OK, LA Times, we agree. Let’s start with you production facilities and the people who hire your labor.

It'll also require crackdowns on the businesses that drive illegal immigration by hiring illegal aliens.

Let's have a 'crackdown' on GOVERNMENTS that drive illegal immigration by giving welfare, free education, driver licenses, and medical care to illegal aliens.

LA times wants focus on everify because they know a 9th Circuit judge will find it unconstitutional on some BS ground and throw a monkey wrench into it. It will take years and a few more SC judges to get the system under control.

BS. I’ve been on a bunch of interviews that I wasn’t hired and I could never find out why. Ever.

There are all kinds of signs of the times, but the linchpin is the appearance of the Revelation 12:1-2 “great sign in the heaven” as an actual, and extremely rare, celestial alignment. The other development is the apparent “unsealing” of the prophecies given to Daniel.

The best explanation of these whole thing, in my opinion, has been done by an Okie named Steve Sewell who runs the HEAVENLY SIGN 2017 YouTube and website. He recently summarized his current timeline in the 26 minute YouTube video:

BULLETPROOF RAPTURE WINDOW THE TRUTH WE’VE ALL BEEN SEARCHING FOR

It says that you either have six months left, or you are going to have a very bad next seven and a half years.

Carrier and Sprint had nothing to do with illegal labor.

Maybe not but Verizon does, they hired S&N Communications to bury their fiber optic and they in turn hired Guatemalans to dig up my yard.

You are very welcome. Here is a text description of the Revelation 12:1-2 sign:

Revelation Chapter 12:
1 Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a garland of twelve stars.
2 Then being with child, she cried out in labor and in pain to give birth.

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 1193). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

Previous Bible commentators have taken this as a symbolic vision about Israel (Mary) giving birth to Jesus, and marking the start of the 3 1/2 year Great Tribulation.
However, since “knowledge had increased”, we can use star charting programs such as Stellarium to see that this could be a literal “great sign” in heaven.

The constellation “Virgo”, the Virgin, has always been identified with Mary the Mother of Jesus. The nine stars of Leo, the Lion (of Judah), form a “garland” above her head.
Jupiter has always been identified as the “King” star. It is striped (by His stripes we are healed) and has a large, red spot (they pierced His side).

Here is the sequence of events regarding the Sun, Moon, Jupiter, Virgo, Leo, Mercury, Mars and Venus

Mon, 21 November 2016 = 20th of Cheshvan, 5777
Jupiter enters Virgo crossing line from Spica to Porrima

Sat, 28 January 2017 = 1st of Sh’vat, 5777
Jupiter retrograde motion begins inside Virgo. “Gestation” begins??

-—— YOU ARE HERE!! -——

Sat, 10 June 2017 = 16th of Sivan, 5777
Jupiter prograde motion resumes inside Virgo

Thu, 17 August 2017 = 25th of Av, 5777
Total Solar eclipse across America (from Portland to Charleston)

Sun, 10 September 2017 = 19th of Elul, 5777
Jupiter crosses Heze — Spica line. Virgin gives birth? Conjunction Regulus and Mercury

Wed, 20 September 2017 = 29th of Elul, 5777
New Moon, Venus — Regulus conjunction - Aligns with Great Pyramid at Giza

Sun, 24 September 2017 = 4th of Tishrei, 5778
Sun at Virgo’s shoulders (clothed), the Moon is at her feet, Mercury, Mars, Venus are added to Leo’s nine stars as Virgo’s 12-star ‘garland’

The great sign in the heaven is complete. This formation last happened in the about 5932 years ago, with Saturn in place of Mercury, and won’t happen again for at least another 2000 years.

Luke 21
25 “And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring;
26 “men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
27 “Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 “Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.”

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 1023). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

Graphic says 23 September 2017, as it depends on where you say Virgo’s feet are. Besides, no one knows the day or the hour.

Revelation 12
3 And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads.
4 His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give birth,
to devour her Child as soon as it was born.
5 She bore a male Child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron. And her Child was caught up to God and His throne.
6 Then the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that they should feed her there one thousand two hundred and sixty days.

1. Go to Google Sky: https://www.google.com/sky/
2. Click on Constellations in the bottom button bar.
3. Click on Virgo (last button) in the bottom button bar.
4. Click on “Infrared” button at top right of the main window.
5. Click on the “+” button two times.
6. Observe the rectangular black space with the Green “star” with a kind of red “diadems” under it.

Note: Apparently the thing that Goggle is trying to block has gotten closer and they have not yet change the censoring pixels. Is this “another sign”?

