As expected, the Lawfare ideologues have weaponized the legal system to grant special visa status to the illegal aliens flown to Martha’s Vineyard by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. The aliens have been granted lawful U.S. residency status via “U VISA’s” reserved for victims of crimes.
Their applications as criminally trafficked victims come as the result of Texas Sherriff Javier Salazar certifying they were victims of an illegal human trafficking operation led by the Florida governor. As an outcome, Ron DeSantis is under investigation by federal authorities and Texas authorities for violations of human trafficking laws.
[Picture Source – With More Detail]
The federal government, U.S. Treasury Dept, has an open investigation into the funds used by DeSantis to conduct the transfer operation. “Documents indicate Florida officials paid Destin, Fla.-based Vertol Systems Co. $1.56 million for the Martha’s Vineyard flight and possibly for a flight to Delaware, the home state of President Joe Biden, that ultimately didn’t happen.” [link] Meanwhile Texas Sheriff Salazar is conducting a criminal investigation for human trafficking.
The 50 aliens have essentially been designated as victims and received the special VISA’s protecting them from extradition. They are now considered witnesses for use by the Treasury investigation and Texas criminal probe.
WASHINGTON DC – Texas Sheriff Javier Salazar on Thursday certified that the group of migrants flown to Martha’s Vineyard, Mass., last month by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) were victims of a crime, qualifying them to obtain a visa.
Salazar, the Bexar County sheriff, submitted certification documents that will allow the nearly 50 migrants to apply for U visas, which grant crime victims nonimmigrant status in the U.S. to ensure that they are available as witnesses during investigations or trials.
“Based upon the claims of migrants being transported from Bexar County under false pretenses, we are investigating this case as possible Unlawful Restraint,” Salazar said in a statement to GBH News.
The Venezuelan nationals transported to Martha’s Vineyard were reportedly given false information about where they were going and the support they would receive at the destination.
The certification comes a day after the Department of the Treasury announced that it would investigate DeSantis’s usage of COVID-19 relief money and the “allowability” of funding migrant transportation with that money or interest earned on it. (read more)
It was obvious from shortly after the first wave of aliens was transferred from Texas to Martha’s Vineyard that progressive Lawfare operatives had found an angle to use the transfers as a targeting mechanism against Governor Ron DeSantis. That’s likely why the second set of flights to Delaware never took place.
RINOs got zapped.
That’s a good thing, but as a logical conclusion of determining the illegals are victims of crime, it proves that that the human trafficking in which they are participants – willing or not – is indeed a crime. And that Biden is not faithfully insuring that laws against said crime are being upheld. Oh, looky-here: an impeachable offense.
Neocons dreamed up a foolproof publicity stunt for their new boy, DeSantis. He just goes along for the ride.
Go to Texas to recruit illegals?
Dude, you’re the governor of Florida, didn’t it occur to you that maybe you should focus on Florida?
Are there no illegals in Florida? Couldn’t you just bus illegals from Florida to DC, or somewhere?
There are more Illegals here than you could shake a stick at.
And how many have $paid$ the cartel … to traffic them to America? Aren’t they ALL “crime victims”? And let me guess … the government will compensate EVERY illegal immigrant “victim” of crime.
They all owe the Cartel. The Mexican/Central American men used to pay off their debts by being runners for dial up drug delivery services and the girls and boys were sent to brothels to pay their passage. All of this was leveraged by threat of violence to their families back home. Watch National Geographic “Drugs, Inc.” if you have the stomach to pay for a Disney product. I have no idea what they are getting per head nowadays. Maybe Soros pays the Cartels directly.
Bingo. I wondered about that too. Why in the world would DeSantis be concerned with illegal invaders in Texas ?
As you mentioned he should have been concerned with his own back yard.
It seems as though DeSantis fell right into a trap. Now, these “investigations”are going to follow him into the foreseeable future. The foreseeable future most likely being the next 5 to 6 years, given the DemocRATS propensity to drag things out as they “never let a crisis go to waste.”
DeSantis said in a presser I believe that these illegals were scheduled to be sent to FL by authorities in TX so RD sent them right on by FL and up to Martha’s Vineyard. Not sure if that’s correct but I do remember reading it.
Tx has not sent illegals to Fl, nor would I expect them to.
I remember a while back that buses carrying illegals were coming into Florida. Where were they coming from? Certainly not directly from Venezuela.
