Massachusetts Quietly Begins
Rethinking That Whole Sanctuary Thing
While you won’t catch any Democrats admitting it publicly, the
Bay State may be getting ready to roll back some of their “sanctuary state”
status. The Governor, Charlie Baker, has submitted
draft legislation which would allow (though not mandate) police
to honor ICE detainers and hold illegal aliens arrested for other crimes so
that immigration enforcement officials can pick them up for processing and
deportation. No matter how they try to spin it (and they are definitely trying,
as we’ll get to in a moment), this is big news. (Boston Globe)
A bill that would allow — but not require — local police in
Massachusetts to detain immigrants at the request of federal authorities is not
in response to pressure from the Trump administration, Daniel Bennett, the
state’s secretary of public safety and security, testified at the State House
Tuesday.
Governor Charlie Baker’s proposed legislation formalizes what
was an informal practice during the Obama administration, Bennett told the
Joint Committee on the Judiciary. Local authorities, if they previously chose
to, could hold an immigrant wanted by federal immigration officials for up to
48 hours, he said.
But in July, the Supreme Judicial
Court determined that police officers don’t have the authority under
Massachusetts law to comply with detainer requests from Immigration and Customs
Enforcement. Doing so, the state’s highest court said, would be akin to an
illegal arrest.
So basically, everyone is tripping over themselves to assure the
good people of Massachusetts that they are in no way,
no how, in any fashion whatsoever doing this because of
President Trump, Jeff Sessions or their policies concerning criminal illegal
aliens. Nope. Not them. No siree. The state’s secretary of public safety and
security had to be trotted out before the cameras to make this crystal clear
and a spokesperson for the Governor was doing likewise.
Chris Wray, Rod Rosenstein beg White
House: Don't #ReleaseTheMemo
The first curious part of this spin festival is that the
Governor is pointing out an inconvenient truth, to borrow a phase from Al Gore.
Allowing the cops to hold an illegal alien for ICE was actually their stated
policy when Barack Obama was in office. It only became “a bad idea” after Trump
was elected. Funny how that works, huh?
But there’s also one awkward fact that the Governor can’t dodge.
Last week Boston was presumably on the list of cities which received a rather
pointed letter from the Department of Justice asking for proof of whether or
not they allowed cooperation with immigration officials in the pursuit of
criminal illegal aliens. A failure to comply obviously puts them in line for
reduced or eliminated JAG grant money next year. And now we’re being asked to
believe that the arrival of the letter and this proposed legislation coming
only a week later are completely unrelated.
Sure thing, boss. Pull the other one. It’s got bells on it.
But that bill is at the state level and, as I already mentioned,
not mandatory. Boston is still standing firm in their plans to be a sanctuary
city.
Boston is — and will remain — a sanctuary city, Alejandra St.
Guillen, director of immigrant advancement for the city of Boston, told the
committee on Tuesday.
Baker’s bill, she said, will
“erode trust” between immigrant communities and police officers and is a “step
in the wrong direction.”
It seems as if Governor Baker is playing this in a clever
fashion. He can allow the City of Boston to tank their federal grant money
while still holding the door open for aid for the State Police and any other
towns and cities wishing to comply. Assuming he gets the bill pushed through,
he’s kind of throwing the Mayor of Boston under the bus, but hey… when you’re
making an omelet, sometimes you have to crack a few eggs, right?

Mark Levin: Trump's plan will give citizenship to 11 million illegal aliens
I watched with horror as President Trump, giving his State of the Union address,announced how proud he was to be calling for amnesty for nearly three times the number of illegal aliens that Obama had.
Trump feels that he has done even better than Obama in offering amnesty for illegals. I think on this issue it would be better to have Obama back, as he's to the right of Trump on the amnesty issue.
Have you ever heard of anyone denied citizenship because of education, work status, or moral character? Do you think whoever is president, long after Trump is gone from office, will deny citizenship to any illegal based on their "moral character"? We have citizens who can't even speak English!
But it's even worse than that. As Mark Levin said on his show last night, (at the 41 minute mark)
How do we get from 1.8 million to 11 million? Simple. Because under Trump's plan, chain migration will not end for years.
Whether it's four million more or nine million or another large number, the point is that the "grandfathering" or those already on the waiting list and the addition of nearly two million more illegals who in turn will bring in even more "immediate relatives" (who in turn will bring in even more, hence the chain aspect) will mean amnesty for millions more.
Levin also makes a point that whatever Trumps gets in return, such as funding for a border wall or an eventual end to chain migration years down the road, can be undone by the next president, but amnesty is immediate, in the present, and cannot be changed.
Levin lamented that "Trump cultists" and "clapping seals" will love Trump's plan, seeing it as a secret strategy to somehow get border security without granting amnesty, but Levin says that those who believe this are incorrect. He calls on conservatives to speak out now to "pull the President back" to a conservative position so the mass amnesty will not occur.

