An additional 912 illegal aliens were arrested for multiple "significant misdemeanors," mostly repeated convictions for driving under the influence.

  


 

 

From day one, Obama has sabotaged HOMELAND SECURITY, our borders, laws against hiring illegals, E-VERIFY and loaded his administration with LA RAZA SUPREMACIST. Both of his Sec. of Labor, Solis and Perez are LA RAZA SUPREMACIST. ALL of Obama’s Sec. of Homeland Security have been advocates for OPEN BORDERS and have sabotaged HOMELAND SECURITY.

 
BARACK OBAMA’S LA RAZA “The Race” CRIME TIDAL WAVE… How much does this Cretan hate America?

IS HILLARY CLINTON A CLOSET REPUBLICAN? Team Clinton says Hillary will outdo Obama with GOP's help

Team Clinton says Hillary will outdo Obama with GOP's help


“At this point, Clinton is the choice of most multimillionaires to be the next occupant of the White House. A recent CNBC poll of 750 millionaires found 53 percent support for Clinton in a contest with Republican Jeb Bush, 14 points better than Obama’s showing in the 2012 election with the same group.”

DICK MORRIS:

The shady, shabby and sordid political lives of Hillary and Billary – America’s premiere white-collar criminals.


HILLARY CLINTON: DEDICATED SERVANT TO THE 1%, OBAMA’S CRIMINAL CRONY BANKSTERS and DISCIPLE of OBAMA-CLINTONOMICS for the super-rich.

The central aim of Clinton’s speech was to reassure the American financial oligarchy that, despite her occasional lukewarm denunciations of corporate criminality and social inequality, she is a right-wing, pro-business defender of Wall Street.



The speech makes clear that a Clinton presidency will pursue the same pro-Wall Street policies of the Obama administration, seeking to expand the fortunes of the super-rich at the expense of the great majority of society, while invoking “fairness” and “equality” as window dressing.
 

THE ULTIMATE LOOTING of AMERICA BY BIG BANKSTERS STARTED UNDER BILLARY CLINTON. THEY’VE PULLED IN HUGE BRIBES FROM BANKSTERS SINCE THEN.



“President Bill Clinton repealed the law in 1999. Glass-Steagall has long been popular with liberals, who argue the repeal was part of the deregulation they say led to the 2008 financial collapse.”
 

THE CRONY CLASS:

OBAMA-CLINTONomics  was created by BILLARY CLINTON!

Income inequality grows FOUR TIMES FASTER under Obama than Bush.


 “By the time of Bill Clinton’s election in 1992, the Democratic Party had completely repudiated its association with the reforms of the New Deal and Great Society periods. Clinton gutted welfare programs to provide an ample supply of cheap labor for the rich (WHICH NOW MEANS OPEN BORDERS AND NO E-VERIFY!), including a growing layer of black capitalists, and passed the 1994 Federal Crime Bill, with its notorious “three strikes” provision that has helped create the largest prison population in the world.”

*

“Calling income and wealth inequality the "great moral issue of our time," Sanders laid out a sweeping, almost unimaginably expensive program to transfer wealth from the richest Americans to the poor and middle class. A $1 trillion public works program to create "13 million good-paying jobs." A $15-an-hour federal minimum wage. "Pay equity" for women. Paid sick leave and vacation for everyone. Higher taxes on the wealthy. Free tuition at all public colleges and universities. A Medicare-for-all single-payer health care system. Expanded Social Security benefits. Universal pre-K.” WASHINGTON EXAMINER



"During the month, some 432,000 people in the US gave up looking for a job." EVEN AS JEB BUSH, HILLARY CLINTON and BERNIE SANDERS PREACH AMNESTY! AMNESTY! AMNESTY!

"The American phenomenon of record stock values fueling an ever greater concentration of wealth at the very top of society, while the economy is starved of productive investment, the social infrastructure crumbles, and working class living standards are driven down by entrenched unemployment, wage-cutting and government austerity policies, is part of a broader global process."


HILLARY CLINTON'S BIGGEST DONORS ARE OBAMA'S CRIMINAL CRONY

BANKSTERS!

"A defining expression of this crisis is the dominance of financial speculation and parasitism, to the point where a narrow international financial aristocracy plunders society’s resources in order to further enrich itself."

Federal Reserve documents stagnant state of US economy

Federal Reserve documents stagnant state of US economy

By Barry Grey
21 July 2015
The US Federal Reserve Board last week released its semiannual Monetary Policy Report to Congress, providing an assessment of the state of the American economy and outlining the central bank’s monetary policy going forward. The report, along with Fed Chair Janet Yellen’s testimony before both the House of Representatives and the Senate, as well as a speech by Yellen the previous week in Cleveland, present a grim picture of the reality behind the official talk of economic “recovery.”
In her prepared remarks to Congress last Wednesday and Thursday, Yellen said, “Looking forward, prospects are favorable for further improvement in the US labor market and the economy more broadly.”

