MICHIGAN—

Over 3,000 convicted immigration fugitives were arrested as part of a nation-wide sting operation, with nearly 70 of them in Michigan.

The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) led the six day operation, said to be the largest of its kind. In all, it involved 1,900 ICE officers, with assistance from ICE Homeland Security Investigations.

Arrests were made in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, three US territories and Washington DC.

Of the 3,100 arrests, 67 were made in Michigan. Twenty-one were arrested in the Detroit area, 19 in the Grand Rapids area and the remainder was arrested around the state.

ICE says that those arrested in Michigan were mostly male, coming from countries including Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Cuba, Iraq, and others.

The agency says 204 of those arrested were turned over to US attorneys for prosecution on a variety of charges.

Even here in Jenison, there are problems as well. My parents have a house across the street which has 10 cars parked in the driveway and an awful lot of people in the house versus the other homes on the street. I install for DirecTV and go into several homes and am often stepping over people in basements and makeshift rooms in homes as well. Grand Rapids may lose 5-10% of its population if illegals were gotten rid of.

Obama and the MSM are trying to pull the biggest SHAM in American history - possibly WORLD history! If they succeed, this will replace the Trojan Horse as the most successful deceptive "combat" maneuver!

He has been in office for three plus years and has done nothing but open the borders, tie the hands of local authorities, RELEASE thousands of captured illegals and coddle them! Now, NOW he starts trying to look tough on illegal immigration?

If the American public falls for this charade, then I believe the United States has less than thirty years before we fall harder, louder and more destructively than the Roman Empire! It will be harsh, deadly and will create world-wide ripples that will last for decades!

“...it is only in the news to convince people that aren’t unassimilated ethnic minorities, homosexuals, or public school teachers that they should vote for Obama.”

That’s exactly what I was thinking! Well, almost.
