Immigration: When California Gov. Jerry Brown hung out the "all welcome" sign for illegals, Mexico's drug cartels heard him loud and clear. Raids on Thursday left lawmen declaring Los Angeles a cash-laundering mecca. Roping off 100 blocks of downtown Los Angeles this week, federal agents from the U.S. attorney's office raided roughly 70 garment district businesses along with a few houses in tony Westwood and Beverly Hills. The suspected crime was laundering money for Mexico's Sinaloa cartel. Agents hauled out $65 million in cash stuffed in duffel bags, suitcases and boxes, some of it blood-spattered. The cash came from hostage ransoms, drug sales and alien-smuggling fees. Some of those arrested were charged with "various immigration offenses," according to the affidavit.

Yes, he is slime. But he, like the PimpPrez, couldn't have done it alone. They had LOTS and LOTS and LOTS and LOTS and LOTS and LOTS and LOTS and LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of help for those MORONS who elected and re-elected these Democrats.
SO, it seems that TOO many Americans have a death wish. They elect and RE-ELECT people who would DESTROY us.
Am I wrong?
Where is Eric Holder? Shouldn’t
he be here addressing this blatantly racist activity?
That’s was I was thinking too. They can’t get rid of them, this is their only viable tax base right now.
This drug cartel was getting a little too greedy. Apparently they “forgot” to pay their share to the desinated Fed sponsored drug laundering bank. The bank gets the money and the Feds gets their cut.
No. Not wrong. These red-diaper babies, became part of the establishment, per Alinsky. Well done, actually. The ensuing permissive social environment allowed- gov’t unions. The downfall of our primary to college education system/control, has birthed these voting trends- and the ascension of garrulously anti-republic politicos. Basically, gangsters.
Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
Cue Ferguson style rioting and looting.
the old man is a complete loon
Yep. He hasn’t changed a bit!
$65 million keeps the state running for 5 minutes?
The money leaving has always been greater, by under-the -table employment than, your drug theory. Yes, drugs are a big incentive, only by loose restrictions to access of the US. The slave market is many times greater.
How nice for all those girls and women--slavery. :o(
God help them.
As long as democrats get their votes they don’t care whether countries or states or anything else are destroyed in the process.
He thinks he is a Roman Consul. Just like in rome of old, the conquered regions had no right of representation in the Roman Senate, only the incestuous little pig children of Roman officials got titles to run regions that they used.
This is the Democrat Nero mentality. They could care less.
Men and boys, also. Even more so. The underground economy is vast, by labor trade alone.
He has also released 40,000 criminals from state prison.
They are in the process of robbing, raping and killing.
You're thinking about the 1970’s.
In 2014, nationally, the Gringos are just 62% of all Americans.
In California and New Mexico, just 39%.
In Texas, just 44%.
Rand Paul's immigration speech...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.[Posted on 03/19/2013 7:04:07 AM PDT by Perdogg]
Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.
Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.
Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.
If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...
This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.
Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.
Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reformLatinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow...

$65 million in cash was found. But hey, they were only laundering the money that Americans won’t launder.
Rope off the entire state of Cali, then see some real results. We could end poverty in Cali; .....
