The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) has launched a six-figure TV advertising campaign in South Carolina, in advance of the state's upcoming presidential primary.
The anti-illegal immigration group's TV ad argues that the cliché call to "bring illegal immigrants out of the shadows" should be applied to Americans who have been hurt by illegal immigrants.
"For years, Americans have been told that we need to bring illegal aliens out of the shadows. Here's a better idea. Bring Americans victimized by immigration out of the shadows," Dan Stein, the president of FAIR, says in the ad.
The television commercial was launched Tuesday and will play in all the major markets in South Carolina "hundreds of times" over the coming two weeks, according to FAIR.
"Here's a better idea," Stein continues in the ad. "Bring Americans out of the shadows. The millions who lost jobs to foreign workers, the victims of crime thanks to broken borders, American kids whose places in college were taken by illegal aliens. It's time for Americans to come out of the shadows and speak up."
The ad will air in South Carolina as the presidential candidates make their play for the state's delegates. The Republican presidential primary in the Palmetto State is February 20 and February 27 for the Democratic presidential primary.

I wish they would add the word “illegal” in front of immigration. That’s really the crux of the matter for me.
I LIKE it.
Illegal immigration isn’t the only immigration that’s hurting this country.
That ad is goning to Give Nikki Haley and Linda Grahamnasty the vapors.

Donald Trump, Ted Cruz - think at about it!
“Donald Trump, Ted Cruz - think at about it!”
Oh, I did.
But what did the candidates have to say when they announced their run for presidency?
Here is their (Trump, Cruz, Rubio) total remarks on IMMIGRATION...later we will do trade and terrorism.
Trump June 16 , 2015
When do we beat Mexico at the border? They’re laughing at us, at our stupidity. And now they are beating us economically. They are not our friend, believe me. But they’re killing us economically.
The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else’s problems. (APPLAUSE)
Thank you. It’s true, and these are the best and the finest. When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.
But I speak to border guards and they tell us what we’re getting. And it only makes common sense. It only makes common sense. They’re sending us not the right people.
It’s coming from more than Mexico. It’s coming from all over South and Latin America, and it’s coming probably — probably — from the Middle East. But we don’t know. Because we have no protection and we have no competence, we don’t know what’s happening. And it’s got to stop and it’s got to stop fast. (APPLAUSE)
I will immediately terminate President Obama’s illegal executive order on immigration, immediately. (APPLAUSE)
I would build a great wall, and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me, and I’ll build them very inexpensively, I will build a great, great wall on our southern border. And I will have Mexico pay for that wall.
He’s weak on immigration. He’s in favor of Common Core. How the hell can you vote for this guy? You just can’t do it. We have to end — education has to be local.
When do we beat Mexico at the border? They’re laughing at us, at our stupidity. And now they are beating us economically. They are not our friend, believe me. But they’re killing us economically.

Cruz Mar. 23, 2015
Instead of the lawlessness and the president’s unconstitutional executive amnesty, imagine a president that finally, finally, finally secures the borders. (APPLAUSE)
And imagine a legal immigration system that welcomes and celebrates those who come to achieve the American dream.

(Cruz’s speech was all about him and your imagination!)
Marco Rubio April 13, 2015
“modernize our immigration laws”
Yep...THAT is it....except for this..
En este pais, ustedes van a poder lograr todas las cosas que nosotros no pudimos.
“In this country, you will achieve all the things we never could.”

No, its the high bar allowed for h1bs as well. Theyre cheaper and easier to manipulate....and fire when someone cheaper comes around.
Circumventing Mitch McConnell's power would be absolutely delicious to watch.
Exactly.
Ping please!
I’m acutely aware that Trump and Cruz have made strong statements regarding illegal aliens. What I am suggesting is that they start making it a part of their campaigns to let people speak about the tragedies illegal aliens have brought to their lives. Get this fight started, and make the Democrats and liberal media defend the criminals.
Yikes!
That lady has a persuadable voice on her. I’m actually glad we don’t have to go up against that.
Do you mean this ad?

