As the fourth Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court warned:
"An unlimited power to tax involves, necessarily, a power to destroy; because there is a limit beyond which no institution and no property can bear taxation." -John Marshall
In this light, as Obama continues to promote huge tax increases in the middle of a recession that's worse than the Great Depression, keep in mind, Obama is only carrying out the "Dreams from (His) Father":
"What does a country do when you have powerful concentrations of economic wealth at the top? (Two solutions): First, you have to use the power of the state to control and regulate private industry. Second, you need very high tax rates. How high? Theoretically, there is nothing that can stop the government from taxing 100 percent of income so long as the people get benefits from the government commensurate with their income which is taxed." - Barak Obama, Sr., East Africa Journal, 1965

Nearly two million dead v**ers were registered and v**ed for Barack Obama in 2008. Is it any wonder the Democrats and l*****t nuts are fighting tooth and nail to block v**er I.D. laws? Why haven't we heard about this? Well, because Obama owns mainstream media. Mainstream media also completely ignores the fact that Obama has spent millions of our tax dollars quietly fighting these battles. It's a perfect situation: Obama gets fraudulently elected with the help of nearly two million dead people, then he uses millions of our tax dollars (of the people who really didn't elect him) to ensure his ability to retain power, and finally, it's all concealed by sell-out media which feeds us propaganda in place of t***h. Who does this remind us of? I answer: Hitler; or any other power-mongering dictator who has oppressed people in history. They all used the same tactics and Obama is no different.

Not only was fraud committed by using dead v**ers, the Obama campaign also committed v***r f***d via box stuffing in 2008; and the McCain Campaign knew about it. Why didn't they pursue it? McCain feared civil unrest and loved his country too much to see it torn apart with racial division. Can you imagine? The first black President is elected and then has the presidency stripped from him? You better believe there would have been civil unrest - it may have even caused a civil war. Below is an internal email published by wikileaks with the subject "RE: Insight - The Dems & Dirty Tricks ** Internal Use Only - Pls Do Not Forward **":
"1) The black Dems were caught stuffing the b****t boxes in Philly and Ohio as reported the night of the e******n and Sen. McCain chose not to fight. The matter is not dead inside the party. It now becomes a matter of sequence now as to how and when to 'out'.
2) It appears the Dems "made a donation" to Rev. Jesse (no, they would never do that!) to keep his yap shut after his diatribe about the Jews and Israel. A little bird told me it was a "nice six-figure donation". This also becomes a matter of how and when to out. (this has already been exposed and the bribe was $150,000, to be exact)
3) The hunt is on for the sleezy Russian money into O-mans coffers. A smoking gun has already been found. Will get more on this when the time is right. My source was too giddy to continue. Can you say Clinton and ChiCom funny money? This also becomes a matter of how and when to out." (no wonder Obama told Russian President Medvedev, during a discussion of disarming our missile defenses, "After my e******n, I'll have more flexibility").


Finally, here is the email explaining why McCain didn't pursue the fraud committed by Obama:
"After discussions with his inner circle, which explains the delay in his speech, McCain decided not to pursue the v***r f***d in PA and Ohio, despite his staff's desire to make it an issue. He said no. Staff felt they could get a federal injunction to stop the process. McCain felt the crowds assembled in support of Obama and such would be detrimental to our country and it would do our nation no good for this to d**g out like last go around, coupled with the possibility of domestic violence. My guy said many were shocked, but after reflecting upon his decision, thought he put the country first."

God Save The USA.

