TEXAS ATTEMPTS TO PUSH BACK THE NARCOMEX, LA RAZA, BARACK OBAMA INVASION, OCCUPATION AND LOOTING - But is it too late?

Lawsuits, Big Border Dollars Top 2015 Immigration Headlines

http://www.texastribune.org/2015/12/18/lawsuits-big-dollars-border-and-inaction-austin-to/?utm_
If non-Texans were still unsure how much the state's Republican lawmakers oppose President Obama's immigration and border security policies, 2015 likely cleared that up. GOP leaders here took a hard-line approach this year on everything from federal immigration proposals to beefing up law enforcement on the border.

1. Texas vs. the Obama administration’s deferred action initiative

The hopes of millions of undocumented immigrants were abruptly dashed in February when the state of Texas prevailed in a federal lawsuit that halted President Obama's Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents, or DAPA. The plan, announced in November 2014, would have provided about 5 million undocumented immigrants the chance to apply for relief from deportation proceedings and a work permit. It was scheduled to go into effect in February, but was derailed by U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen of Brownsville after Greg Abbott, in his former role as attorney general, filed suit to stop it.

Hanen ruled that Obama didn’t comply with the Administrative Procedure Act, which governs how federal regulations are made. A Nov. 9 ruling by the U.S. 5th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld Hanen's decision. The case is pending before the U.S. Supreme Court.


2. The cost of securing the border
The surge of Central American immigrants entering Texas illegally in 2014 created an appetite for more law enforcement on the border. The Texas Legislature fed it in 2015 with an $800 million earmark to bolster the ranks of the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) in the region.
The record-setting appropriation gives DPS the authority to fast-track the hiring of certain military veterans who have been honorably discharged, increases penalties for human smuggling and creates a transnational intelligence center on the border to analyze crime data.

The effort was opposed by Texas Democrats who argued the appropriation was an overreaction to the influx of immigrants, mostly women and children who turned themselves in to law enforcement after fleeing violence and poverty in their home countries.

3. Different session, but same immigration outcomes at the Capitol

Although Abbott was able to forestall a national immigration program, a bill repealing in-state tuition for undocumented immigrants never made it to his desk. The Legislature also failed to enact a measure to punish “sanctuary cities” — the common term for cities or other governmental entities that don’t let local cops enforce federal immigration laws.

The measures were never considered a go in the more moderate Texas House. But pre-session predictions that they would sail out of the Texas Senate also fell short after two Republican senators made it clear they would not vote with the rest of their party to bring the measures to the upper chamber’s floor.

4. A fight over birth certificates

In May, attorneys representing a group of undocumented immigrant parents sued the Texas Department of State Health Services after county registrars, upon orders of the agency, refused to issue the families birth certificates for their U.S. citizen children. They claim the practice violates the children’s 14th Amendment rights under the Constitution.
The parents alleged the agency ordered the counties to stop accepting Mexican consular IDs and Central American passports as proof of the parents’ identity without notifying the public of the policy change. The agency said the practice has been in place since 2008, and DSHS realized some counties weren’t following the rules only after recent audits.

In October, U.S. District Judge Robert Pitman declined to grant the parents emergency relief while the court case plays out, though he said he has serious concerns about the agency’s refusal to issue the vital document. Pitman instead said both sides needed to go through the full hearing process, which is still pending in his court.

5. Fast-tracking licenses for immigration detention centers isn't an "emergency"

In September, Grassroots Leadership, a non-profit immigrant rights group opposed to for-profit prisons, filed a lawsuit against the Texas Heath and Human Services Commission and the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services after the agencies posted an emergency rule in order to license two privately-run detention centers as state residential centers. The centers house up to 2,000 undocumented immigrant women and children that have crossed illegally into Texas through the Rio Grande Valley.

The state was moving quickly in order to comply with a July order by California-based United States District Judge Dolly Gee, who ruled the government was holding the immigrants in “deplorable” conditions.

In November, State District Judge Karin Crump of Travis County ruled there was no "emergency" that required that the state's licenses be fast-tracked. Though the centers can still obtain the licenses through normal procedures, immigrants rights groups hailed Crump’s decision as a victory because it required the state to hold public hearings and let opponents of detention voice their concerns. It’s unclear when a final decision on the licenses will be made.

