If enacted, the plan would more than double the force at the border in an effort to staunch drug violence that has killed at least 11,000 in Mexico since 2006. By David Montero July 01, 2009 at 8:17 am EST With Mexico sliding deeper into violence, President Obama could be preparing to send 1,500 National Guard soldiers to shore up the border. Senior administration officials say the Defense Department and the Department of Homeland Security are hashing out the plan, according to the Associated Press. If enacted, it would more than double the current National Guard operation at the border, which consists of 575 Guard members. The program would ask for National Guard volunteers to go to ...

Federal agents hunt for guns, one house at a time By DANE SCHILLER Copyright 2009 Houston Chronicle June 30, 2009, 9:36PM In front of a run-down shack in north Houston, federal agents step from a government sedan into 102-degree heat and face a critical question: How can the woman living here buy four high-end handguns in one day? The house is worth $35,000. A screen dangles by a wall-unit air conditioner. Porch swing slats are smashed, the smattering of grass is flattened by cars and burned yellow by sun. Ill do the talking on this one, agent Tim Sloan, of South Carolina, told partner Brian Tumiel, of New York. Success on the front lines of a government blitz on ...

Friday, May 22, 2009Ethnic Cleansing, American Style Much ado has been made about the recent arrests of illegal aliens from Mexico who were ethnically cleansing black Americans from the Los Angeles suburb of Hawaiian Gardens. http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D98AUEK01&show_article=1" Interestingly enough, Janet Reno Napalitano and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) were not involved. It was an FBI operation along with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. While the press release mentions ICE as part of the Los Angeles High-Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) Task Force, ICE was prominently not mentioned as an actively participating agency.

Bill Strauss, appearing on News/Talk 92-3 KTAR's Jay Lawrence Show, said he is disappointed at the immigration bills surfacing in the Legislature -- including one which would require schools to gather information on students who can't prove they are U.S. citizens. "I despise it," Strauss said of that bill. "I just think ...
Liberty, Interrupted Post Date: 2009-06-29 06:32:32 by Ada

I visited the Statue of Liberty for the first time last week. The morning trip to the island required only a short line to the ferry, a cursory bag inspection by bored state security. The ferry is not cheap, but visiting Liberty Island itself is "free." When we docked on Liberty Island, a long, wrap-around line was evident, containing people from an earlier ferry, as well as those from ours. It was reminiscent of a line for a broken ride at Disney World, before the linees know that the ride isnt going anywhere. About 90 minutes later we arrived at the security checkpoint, complete with a number of GE EntryScan walkthrough devices, the "puffer." Interestingly, DHS ...

PALM SPRINGS, Ca -- In just a few weeks time, California hits the wall. And Americans should take a good, long look at the fiscal and social wreck of the Golden Land, because California is at a place to which all of America is heading. In May, when five fund-raising proposals were put on the ballot, Gov. Schwarzenegger pleaded with the overtaxed Californians not to make their state "the poster child for dysfunction." As The Economist writes, "On May 18th, they did exactly that." Arnold went to the White House for U.S. loan guarantees for new state bonds. But with the president's approval rating wilting because of a belief he is spending too much, the Obama-ites ...

LOS ANGELES (AP) - A man who said he left a ruthless street gang in Central America and later won praise for his anti-gang work in Los Angeles was arrested Wednesday by authorities who allege he conspired to kill a rival even as he spoke out against gang life. Alex Sanchez, 37, who heads the local office of the nonprofit Homies Unidos anti-gang group, was taken into custody at his Bellflower home on federal racketeering charges, authorities said. The indictment names 24 leaders, members and associates of MS-13, part of the Mara Salvatrucha gang affiliated with the Mexican Mafia prison gang.

LAREDO, Tex. When he was finally caught, Rosalio Reta told detectives here that he had felt a thrill each time he killed. It was like being Superman or James Bond, he said. I like what I do, he told the police in a videotaped confession. I dont deny it. Mr. Reta was 13 when he was recruited by the Zetas, the infamous assassins of the Gulf Cartel, law enforcement officials say. He was one of a group of American teenagers from the impoverished streets of Laredo who was lured into the drug wars across the Rio Grande in Mexico with promises of high pay, fancy cars and sexy women. After a short apprenticeship, the young men lived in an expensive house in ...

Gang rape: Is it a race issue? A high proportion of such attacks appears to be carried out by young black men, according to Metropolitan Police statistics. Sorious Samura investigates this horrendous crime and what it says about Britain today Sunday, 21 June 2009 In 1999 I witnessed a gang rape in Sierra Leone. I was forced to watch a group of rebel soldiers taking it in turns to rape a young girl in front of an audience of jeering men. It was the height of the civil conflict and rape had become a devastating weapon of war. When I moved to Britain I believed I had escaped such horrific sexual violence. As my Dispatches investigation tomorrow night shows, I was mistaken. Gang rape ...