V***r F***d: We’ve Got Proof It’s Easy

Liberals who oppose efforts to prevent v***r f***d claim that there is no fraud — or at least not any that involves v****g in person at the polls. But New York City’s watchdog Department of Investigations has just provided the latest evidence of how easy it is to commit v***r f***d that is almost undetectable. DOI undercover agents showed up at 63 polling places last fall and pretended to be v**ers who should have been turned away by e******n officials; the agents assumed the names of individuals who had died or moved out of town, or who were sitting in jail. In 61 instances, or 97 percent of the time, the testers were allowed to v**e. Those who did v**e cast only a write-in v**e for a “John Test” so as to not affect the outcome of any contest. DOI published its findings two weeks ago in a searing 70-page report accusing the city’s Board of E******ns of incompetence, waste, nepotism, and lax procedures. The Board of E******ns, which has a $750 million annual budget and a work force of 350 people, reacted in classic bureaucratic fashion, which prompted one city paper to deride it as “a 21st-century survivor of Boss Tweed–style politics.” The Board approved a resolution referring the DOI’s investigators for prosecution. It also asked the state’s attorney general to determine whether DOI had violated the civil rights of v**ers who had moved or are felons, and it sent a letter of complaint to Mayor Bill de Blasio. Normally, I wouldn’t think de Blasio would give the BOE the time of day, but New York’s new mayor has long been a close ally of former leaders of ACORN, the now-disgraced “community organizing” group that saw its employees convicted of v**er-registration fraud all over the country during and after the 2008 e******n. Greg Soumas, president of New York’s BOE, offered a justification for calling in the prosecutors: “If something was done in an untoward fashion, it was only done by DOI. We [are] unaware of any color of authority on the part of [DOI] to v**e in the identity of any person other than themselves — and our reading of the e******n law is that such an act constitutes a felony.” The Board is bipartisan, and all but two of its members v**ed with Soumas. The sole exceptions were Democrat Jose Araujo, who abstained because the DOI report implicated him in hiring his wife and sister-and-law for Board jobs, and Republican Simon Shamoun. Good-government groups are gobsmacked at Soumas’s refusal to smell the stench of corruption in his patronage-riddled empire. “They should focus not on assigning blame to others, but on taking responsibility for solving the problems themselves,” Dick Dadey of the watchdog group Citizens Union told the Daily News. “It’s a case of the Board of E******ns passing the buck.” DOI officials respond that the use of undercover agents is routine in anti-corruption probes and that people should carefully read the 70-page report they’ve filed before criticizing it. They are surprised how little media attention their report has received. You’d think more media outlets would have been interested, because the sloppiness revealed in the DOI report is mind-boggling. Young undercover agents were able to v**e using the names of people three times their age, people who in fact were dead. In one example, a 24-year female agent gave the name of someone who had died in 2012 at age 87; the workers at the Manhattan polling site gave her a b****t, no questions asked. Even the two cases where poll workers turned away an investigator raise eyebrows. In the first case, a poll worker on Staten Island walked outside with the undercover investigator who had just been refused a b****t; the “v**er” was advised to go to the polling place near where he used to live and “play dumb” in order to v**e. In the second case, the investigator was stopped from v****g only because the felon whose name he was using was the son of the e******n official at the polling place. Shooting the messenger has been a typical reaction in other states when people have demonstrated just how easy it is to commit v***r f***d. Guerrilla videographer James O’Keefe had three of his assistants visit precincts during New Hampshire’s January 2012 p**********l primary. They asked poll workers whether their books listed the names of several v**ers, all deceased individuals still listed on v**er-registration rolls. Poll workers handed out ten b****ts, never once asking for a photo ID. O’Keefe’s team immediately gave back the b****ts, unmarked, to precinct workers. Debbie Lane, a b****t inspector at one of the Manchester polling sites, later said: “I wasn’t sure what I was allowed to do. . . . I can’t tell someone not to v**e, I suppose.” The only precinct in which O’Keefe or his crew did not obtain a b****t was one in which the local precinct officer had personally known the dead “v**er.” New Hampshire’s Democratic governor, John Lynch, sputtered when asked about O’Keefe’s video, and he condemned the effort to test the e******n system even though no actual v**es were cast. “They should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, if in fact they’re found guilty of some criminal act,” he roared. But cooler heads eventually prevailed, and the GOP state legislature later approved a v**er-ID