Tucker Carlson in a recent show announced that despite the current belief held by many if not most people in the U.S., illegals CAN vote in U.S. elections. True the Vote discovered this anomaly in the U.S. code apparently, but is this really true? Here is the U.S. code referenced and spoken of by Tucker and True the Vote founder Catherine Engelbrecht:

SAN DIEGO – U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials temporarily suspended all northbound and southbound crossings for both pedestrians and vehicles at the San Ysidro port of entry at about 11:30 a.m. Sunday morning.  As of 2 p.m., operations have not resumed. In preparation for multiple planned demonstrations on both sides of the border, CBP had deployed additional personnel to the San Ysidro port of entry on Sunday.  As the demonstrations on the Mexican side reached the border area, some members of the demonstration split off to head towards multiple locations along the border.  Some attempted to enter the U.S....

The top U.S. general overseeing a deployment of more than 5,200 troops to the border with Mexico said on Tuesday that troop levels would rise further, but declined to say how high or estimate what the operation will cost. Many basic questions remained unanswered a day after the Pentagon announced the open-ended deployment of over 5,200 active-duty troops to the border, including the scope of the mission as well as the Pentagon’s assessment of any threat posed by arriving migrants.

International officials with the United Nations (UN) Refugee Agency say President Trump must allow a caravan of Central Americans into the United States to seek asylum. As Breitbart News has chronicled, migrants with an at least 7,000-strong have repeatedly admitted they are traveling to the U.S. to seek jobs, re-enter as previously deported illegal aliens, and flee crime. One previously deported illegal alien even admitted he was convicted of attempted murder in the U.S. None of these cases are eligible asylum claims. The UN Refugee Agency, though, is commanding Trump to accept the caravan of refugees, which some estimates put...

A chilling video of Maryland police silencing an innocent student who was recording the arrests of two other people has civil libertarians outraged. The arrests were made at night on the streets of Towson, Maryland. A University of Maryland-Baltimore County student who witnessed the arrests decided to record them using his cell phone. The student, 21-year-old Sergio Gutierrez, was soon approached by officers who objected — wrongly — to his actions. Gutierrez repeatedly told the officers that he knew he had the right to film them, but the cops were prepared to use any excuse to shut him down. First...

'snip'.....Tancredo created a buzz of his own. He got enough standing ovations from hard-core conservative Iowa voters that it should worry any top-tier presidential hopefuls who thought they could get through 2008 without touching the immigration hot-button.Tancredo has visited New Hampshire and now Iowa, seeing how his hard line against illegal immigration plays in the two early presedential primary states. He's testing the waters for a possible presedential run of his own, but his real goal is to turn his pet issue into something akin to abortion in past campaigns - a big deal that nobody is allowed to ignore.Even...
