NJ Governor Phil Murphy, Wife Implicated in Federal Immigration Fraud Scheme
Shore News ^ | February 13, 2021 | Robert Walker

TRENTON, NJ – It’s no secret that New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy wants open borders, sanctuary and equal, if not more rights for illegal aliens in his state, but just how far the Governor and his wife Tammy will go to violate U.S. immigration law to provide those opportunities is now being questioned.

The Murphys are the owners of the Sky Blue FC professional women’s soccer team and in the past have been accused of mistreatment of players. Now, they are being accused of being part of a wide-scale immigration fraud scheme by the Department of Justice.

On Friday, the former Chief Operating Officer of Global Premier Soccer (GPS), a now-defunct youth soccer organization formerly based in Waltham, Mass., was charged today in connection with a wide-ranging visa fraud conspiracy.

Justin Capell, 39, of Southborough, Mass., was charged and has agreed to plead guilty to conspiracy to commit visa fraud. A plea hearing has not yet been scheduled by the court.

Capell, feds charge and his co-conspirators arranged to file fraudulent visa petitions on behalf of at least seven professional soccer teams in order to secure visas for GPS’s foreign coaching staff. One of those teams was Murphy’s Sky Blue FC.

A Rhode Island news site, Golocalprov released emails that directly implicate Murphy and his wife Tammy in the fraudulent immigration scheme.

Phil Murphy throughout the pandemic has been known as a “rules for thee and not for me” governor after skirting his own executive orders on several occasions, but his involvement in this evolving federal immigration fraud crime takes things to a whole new level.

Below is a release issued by the U.S. Department of Justice on the arrest and investigation.

Now THAT's how it's done. You flip one, you get the plea, and then you showboat.

Now watch him withdraw his plea lol...

Cuomo? Now this?

Maybe the Dems are clearing out some of their folks that are in bad odors to clear the way for ‘untainted’ politicians. Forced retirements - here is your gold watch. Scram! Or we can do this the hard way...

Curious. In one-party states and cities (like New Jersey, Philadelphia) it's common to see democrats find themselves in a scandal as other democrats try to destroy their competition for the next big election. They don't worry about the republicans so they pile on each other.

I have assumed this Cuomo stuff was one of those food fights where he's being made radioactive for 2024 (i.e. Harris / Obama behind it). I have no ideal why they'd do that to Phil Murphy, he's no threat to anyone. Arrogant dope, utterly unlikable, and no record of success in COVID or otherwise. And yet the Biden DOJ goes after him? Weird.

Agree. Strange, not the way the DOJ normally operates.

Democrats have gotten sloppy because they know the media will cover for them. But the Kingmakers can make new kings. Kamala Harris will sell more newspapers than Joe Biden so if Joe has to go, they can make it happen.

First of all, this is NJ, so Phil "The Bill of Rights is above my pay grade" Murphy has a looooooong way to go to be even notably corrupt.

Second, he's a democrat, and therefore, regardless of how corrupt he is, he will pay no real price for any of it (see Robert Torricelli and Jon Corzine, among others, for reference).

I don’t know who he is, but the reason they haven’t arrested him is that he is probably a Democrat.

Ok, so USDA Lelling, who also oversaw Operation Varsity Blues, doesn't actually effectively "resign" per the Xiden ask until February 28. So he went ahead and pulled the finger to keep his successor from burying it.

Yet it must have been known to Murphy they were coming for him:

In May 2020, Gavin MacPhee, a former GPS employee, pleaded guilty to destroying records in connection with this investigation.
Lelling would be a good candidate to succeed Baker or even better, upset that beer-soaked bitch Warren in 2024