bill, with enough v**es to override the governor’s veto. Despite an exhaustive and intrusive investigation, no charges were ever filed against any of O’Keefe’s associates. Later in 2012, in Washington, D.C., one of O’Keefe’s assistants was able to obtain Attorney General Eric Holder’s b****t even though Holder is 62 years old and bears no resemblance to the 22-year-old white man who obtained it merely by asking if Eric Holder was on the rolls. But the Department of Justice, which is currently suing Texas to block that state’s photo-ID law, dismissed the Holder b****t incident as “manufactured.” The irony was lost on the DOJ that Holder, a staunch opponent of v**er-ID laws, could have himself been disenfranchised by a white man because Washington, D.C., has no v**er-ID law. Polls consistently show that more than 70 percent of Americans — including clear majorities of African Americans and Hispanics — support such laws. Liberals who oppose b****t-security measures claim that there are few prosecutions for v***r f***d, which they take to mean that fraud doesn’t happen. But as the New York DOI report demonstrates, it is comically easy, given the sloppy-v***r r**********n records often kept in America, to commit v***r f***d in person. (A 2012 study by the Pew Research Center found that nationwide, at least 1.8 million deceased v**ers are still registered to v**e.) And unless someone confesses, in-person v***r f***d is very difficult to detect — or stop. New York’s Gothamist news service reported last September that four poll workers in Brooklyn reported they believed people were trying to v**e in the name of other registered v**ers. Police officers observed the problems but did nothing because v***r f***d isn’t under the police department’s purview. What the DOI investigators were able to do was eerily similar to actual fraud that has occurred in New York before. In 1984, Brooklyn’s Democratic district attorney, Elizabeth Holtzman, released a state grand-jury report on a successful 14-year conspiracy that cast thousands of fraudulent v**es in local, state, and congressional e******ns. Just like the DOI undercover operatives, the conspirators cast v**es at precincts in the names of dead, moved, and bogus v**ers. The grand jury recommended v**er ID, a basic e******n-integrity measure that New York has steadfastly refused to implement. In states where non-photo ID is required, it’s also all too easy to manufacture records that allow people to v**e. In 2012, the son of Congressman Jim Moran, the Democrat who represents Virginia’s Washington suburbs, had to resign as field director for his father’s campaign after it became clear that he had encouraged v***r f***d. Patrick Moran was caught advising an O’Keefe videographer on how to commit in-person v***r f***d. The scheme involved using a personal computer to forge utility bills that would satisfy Virginia’s v**er-ID law and then relying on the assistance of Democratic lawyers stationed at the polls to make sure the fraudulent v**es were counted. Last year, Virginia tightened its v**er-ID law and ruled that showing a utility bill was no longer sufficient to obtain a b****t. Given that someone who is dead, is in jail, or has moved isn’t likely to complain if someone v**es in his name, how do we know that v***r f***d at the polls isn’t a problem? An ounce of prevention — in the form of v**er ID and better training of poll workers — should be among the minimum precautions taken to prevent an e*******l miscarriage or meltdown in a close race. After all, even a small number of v**es can have sweeping consequences. Al Franken’s 312-v**e victory in 2008 over Minnesota senator Norm Coleman gave Democrats a filibuster-proof Senate majority of 60 v**es, which allowed them to pass Obamacare. Months after the Obamacare v**e, a conservative group called Minnesota Majority finished comparing criminal records with v****g rolls and identified 1,099 felons — all ineligible to v**e — who had v**ed in the Franken–Coleman race. Fox News random interviews with ten of those felons found that nine had v**ed for Franken, backing up national academic studies that show felons tend to v**e strongly for Democrats. Minnesota Majority took its findings to prosecutors across the state, but very few showed any interest in pursuing the issue. Some did, though, and 177 people have been convicted as of mid 2012 — not just “accused” but actually convicted — of v****g fraudulently in the Senate race. Probably the only reason the number of convictions isn’t higher is that the standard for convicting someone of v***r f***d in Minnesota is that the person must have been both ineligible and must have “knowingly” v**ed unlawfully. Anyone accused of fraud is apt to get off by claiming he didn’t know he’d done anything wrong. Given that we now know for certain how easy it is to commit undetectable v***r f***d and how serious the consequences can be, it’s truly bizarre to have officials at the New York City Board of E******ns and elsewhere savage those who shine a light on the fact that their modus operandi invites fraud. One might even think that they’re covering up their incompetence or that they don’t want to pay attention to what crimes could be occurring behind the curtains at their polling places. Or both.

