......................“If the United States was being attacked in one of our water ports on the East or West Coast,we’d be sending in our military forces, and yet we’re facing some of the same challenges with international criminal organizations,the cartels that are trafficking not only drugs but weapons and humans and we need to step up and be aggressive,” he explained. “That means securing the border with infrastructure, with technology,with personnel and the federal government’s got to lead the way. We can’t expect the border states to do this alone. The federal government needs to step up and act.”
The most impressive part of Walker’s answer came at the end,where he didn’t just leave the issue at border security—he said that’s just step one,but after that’s completed there needs to an immigration policy that serves the national interest and protects American workers from cheap foreign labor that forces like the Chamber of Commerce,major labor unions,and other elitists are pushing for. He used language that sounds like it came from Sen. Jeff Sessions(R-AL), the immigration populist who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee’s subcommittee on Immigration and the National Interest—and specifically noted that wages of “American workers” must be protected.
“You can’t be talking about anything else until you do that,” Walker said. “Once you do that you can then we can talk about enforcing the laws by using an effective e-verify system for all employers,one that works for small businesses,farmers,and ranchers and making sure that any legal immigration,no amnesty, any legal immigration system we go forward with is one that ultimately has to protect American workers and make sure American wages are going up. That’s the way we prosper for every hard working American in this country.”
...If Walker stays on this path, it could mean bad news for the rest of the GOP field.

You can talk about that then you can talk about the other thing
Talk talk talk
As reported, it sounds flawed. E-verify is an implementable first-ever. Perhaps he only read the Jeff Sessions cheat sheet and doesn’t really have it in his bones?
WAlker talks about border security on Hannity.
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
How about standing up to the corporate elites who want Amnesty, Common Core, Obamacare and persecution of conservative religious people?
Ted Cruz denounced the “Fortune 500” for opposing religious freedom.
The most fundamental responsibility of a nation’s government is to secure its borders. Our southern border is a joke existing only on maps. We are under invasion. The invading army does not even need weapons.
And what is that “legal immigration system” you want us to “go forward with” Governor Walker?
Specification is something politicians typically avoid with obfuscation.
It is not the cartels who have initiated this human trafficking. They are just the catspaws of much more malignant forces. It is the DC Uniparty and their crony capitalist paymasters who call the tune. This toxic union of human trafficking for profit and for political purposes seeks nothing less than wholesale demographic replacement of a noncompliant and, therefore, inconvenient population. It is nothing short of planned democide.
Forget E-verify.
Change the law. Make it a felony to be in the US illegally
Give them 90 days to get their affairs in order and leave the US with their anchor babies in tow. If you are caught in the US after that 90 days or 180 days you will be deported and prohibited from ever entering the US again, legally or otherwise. If you are found here illegally again, is a capital crime.
You militarize the border with 100,000 troops. Tijuana to Matamoros. Orders are: shoot to kill anyone or anything headed north. Create clear lanes for those headed south.
What a joke—Walker’s been advocating not just legalization, but eventual citizenship for years. What’s more, he’s said he’d make it so easy for anyone from any country who wants to come here legally do so that there’d be no reason for anyone to bother trying to cross the border illegally.
The fraud can’t claim with a straight face that he’s about protecting the American worker in the least.
We are both ultra-right-wingers I have no doubt. But the steps have to be palatable to the general public. What could be more fair and easy than simply trusting but e-verifying?
Well, yes. If talk matters, those are the ones to whom they need to go.
...and yet Walker has “closed door” meetings with Chamber of Commerce whores.
Walker, like obamatollah, is a liar and cannot be trusted.
You trust a flip flopper who is heavily funded by the pro-amnesty crowd?
He’s there simply offering the old GOPe argument that if you make illegals here currently visit their home countries on holiday and then subsequently wait for a while before their legal status gets turned into citizenship that’s somehow ‘amnesty’. A fake and deceptive, insulting, fig leaf of politico blather.
Yes. I am happy that he is seeing the “light’ and may realize how intensely Americans are feeling on this issue. just wish he had gotten it earlier.
Give them 90 days to get out... Then give employers 90 days to replace them or THEY go to jail for having illegals. No e-verify confirmation? Your charged.
Lot fewer employers to deal with than illegal invaders. Dry the job supply up and cut off the welfare for flunking e-verify and they will go home.
ya, he is seeing the light alright... The light at the end of the tunnel being turned off if he does not flip/flop...
The wrong money is behind him for me to believe him.
At a minimum, we should start with making being here illegally an “A” felony, subject to deportation and permanent status as persona non grata.
