Release Date: May 1, 2007 Washington, D.C. Secretary Chertoff: Thank you, Glen. Thank you for that introduction. But more than that, what a taskmaster. I mean, you've got all the cell phones off, all the plates and the forks are down. I'm very impressed. It's delightful to be here with you this afternoon, and also to be here with my old friend, Abe Foxman, and with Rick Barton. And, again, thank you to Glen for doing such a fine job with the introduction. I had a little bit of an opportunity to look at the speakers list, and I know you have had a tremendous roster of speakers address you during this conference. I guess the challenge to me is, since I think I'm the last ...

Many migrant marchers have moved on This year's protest will lack last year's size, but only because immigrants have made political progress. By Gustavo Arellano, GUSTAVO ARELLANO is a contributing editor to Opinion and author of the new book "¡Ask a Mexican!" May 1, 2007 MILLIONS OF Latinos surprised the United States a year ago with a kick to the political cojones.

Lining up behind slogans such as "IM A Imigrant" and the diatribe of a convicted murderer, demonstrators at hundreds of sites across the U.S. are using May Day to demand a long list of special accommodations for illegal aliens, and one group advocating for stricter immigration control actually is pleased. William Gheen, the chief of Americans for Legal Immigration told WND that when such demonstrations happen, his list of supporters grows. "We're happy they're going to march again, because our supporter base almost doubled last May [during the last May Day protests]," he told WND. Demonstrations have been planned in Los Angeles, Phoenix, New York, San ...
Questions raised over college diversity

NEW YORK — Something in the crowd made Shirley Wilcher wonder. As a college graduate in the early 1970s, her black classmates were like herself — born in the United States, to American parents. But at an alumni reunion at Mount Holyoke College last year, she saw something different and asked for admissions data to prove it. “My suspicions were confirmed,” said Wilcher, now the executive director of the American Association for Affirmative Action. She found a rise in the number of black students from Africa and the Caribbean, and a downturn in admissions of native blacks like her. A study released this year put numbers on the trend. Among students at 28 top U.S. ...

Deported migrant contests policy Woman had legal right to stay, attorney says Daniel González The Arizona Republic May. 1, 2007 12:00 AM A Glendale woman who had been living unlawfully in the United States for two decades is waging a court battle to re-enter the country after she was summarily deported in February. Sylvia Uribe-Reyna's case could help other undocumented immigrants remain in the country. If successful, the case would curtail the federal government's efforts to quickly deport thousands of foreign nationals without court hearings. The practice is known as expedited removal. The tactic is considered a key tool in securing the nation's borders. ...

MEXICO CITY – Almost one in two Mexicans has a family member working in the United States, and a third of those were sent money in the past year, according to a survey published in Mexican daily El Universal Monday. The poll of 1,000 people showed 45 percent had at least one relative across the border and 61 percent rated the money they send as “very important,” illustrating Mexico's reliance on remittances. Some 11 million Mexicans in the United States sent home a record $23 billion to their families last year – Mexico's second-biggest source of foreign currency after oil imports, even dwarfing the tourism industry. Monday's survey showed immigration to the ...

“The leaders of the U.S. Border Patrol’s rank-and-file agents have unanimously voted a no-confidence resolution against Chief David V. Aguilar, citing, among other things, his willingness to believe the “perjured allegations” of criminal aliens over his own agents. The resolution won endorsement from all 100 top leaders of the National Border Patrol Council (NBPC), which represents all 11,000 of the U.S. Border Patrol’s nonsupervisory field agents, and targeted Chief Aguilar’s lack of support for field agents, several of whom have been prosecuted on civil rights grounds involving arrests of illegal aliens and drug-smuggling suspects.” ~ NBPC Dual ...

The Next Added 100 Million Part 31 Quality Of Life By Frosty Wooldridge 4-26-7 Thomas Jefferson proposed that every American enjoy, "Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Back in 1776, that meant food, shelter, a rich and rewarding family-life, spiritual awakening, employment and creative expression. High-speed, high-stress life- is that what YOU want ? In the 21st century, another phrase becomes more important in our high speed- high stress lives. "Quality of life" surfaced in the American lexicon in the last twenty years. Why? Because we started growing too much, moved too fast and suffered accelerating consequences. For those of you who remember the 1950s ...
Satan behind illegal immigration, Utah County Republican claims

PROVO - A Utah County Republican delegate may not be catching hell for calling illegal immigration a satanic plot, but he isn't gaining any converts, either. Utah County GOP Chairwoman Marian Monnahan says District 65 Chairman Don Larsen's resolution - asserting that illegal immigration is the devil's plan to destroy the nation by "stealth invasion" - "in no way" is endorsed by the Republican Party. "It's just free speech," Monnahan said Thursday. "It's Don's right to do that." Provo Mayor Lewis Billings, a prominent Utah County Republican, says he understands Larsen's frustration with the federal government's slow ...
IMMIGRATION BILL ADVANCES NORTH AMERICAN UNION

Rep. Edward Royce, a high-ranking conservative California Republican, said over the weekend that a White House-backed amnesty plan for illegal aliens has provisions which undermine the national sovereignty of the U.S. and help facilitate development of a North American Union, much like the European Union that supersedes the sovereignty of 27 European countries. He vowed to defy the White House and mobilize House Republicans against the bill, backed by what he called the “open borders lobby.” Accuracy in Media has published several articles about the North American Union, the creation of which has been ignored by most of the media, except for Lou Dobbs of CNN and some ...