I remember seeing reports of the busloads arriving in Florida. Video of the underage children being secretely flown in under the darkness of night, as well.
Weird the ‘good’sheriff hasn’t been all been concerned and stuff, about all the child sex trafficking going on under his watch. Maybe someone needs to be looking into his role in all of this.
Believe me, Salazar is hip – deep in it.
Huh??
Thanks Cjzak.
actually he flew them to a layover in FL then on to MV
Blame the victim (of LAWFARE).
A real “astroturfed” stunt. Not exactly organic grass roots type move …
Martha’s Vineyard local calls on Obamas to open their $12M home to migrants
https://nypost.com/2022/09/16/marthas-vineyard-local-obamas-should-house-migrants/
Illegal aliens not migrants
will DeSantis finally be the first one to force the hand of an illegitimate government? Every time Trump or a gun company or any other responds to lawfare, we implicitly acknowledge that this government has the authority to do so.
It does not. this government is illegitimate.
Not only should desantis refuse to cooperate or comply with any investigation, he should not even hire lawyers to fight it in court, don’t show up, don’t recognize their authority, eject any member of fedgov that is participating in the “investigation” from the state, don’t do anything to give them press. Just tell the fed fascists to FOAD, post guards to protect him from any attempt to force their way into his space, and if they do, let come what may.
Its way past time. who will finally be the brave one to make this point?
actually FL state police need to arrest errant feds sooner
I’m also interested what TX Gov Abbott says/does too since the San Antonio Dem marx machine is butting in.
Several States should consider this an act of war. Florida and Texas must lead the way against a rogue Federal Government.
The Feds abandoned the field at El Paso and Yuma et al.—human trafficking in the millions (an invasion) takes an incredible toll especially on the border States and it’s citizens. The Feds imbue citizen status upon the few they choose in order to sue the Governors and States who are in a fight for their sovereign existence.
Article IV section 4 of the Constitution
The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, […] […] and [the United States] shall protect each of them [the States] against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.
The sheriffs are the ones with that authority. And this government has been illegitimate since the Civil War.
Abbott isn’t going to do jack.
The State Police here only work the roadways.
dunno about FL but the Rangers are Tx state police and they do non traffic crime work, from special investigations to pinch point on riots. The there’s an old saw, “One Ranger, one riot…”
In the 1920s, in a heated moment Texas Aggies Corps took their artillery on a train to deal with another school after some insult/offense or somebody got hurt or killed. I’m not sure if that was a one Ranger job, or several
I was a big fan of “Lone Wolf McQuade” with Chuck Norris.
If Ron or any other defendants or respondents don’t file a legal response and don’t show up in court, for either the Bexar County TX or federal treasury department case he will lose by default. That’s statutory law case law and common law in the United States
When you do the opposite of what made something successful…. Why do they want to do that? I don’t think they know. If you let your dog crap in your living room and don’t correct, it continues to stink.
Based on this new lawfare scheme, it doesn’t matter if the illegals are sent to blue states or if they are sent back to Mexico and Central America. Lawfare will give them all U Visas. Country partition is looking more likely every day. Pro freedom states need to go scorched earth by getting rid of all social programs that the illegals live on. Then the illegals will leave on their own.
Good point!
live in blue cities until those collapse – hollowed out under alot of weight
“Based on this new lawfare scheme, it doesn’t matter if the illegals are sent to blue states or if they are sent back to Mexico and Central America. Lawfare will give them all U Visas.”
I believe it’s worse than that.
Based on this precedent any arriving illegal who is smart enough (or coached well enough) to claim at least some trafficking occurred within the US will be able to a find friendly officials who can then open an “investigation.”
You KNOW it’s coming.
Three guesses what Soros’ stooges in ELCA and Catholic Charities are doing as I write this ….
Soon anyone who owns a home with a spare bedroom will be forced to house an ‘immigrant’ or two. However Obama, Soros, McConnell and Andrew Weissmann will be exempt from this “rule”.
Finally. I was wondering when the federal government would get around to violating the 3rd amendment of the U.S. Constitution. These migrants are effectively foot soldiers.
The Cartels are the ones who will use this to their advantage.
They control the illegals and most of their behavior.
They will manipulate this situation so the illegals they choose are given VISAs under this Fed Gov crime victims status.
These cartels have moved north from the countries in South America over the last fifty years taking control of the governments they move into.
We here in the United States are just their latest conquest.
They have moved up from Columbia into other SA countries into Mexico and now are here.