Obama’s Secret Destruction of Our Immigration System

 By Arnold Ahlert

 Canada Free Press, November 4, 2015

A newly-leaked memo from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reveals the Obama administration is seeking to sidestep a federal court injunction that suspended portions of the president’s amnesty-based initiatives known as Deferred Action for Parents of Americans (DAPA) and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). In short, Obama is determined to impose his transformational agenda on the nation by any means necessary.

According to the Hill, the document outlining the administration’s attempt to thumb its nose at the rule of law was prepared at a DHS “Regulations Retreat” last June, four months after a preliminary injunction was initially imposed by Texas Judge Andrew Hanen and subsequently left in place by a three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. The Fifth Circuit’s final ruling on that injunction, either confirming or reversing it, is expected to occur in a matter of days.Apparently the Obama administration couldn’t care less.

TO KEEP WAGES DEPRESSED AND BUILD THEIR LA RAZA "The Race" MEXICAN ILLEGAL PARTY BASE, THE DEMOCRAT PARTY HAS RUTHLESSLY ASSAULTED THE AMERICAN WORKER, OUR LAWS ON HIRING ILLEGALS AND OUR BORDERS TO KEEP WAGES DEPRESSED.

"The U.S. now ranks at, or near, the top of developed countries for income inequality. Job creation has lagged far behind population growth. Automation has erased some jobs, but corrupt, inept government leadership is responsible for the deplorable job- deficit-low wage situation." 

"The federal government encourages the massive illegal and legal immigration that plays a huge role in job scarcity and income suppression for American workers. To paraphrase Milton Friedman, a viable economy cannot exist with open borders and unrestricted immigration. An oversupply of workers willing to work for less pay, the outsourcing of jobs, and visa-immigrant hiring allow companies to replace American workers with immigrants for reduced labor and benefit costs."



Income inequality has risen during the last several decades to heights last seen in the 1920s. Most of the income growth has gone to a small fraction of the population, the ultra-rich elites, while real wages for the bottom 90 percent ...

IN, OVER, UNDER AND BY SEA COME THE MEXICAN DRUG CARTELS. THEY NOW SELL HEROIN IN EVERY AMERICAN CITY IN AMERICA'S OPEN AND UNDEFENDED BORDERS.... AND WE SHOULD BE WORRIED ABOUT ISIS???

WHICH BEHEADS MORE? LA RAZA DRUG CARTELS OR ISIS???
 
“The Zetas will kill just for the pure pleasure of seeing someone suffer,” Grayson said. “And they will do horrible things before the coup de grace.”



Therefore the Visa Waiver Program should have been terminated after the terror attacks of 9/11 yet it has continually been expanded.

It is clear that the overarching goal of a succession of administrations and many members of Congress, irrespective of political party affiliation, is to keep our borders open and take no meaningful action to stop that flow of aliens into the United States.

THE "AMERICAN DREAM" FOR LA RAZA "The Race" MEXICAN INVADERS IS TO HOP THE BORDERS, WELFARE GRAVEL TRAIN AND THEN SUPPORT THE MEXICAN CRIME TIDAL WAVE IN AMERICA'S OPEN AND UNDEFENDED BORDERS.

DO YOU REALLY WANT TO GIVE THESE MEX FLAG WAVERS AMNESTY?

 FUCK THE STUPID GRINGO!

Case Study of El Paso Attorney Laundering Money for the Cartel

 Case 2: El Paso attorney launders money for the Cartel
.
The scheme: An El Paso attorney conspired with multiple Mexican nationals, including the ex-wife of a former Mexican President, to launder approximately $600 million in drug proceeds for the Millennial/Valencia Cartel. The attorney, who was a philanthropist and former Carnegie Mellon Trustee, utilized his legal experience to generate false legal settlements for millions of dollars and created Limited Liability Companies (LLCs) in Nevada to launder the proceeds. The attorney also utilized lawyers in the Turks and Caicos Islands to aid him in creating additional false international LLCs and bank accounts to launder the drug proceeds. The attorney and willing associates furthered the conspiracy by hiring an independent cell of Mexican Nationals to exchange the bulk U.S. cash smuggled into Mexico for Pesos via Casa De Cambios.