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Friday disputed claims that illegal immigrants caused California's $24.3 billion deficit, while he praised their economic contributions and said he is "happy" they have access to services. The Republican governor, answering wide-ranging questions from The Bee's editorial board and its readers, also vented about roadblocks to his authority posed by political foes and warned that government can't sustain the current level of "unbelievable benefits" for public-sector workers. In response to dozens of questions from readers who say the state ought to wipe out the deficit by eliminating services for illegal immigrants, the governor ...

County bracing for flood of uninsured patients By Tom Kisken (Contact) Tuesday, June 16, 2009 Ventura County health leaders are gearing up for continued increases in uninsured patients who show up in clinics, urgent care centers and emergency rooms as a result of state budget cuts that could take away as much as $22 million from public healthcare in the area beginning next month. At a county budget hearing Monday evening, Ventura County Health Care Agency Director Mike Powers said the states approved health cuts will take away about $9 million from the county. Additional cuts proposed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger but not yet approved could take away $13 million more from a county ...

Governor Steve Beshear Wednesday reversed a decision by Kentucky State Police to start offering the written drivers license test only in English. Kentucky had previously offered the test in 22 different languages. KSP officials say to grade the old tests given in foreign languages, answer keys provided by translators had to be used, and the costs really added up. But even in these times of severe budget cuts, the governor couldn't justify an English only test. Jay Blanton, a spokesman for the state's chief executive, tells 27 NEWSFIRST, "The governor just learned about this Tuesday night, and when he did, he believed it was simply the wrong thing to do, a mistake as a matter ...

If you vote as a democrat, you try to aid the poor in order to uplift them to a better life. If you vote as a republican, you call on citizens to take personal responsibility and accountability. Its been said that when youre young, you vote democratic from your idealistic zeal because you possess a heart, but no brain. You want to help everybody with taxpayers money. When youre older, if you vote republican, it means you lack a heart but you utilize your brain. You think citizens need to take personal responsibility for their lives.

The Immigration Act of 1924 (The Johnson-Reed Act) Post Date: 2009-06-07 08:30:52 by Deasy

The Immigration Act of 1924 limited the number of immigrants allowed entry into the United States through a national origins quota. The quota provided immigration visas to two percent of the total number of people of each nationality in the United States as of the 1890 national census. It completely excluded immigrants from Asia. In 1917, the U.S. Congress enacted the first widely restrictive immigration law. The uncertainty generated over national security during World War I made it possible for Congress to pass this Act, and it included several important provisions that paved the way for the 1924 Act. The 1917 Act implemented a literacy test that required immigrants over 16 years old to ...

That shapes up as a probable match between Republican political novice Meg Whitman versus either ...

LAZARO CARDNEAS, Mexico, May 31 (UPI) -- A new, violent and cult-like drug trafficking group has taken over the day-to-day political life of the Mexican state of Michoacan, residents allege. Called La Familia Michoacana, the drug cartel can, at times, dictate who will run for office and frequently puts its own people up for election, which critics say is a perversion of democracy, the Los Angeles Times reported Sunday. The newspaper said Mexican federal authorities last week arrested 10 Michoacan mayors and 20 other local officials as part of a drug probe, alleging La Familia has infiltrated many city halls as the state and country prepares for national contests on July 5. Police say ...

This is important because no development strategy can be based only upon what comes out of the ground, nor can it be sustained while young people are out of work. Many Gulf States have enjoyed great wealth as a consequence of oil, and some are beginning to focus it on broader development. But all of us must recognize that education and innovation will be the currency of the 21st century, and in too many Muslim communities there remains underinvestment in these areas. I am emphasizing such investments within my country. And while America in the past has focused on oil and gas in this part of the world, we now seek a broader engagement. On education, we will expand exchange programs, and ...

Racial hatred runs African American family out of dream home By Corina Knoll June 4, 2009 The house, a three-bedroom cream-colored residence on a peaceful street, even had yellow and red roses waving merrily from the front lawn. And while the backyard was cramped, there was a nectarine tree, a red swing set and a small gazebo. This is it, Channise Davy thought. Home. Happy to have found a place near her salon in Altadena and close to her fiance in Pasadena, the 31-year-old hairdresser moved her four children from North Hollywood into the one-story charmer on Broach Avenue in Duarte last fall. Davy never thought about the fact that they would be the only black family on the mostly ...