They are relentless, violent and vicious and very very difficult to stop.
Our Feds do not want to stop them and seem to be working with them in giving them control over our country.
Yes, all of our social services are used to support illegal aliens. Programs that were instituted to help and serve (whether you agree with the programs/services or not in the first place) ONLY a state’s citizens somehow – over many years – morphed into allowing illegal aliens to access these programs and services.
Social services have also been weaponized for a long time – just try turning off that spigot to people who do not belong here – but agreed, it is EXACTLY one of, at the least, things that must be done to stop this invasion.
On Oct. 30, 2008, in Columbia, Missouri, Obama stated his intention:
“We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.”
The Plan was to introduce his Marxist/Socialism by fundamentally transforming the most independent and patriotic group of people in the world—the American middle class—into a proletarian type dependent class, doing it primarily through the health care system. ObamaCare failed.
We could not be convinced or seduced.
Transforming the American middle class to a proletarian dependency is not so easy.
A second opportunity arrived via hamstringing the presidency of Donald Trump (the champion of the middle class),
a Scamdemic, and stealing an election followed.
Through his chosen white surrogate, his dolt of a VP—his very own Medvedev—the One could dictate in the shadows and not take the blame for the mess to follow.
For the Marxist/Socialist transformation to be complete, the middle class has to be eliminated, a ruling class oligarchy must assert it’s tyranny over an obedient poorer working class—albeit one that has to be illegally imported through opened borders.
The massive importation of obedient workers/dependents into America is a ready-made population, one profiled to overwhelm and replace what has made us great. If you can’t turn the resident middle class into the Marxist rabble you want in order to rule over them, then you just have to import them by the millions.
obama clearly verbalized his intentions and his disgust with our Constitution in the months prior to the 2008 election.
And when I pointed out to friends and family members what obama had said, they ended up asking me if I heard black helicopters overhead in the middle of the night, too.
obama would never have been “elected” if it hadn’t been for a bunch of white people feeling guilty and voting for the gray guy to make themselves feel better.
And if obama had never been “elected” we wouldn’t be dealing with Robinette today.
“obama would never have been “elected” if it hadn’t been for a bunch of white people feeling guilty and voting for the gray guy to make themselves feel better”
This is exactly the gamble TPTB took with Obama.
Bush had soured the voters on republicans. Obama was groomed and ready for the scheme and had been given the seat in Illinois after his handlers created a fake scandal about his primary opponent out of a hat. Racism was quiet but TPTB were preparing to use that too. Obama popped up, no record in the Senate really, no records in college really, no experience really, no past really to look at and there he was at the DNC giving a speech as a newly minted leftist Dem ‘wonderkund. ‘. In reality he was a bought and paid for manufactured tool for the globalists and leftists elite. They wanted control of the USA and they got it.
He was the perfect storm for the time and place. TPTB figured now—2008– was the time to set their agenda up a notch and see if they could take the WH on racist guilt alone. It worked and the rest is our painful history for the last 15 years.
All true but Obama could not be President because he wasn’t a Citizen of the United States of America. No problem, Nancy Pelosi ‘deemed’ him eligible.
A word to Ron DeSantis. Keep investing yourself in the big club and your political days are numbered. I voted for Donald Trump and your no Donald Trump.
Waiting for Trump to condemn this preposterous action by the Regime….
Like DeSantis condemned the actions of the FBI toward Trump at Mar-a-Lago?
It’ll be fun to watch how DeSantis manages this craziness. I won’t help or encourage him, but I will laugh if it takes him down.
He must be really pissed at the consultants who dreamed up this act of self sabotage.
RDS f’d up on the money source and/or recruitment
otherwise it was a legitimate idea –
megarich liberals really could help some those people if they bonded
of course, now everyone knows they are worse than Harper Valley hypocrites
The same visas that were flying off of printers in Afghanistan to terrorist ?
Wonder what Paul Ryan thinks about this crap?
Maybe it was his idea
With Uvalde and now this, it appears there’s a stench developing in Texas.
Chilis and human feces
Trump, a billionaire and an older person, doesn’t need to care about lawfare games. Ron DeSantis, on the other hand, is mid career and does not have the financial resources himself to fight against the (Deep State) system. The best case scenario is that he will have just a few marionette strings attached to him but those controlling such strings do not care about what is good for America nor the middle class. Bumper stickers reading “DeSantis for human trafficking” in 3…2…1…
They don’t look like “victims” to me!
