

Obama hails jobs report despite nearly 13 million unemployed


By Patrick Martin
10 March 2012

The Obama administration hailed the February jobs report, released by the Labor Department’s Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Friday morning, although the 227,000 net new jobs made only a slight dent in the army of nearly 13 million unemployed in America, including 5.5 million unemployed for more than six months.

At this rate of net job creation, and with 125,000 people entering the job market each month, it would require 130 months—nearly 11 years—to put all those currently unemployed back to work. That is without taking into account future economic shocks from the US and world financial system.

A more detailed breakdown of the jobs report suggests the flimsy character of the supposed economic recovery. More than one third of the increase came in two categories—temporary jobs (45,000) and food service and bars (41,000)—which are typically low-paid. There was an increase of 61,000 jobs in health care and social assistance, a category that includes many low-paid jobs in nursing homes and hospitals. While manufacturing created 31,000 new jobs, construction actually showed a decline of 13,000.

Despite the rise in the number of jobs, the jobless rate was unchanged at 8.3 percent because of a surge of new workers into the labor force. A separate Labor Department survey of households found the number of people employed rose by 428,000 in February, but the number of unemployed also increased, by 48,000, because the total labor force jumped by 476,000.

The figures reported by the BLS were slightly better than economists forecasted during the week. Private-sector jobs rose by 233,000, while public-sector employers cut 6,000 workers. The BLS also revised upward its December and January figures, from 203,000 to 233,000 and from 243,000 to 284,000, respectively.

The combined total of 744,000 jobs was the largest for any three-month period since 2006, an indication of the anemic character of the “recovery.” By comparison, during the worst of the financial crisis that followed the September 2008 Wall Street crash, American corporations were destroying more than 744,000 jobs every month.

Most economic forecasters adopted a cautious attitude to the figures reported over the last few months, partly because the numbers themselves are suspect, and partly because, even if valid, they are expected to mark the high point of job creation for 2012.

The weekly figures on new unemployment claims have actually risen for the past three weeks and remain above 350,000, a level that indicates a labor market in considerable crisis. The number of job cuts tallied by the global outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas was down slightly from January to February, from 53,486 to 51,728, but it was 2 percent higher than in February 2011.

A report issued by the investment bank Goldman Sachs this week suggested that the method of seasonally adjusting the jobless figures was skewing the results, because any comparison to the disastrous winter of 2008-2009 will inevitably make the current period look better than it is.

Andrew Tilton, an economist for the bank, told Reuters, “We think that the improvement over the last few months dramatically overstates the underlying improvement. You will not see that rate of improvement going forward.” The bank now expects the jobless rate to stay virtually unchanged for the rest of the year, ending 2012 at 8.2 percent.

Other economists, including Ben Bernanke, chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, have noted that the rate of gross domestic product (GDP) growth in the United States, just under 3 percent, cannot account for a sharp drop in the unemployment rate from 9 percent last fall to 8.3 percent today. The economic commentator for the New York Times, David Leonhardt, wrote Friday, “Based solely on the gross domestic product numbers, the obvious conclusion is that job growth will slow in coming months.”

The US private-sector job total in 2012 remains at or below the level of 2000, a fact that demonstrates the failure of American capitalism over a protracted period and under both Republican and Democratic presidents. The BLS report found that a staggering 23.5 million people were either unemployed or underemployed—working part-time when they wanted full-time work.

Nonetheless, the White House celebrated the job figures as a boost to Obama’s reelection campaign, and the president visited a new Rolls-Royce engine plant in Petersburg, Virginia to trumpet the supposed economic progress.

Obama has made the revival of American manufacturing a central component of his political campaigning, while disguising the fact that this revival is based on slashing the cost of labor to American corporations through wage-cutting and the destruction of benefits, as well as cutting back on the enforcement of health and safety standards and environmental regulations.

In his remarks in Petersburg, as in every recent speech on the economy, Obama hailed the bailout of the auto industry as a great success. He did not mention that the wages for new-hires at auto plants have been slashed by 50 percent, a standard that is now spreading throughout American manufacturing, to make US companies more “competitive” with their rivals in Europe and Asia.

These measures have had an impact on the entire American working class. According to the BLS report Friday, average hourly earnings rose only three cents in February, to $23.31 an hour, and were up only 1.9 percent from a year ago, far below the rate of inflation. The increase in the average worker’s annual income would not even pay for the increased cost of gas to commute the typical distance to a job.

For younger workers, the position is far worse. A report from the Economic Policy Institute released earlier this week found that the wages paid to entry-level workers fell across-the-board from 2000 to 2011, regardless of the education or skill level of the workers involved.

Entry-level wages for male workers fell from $12.82 an hour to $11.68 an hour, in 2011 dollars, while entry-level wages for female workers fell from $10.93 an hour to $9.92 an hour over the same period.
