Schumer Demands Immigration and Customs Enforcement Release Information About Raids
U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer ^ | 2/13/2017 | U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer

Posted on 02/13/2017 3:26:01 PM PST by mdittmar

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer released the following statement demanding that immigration and customs enforcement (ICE) release information about the raids that happened this past week:

"Reports that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) targeted non-violent immigrant families over the past week are deeply disturbing. Undocumented immigrants live in fear, and they are confused and scared.“

“I am troubled by the lack of transparency and potential due process violations surrounding ICE’s most recent enforcement actions. That is why I’m calling on ICE to release information about the location of the raids and details of the people who were arrested.”

“Targeting law-abiding innocent immigrant families whose only wrongdoing was crossing the border to give their children a better life, instead of focusing on removing those who have been convicted of violent crimes, is a waste of limited resources and undermines law enforcement in communities across the country. ICE must come clean.”

“I have always supported smart immigration enforcement that helps to keep our country safe, but raids targeting law-abiding immigrants and treating those with traffic violations the same as murderers and robbers will only achieve the opposite.”‎

Horrifyingly, all four GOP gang of eight members won primaries against respectable challengers and then won re-election. Opposition to amnesty among GOP voters is a mile wide and an inch deep. It’s just not an important issue to most of them. Maybe that has changed, but until one of the gang of eight loses office, we can’t say it has.

The biggest problem Trump is going to have is that he has almost no foot soldiers in Washington. It’s highly unusual to have a dissident at the top of a government with no base in lower levels of office.

Usually, you are not going to have a radical or reformist head of state until after there is a big parliamentary block with the same political orientation.

Tough sh#t. They are in the country illegally. They have been getting a pass for 30 years but now there’s a new sheriff who is going to enforce the laws duly enacted by Congress.

Well, Chuckie...they're not lawabiding if they illegally crossed the border now are they?

I honestly can’t think of any Republicans who have consistently acted so arrogantly and made such conspicuous asses of themselves as have people like Schumer and Warren.

Almost all incumbents win. I think if Trump had made a push for some challengers (eg Kelli Ward) maybe there would have been a different outcome.

I would not discount vote fraud (machines) either.

(Illegal alien checkpoint ahead)

Place the signs right before a right hand intersection and have a massive force of agents ready and waiting.

Forgot to mention, I agree with you about illegals not being an important issue. The moment many folks have to spend a nickel more for Made in America or Illegals-free labor, it becomes someone else’s problem to solve.

Double that:

TELL SCHUMER NOTHING .. HE IS NOT PART OF THE ADMIN, AND THEREFORE, HE’S NOT ENTITLED TO KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE RAIDS.

These “entitled” DemocRATS are really getting tiresome.

It comes in the form of the drug pusher, the drug mule, the drug cartel operative.

Was talkin to friend today whose husband works in an ER. He is said the heroin problems is through the roof. He carries Narcan on his person everyday. And they live in part of the county that is not urban but rural. How many people will the ruling elites allow to die?

You know the difference between undocumented immigrants and law-abiding immigrants! Stop trying to make them out to be the same thing because it’s unbecoming of you as a sitting Senator.
And you look foolish doing it too.

And, as a Freeper, you should be noting these are illegal aliens (criminals) *NOT* undocumented XYZ.

Why follow the left into their own lexicon game? Their game, their rules and one will lose it EVERY TIME one tries to go up against it (they are not ‘liberal’, they are Socialist, not ‘progressive’ but Fascist, mis-spoke = lie, federal funding = taxpayer $$, etc.)

The response should be just a copy of the LAW that Authorizes them to DEPORT ILLEGAL ALIENS!
