President Barack Obama told the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Thursday night he was accompanied to the convention center by two illegal aliens, whom he called "dreamers."
"I want to give a special thanks to two young men who rode over with me from the White House tonight," Obama said. "Luis and Victor are CHCI (Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute) interns and fellows. They are also dreamers, living and working in the country they call home, and making it a better place for all of us...

Yep...one is known by the company one keeps.
Here’s their interns:

I see a Luis (middle name), but I don’t see a Victor.
I don’t care if they are very nice young men, they are illegal and should not be allowed to ride with the President. Where is our Secret Service on this? Did they ask him not to do this and he overrode them???
My take:
The SS is now totally and completely under control of the WH. BO and MO no doubt have thrown their power around influencing those who were legitimatly doing their job to retire or transfer replacing them with weak or like minded liberals who would bend rules to appease the residence
People who would ignore certain behaviors etc
Being in the presence of illigals is of no important s if you yourself are guilty of illegal actions
All well and good, to be sure.
The point is to get the ball rolling-—you never know what’s gonna crawl out from under that rock.
Our spineless and gutless ‘leadership’ will NEVER do anything to upset the thugocracy
Luis, Victor, and Obama makes 3 illegal aliens!
I suspect he rode them.

Congressional Hispanic Internship Program Mission
The purpose of the Congressional Internship Program (CIP) is to expose young Latinos to the legislative process and to strengthen their professional and leadership skills, ultimately promoting the presence of Latinos on Capitol Hill and in Federal Agencies.
Congressional Internship Program Description
The Congressional Internship Program provides college students with a paid work placement in a Congressional Office or Federal Agency for a period of twelve weeks (Spring/Fall) or eight weeks (Summer). This unmatched experience allows students to learn first hand about our nation’s legislative process.
Promising Latino undergraduates from across the country are selected for this leadership training program. Students gain work experience, participate in a community service project, and receive educational and professional programming provided by CHCI. This comprehensive three-prong approach provides extraordinary learning and networking opportunities for students.
Selected participants will receive:
Congressional Office or Federal Agency Internship Placement
Great Pay
- $3,750 stipend - Spring and Fall (Twelve Weeks)
- $2,500 stipend - Summer (Eight Weeks)
Benefits
- Domestic round-trip transportation to Washington, DC
- Housing (All Expenses Covered)
Academic Credit
- Interns may be eligible to receive academic credit at their college or university for participating in the program.
It is not mandatory to obtain academic credit to participate, however, CHCI encourages participants to research this possibility.
Leadership Training, Networking and More
Work Experience
After a week-long orientation, interns are assigned to either a congressional office or Federal Agency where they gain first-hand knowledge of how the U.S. legislative process works. Intern duties may include responding to constituent inquiries, drafting correspondence and memos, monitoring hearings, conducting research, data entry and analysis, support departmental meetings and telephone conferences and assisting with general office operations.
Leadership Development
Interns attend weekly sessions and meet with distinguished leaders from a range of professional backgrounds, engage in substantive policy discussions, and participate in professional development training. The sessions create an ideal forum for interns to share and exchange ideas with national leaders. Activities with other intern groups provide opportunities to learn coalition-building and an open dialogue on issues of mutual interest.
Community Service
Interns will also be required to engage in a CHCI community service project. This component of the curriculum broadens students’ personal experience with civic engagement and allows interns to give back to the community.
Program Requirements - Interns must
Work a minimum of 32 hours a week in congressional office assignment
Participate in all CHCI-sponsored activities
Attend one-week orientation and weekly leadership development sessions
Participate in the community service project
Comply with CHCI policies regarding work performance and personal conduct

Did the Secret Service do background checks on these “undocumented” persons????
Since his first priority is to defend the laws of this country, to actually use our taxpayer money to break the law instead of calling for the arrest of these illegals makes this an impeachable offense.
LOL
Another propaganda plot.
Obama is controlled like a sock puppet by Hollywood and other libs that successfully turned the black community inside out and into druggies and an anti-family culture, that now want to steal our 2nd Amendment rights, that push illegal immigration, push open borders and immigration from the world (since 1965), that inevitably want all average Americans in-fighting and in anarchy, while they plunder us. http://www.cnsnews.com/video/national/oreilly-americas-race-problem

I’ve never understood how the usurper passed the background check. Well, since he was never vetted by the Senate or GOP, there’s no reason to think the SS bothered checking anything on the Kenya.
“Note: Individuals who are seeking consideration under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival (DACA) policy must possess an Employment Authorization Document at the time of application”
So what is this Employment Authorization Document? Is this something Congress passed??? Are they considered illegal or not??? And if not, why is Obama bragging about being in the car with illegals?
He’s going to eat those words nobody can stop us now.
His party must pay the price for the damage they have caused.
Cowardly criminals always seek numbers and redistribution of the takings.
The only difference between a communist and a Nazi criminal is in the cowardice of the jackals vs. the wolf pack.
