I told you this was coming. You know how people keep telling you that it's ridiculous to assert illegal aliens will be voting this year? It's not and Merrick Garland is going to make it happen. Eight million illegal aliens are poised to vote come November and Garland will be making sure they do. He promised to fight voter integrity laws all across the country. Speaking at a Selma church service to mark the anniversary of the attack by Alabama law officers on civil rights demonstrators, Garland recounted the history of voting rights since the end of slavery – a...

“Mr. President my name is Bruno Lozano, mayor of the city of Del Rio, Texas, and I am pleading and requesting with you to please put a halt to any measures regarding the release of immigrants awaiting court dates into the city of Del Rio and surrounding areas,” Lozano says as footage of empty store shelves and grocery store lines plays in the background. “We do not have the resources available to house and accommodate these migrants within our community… If you do send these individuals into our community, we will be forced to make a decision to leave them...

MCALLEN, Texas— Norma Leticia Ulloa Montoya was arrested after rafting across the Rio Grande with her sons and illegally entering the U.S. A day later, she was sent to federal court here, separated from her children, 9 and 6 years old.

You know what I admire about bigots? I’m referring to the real wackos, the warped, scary, neo-Nazi, open Klansman, proudly sign-their-name haters. You know what’s kinda great about them? At least they’re candid.

A TSA agent and 5 others were caught red-handed bringing Brazilian nationals across our border illegally: ... a group of Brazilian nationals were smuggled through the Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Díaz-Torres allegedly allowed the Brazilians through a TSA security checkpoint without questioning them. The group then flew to New York, Boston, and Philadelphia on commercial flights. The corruption is widespread and getting worse, ushering in not only illegals, but terrorists. An ‘event’ that rocks the US is not a matter of if, but when. We are essentially borderless with no real security protecting our...

On Friday, Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents arrested a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officer for allegedly "conspiring" to smuggle illegal immigrants into the country.

It’s going to take some politician’s kid getting killed by a drunken illegal alien before the hacks finally figure out that there’s a mighty big problem here. You know what happened in Milford on Saturday night. A totally smashed illegal from Ecuador is accused of running a stop sign and mowing down a 23-year-old American on a motorcycle, and then proceeding to drag him, screaming, under his truck for a quarter mile. When the illegal finally ran off the road, the American became disentangled. He was still alive. But then the illegal backed his truck back over him, according to...

EVERYONE’S QUICK to blame the alien,’’ said Aeschylus a couple of millennia ago, and you might lose your citizenship rights in Ancient Greece if you called an Athenean official a Scythian. Nativism and xenophobia had their uses in early societies when it was necessary for survival to keep the cohesion of clan, tribe, or city state. The to-be-feared “other’’ lived just over the next hill, and would be tempted to come in the night to plunder and rape unless the group stuck together. But a couple of millennia on, if there is anything to the concept of American exceptionalism, it...

The police chiefs of Minneapolis and St. Paul say a proposed state immigration bill modeled after Arizona's law would cause mistrust and have a "chilling effect" in immigrant communities. In a news release issued today, Minneapolis Police Chief Tim Dolan, outgoing St. Paul Police Chief John Harrington and incoming St. Paul chief Tom Smith say that local law enforcement officers should not have to be the primary enforcers of federal immigration laws. The chiefs say such a law would instill a culture of fear in immigrant communities and prevent crime victims and those with information about crimes from coming forward.

According to my sources, the Bush administration issued a 72-hour cease-and-desist order to all fugitive apprehension teams to spare Obama embarrassment over his Kenyan half-aunt, Zeituni Onyango.

When we immigrated from Jerusalem, Jordan* i n January, 1967, little did I imagine that Islam would become center-stage in world news. As my sincere interest in the growth of Islam in America intensified, I began to discuss, dialogue, and then debate Muslim leaders throughout the world from an Arab Christian's view of Islam. So far, I have had the privilege of participating in over 20 debates and discussions on every continent plus T.V. and radio. 'Islam Revealed' was released in 1988 and is now in its 8th printing. The True Furqan is now in its third printing in the...

For the second time in a week, Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee made a campaign stop in Alabama, this time visiting Huntsville, Montgomery and Tuscaloosa, where he spoke to a crowd of about 1,000 people at Open Door Baptist Church on Saturday. “We certainly want to be in Alabama as much as possible before Super Tuesday,” Huckabee said during a press conference after his speech. “We feel that the people of Alabama would feel more comfortable with a president who’s more like them,” he said. Huckabee, who spoke to more than 2,000 people at Samford University the Saturday before, was...

SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador – Cliques of the ultra-violent Latin American MS-13 gang have been identified in 42 U.S. states, according to the director of an FBI task force, speaking at a conference here. Another violent group, the 18th Street Gang, is in 37 states, said Brian Truchon, director of the FBI MS-13 National Gang Task Force, or NGTF. As WND reported, Truchon spoke at the Third Gang Enforcement Conference 2007 conference, which is focusing on MS-13.

U.S. Representative Tom Tancredo (R-CO) and 11 other Members of Congress today sent a letter to Secretary’s Michael Chertoff (DHS) and Alberto Gonzales (AG) asking the two cabinet members to pressure foreign governments to accept deportable aliens from the United States. “As you know, dozens of nations around the world routinely refuse to accept their own nationals when the attempts to repatriate them to their country of origin,” wrote Tancredo, member of the House International Relations Committee. “As a result, these aliens are free to remain in the .” The letter notes that the People’s Republic of has refused to...

Illegal immigrants meet little resistance getting home loans Marleny Carranza's cell phone plays salsa music when a call comes in, and these days it rings often. She and her sister Sandra Carranza are doing a brisk business selling homes to Hispanic immigrants, and they don't turn away people who may be in the country illegally. The Carranza sisters work with Su Casa Realty, a Century 21 franchise with an office in Hickory Hill. They are among many real estate professionals and bankers nationwide willing to sell houses to illegal immigrants. Giving home loans to illegal immigrants is a relatively safe...

Border security must be the first component of any immigration reform. We concur with the editors of National Review on this point; however, we also recognize that border-security measures alone can’t alleviate the pressure on our border. Only by meeting the demand for labor through a temporary-worker program coupled with enhanced border-security measures can we ensure national and economic security. Without a legal method to enter our country and work, foreigners will continue to slip across our southern border, remain unidentified, and drain the resources of our social infrastructure. In the years we have served in our respective houses of...

Quito, Jul 30 (EFE).- The Ecuadorian navy detained 114 emigrants headed for Guatemala and from there to the United States, the press reported Sunday. A navy vessel on routine patrol spotted the fishing boat Mi Esperanza on Saturday 54 nautical miles off the western port city of Manta, the El Comercio newspaper said.

The emigrants, 64 men, 32 women and 18 children, were mainly from southern Ecuador. The fishing...

SARASOTA, FL. (NS) - May the 1st is just around the corner and the big Latino Immigration Strike is on the horizon... Can we all just agree on one thing about our Borders and all the illegal immigrants coming across them??? That is that they ALL need to be documented and registered before they can legally work in America. Let's say they get a work permit that allows them to work in the United States for a period of 1 year, renewable only if they meet registration requirements and do not violate or Nation's Civil or Criminal laws while they're...