Can’t Ron counter sue Texas because illegals are being flown from their state to Fl and Ny. Isn’t that trafficking too?
One would think.
Interesting foundation that illegals have a Constitutional right to choose any state to live in, at citizens’ expense, while a governor representing those citizens has no right to deny them. The idea that they were victims of human trafficking by DeSantis is absurd. They may have been trafficked by drug cartels in cahoots with the democrat party because many of the people they traffic meet the criteria of being used for slavery or sex in multiple states. That doesn’t apply to what DeSantis did.
Sand foundation.. I hope
Yes, they can sue TX or NY or whoever, but it’s a separate lawsuit, not a counter suit.
Countersuits must be an opposing view of the exact same incident being litigated. They can not be based on consideration of a different incident that occurred at a separate time.
Thanks for the distinction, Mikey. Treepers are the best at correcting others without scolding. 😇
Dang it , Tiff. I shoulda scrolled.
Yup, he should bring it.
What a load of bovine excrement! They break the law and then get a visa as a victim of a crime. You can’t make this stuff up.
Dimm/commie/GOPe corrupt everything they touch…the law has genuine merit which they have instead turned on its head for political advantage…..it is meant to bring victims of crime forward so they can testify at the trial of the criminal without fear of deportation……you need only think further than a rape victim refusing to report the crime thinking she/he will be deported once revealed they are illegally in the country
Every city county state and federal law enforcement agency is explicitly forbidden from asking immigration or citizenship status of all crime victims and witnesses.
not true but this grants them a SPECIAL visa giving them a form of legitimacy while they await the trial and outcome
That’s my reaction, too.
Gov. DeSantis committed no crime. His team offered food and transport into the USA to illegal aliens. The illegals weren’t forced into taking food or boarding the nice airplane.
Isn’t what was done with this group of 50 similar to what is being constantly done by the Biden administration? Food and supplies handed to illegals, ushering them onto busses and then airplanes to be dropped off at sites in the interior of the USA…same thing IMO.
This group also signed wavers saying they wanted to go to the vineyard 🤷🏼♀️
Honor among thieves and all that.
Stunts have consequences.
Indeed, IM.
Might be needing a new Declaration in a couple of years.
Reconciliation is not going to be possible with those Marxist sorts trying to erase and redefine history.
Fedzilla and Lefty Lawfare v. DeSantis may be his most high stakes test yet. For the sake of all of us, here’s hoping DeSantis wins.
I am on Gov. De Santis’ side. He did nothing wrong here. He actually delivered the 50 illegals to a really nice neighborhood.
Who knew the residents would not be as nice as the neighborhood?
(we did)
We need to go to war
Well, that (legal mess) might eliminate DeSantis from running against Trump in 2024 and running in the next round (once it’s resolved).
God works in mysterious ways! : )
Libtards screaming about political pawns?
Law is whatever they say it is. Makes it difficult to navigate any aspect of life.
By what legal logic is it trafficking when DeSantis flies illegals to Martha’s Vineyard but not when Biden flies them to Peoria?
Biden is the so-called POTUS. Federal powers. And the use of FL funds to fly illegals in Texas to MV?
They both could be trafficking. It depends on what they were told in each case. The TX Venezuelans were falsely told they were going to fly to where they would be given work. It’s kind of a technical thing, but that means they were defrauded, flown far away under a false pretense. If they hadn’t been told anything false, or they were just invited to fly to Martha’s Vineyard under their own free choice, this suit would not have a basis for filing.
It’s never, never, never a good idea to lie to people to induce them to cross state lines.
So it’s okay for the Federal Government to traffic illegal aliens from the border all over the country as long as they are given no “false”expectation of finding work?
Do we really believe Feral Gov communicates nothing of the sort to the masses of illegals it flies and busses all over this country? I don’t. They – the illegals – are given all sorts of promises and resources.
Massachusetts is a “sanctuary” state – I do not think it’s a false premise to say there would be an expectation of finding work. Illegals can easily find work in this state (I live in MA).
I do follow and understand what you are saying here – and you are probably right in terms of the supposed “justification” for filing this suit.
But to many of us, we just see this as splitting hairs because bottom line: OK for FJB to move illegals all over the country, but let a state governor do so, and we’ve got a criminal investigation on our hands.
A government that is an organized criminal Mafia?
What it is.
Spread the word. Maybe all of them will converge on Martha’s Vineyard. Now we have to find a way to be sure that they cannot leave Mass.