She reiterated her assurances that while the Fed would likely begin to raise its benchmark federal funds interest rate later this year from the 0.0 to 0.25 percent level it has maintained since shortly after the 2008 financial crash, it would do so only slowly and gradually, keeping short-term rates well below historically normal levels for an indefinite period.

This was an expected, but nevertheless welcome, signal to the American financial elite, which has enjoyed a spectacular rise in corporate profits, stock values and personal wealth since 2009 thanks to the flood of virtually free money provided by the Fed.

"But as Yellen’s remarks and the Fed report indicate, the explosion of asset values and wealth accumulation at the very top of the economic ladder has occurred alongside an intractable and continuing slump in the real economy."

In her prepared testimony to the House Financial Services Committee and the Senate Banking Committee, Yellen noted the following features of the performance of the US economy over the first six months of 2015:

* A sharp decline in the rate of economic growth as compared to 2014, including an actual contraction in the first quarter of the year.

* A substantial slackening (19 percent) in average monthly job-creation, from 260,000 last year to 210,000 thus far in 2015.

* Declines in domestic spending and industrial production.
In her July 10 speech to the City Club of Cleveland, Yellen cited an even longer list of negative indices, including:

* Growth in real gross domestic product (GDP) since the official beginning of the recovery in June, 2009 has averaged a mere 2.25 percent per year, a full one percentage point less than the average rate over the 25 years preceding what Yellen called the “Great Recession.”
* While manufacturing employment nationwide has increased by about 850,000 since the end of 2009, there are still almost 1.5 million fewer manufacturing jobs than just before the recession.

* Real GDP and industrial production both declined in the first quarter of this year. Industrial production continued to fall in April and May.

* Residential construction (despite extremely low mortgage rates by historical standards) has remained “quote soft.”

* Productivity growth has been “weak,” largely because “Business owners and managers… have not substantially increased their capital expenditures,” and “Businesses are holding large amounts of cash on their balance sheets.”

* Reflecting the general stagnation and even slump in the real economy, core inflation rose by only 1.2 percent over the past 12 months.

The Monetary Policy Report issued by the Fed includes facts that are, if anything, even more alarming, including:

* “Labor productivity in the business sector is reported to have declined in both the fourth quarter of 2014 and the first quarter of 2015.”
* “Exports fell markedly in the first quarter, held back by lackluster growth abroad.”

* “Overall construction activity remains well below its pre-recession levels.”

* “Since the recession began, the gains in… nominal compensation [workers’ wages and benefits] have fallen well short of their pre-recession averages, and growth of real compensation has fallen short of productivity growth over much of this period.”

* “Overall business investment has turned down as investment in the energy sector has plunged. Business investment fell at an annual rate of 2 percent in first quarter… Business outlays for structures outside of the energy sector also declined in the first quarter…”

The report incorporates the Fed’s projections for US economic growth, published following the June meeting of the central bank’s policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee. They include a downward revision of the projection for 2015 to 1.8 percent-2.0 percent from the March projection of 2.3 percent to 2.7 percent.

That the US economy continues to stagnate and even contract is indicated by two surveys released last week while Yellen was testifying before Congress. The Fed reported that factory production failed to increase in June for the second straight month and output in the auto sector fell 3.7 percent. The Commerce Department reported that retail sales unexpectedly fell in June, declining by 0.3 percent.
These statistics follow the employment report for June, which showed that the share of the US working-age population either employed or actively looking for work, known as the labor force participation rate, fell to 62.6 percent, its lowest level in 38 years. During the month, some 432,000 people in the US gave up looking for a job.

The disastrous figures on business investment are perhaps the most telling indicators of the underlying crisis of the capitalist system. The Fed report attributes the sharp decline so far this year primarily to the dramatic fall in oil prices and resulting contraction in investment and construction in the energy sector. But the plunge in oil prices is itself a symptom of a general slowdown in the world economy.
Moreover, a dramatic decline in productive investment is common to all of the major industrialized economies of Europe and North America. In its World Economic Outlook of last April, the International Monetary Fund for the first time since the 2008 financial crisis acknowledged that there was no prospect for an early return to pre-recession levels of economic growth, linking this bleak prognosis to a general and pronounced decline in productive investment.

The American phenomenon of record stock values fueling an ever greater concentration of wealth at the very top of society, while the economy is starved of productive investment, the social infrastructure crumbles, and working class living standards are driven down by entrenched unemployment, wage-cutting and government austerity policies, is part of a broader global process.
The economic crisis in the US and internationally is not simply a conjunctural downturn. It is a systemic crisis of global capitalism, centered in the US. A defining expression of this crisis is the dominance of financial speculation and parasitism, to the point where a narrow international financial aristocracy plunders society’s resources in order to further enrich itself.