Prominent Texas lawyer allegedly double-crossed U.S. drug agents, now faces trial for aiding a Mexican cartel

Marco Antonio Delgado, well-known lawyer with political ties, duped federal drug agents, U.S. says


NEW YORK DAILY NEWS

Juan Carlos Llorca/AP

Prominent Texas lawyer Marco Antonio Delgado sits outside the El Paso County Jail in November on his way to a federal court hearing on money laundry charges involving a Mexican drug cartel.

 

He seemed to do everything extremely well, until he allegedly made a colossal mistake — double-crossing U.S. drug agents while working as a confidential informant.

Far from pleased, the feds threw the book at him in two indictments handed down in the past few months.

Marco Antonio Delgado, a U.S. citizen with impressive credentials, is accused of conspiring to launder more than half a billion dollars for a Mexican drug cartel. In a separate indictment, the international energy lawyer is accused of transferring $32 million in client funds to his personal overseas account.

His drug trial was scheduled to begin last month, but at the last minute, his attorneys sought a delay, saying their client needed a psychiatric evaluation.
Delgado, 46, is now being tested by mental health experts in El Paso, where he has been incarcerated since his November arrest.

Now scheduled to begin July 3, his drug trial is one of the most high-profile Mexican cartel cases ever filed against an American citizen.

“It’s a unique case,” Ken Rijock, a former Miami banking lawyer who spent 10 years laundering and smuggling cash for Colombian drug lords, told the Daily News.

“It exposes the dirty little underside of law enforcement,” said Rijock, who served a federal prison sentence in the 1990s and later wrote a book about his criminal past titled “The Laundry Man.”

“How could (federal drug agents) not be embarrassed that their informant is also laundering money?” Rijock said.

“They really dropped the ball here. Not only was this guy charged with money laundering for one of the cartels, he’s also charged with funneling a client’s funds into an offshore banking account,” he said.

Delgado’s attorneys declined comment to The News. The U.S. Attorney’s office, which is prosecuting Delgado, does not comment on pending trials.

Delgado, a Mexican immigrant who entered the U.S. at age 16 with his family, immediately began living the American dream.

The campus of Carnegie Mellon Universtiy in Pittsburgh, Penn., where Marco Antonio Delgado was a trustee until last summer.


From the outset, he was smart and determined — he graduated from Austin High School in Texas at the top of his class, earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of Texas at El Paso in 1989, followed that with graduate school at Carnegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania, then went to law school at Texas Tech.
Along the way, he became a naturalized U.S. citizen.
As a successful international trade attorney in El Paso, he also rose through the genteel ranks of philanthropy and academia. He was an El Paso Symphony donor and a trustee of Carnegie Mellon who donated $250,000 to the prestigious university to establish a scholarship in his name for promising Hispanic students.
He married in 1986 and fathered four children. The couple divorced in 2006. He was living with a common-law wife and her three children when he was arrested, according to local reports.
Somewhere along the way, if federal authorities are correct, he started working with a Mexican drug cartel, laundering their illicit cash and trying to slow down the extraditions of organized crime members from Mexico to the U.S.
It’s not clear when Delgado allegedly started dealing with the Milenio, or Los Valencias, cartel, which has mostly disbanded and has been absorbed by the ultra-violent Los Zetas Cartel, one the most powerful organized crime syndicates operating in Mexico.
Agents from U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement apparently recruited Delgado around 2007 as a confidential informant after they seized more than $1 million in cash related to drug trafficking and Delgado, according to court documents.
But while he was cooperating with U.S. drug agents, Delgado was also moving enormous amounts of cash behind ICE’s back, according to court testimony.
He was arrested in November at a posh restaurant in El Paso by Homeland Security Investigations agents. Two months before, he had been indicted by a federal grand jury in El Paso for conspiracy to commit money laundering from 2005 to 2008. The charge carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison.
Delgado pleaded not guilty. His legal clients have included the U.S. and European countries in negotiating with Pemex, Mexico’s state-controlled gas and oil giant.
He has been denied bail.

BLOG: CURRENT NARCOMEX PRESIDENT ENRIQUE PENA NIETO'S PARTY HAS LONG HAD TIES TO THE LA RAZA DRUG CARTELS.