By the way, the only crime that i have seen is the illegal entry into the USA.
What a great idea! Ron should do that and send more- lots, lots more
Lawsuits should be filed by state governments/citizen groups on the grounds that illegal immigrant invaders bring their carbon fo0tprints/green house gases/pollution with them making it harder/impossible to meet liberal green pretzel logic “green’ laws using their own “science” & propaganda against them. In college teachers would tell the class to have 1 or no children to save the environment. When I would mention the importation of immigrant/invaders, it would cause quite an uproar.
Hate is not a strong enough word for how I feel about the lawfare group, department of just-us and this Texas sheriff. Loathe? Despise? Any others?
If we had a real, protected closed border, we would not have so many people being brought here illegally where they are REALLY being trafficked and abused and it would be harder to get illegal drugs into the country. Nope, they will ignore those since they can use them for cheap labor and illegal drugs and instead go after their political opponents.
Maybe Texas will elect a better sheriff in November.
Maybe they vote for a governor that does his job.
Only the Federal Government is allowed to traffic humans from the border to other locations throughout the country!
Ron stepped on FedGov’s operation.
FJB!
A majority of the States, United could put an effective end to that human trafficking if they were willing to do so.
States Legislatures are much easier to influence then Congress ever was. The balance of power needs to be restored between the Federal and State Governments.
Agreed on all points. Too many states however are all in on “helping” all of the poor, unfortunate illegals.
My state legislature (MA) could NOT EVER be influenced to put a stop to this. This year, the MA State Legislature passed a bill to give illegals in this state driver’s licenses. RINO Charlie “Parker”(ask FJB), to his credit, vetoed the bill – to which the state legislature swiftly stepped in and overrode the veto.
We did manage however to get the issue placed on the November ballot – so one more chance to turn it around.
Not going to be calling any particular shanigens on that vote, but I expect a narrow majority of ballots counted will approve of that.
Make of that what you will.
I hear you – I have hope but unfortunately not high hopes.
The UniParty HATES American citizens. In fact, it HATES the very idea of “citizenship” and “America.”
Soooo…if DeSantis gets investigated for “trafficking” them to Martha’s Vineyard, then shouldn’t Biden as well for using federal funds and the military to fly them inland?
I keep trying to read the entirety of this post and failing, as I’m spitting bullets beyond angry!!
OK for FJB to criminally traffic individuals all over this country?
OK for FJB to use our taxpayer funds to move these individuals all over our country?
OK for FJB to violate human trafficking laws?
OK for FJB to subject any state or community he chooses, in the dead of night, to a bunch of illegal aliens?
But a State Governor does the EXACT SAME THING that FERAL GOV does and now we have a criminal investigation?
I just can’t anymore with these double standards and two tiers of so-called justice.
There IS NOT ONE, NOT A ONE OF AN AGENCY OF DC that has not been weaponized – along with too many at state levels as well.
Where do “they” find so many people so willing to do evil and injustice against this country, so many so willing to use law enforcement as a weapon against others, so many so willing to blindly follow corrupted “authority”?
Still hoping and praying for the ground to open up and swallow DC whole.
By this shallow definition of “trafficking”, a large swath of American school districts should be charged. May be a tool to put in our toolbox.
It’s all THEY nonsensical political gameplay…and WE suffer and forced to pay for it.
Republicans and their stupid games. All theater all the time.
I’ve been ready for Florida to sue the wheels of Abbott and every other Border State “Governor” who abandoned their oaths to their State Constitutions and allowed Meth, Fenatnyl and Lord-knows-who to flood our beloved State because of their gross negligence. Woulda been better to greet the “Midnight Run” flights when they started landing in Jacksonville a year ago to nip this in the bud. The hard dope/human trafficking checkpoints on every road entrance to our State I have been raving about don’t seem like such a bad idea now do they?
The thing that’s so particularly galling about Abbott is that he, with great fanfare, launches “Operation Lone Star” which is high octane 100% theater and a complete waste of money and manpower. Deploying DPS to capture illegal aliens and then turning them over to BP/ICE who turns them loose or ships them all over the country accomplishes exactly ZERO. The result is the same as if his lame ass Operation Lone Star didn’t exist. And he’s proud of his operation.
How about spending that money to repel invasion, Abbott? Irritating Democrats is not part of your Oath, defending your State is.