April 23, 2007 -- On August 28, 2006, WMR reported on how the U.S. visa issuing process was being outsourced to cronies with no accountability for the visa fee funds received from U.S. embassies abroad. We reported on what was occurring with the "I-Visa," a special visa required for journalists wishing to visit the United States: Certain U.S. embassies, like those in Copenhagen and Berlin, through a bank wire contrivance, require visa fees to be paid into special bank accounts established by the various U.S. embassies. In Germany, the Bush cronies have cut a deal with a small outfit called Roskos and Meier OHG, a 23-person subsidiary of the giant banking consortium, Alianz Group. ...

RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) - At least 19 people were killed in poor neighborhoods of Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday, some in a shootout between rival gangs and others in a police raid, Brazilian police said. The killings occurred a day after President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva agreed to speed up the deployment of a special federal security force around the city. At least 13 people were killed in the Morro da Mineira shantytown which police, armed with assault rifles, raided to quell a prolonged shootout between rival gangs. Most of the dead were drug runners killed by members of rival gangs, police said. "It wasn't a planned raid, we had to go in and intervene because rival gangs were ...

Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff is a busy guy these days securing our border with Mexico—at least that’s what the "mainstream media" wants Americans to think. During President Bush’s tour of Yuma, Arizona on April 9, we were shown pictures of Bush and Chertoff posing in front of a Predator B unmanned aerial vehicle, implying that the Predator is being used along the border to catch illegal aliens. Other pictures showed Bush pointing to fencing that has been erected at the border since he visited the same spot one year ago. "This border is more secure, and America is safer as a result," the president told several hundred border agents, ...

MEXICO CITY - Police found 17 bodies stuffed in cars or dumped on streets in garbage bags across Mexico on Monday in the latest wave of violence apparently triggered by warring drug gangs. In the resort city of Cancun, the bodies of three men and two women were found in an SUV with their heads covered in tape and their hands bound behind their backs, Quintana Roo state police said. Police spokesman Antonio Coral said he could not immediately confirm the cause of death. Mexico City police found more three bodies in an SUV parked in a middle-class neighborhood in what the Mexico City attorney general said appeared to be killings linked to a turf war between drug gangs.

For Illegal Immigrants, Housing Slump Takes Toll

HURON, Calif. — Some of the casualties of America’s housing bust are easy to spot up and down California’s Central Valley. From Fresno to Sacramento, big tangles of wire and PVC pipes clutter vacant lots in silent subdivisions, waiting for houses to be built — some day. Dozens of “For Sale” signs already dot the lawns across new residential communities. And right next to the ubiquitous billboards from builders are fresh signs offering homeowners help to avoid foreclosure. But another set of losers is less visible: the immigrant workers, mostly illegal, who rode the construction boom while it lasted and now find jobs on building sites few and far between. ...

MOSCOW, April 13 — From a stall inside the Rizhskiy vegetable market, Rustam K. Umarov conducts an illegal trade in oregano, cinnamon sticks, peppercorns, saffron powder and shish kebab marinade. Under a government decree that took effect April 1, Mr. Umarov, as a citizen of Uzbekistan, has been banned from working as a vendor at any of Russia’s 5,200 markets, which were a mainstay for groceries and household goods through the 1990s and that still account for a fifth of all retail trade here. It does not matter that he is a legal immigrant. Under the decree, seen as one of the more draconian anti-immigrant measures in Europe, only Russian citizens can sell vegetables. ...

Tent City in Texas Among Immigrant Holding Sites Drawing Criticism By Spencer S.

About 2,000 illegal immigrants, part of a record 26,500 held across the United States by federal authorities, will call the 10 giant tents home for weeks, months and perhaps years before they are removed from the United ...

That America's two most recent presidents, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, have been guilty of egregiously flawed and fallacious decisions and activities is obvious. However, at what point do bad policies and conduct become treasonous? At what point do we conclude that our country's Chief Executive has crossed the line of mere inanity or naïveté and has actually become a threat to our national security and survival? Those who listened to my radio talk show when Bill Clinton was in office know how I daily chronicled what I believed were acts of treason. No, I am not talking about his numerous sexual affairs. I'm talking primarily about what became known as ...
