Rep. Gutierrez: Obama 'Should Be Expanding His Prosecutorial Discretion’
CNSNews ^ | December 3, 2013 | Melanie Hunter

(CNSNews.com) - At a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday, Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) said that President Barack Obama should be expanding his prosecutorial discretion when it comes to enforcement of immigration laws.

“Unfortunately, he should not be limiting his prosecutorial discretion. He should be expanding his prosecutorial discretion,” Gutierrez said during a hearing on the constitutionality and legality of actions the Obama administration has taken on issues like the enforcement of immigration laws.

The president signed a memo calling for deferred action for certain young illegal aliens who came into the country as children and have pursued education or military service in the United States. The president’s policy is referred to as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), and the children who are covered under DACA are known as DREAMers. The Department of Homeland Security began implementing DACA on Aug. 15, 2012.

Gutierrez admitted that three Dreamers are working in his congressional office. Another Dreamer, who worked as a congressional aide for Rep. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.), quit her job to fight for her mother, who is facing deportation, he said.

Gutierrez praised the president’s decision to not to enforce the immigration laws for some children of illegal immigrants, saying that if one of them was dangerous or caused harm, Republicans would hold that person up as an example of how the DACA does not work.

Obama “set children aside and said ‘I’m no longer going to prosecute them, because they do not present an eminent threat,’ and guess what Mr. Chairman, a year and a half later, 500,000 of them are walking around, and I assure you if you could find one and bring them up here that shows how he’s caused some danger or some harm, that person would have already have come. But the fact is that they’re not,” he said.

“Look, they’re American citizens in everything but a piece of paper,” Gutierrez said.

Gutierrez is as bad as the tyrant in the WH, 0bama has already gone way past prosecutorial discretion by not deporting many criminal illegal aliens.

Wow, the evil that walks the halls of Washington would make the founders puke. They would be screaming for a new revolution.

You’re absolutely right...The founders fought against tyrants like 0bama and Gutierrez for freedom and the right to live by the rule of law.

He has three ‘dreamers’ aka illegals working in his office. I guess he couldn’t find any natural born citizens for the job!

Besides the fact that he sounds really, really ignorant! Only Shelia Jackson Lee topped him in that department today.

Yep, it says a lot about a congresscritter when they won’t even hire citizens to work or intern for them.

I believe that could be classified as “aiding and abetting.”

Thanks jazusamo. The problem is DACA *does* work, and was designed to help foreign criminals destroy the United States. We need to repeal it, build the border fence (triple barrier, electronic frontier including listening for tunneling), and then do outreach into Mexico, to encourage secession of the border states, and arming citizens of those states to exterminate the drug gangsters.

By exterminate I mean, to kill every last one of them. But I mean that in the nicest possible way, so, kumbaya.

The path to citizenship needs to begin in foreign countries, in the form of classes in our embassies abroad. Candidates for immigration need to be vetted and educated before they can even apply for entry.

Isn't that still the pathway that legal immigrants follow? Or is it the pathway that legal immigrants used to follow?

Gutierrez has three illegals working in his Capitol Hill office-- snubbing US citizens to work or intern in Congress is discrimination. Gutierrez should be charged w/ “aiding and abetting.”

GUTIERREZ HAS BIG PLANS---TO HIM, AMNESTY IS ONLY THE BEGINNING: "Once Congress approves an immigration increase, minorities should demand more, said Gutierrez, a leading advocate of the giveaway Senate bill.

“The next day after we pass it, you know we’re not going to be satisfied, we’re going to come back,” he said. “We’re going to have a civil rights act, we’re going to have a voting rights act… Nobody is leaving this fight once we conclude this first chapter,” he said. "Hopefully, in 30 years, [we] can bring immigrants… from all over the world,” Gutierrez said.

This planned conquest speaks loudly of Gutierrez's nefarious political ambitions---organizing the Third World into competing pressure groups, voting blocs, and para-military groups----conniving to (1) undermine US ntl security, takeover the SW, and, (2) rape the US Treasury.

===================================================

TAXPAYERS DEMAND AN IMMEDIATE THOROUGH INVESTIGATION OF GUTTIEREZ. US citizens demand need to know answers WRT an individual w/ nefarious designs on our government.

<><> Who is Gutierrez?

<><> Did he get into Congress using voter fraud?

<><> Did he coach illegals to vote using multiple identities?

<><> How many identities does Gutierrez have now?

<><> How many identities did Gutierrez ever use?

<><> Does Gutierrez have a rap sheet here? In Mexico? Elsewhere?

<><> Does he now or did he ever receive welfare, food stamps, SSI, free medical care, Section 8 housing, UI, Workmen's comp under several identities?

<><> Did he ever apply for, and receive, monthly SS checks, claiming "asylum?"

<><> Does he have a sub-prime mortgage obtained w/ the help of The Hispanic Caucus on Capitol Hill?

<><> Did Gutierrez ever make false claims on IRS forms in order to get EITC refunds?

<><> Does Gutierrez---a former cab driver---have a legal driver's license?

<><> Does he have a valid passport?

<><> How many times did Gutierrez wire-transfer money back to Mexico? The Third World?

<><> How often does he travel to Mexico? The Third World?

<><> Is he registered to vote under several identities?

<><> Does he belong to radical America-hating organizations planning armed conflict to takeover the American Southwest?

<><> Do his kids now or did they ever get in-state tuition--free school lunches--welfare--- food stamps-free healthcare---SSI/ADD checks.

<><> Does Gutierrez know how much money is being drained from the US economy---wired back to secret Mexican bank accounts?

<><> Does his retirement include SS checks for multiple when all his identities?

<><> Did Gutierrez ever use his Congressional office to coach illegals on using multiple identities to get tax dollars?

<><> Did Gutierrez ever use his Congressional office to help illegals SWINDLE THE US GOVT?

=================================================

DID GUTIERREZ USE HIS CONGRESSIONAL OFFICE TO HELP ILLEGALS OBTAIN FRAUDULENT MORTGAGES? MORTGAGES THAT DEVSTATED THE US ECONOMY? THAT US TAXPAYERS WERE FORCED TO BAILOUT?

Isn't that nice----three illegals (that we know of) working in our govt. A shame they had to take time from poring over their holdings pocketed from riding the US gravy train under multiple identities:

UI, SSI, Workmen's Comp,

TANF (temporary assistance to needy families),

WICS (food assistance),

subsidized Section 8 shelter,

ObamaPhone subsidies,

Utility Assistance subsidies,

School breakfasts/lunches/snacks subsidies,

$5000 a year EITC checks per identity,

monthly "asylum" checks from SS ....

All of that collected several times over using multiple several identities. Plus there's the hefty bundles of US cash---from stiffing US banks for fraudulent sub-prime mtges (which we taxpayers had to bailout).

Thanks Liz for the ping. On this matter am speechless because I would go on a rant (a huge rant) and would probably wind up banned because of my words. Yes, Liz, the divide has been crossed and am looking at millions with millions more on the way; Should there not be a miracle am of the belief we shall soon be overrun.
