There are things that make me wonder about this also............
A personal "Houston, we may have a problem" moment came for me after one of the media outlets did a report on Special Interest Alien's or "SIA's". (There was a big stink about the report because the news outlet filmed them in a bus station as they were waiting to be bused out to "parts unknown"). I live in an "off the beaten path" where things are pretty much the "same old, same old", but shortly after that report, I ran into a burka clad woman shopping in our grocery store and a man (I guessed her companion) doing prayers in the parking lot as I came out. Assuming they were travelers headed someplace else, I didn't think much more about it except it was my "first" live burka sighting. A few days later, at a convenience store, sat a CHARTER BUS full of men and burka clad women, which made me start thinking about that media story and Special Interest Aliens.
"Red flag"?.......the Govt stopped publicly reporting Special Interest Alien's (SIA's) numbers in their agencies quarterlies. (I had watched those numbers during the Bush administration and now it's like unaccompanied children are the only illegals that are crossing the borders).
"Red flag"?....members of the Border Patrol were trying to warn Americans about SIA's, Cartel members, etc. and the Obama Admin came down on them like a ton of bricks for "talking".... and promised serious repercussions for anyone that continued to do so.
"Red flag"?.... Gov Perry, (and Gov Abbott after him), began warning people that terrorists might be coming across the open border because they were seeing increased numbers of SIA's. These guys are NOT anti-illegals by ANY means, so I believed they were seeing something dangerous unfolding in Texas...but the media and Washington talked them down like they were just "dumb hicks" that didn't know anything.
"Red flag"?.........The Federal Government continues to tell State's Governors that they have no right to know WHO, HOW MANY or Where illegal aliens, (AND refugees), are being hidden in their states. Makes a person wonder what this Administration is trying to hide.
Charter bus. That reminds me - during the past couple of months I’ve seen a Greyhound bus or two with Texas plates on I-94 west of Ann Arbor Michigan, heading toward Detroit. Couldn’t see if it was loaded or not - but I haven’t seen a GH bus in years, and now it seems they’re back in business. First thing that came to mind was they’re moving “refugees”.
All this is true. I used to work in the Rio Grande Valley off and on during the year. The were lots of stories in the local media about the OTM’s. (Muslims and Chinese). LOTS of them crossing the southern border. Interesting that none of that news gets out of the valley. NEVER saw any of this info in the news north of the federal checkpoints.