While the economy is starved of productive investment, entirely parasitic and socially destructive activities such as stock buybacks, dividend hikes and mergers and acquisitions return to pre-crash levels and head for new heights. US corporations have spent more on stock buybacks so far this year than on factories and equipment.
The intractable nature of this crisis, within the framework of capitalism, is underscored by the IMF’s updated World Economic Outlook, released earlier this month, which projects that 2015 will be the worst year for economic growth since the height of the recession in 2009.
 

CALIFORNIA: A LA RAZA-OCCUPIED COLONY of MEXICO - MORE THAN 2,000 CALIFORNAINS (Legals) MURDERED BY MEXICANS


A chilling alleged murder has thrown a major new wrinkle into an already complicated debate


  • Jul. 20, 2015, 7:02 AM

REUTERS/Lucy NicholsonProtesters outside the Luxe Hotel, before Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump was expected to speak in Brentwood, Los Angeles, on July 10. At least 10 businesses severed deals with Trump after his disparaging comments about immigrants from Mexico.

When Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez stood in front of a San Francisco court earlier this year, he wasn't a possibly unstable, violent individual.

He was an immigrant facing decades-old drug charges who had been convicted of several low-level drug crimes over the past several decades. He had spent years in and out of federal prison.

Lopez-Sanchez languished in federal prison for more than a year after his sentence ended. In March, he was turned over to the San Francisco sheriff's department by the Bureau of Prisons after the agency discovered a 20-year-old warrant for marijuana charges in San Francisco, according to the American Civil Liberties Union.

The Los Angeles Times reported that prosecutors in San Francisco found the charges were too old to pursue, so Lopez-Sanchez was released in San Francisco.

A few months later, authorities say, he shot 32-year-old Kathryn Steinle, who was walking with her father in a popular tourist spot in San Francisco.

Lopez-Sanchez is an immigrant without legal permission to live in the US, and in the eyes of staunch immigration-enforcement advocates, Steinle's death is exactly the problem with the many left-leaning cities that have attempted to craft their own immigration-enforcement policies in the wake of congressional inaction.

San Francisco, along with other cities including New York and Los Angeles, is considered a "sanctuary city." It does not obey requests from ICE to indefinitely hold inmates beyond their detention date.

Along with refusing ICE detention requests, some sanctuary cities bar local police from asking for proof of citizenship and from arresting immigrants who lack documentation unless they are suspected of committing other criminal offenses. Some of these cities also allow such immigrants picked up for low-level crimes to avoid deportation by serving jail time or paying fines.

But Steinle's murder has put sanctuary cities in a more controversial spotlight. Donald Trump, who has made illegal immigration a central theme of his nascent Republican presidential campaign, has used Steinle's death as an example of why he says immigration laws need to be tightened. Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, a fellow GOP presidential candidate, introduced a bill last week that would bar sanctuary cities from receiving federal funding.

"Our nation now has whole cities and states who stand up and willingly defy federal immigration laws in order to protect illegal immigrants who have broken our nation's laws," Paul said. "This must end, and it must end now."


JUDICIAL WATCH: 165,000 MEX CRIMINALS ON THE LOOSE.

IT’S ALL PART OF OBAMA’S CATCH, RELEASE, LOOT AND VOTE DEM PROGRAM!


 
“Until lawmakers end the catch-and-release policies of the Obama administration,” said Jessica Vaughan of the Center for Immigration Studies, “any infrastructure improvements, new strategies, and better metrics are pointless.”
 

SANCTUARY  CITIES… But isn’t California a sanctuary state???

ILLEGALS ABOVE THE LAW AND LOOTING ACCORDINGLY!

“Sanctuary policies are especially harmful when they let criminal immigrants be released back to the street instead of removed to their home country, giving them the opportunity to continue preying on the community, creating needless new victims,” wrote Jessica Vaughan, director of policy studies at the Center for Immigration Studies, a Washington-based think tank. More than 200 cities and local jurisdictions across the country have such policies, according to CIS.

 
MEXICO’S BIGGEST EXPORT NEXT TO DRUGS: criminals!


“Sanctuary policies are especially harmful when they let criminal immigrants be released back to the street instead of removed to their home country, giving them the opportunity to continue preying on the community, creating needless new victims,” wrote Jessica Vaughan, director of policy studies at the Center for Immigration Studies, a Washington-based think tank. More than 200 cities and local jurisdictions across the country have such policies, according to CIS.

But on Thursday, the Clinton campaign clarified her position: “Hillary Clinton believes that sanctuary cities can help further public safety, and she has defended those policies going back years,” said Xochitl Hinojosa, a campaign spokeswoman, in a statement.

ANOTHER MEXICAN MURDERER ON THE LOOSE.

