Migrant to Mexico Denounces Hypocrite Jorge Ramos

“I cover many issues in many countries” (Univision’s Jorge Ramos to CNN’s Brian Stelter 8/25/2015).

“I’ve never ceased to be Mexican. I have two passports, and I vote in elections in both countries" (Univision’s Jorge Ramos, Time Magazine, 1/2/2013).

“Then why your silence on the thousands upon thousands of Cubans that are arrested, beaten, extorted and deported by migratory officials of YOUR country, Mr. Ramos?” (Rafael Alejandro Hernández, 8/28/ 2015)

Rafael Alejandro Hernández is a young Cuban lawyer living in Mexico who knows from firsthand experience what migrants to Mexico go through. Last week he unloaded on Jorge Ramos:

Actually the term “impertinent” hardly does justice to some of Univision’s stunts. Back in 2011, for instance, Univision tried to blackmail Senator Marco Rubio.

At the time Senator Rubio’s position regarding illegal immigrants was widely perceived as pretty close to Trump’s today. He opposed even the DREAM Act. Hence the blackmail attempt by America’s top media proponent of illegal immigration: Univision. Even the liberal Miami Herald reported on the blackmail attempt.

For all their “Hispanic”-pandering Univision’s owner is actually an Egyptian-born Israeli-American named Haim Saban, who ranks among the Democratic Party’s most lavish benefactors. "I don't say this lightly," said Democratic National Committee head Terry McAuliffe back in 2007, "Haim Saban saved the Democratic Party."  Saban is also a major financier of the Clinton Foundation, contributing between $10 million-$25 million recently.

Back in July 2011, Senator Rubio was asked to appear on the network’s top show, Al Punto, for an interview with Jorge Ramos, who at the time was hailed as “the Brian Williams of Hispanic TV” by AdAge. (Yes -- in that long ago and far away time and place being equated with Brian Williams was a compliment.)

The plan called for “Hispanic” Univision tinkling the tune and “Hispanic” Senator Marco Rubio either stepping and fetching, tap-dancing or being outed in front of the vast majority of America’s “Hispanic” households as anything “but a credit to his race”; more like a traitor. 

Senator Rubio declined the role of Mr. Bo Jangles. So Univision cranked up the inducements. They had the goods on Rubio, they explained in a meeting with his staff. Marco’s brother-in-law had been busted for drugs in 1987 and they planned a prime-time expose of the scandal. Marco’s cooperation with an interview just might prompt Univision to “soften” or even kill the program altogether. 

When Marco’s sister refused Univision’s offer to “contribute” to their report, the network parked a huge news truck in front of her house to further harass her and apparently also to further dramatize their “investigative prowess.”

Univision’s “expose" on Rubio’s brother-in-law ran for two days in July 2011 and instantly fizzled, despite a publicity blizzard by Univision to their mainstream media soulmates. Apparently the tangent proved too embarrassingly tenuous even for most Rubio-bashers (of the time). 

Univision’s blackmail attempt was so widely recognized and condemned that it nixed the network’s planned hosting of the Republican debate in 2012. “Even in this time of ever-changing media techniques, Univision’s unethical tactics stand out,” wrote Rick Perry spokesman Ray Sullivan to Univision’s CEO. “Therefore, Gov. Perry will not consider participating in the Jan. 29, 2012, Univision debate until your network addresses this ethical breach and takes action to correct it.” All candidates except Ron Paul were in lockstep with Gov. Perry on the Univision boycott.

Needless to say, things have changed. In fact, Jeb Bush—widely hailed as Marco Rubio’s “mentor” -- now sides with Univision against Trump, saying : “I think people with the press (Ramos) ought to be treated with a little more respect and dignity.”  

And just in case you had any doubts about what Castroism did to Cuba. Here’s a country that pre-Castro was swamped with immigrants from Europe. Now its people flee desperately to a (relative) paradise named Mexico.

The Democrats do not understand that allowing all these illegal aliens to immediately become citizens will poison the well. The very same well from which their own friends and families drink from. The politics that they are urging to come in and swamp the vote, to beat the republicans, will be the Democrats party's undoing.

Es mi partido, ahora (it's my party now).

Trump blew an opportunity to comment about Ramos’s dual citizenship and raise the issue by asking if Ramos supports Mexican claims on California, Nevada,Texas, and New Mexico ?
Then nail it by asking “Why we shouldn’t treat illegals the way the Mexican’s do ?”.

After he kicked Ramos out of his presser for disrupting it and not letting him back in.

The Mexican government pays him for his “work” on screwing the US with their poor and uneducated people. And...their cartels and gangs, criminals and perverts. I bet they pay him a pretty penny to shut his mouth about what he should not see and brow beating Americans into accepting the Mexican government’s social engineering program. Or else...he’ll call us raaaaaaacists. : ) Screw that.

Hold on tight because Obama is bringing in super nasty South American gangs and Muslim mobs (some Isis), too. He’s so damn evil. He’s settling them all over the US in rural States and areas. What he has done to harm us; these problems and this danger won’t be ironed out in my lifetime.

Americans better get guns and learn how to use them NOW while they can and never give them up and never stop defending themselves no matter what Obama or the next globalists foreigner in office and/or Congress demands. NO REGISTRATION, either!!!! People don’t realize what is coming upon them.

Maybe Trump didn't know Ramos has a dual citizenship. Did you know? And if he had commended on it, it could have backfired negatively on Trump.

Ever think of that?

Trump has a personal fight going on between him and Unvision’s owner who by the way is not “hispanic” So I suspect he did. Because when it gets personal Trump is the sort of guy who gets all the info he can on his enemies and their operation.

“Did you know? (Ramos had dual citizenship ?) “
Yes I did.

“And if he had commended (commented ?)on it”, (not have dual citizenship ?) it could have backfired negatively on Trump. Ever think of that?”

I firmly believe he knew about it, but didn’t use it the way I suggested. Challange Ramos’s views on Mexican claims on US territory and their treatment of illegals. Trump reacts in a very personal way and doesn’t think and respond in achieving poltical objective terms.

He’s done the same to Kelly when he could have used Palin as an example in his CNN interview and used her as example of how the media works. And would have avoided those anti-feminist charges.He’s done the same to Hewitt recently. Even though Levin defended Trump,questioning Hewitt’s tactics and minimized the need to know . Hewitt asked the same questions of Fiorina and she came through with flying colors.