Barbara Jordon is not just talking about illegal immigration,
she is talking about all immigration.
If there are not enough jobs available for the current population,
then why do we import more people?
If the current population are not trained for the jobs available,
then why don’t we train them?
It would be great to see Trump suggest something, and McConnel drag his feet and have Trump go around him and get it done anyway.
” What I am suggesting is that they start making it a part of their campaigns to let people speak about the tragedies illegal aliens have brought to their lives.”
Have you watched Trump rallies? He’s done this many times, including inviting the families of victims on stage to display the quilt of fallen lives. Jamiel Shaws father appears with Trump quite often. He is the ONLY candidate to ever acknowledge them.
Standing with Jamiel Shaw, Sabine Durdin, Don Rosenberg, Lupe Moreno, Brenda Sparks, Robin Hvidston & their spouses.
“During Friday’s event, five people who said their loved ones were killed by undocumented immigrants stood with Trump.
They held up pictures with details of their deceased family members, saying the United States’ immigration system allowed the assailants to enter the country illegally, and then got away with little to no jail time.
“All I was hearing was ‘Well, these people work, they contribute, they have to take their kids to school,’” said Don Rosenberg, whose son was fatally hit by a car driven by an undocumented immigrant.
“Like that was a reason that it was okay that they killed people.”
The family members standing with Trump said that he was the only presidential candidate speaking out against illegal immigration.
“All Republicans that are running for office right now, they were going to bamboozle us, because they wanted us to think that they were going to enforce the border,” said Jamiel Shaw, whose son was shot to death by an undocumented immigrant.
“As soon as Mr. Trump started speaking, you see how all of them were trying to criticize him. That means they were going to do nothing.”
Listen to the heartfelt Trump as he met with the victims!
EVERY AMERICAN NEEDS TO SEE THIS! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsokVoqSOA8
Don’t miss this great interview with our friend, Mr. Jamiel Shaw Sr!

Obviously, I haven’t been watching Trump rallies. Thank you though.
WHISTLEBLOWER: I Was Ordered to DELETE Records Of Muslim Migrants With TERROR Ties
By Brendan February 8, 2016
]snip] From Newsmax:
A veteran official with the Department of Homeland Security claims he and other staff were ordered to destroy records on a federal database that showed links between possible jihadists and Islamic terrorist groups.
“After leaving my 15-year career at DHS, I can no longer be silent about the dangerous state of America’s counter-terror strategy, our leaders’ willingness to compromise the security of citizens for the ideological rigidity of political correctness—and, consequently, our vulnerability to devastating, mass-casualty attack,” the former employee, Patrick Haney, wrote in an explosive column that was published late Friday on The Hill website.
Haney alleges that the Obama administration has been “engaged in a bureaucratic effort” to destroy the raw material and intelligence the Department of Homeland Security has been collecting for years, leaving the United States open to mass-casualty attacks.
His story starts in 2009, when during the holiday travel season, a 23-year-old Nigerian Muslim, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, boarded Northwest Airlines Flight 253, with explosives packed in his underwear and the hopes of slaughtering 290 travelers flying on Christmas Day from the Netherlands to Detroit, Michigan. Passengers subdued the jihadist and he was arrested, thwarting the plot.
After the attempt, Haney writes, President Barack Obama “threw the intelligence community under the bus for its failure to ‘connect the dots,’ saying that it was not a failure to collect the intelligence that could have stopped the attack, but rather “’a failure to integrate and understand the intelligence that we already had.’”
But most Americans were not aware that the Department of Homeland Security’s employees suffered enormous damage to their morale from Obama’s words, Haney said.
Further, many were infuriated “because we knew his administration had been engaged in a bureaucratic effort to destroy the raw material — the actual intelligence we had collected for years, and erase those dots. The dots constitute the intelligence needed to keep Americans safe, and the Obama administration was ordering they be wiped away.”
Just one month before the attempted attack, Haney said, his DHS supervisors ordered him to either delete or modify the records for several hundred people tied to Islamist terror organizations, including Hamas, from the Treasury Enforcement Communications System, the federal database
...out of the shadows and I to the paddy wagons.
A criminal advocacy group? Well, I agree with their ad. Let’s bring illegals out of their shadows into detention centers and then ship them to Mexico.
