Tens of thousands of young families caught crossing the border illegally earlier this year subsequently failed to meet with federal immigration agents, as they were instructed, the Homeland Security Department has acknowledged privately.

An official with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement revealed that about 70 percent of immigrant families the Obama administration had released into the U.S. never showed up weeks later for follow up appointments.

The ICE official made the disclosure in a confidential meeting at its Washington headquarters with immigration advocates participating in a federal working group on detention and enforcement policies. The Associated Press obtained an audio recording of Wednesday's meeting and separately interviewed participants.

If they don’t show up, how are they going to vote? /S

That’s “Phase 2” of the program.

Says 70% of “families”....and that means more than one person...so reality says...likely 90-95% never came back.

It was the plan from the beginning to spread them out so that they couldn’t be easily found.

You really want to get ticked off, find out how many ICE agents are assigned to your town or city and what their hours are...

How will they vote? Well one doesn’t need an ID or proof of anything in some states...and if amnesty goes through, they just plain go and vote. Sad isn’t it?

Which is why RICO needs to be applied here. That bit alone qualifies it.

I doubt the number is that high. I’d bet its nearer to 90 % but if the number is true it’s only because they are currently being housed in our Welcome Centers and are currently being detained by us.

So what happens to the 30% that DO show up?

Are any deported? If so, about how many, or what percent?

If some of this 30% are NOT deported, where are they held? Or released?

The 30% who do show up should be immediately deported.

They are obviously the slow witted 30% who haven’t grasped the way the Obama government wants them to conduct themselves.