It’s my understanding as a natural born Floridian that the Texas National Constitution has a provision for the Governor to raise a militia to repel an invasion.
In other words, ALL the illegals OBiden Regime has trafficked will receive the same golden ticket- if Dims/ RINOs remain in power.
They don’t need any stinking legislation for comprehensive immigration reform with this.
reformenforcementI understand interest monies from Covid Relief funds were used. And seriously, why not fly illegals who are already in Fl? And why give a no bid contract from a donor/crony owned business? And why pay a “team” to scout and house and feed the illegals in Texas recruiting for the flight? Research “who is Perla”.
This was not well put together.
Friday Night CTH Reader Challenge: In the lead photo, identify the people who are not “migrants”, but are actually ELCA and/or Catholic Charities enablers. Hint: There appear to me to be at least four of ’em.
That photo is from Martha’s Vineyard and the non illegals are the “welcoming” Martha’s Vineyard residents.
Is this what we can expect every time biden flies them all over the US?
It has been widely circulated news in Texas that the illegals being sent elsewhere in the US by Abbott are volunteering to do so. Does this not matter? How do the lawfare clowns get around that?
Those visas may expire by February…
Also, they’re only good if there’s a case.
It seems that only the Democrats are able to come up with the strategies and tactics to successfully attack and destroy their opponents. Even Trump was never able to mount an attack and send them all cowering into a corner. What’s the point of winning when those you put into power can’t even successfully use the tools that are placed in their hands.
Have no doubt it will be used as a weapon against DeSantis just like every crock of BS they cooked up against TRUMP.
I’m not shedding any tears for him or any other Republican game playing clown. No more games – Republicans need to produce RESULTS!
Abbott, complete joke. Arizona legislature Republican controlled, complete joke – they don’t enforce their subpoenas, but put on a good show. Pennsylvania legislature Republican controlled, complete joke – Penn SC justices should have been impeached, but put on a good show with complaints and no ACTION.
Can’t disagree with a word you wrote. GOP completely useless, and even more so in my state.
Maybe it’s time for some street justice to stop this Lawfare crap. Why does it only go one direction. The cowards letting this happen need to pay the price along with those abusing the legal system.
“Lawfare operatives had found an angle to use the transfers as a targeting mechanism against Governor Ron DeSantis. That’s likely why the second set of flights to Delaware never took place.”
So it looked like it worked.
How far will Paul Ryan go to “smooth the hills and mountains” for Gov. D?
An necessary element of a Federal trafficking charge is the exploration of the victim’s labor or services.
Not seeing that. But following the laws has become old fashioned…
These leftist democrats are absolutely sickening in their game playing with human lives—ours and these illegals. I so wish someone could one up them and let them have it big time with legal investigations and charges just like they are pushing all the time for the rest of us. Disgusting.
The illegals should have been turned around at the border. Immediately. They broke numerous immigration laws and so did our federal govt. if truth be told.
When is it our turn? When do we get the bright side of the penny? When do the words American citizen mean something again?
Ya gotta hand it to the Communist Democrats … they sure know how to ABUSE the system. Literally … they should be brought up on charges … “Abuse of Process”. And jailed … to the full extent of the Law.
All of the crimes Joe, and Hunter have committed and nothing will ever be done about real crimes.
And once again, citizens of the United States are hosed by Joe Biden’s Administration.
If the feds transport an illegal from Point A to Point B, that’s not trafficking? If anyone else does, it is?
I thought it was expressly illegal to aid and abet illegals.
Asylum has a very narrow definition. It is so narrow that without a regional war, no material population could remotely qualify for such status. On top of which, Mexicans would be the only nationals south of the border eligible to qualify due to adjacency requirements. So, the crux of this is that the feds and their contractors are engaging in RICO (organized corruption) activities that are prima facie violations of federal law.
All it would take is a state AG to boldly read aloud and for the public record the federal code on asylum and alien abetting to see that there is law breaking going on in the main. The message from that pronouncement is that NO SINGLE federal attorney is stepping forth to address it. The takeaway is that the entirety of the federal apparatus is either afraid to enforce the law or does not acknowledge it. Either is testament to a failed state.
“If the feds transport an illegal from Point A to Point B, that’s not trafficking? If anyone else does, it is?”
“When I was your age they would say we can become cops, or criminals. Today, what I’m saying to you is this: when you’re facing a loaded gun, what’s the difference?
Pigs these people are pigs may they rot in a torturous hell.