THE TRUMP AMNESTY TO LEGALIZE MEXICO’S LOOTING AND KEEP WAGES FOR LEGALS DEPRESSED
The draft amnesty will also serve as complete proof in November that Trump’s voters’ wrongly placed their trust in his August 2016 promise to block any amnesty: (SEE LINK).

"But the taxpayers’ costs also act as a $26 billion stimulus for business which will provide the migrants with medical services, apartments, entertainment, food, and transport. The continued inflow of the 4 million chain-migrants, however, is a vastly greater benefit for business and burden for American workers." NEIL MUNRO
THE LA RAZA SUPREMACY DEMOCRAT PARTY'S VISION OF AMERICA:
DEATH OF THE GOP AND 49 MEXIFORNIAS!
Adios, Sanctuary
La Raza Welfare State of California
A fifth-generation Californian laments his state’s ongoing economic collapse. By Steve Baldwin American Spectator, October 19, 2017 What’s clear is that the producers are leaving the state and the takers are coming in. Many of the takers are illegal aliens, now estimated to number over 2.6 million. The Federation for American Immigration Reform estimates that California spends $22 billion on government services for illegal aliens, including welfare, education, Medicaid, and criminal justice system costs.

MANY DISPUTE CALIFORNIA’S EXPENDITURES FOR THE LA RAZA WELFARE STATE IN
MEXIFORNIA JUST AS THEY DISPUTE THE NUMBER OF ILLEGALS. APPROXIMATELY HALF THE
POPULATION OF CA IS NOW MEXICAN AND BREEDING ANCHOR BABIES FOR WELFARE LIKE
BUNNIES. THE $22 BILLION IS STATE EXPENDITURE ONLY. COUNTIES PAY OUT MORE WITH
LOS ANGELES COUNTY LEADING AT OVER A BILLION DOLLARS PAID OUT YEARLY TO
MEXICO’S ANCHOR BABY BREEDERS. NOW MULTIPLY THAT BY THE NUMBER OF COUNTIES IN
CA AND YOU START TO GET AN IDEA OF THE STAGGERING WELFARE STATE MEXICO AND THE
DEMOCRAT PARTY HAVE ERECTED SANS ANY LEGALS VOTES. ADD TO THIS THE FREE
ENTERPRISE HOSPITAL AND CLINIC COST FOR LA RAZA’S “FREE” MEDICAL WHICH IS
ESTIMATED TO BE ABOUT $1.5 BILLION PER YEAR.
Liberals
claim they more than make that up with taxes paid, but that’s simply not true.
It’s not even close. FAIR estimates illegal aliens in California contribute
only $1.21 billion in tax revenue, which means they cost California $20.6
billion, or at least $1,800 per household.
Nonetheless, open border advocates, such as Facebook Chairman Mark Zuckerberg, claim illegal aliens are a net benefit to California with little evidence to support such an assertion. As the Center for Immigration Studies has documented, the vast majority of illegals are poor, uneducated, and with few skills. How does accepting millions of illegal aliens and then granting them access to dozens of welfare programs benefit California’s economy? If illegal aliens were contributing to the economy in any meaningful way, California, with its 2.6 million illegal aliens, would be booming. Furthermore, the complexion of illegal aliens has changed with far more on welfare and committing crimes than those who entered the country in the 1980s. Heather Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute has testified before a Congressional committee that in 2004, 95% of all outstanding warrants for murder in Los Angeles were for illegal aliens; in 2000, 23% of all Los Angeles County jail inmates were illegal aliens and that in 1995, 60% of Los Angeles’s largest street gang, the 18th Street gang, were illegal aliens. Granted, those statistics are old, but if you talk to any California law enforcement officer, they will tell you it’s much worse today. The problem is that the Brown administration will not release any statewide data on illegal alien crimes. That would be insensitive. And now that California has declared itself a “sanctuary state,” there is little doubt this sends a message south of the border that will further escalate illegal immigration into the state.
"If the racist "Sensenbrenner
Legislation" passes the US Senate, there is no doubt that a massive civil
disobedience movement will emerge. Eventually labor union power can merge with
the immigrant civil rights and "Immigrant Sanctuary" movements
to enable us to either form a new political party or to do heavy duty reforming
of the existing Democratic Party. The next and final steps would follow and
that is to elect our own governors of all the states within Aztlan."
Indeed, California goes out of its way to attract illegal aliens. The state has even created government programs that cater exclusively to illegal aliens. For example, the State Department of Motor Vehicles has offices that only process driver licenses for illegal aliens. With over a million illegal aliens now driving in California, the state felt compelled to help them avoid the long lines the rest of us must endure at the DMV. And just recently, the state-funded University of California system announced it will spend $27 million on financial aid for illegal aliens. They’ve even taken out radio spots on stations all along the border, just to make sure other potential illegal border crossers hear about this program. I can’t afford college education for all my four sons, but my taxes will pay for illegals to get a college education. |
