On the eve of the South Carolina primary Breitbart dropped a scathing report on presidential candidate Marco Rubio.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Council President Chris Crane told Breitbart.com how Marco Rubio misled ICE officers on his Gang of 8 amnesty bill.

Rubot swings both ways!
Again?
I read the article, looked for a time frame. The best I could tell it must have been in 2012 or 2013. Shouldn’t we have heard about this before now? I am always concerned, regardless of the candidate, when a last minute bomb is dropped, which makes me question the accuracy and purpose. This accusation is important and if the ICE agents were treated in this manner it should have been just as important to the public then as it is the eve before a major primary.
Marco lined himself up with the worst of the worst during his gang of 8 push. Norquist and Cesar Conda were his enforcers.
Grover Norquist Attempting to Smear Anti-Amnesty Groups as Leftist Eugenicists

[snip]At the heart of the attack is the accusation that the leading members of some groups critical of immigration policy were or still are environmentalists and liberals. This attack piggybacks on earlier work by the Southern Poverty Law Center that used some of the same information to accuse those groups of being tied to Neo-Nazi and White Supremacist groups.
There’s something rather strange when “conservative sites” not only begin advocating for illegal alien amnesty, but begin repeating the claims that the Center for American Progress, Mother Jones and the Southern Poverty Law Center were making about anti-immigration groups 5-10 years ago.
The same Norquist tactics being used to attack the anti-immigration movement can and will be used to attack the Counterjihadist camp.
LOL, look at RubiOS flailing about desperately!
I just read that on Facebook.
I believe the ICE agent.
I believe every word he said both about the meeting with Rubio and his staffers and about how he was treated at the press conference.
Disgraceful.
This man should get out now.
Breitbart has been showing up in my timelines the last few weeks pretty consistently. Certainly more than other sources-their staff seems to be very involved and able to post multiple times per day.
I think they’ve really improved in quality and in breaking stories, and they don’t toe the line for the Establishment.
I can’t imagine why Rubio would not “credential” them, and for him to admit it, seems pretty immature and punitive.
Breitbart has been reporting this for a few weeks at least. The story didn’t break today. What’s different now is that Druge has it as his headline and that has Marco Amnestio squealing like a stuck pig.
Yes. We should ask Breitbart about the timing.
The prospect of this coming out may be the reason Rubio skipped the conference the other night.
Rubio skipped the Cruz Review conference because Levin is all in for Cruz. Duh.
This is not the first time I’ve heard about this.
You mean to talk tough when he habla ingles a los gringos and habla amnistia en espanol ala raza prima.
What Rubberio said was “its a conspiracy”. Damn, he finally told us the truth... about Gang of 8!
He did no refute the ICE claim one little bit.
Gotta be about Trump.
We heard about it before, just like we heard of the MANY slurs Rubio and his handlers used against all of us. Memories are short, sadly, which people like Rubio count on.
The story about Crane is backed up on the ICE website.
Breitbart reports: Senior Senate Staffer Reveals the Marco Rubio Story You’ve Never Heard
On today’s program of Breitbart News Daily, Donald Trump’s Senior Policy Adviser, Stephen Miller, shared his never-before publicly discussed insights into Sen. Marco Rubio’s duplicitous conduct during his push to get the Gang of Eight bill through the Senate.
At that time, Miller served as the communications director for the man who organized opposition to the bill, Senator Sen. Jeff Sessions. Miller recalled how throughout the Gang of Eight push, Sen. Rubio “directly deceived” immigration law enforcement and the American people.
Miller recounted one story in particular about Rubio’s treatment of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) union president Chris Crane, who represents thousands of ICE officers. At the time, Crane slammed Rubio for having “directly misled law enforcement.” In his Congressional testimony, Crane said, “Never before have I seen such contempt for law enforcement officers as what I’ve seen from the Gang of Eight.”
For the first time ever, Stephen Miller explained exactly what Rubio did to Chris Crane and how he had deceived the nation’s ICE officers.

And from 2013: ICE union president: Rubio ‘directly misled law enforcement’
“Senator Rubio left unchanged legislation that he himself admitted to us in private was detrimentally flawed and must be changed,” Crane said. “Legislation written behind closed doors by handpicked special interest groups which put their political agendas and financial gains before sound and effective law and the welfare and safety of the American public. As a result, the 1,200 page substitute bill before the Senate will provide instant legalization and a path to citizenship to gang members and other dangerous criminal aliens, and handcuff ICE officers from enforcing immigration laws in the future. It provides no means of effectively enforcing visa overstays which account for almost half of the nation’s illegal immigration crisis.”
Drudge has buried this until now because he didn’t want this story to help Cruz. He must have decided Rubio is the biggest threat to Trump at this point not Cruz.
Hundred bucks says Marco blew Jorge Ramos. And the ICE episode is further proof that it’s time for conservatives to give Rush Limbuck the boot. He has the judgment of a white middle class housewife who re!igiously watches The View.
Rubia says...I don’t want to talk about it but goes Fox to talk about it.
Got it.
George Thurgood and the Delaware Destroyers.
[snip]Put another way, if Marco Rubio becomes the President of the United States, the future of our republic depends on Rubio telling the truth this time after he already lied about the same thing to people who walked over broken glass to get him elected.
So now, are you ready to walk over broken glass to get Marco Rubio elected? Choose wisely because if Rubio becomes President and he's lying about immigration again, it will be the end of the road for conservatism in America.
