A spokesman for the Department of Homeland Security, Dennis Murphy, said "there are no changes in policy …this means they are going to do nothing about the to business as usual.
Following meetings with several members of Congress concerned about what critics characterized as "sweeps," Border and Transportation Security Undersecretary Asa Hutchinson concluded that the Temecula agents failed to follow policy by not obtaining prior authorization. ……. He met with Joe Baca Californian legislator with ties to the Mexican government.
Hutchinson wrote: "Most Border Patrol operations have a clear border nexus and deal with recent arrivals to the United States.,,,, Recent arrivals means within minutes of crossing, once they are in they are free….
Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Robert Bonner issued a directive to Border Patrol sectors that stated purely interior enforcement must be pre-approved and coordinated with ICE…. and no approvals will be grated as long as there are votes to be had from illegal immigrant sympathizers.
"This memorandum of understanding in no way limits the authority of the Border Patrol agents working along the border and at our immigration checkpoints," said Gloria Chavez, a spokeswoman …… but if they make it across the boarder into the interior such s the 2 million already in California for example they will be the responsibility of the local tax payer to feed shelter and educate, not the Mexican government or Federal US government.
But at least a few people can see through the smoke and mirrors coming out of the Bush lawyers; ….. Customs and Border Protection officials said the intent is not to take duties away from Border Patrol agents and Joe Dassaro, president of Local 1613 of the National Border Patrol Council, the agents union. Said” This would restrict the Border Patrol to the border and a very immediate area."
"federal officials are drafting guidelines that are supposed to clarify the roles of the two principal agencies in charge of guarding the border...
Tweedle-dumb and tweedle-dee?
These people disgust me...dereliction of duty ...politics before country....yeah that sums it up. Asa a consumate cover- up flying monkey.
So this means the Immigration and Customs Enforcement "ICE" will start conducting the inland sweeps anytime now
NOT!!!!