The well-known Texas lawyer once worked for the late Ann Richards, a former Texas governor. He left his Carnegie Mellon post last summer, when he said he was becoming an adviser to Mexican presidential candidate Enrique Pena Nieto, who later won election and took office in December.

Nieto’s office has denied Delgado worked for the candidate, according to published reports.

While in U.S. custody, a second federal indictment was handed down in February. The 17-count filing accuses Delgado of wire fraud and money laundering in 2010.

The charges allege he diverted $32 million from a Nevada business under contract with a Mexican utility in Sonora state and had the money deposited to an account he controlled in the Turks and Caicos islands.

Those charges also carry a maximum sentence of 20 years upon conviction.

Delgado has also pleaded not guilty in that case.
He has refused plea deal offers, federal prosecutors have said in court.

On May 15, just days before his drug trial was to begin, defense attorneys Ray Velarde and Richard Esper asked for a continuance so their client could be evaluated by psychiatrists.

“I’ve had extensive time with Mr. Delgado, and it’s not enough,” Velarde told U.S. District Judge David Briones, according to the El Paso Times.
The continuance request, which was filed under seal, was granted.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Juanita Fielden did not object. “I don’t know if this defendant comprehends how serious the charges are against him,” she told the court.

Texas lawyer Marco Antonio Delgado, a well-known philanthropist and a former trustee of Carnegie Mellon University is transferred to a federal court hearing in November to face charges he conspired to launder more than $600 million for a Mexican drug cartel.


But it’s unlikely Delgado misses the point, drug cartel experts said.

Offering information about the Zetas in exchange for a lesser sentence would be the same as signing his death warrant, they said.

“He can’t testify, they’ll kill him,” Rijock said. “Money launderers don’t plead guilty if they’re connected to any of the cartels” because its members can get to someone no matter where they are, including in prison, Rijock said.

In Texas last week, drug cartel lawyer Juan Guerrero Chapa, 43, was gunned down in broad daylight.

Two of his drug cartel clients had recently been sentenced to stiff federal prison terms in Texas, according to local reports.

And Chapa, according to a local television station, was also feeding information about his clients to U.S. drug agents.

George W. Grayson, a senior fellow at the Foreign Police Research Institute and a professor at Virginia’s College of William and Mary, said it’s not surprising the feds went after their own informant, or that Delgado has thus far rejected a plea deal.

“Spies who have worked both sides of the street are usually charged with everything in the book,” Grayson told The News.

“You’ve been double-crossed and betrayed.”
As for the Zetas, who now control what’s left of the Milenio Cartel, there is no percentage in talking about them to authorities.

“The Zetas will kill just for the pure pleasure of seeing someone suffer,” Grayson said. “And they will do horrible things before the coup de grace.”

Placating Americans with Fake Immigration Law Enforcement

 How our leaders create fantasy 'solutions' for our immigration-related vulnerabilities.

 By Michael Cutler

 FrontPageMag.com, December 4, 2015


Therefore the Visa Waiver Program should have been terminated after the terror attacks of 9/11 yet it has continually been expanded.

http://mexicanoccupation.blogspot.com/2015/12/amnesty-hoax-to-keep-wages-depressed.html


It is clear that the overarching goal of a succession of administrations and many members of Congress, irrespective of political party affiliation, is to keep our borders open and take no meaningful action to stop that flow of aliens into the United States.
. . .
The obvious question is why the Visa Waiver Program is considered so sacrosanct that even though it defies the advice and findings of the 9/11 Commission no one has the moral fortitude to call for simply terminating this dangerous program.

The answer can be found in the incestuous relationship between the Chamber of Commerce and its subsidiary, the Corporation for Travel Promotion, now doing business as Brand USA.

The Chamber of Commerce has arguably been the strongest supporter of the Visa Waiver Program, which currently enables aliens from 38 countries to enter the United States without first obtaining a visa.

The U.S. State Department provides a thorough explanation of the Visa Waiver Program on its website.

Incredibly, the official State Department website also provides a link, “Discover America,” on that website which relates to the website of The Corporation for Travel Promotion, which is affiliated with the travel industries that are a part of the “Discover America Partnership.”
