Spanish Nets Panic About New Rules for Deportation of Repeat DUI Offenders (US Media)

Videos @ Source --------------- Immigrants with criminal records and multiple DUIs have new cheerleaders at the Spanish-speaking media that will go to any length to prevent their core audience from shrinking, as evidenced in Telemundo and Univision´s coverage of new DOJ rules regarding deportation.

In a scene that seemed to have come right out of a Better Call Saul promo instead of the evening news, Telemundo’s in-house immigration attorney dished out free legal advice regarding two new DOJ decisions on deportations involving undocumented immigrants with previous criminal convictions and for repeat DUI offenders.

Watch below as Telemundo’s immigration expert Alma Rosa Nieto theatrically delivers instructions on how illegal immigrants should act in the face of an arrest:

ALMA ROSA NIETO, TELEMUNDO IMMIGRATION ATTORNEY: Very important to get the advice of a criminal lawyer too, not to disqualify yourself, not to say in court 'I am guilty', no fighting because this could affect you in the future.

In the report, veteran Telemundo and NBC anchor José Díaz-Balart immediately cast a dark shadow at President Trump -not the repeat-offenders– as he opened the segment, by stating that Trump´s “Administration places even more obstacles on immigrants in their fight against deportation. Attorney General William Barr announced that the removal from the country of persons with previous criminal convictions will no longer be stopped, and that immigrants who have been sentenced for drunk driving will not be able to obtain legal status.”

These measures, as the anchor emphasized, “make it less and less possible for immigrants to defend their stay in the country.” Mea culpa, mea culpa.

The absolution, however, comes in the ´why´ behind the Department of Justice’s decision regarding repeat DUI offenders: two or more Driving Under the Influence sentences disqualify an undocumented immigrant from having “good moral character”, one of the requirements for naturalization. In layman's terms: behave well, you stay; break the law, you leave.

While Telemundo ignored this fact, Univision´s report on the William Barr decision did include another immigration attorney’s explanation of the good moral character clause. However, anchor Ilia Calderón and correspondent Vilma Tarazona resorted to blowing up the number of people it applies to (delinquents), claiming that “The decision….will affect hundreds of thousands of people”… “hundreds of thousands of immigrants.”

This video is a classic example of the “can´t-lose-our-audience” talk at Univision News:

ILIA CALDERÓN, ANCHOR, UNIVISIÓN: The decision limits the choices these immigrants have to defend themselves against deportation and will affect hundreds of thousands of people.

[...]

VILMA TARAZONA, CORRESPONDENT, UNIVISIÓN: …hundreds of thousands of immigrants.

Better to exaggerate than understate, or at least that appears to be the editorial line at Univision News. According to a Pew Research Center study, “among ICE arrestees in 2017 with prior convictions, the most common criminal conviction category was driving under the influence of alcohol (59,985 convictions, or 16% of the total). The number is high, but to say it is in the hundreds of thousands, that's another story.

The sad bottom-line of both reports is that, in their appeals, Telemundo and Univision reinforce the number one stigma they – and all of the liberal media -- so arduously “fight” against: That large numbers of undocumented Latino immigrants are violent. Below are the complete transcripts of the news reports, as aired on Noticias Telemundo on Thursday, October 29th, 2019 and Noticiero Univision on October 31, 2019, respectively (press Expand to view):

President Trump doesn’t understand that the true rulers of Mexico, the drug cartels, have bought American Democrat politicians fair and square.

The US government asked the Mexican government to interdict the son of El Chapo, who is the middleman for the China fentanyl pipeline into the United States.

The cartel outgunned the Mexican government.

There IS no "Mexican government" - only cartels. Who have bought all the US Democrat politicians along the southern border.

Schiff gets an annual salary from the Mexican drug cartels, and he EARNS his pay.

Not a Republican - I'm a conservative.

The Democrats are 100% bought by the cartels.

We're still not sure about the Repuke percentage.

"President Trump doesn’t understand that the true rulers of Mexico, the drug cartels, have bought American Democrat politicians fair and square."

That's the best explanation for dems unceasing and bizarre shenanigans against POTUS, and thier unending attempts to remove him from office.

Imagine many/most of our so-called "journalists" are bought and paid for by them (Drug cartels) too.

Note the date. He saw the problem we face today after 8 yrs as POTUS 200 yrs ago.

. . . anchor Ilia Calderón and correspondent Vilma Tarazona resorted to blowing up the number of people it applies to (delinquents), claiming that “The decision….will affect hundreds of thousands of people”… “hundreds of thousands of immigrants.”

This decision should not affect anyone. We should deport all illegals. No exceptions. Criminals should not profit from their crimes. However, I will take the best I can get. Deport the drunks and other criminals. It's a start.

Make it simple: self-deport or be shot dead on sight.

If you're here illegally you should be prosecuted,sentenced and then deported. The sentence,for a *first* offense,could be "suspended" with the understanding that if you're again found here illegally you serve the first sentence *on top of* additional sentences....that's consecutively,not concurrently.

If you commit anything even remotely resembling a serious crime while here legally...tourist visa,student visa,work visa or even a Green Card...you should be deported and banned from the country for life.

I would absolutely expect to be treated that way in a foreign country and absolutely demand that foreigners in the US be treated that way.

If not even *more* harshly.

We should deport ALL illegal aliens.
Why should we wait until they have a chance to harm or kill Americans before we remove them?

Do you see a "D" or an "R" anywhere in that quote? THINK!