Steve Sewell has located the original image before it was censored on Google Sky:

Isaiah 66
5 Hear the word of the LORD, You who tremble at His word: “Your brethren who hated you, Who cast you out for My name’s sake, said, ‘Let the LORD be glorified, That we may see your joy.’ But they shall be ashamed.”
6 The sound of noise from the city! A voice from the temple! The voice of the LORD, Who fully repays His enemies!
7 “Before she was in labor, she gave birth; Before her pain came, She delivered a male child.
8 Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall the earth be made to give birth in one day? Or shall a nation be born at once? For as soon as Zion was in labor, She gave birth to her children.

If Trump had gone after Business owners first the LA Times would have written a critical piece asking why Trump wasn’t going after the ‘undocumented’ first....

The press has no integrity - just hatred for our elected President and the people who elected him.

You may not claim that because they do not speak English they are not legal.

Which is unfortunate, because the only people here legally who wouldn't speak English would likely be tourist visas, maybe some of the green cards (dunno if knowing English is a requirement or not), but that's about it. If someone claims to be a citizen, they either: grew up in the US, so they know English, or they're naturalized, of which one of the requirements is the ability to read, speak, and write English.

Each and every illegal that is deported that is employed is a source of evidence about the employer that can be used to build a case against the employer. Actions against employers are not immediate, an investigation must be done to build a case.

When it was more common for employers to be held accountable the usual course of it was the illegals working there would be detained and deported rapidly usually in a raid type situation but not always. Actions against the employer would come some time later; months or even years as it played out.

Remember the previous administrations were looking the other way and not enforcing these laws for the most part as well. I think this administration will build cases forward from when Trump took office instead of trying to backtrack to a time frame when there was little to no enforcement. It will take a little time to begin to enforce those laws.

I will be shocked if we don’t start seeing employers being held accountable at some point in this process.

Yes and the deportations should be putting businesses on notice that hiring illegals will be looked at in a new light. If a business hiring illegals now is not concerned the spotlight will turn to them they are not too bright. I would bet many of them are looking over their shoulder as well.

It'll also require crackdowns on the businesses that drive illegal immigration by hiring illegal aliens.

Don't forget the welfare office workers that allow illegals to get on benefits. We need to penalize them too, with loss of funding.

That is true and was done on purpose by open borders supporters. That is a web that has to be untangled before real enforcement against employers can take place.

This mess is so out of control I remember a few years ago a sheriff’s department was in trouble for not hiring people they knew to be illegals.

It has taken a while to get to this point, it will not be fixed over night by anyone.

“When it was more common for employers to be held accountable....”

That sure seems like a long time ago now. Anymore, when we read or hear about some employer being busted for hiring illegals, rarely as it is, it seems it’s almost always a larger corporation or the like. I’m guessing, but I’d imagine that by far the largest source of employment for illegals are both small time businesses (contractors, restaurants, landscapers, etc) and families who either hire them for the home front (nannies, maintenance, grounds keepers) or family run small business operations.

It bothers me to no end how so many so called conservatives here in our area of the nation (SW NM) have no problem whatsoever hiring old Pablo to ‘help out’. Many small contractors have an illegal or two or three on their crew, and it seems almost every rancher has one or a few to mend fence, repair buildings, help with the roundups, etc. I have lost countless jobs in our area due to this. Old Pablo’s been working for them for years, does it for half the going rate, and “ya just can’t find anybody who will work as hard as running a wet”.

These so called conservatives seem to have good intentions, but not at the cost of obeying the law, or what it really boils down to: money. Over the past year, I had been approached by about a half dozen different men in church saying they had a job they’d like me to do, usually some kind of building remodel. Every single one of them is engaged in ranching at one level or another. They know that old Pablo is handy with building, so after they think about it a bit, even though I’m one of the least expensive builders in the county with decades of experience, they can’t bring themselves to hire a gringo, fellow church member none the less, when they know they can just have Pablo do the work at 10 or 12 bucks an hour. Think of the hundreds of thousands of citizens in our nation who have the exact same attitude, and it’s no wonder that there’s MILLIONS of illegals in our country doing the jobs U.S. Citizens should have.

Another thing that the damn amnesty people tend to ignore, is after Reagan did Amnesty 1, back in 1986, agricultural and contstruction wages immediately dropped.

I’m just so sick of it. Sorry for the rant.

I do not think it was ever a matter of kicking the can down the road, I believe all of this was done on purpose to provide cheap labor. Open borders goes with globalism.