 

The woman, 32-year-old Kathryn Steinle (“Kate”), was struck in the chest with a bullet while visiting Pier 14 on the Embarcadero with her family. She was rushed to a nearby hospital but doctors were unable to save her, as she died in her parents’ arms a few hours later.

 

The suspect, Francisco Sanchez, was identified as being in his mid-40s and on probation from Texas due to previous, undisclosed crimes. He was arrested after tips from passers-by. Officials said that the killing appeared to be random.

 
“For the past six years, the Obama Administration has invited and encouraged the wretched humanitarian crisis we now find on the Republic’s southern border. The president declared – in brazen violation of statutory and Constitutional law – that the government would no longer deport unaccompanied minor illegal immigrants. He also made clear that following this year’s midterm elections, he would take executive action to grant amnesty to millions of illegals.” THE TEA PARTY

US heroin deaths triple in four years

US heroin deaths triple in four years

By Gabriel Black
21 July 2015
Heroin use more than doubled in the United States between 2007 and 2013, according to a July 7 report by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In an even shorter time span, between 2010 and 2013, deaths from heroin overdose almost tripled.

Heroin, an opioid street drug, is extremely addictive and highly lethal. The CDC report states that in 2013 an estimated 517,000 people in the United States used heroin. That same year, 8,257 people died of overdoses involving the drug.

This epidemic, as it is now classified by the CDC, comes amid the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. It is no surprise that two sections of society most brutalized by the crisis, poor people and youth, are also the two sections that have the highest rates of heroin use and have seen the largest increase in usage rates.

For every 1,000 people aged 12 or older in the United States living in a household earning less than $20,000 a year, 5.5 used heroin in 2013. This was more than three times the rate for people living in households making more than $50,000.

In 2013, young people between the ages of 18 and 25 used heroin at a rate of 7.3 per thousand people, a 109 percent increase from 2003. Those over the age of 25 use heroin less, at a rate of 1.9 per thousand people.

The concurrence of economic distress and heroin use finds expression in the city of Baltimore. “As many as one in 10 of the city’s residents are addicted,” according to a March 2015 “ABC News” special entitled “Baltimore is the U.S. Heroin Capital.” Life is so bleak for working class teens that a study by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health found that Baltimore teens faced worse health conditions and life choices than their counterparts in urban Nigeria, India and China.
Heroin abuse has grown alongside a larger synthetic-opiate drug addiction epidemic in the United States. Between 2003 and 2013 prescription drug use quadrupled. In 2013, 6.1 million Americans abused prescription drugs, of which, opioids, such as Vicodin, OxyContin and Percocet, constituted the majority. Eighty percent of heroin users have also used prescription opiates.

The CDC report notes that while heroin is still primarily used amongst poor city-dwellers, groups with historically low rates of use, such as women, those with incomes exceeding $50,000 a year, and those with private insurance have also increasedpossibly due to heroin being a cheaper alternative to these prescription drugs. The CDC, however, states that in areas where prescription drug abuse increased, heroin abuse did too. This means that there is not an exodus from prescription medication to heroin, but an increase in both simultaneously.

Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) Acting Administrator, Chuck Rosenberg, commented to CNN regarding the report. He stated that 120 people died each day in the United States due to drug overdose and that his agency would “continue to target the criminal gangs that supply heroin, and we will work to educate folks about the dangers and to reduce demand.”

The increased availability of heroin in the US is related to the US military’s invasion and occupation of Afghanistan, the world’s largest producer of opium, a precursor of heroin.

Heroin production has increased as Afghani farmers struggle to achieve an income amid decades of war and occupation. In addition to being lucrative in a time of profound insecurity, heroin is produced because the fruit and nut tree groves the climate allows have been destroyed. According to the Afghanistan government, in southern Kandahar province alone $100 million damage was done to fruit crops and homes between the US invasion in 2001 and 2011.

An August 2010 a Washington Post article, for instance, documents how US soldiers would destroy vineyards and orchards to ensure Taliban fighters had no place to hide mines.

In 2013, 209,000 hectares of opium were cultivated in Afghanistan, up from 82,000 hectares in 2000.
The enormous growth in heroin use, particularly among young people, reflects the disastrous social and economic reality in the United States, where young people confront mass unemployment and shrinking prospects for education.

This summer, only about one in four US teenagers will hold a job, down from one in two fifteen years ago.

To the extent that jobs are available, they are disproportionately low-wage, part-time, and contingent. A 2014 report by the National Employment Law Project noted that while US businesses have added 1.85 million low-wage jobs over the past six years, they have eliminated 1.83 million medium-wage and high-wage jobs.

“According to the report, the amount of heroin seized at the southern U.S. border increased 232% between 2008 and 2012 — apparently the result of greater Mexican heroin production and a growing incursion by Mexican traffickers into U.S. markets. It notes that the U.S. is experiencing a “sizable increase” in the number of new heroin users.”