We now know that the man who murdered five people in just 60 seconds at a Washington state mall was not “Hispanic,” as reports initially said; he is an immigrant from Turkey. And while authorities initially downplayed a possible terror link — while not totally ruling it out — we also now know he had a blog with photo posts of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei.

Now we’re learning what may be some of the most chilling details of all around this murderer. Arcan Cetin is
not a U.S. citizen — and yet he v**ed, not just once, but in three e******ns, including the recent May p**********l primary.
..
The implications are staggering when you consider how many more non-citizens (thousands? millions?) out there exist in our nation who are doing the same thing.

As King 5 News reports:

The Cascade Mall shooting suspect, Arcan Cetin, may face an additional investigation related to his v****g record and citizenship status.
Federal sources confirm to KING 5 that Cetin was not a U.S. citizen, meaning legally he cannot v**e. However, state records show Cetin registered to v**e in 2014 and participated in three e******n cycles, including the May p**********l primary.
Cetin, who immigrated to the United States from Turkey as a child, is considered a permanent resident or green card holder. While a permanent resident can apply for U.S. citizenship after a certain period of time, sources tell KING his status had not changed from green card holder to U.S. citizen.

While v**ers must attest to citizenship upon registering online or registering to v**e at the Department of Licensing Office, Washington state doesn’t require proof of citizenship. Therefore e******ns officials say the state’s e******ns system operates, more or less, under an honor system.

This is very similar to how it works in my (Michelle Jesse’s) home state of Minnesota — where a registered v**er can “vouch” for another individual’s eligibility. In fact, a single registered v**er can “vouch” for as many as eight people (down from 15, which it was prior to 2013) — which comes in handy when one is trying to process a busload of ineligible v**ers from other places on e******n day.

While Cetin is just one high-profile case, how many more are there v****g illegally?

And, of course, we know the Democrats have waged an all-out assault on v**er ID laws in many states, declaring it “r****t” to require identification verification — even allowing the choice of an array of types of ID. Meanwhile, of course, ID is required for just about everything else, like going to the doctor, buying liquor or cigarettes, going to the movies, receiving unemployment or welfare benefits, etc. The t***h is, what’s really r****t is the soft bigotry of lowered expectations — suggesting individuals of certain backgrounds are not capable of getting an ID for themselves.

How many more does this open up to v****g this November?

“We don’t have a provision in state law that allows us either county e******ns officials or the Secretary of State’s office to verify someone’s citizenship,” explained Secretary of State Kim Wyman. “So, we’re in this place where we want to make sure we’re maintaining people’s confidence in the e******ns and the integrity of the process, but also that we’re giving this individual, like we would any v**er, his due process. We’re moving forward, and that investigation is really coming out of the investigation from the shootings.”

The penalty for v****g as a non U.S. citizen could result in five years of prison time or a $10,000, according to Secretary of State’s Office.

However, while the penalty may be high, the recourse for correcting v***r f***d after an e******n is all but impossible. Of course, Cetin will likely be behind bars come November — but how many thousands or millions non-citizens like him are out there free to v**e?

And, of course, it’s no wonder that — as they work to demolish v**er ID where it exists — Democrats are simultaneously doing all they can to open the floodgates to welcome more people to our country. Even as they work to extend v****g rights to felons and work overtime to add new citizens to the rolls before November 8.

It’s a perfect storm — and the tidal wave of that could overtake our republic is downright terrifying.

And that’s why we must continue to fight for v**er ID, as well as take active roles in protecting e******n integrity in every way we are able. In my community, for example, we can sign up to be e******n judges and poll watchers — what about you? Come e******n day, whether you have a formal role or not, stay on high alert to potential fraud that may be happening before your eyes — and report it. We’re fighting for the very integrity of our great republic — and indeed it will take an army.

I hope these rectums leave.

Leave it to the Obama Administration to screw things up royally and make a bad mess worse. A recent audit by the inspector general of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) found that at least 858 ( now thought to be 1858) immigrants to the U.S. who had pending orders of deportation were actually granted citizenship in the last several years.

This was despite these people hailing from countries identified with national security concerns and/or identified with high rates of immigration fraud. The audit found that in every case, the immigrant used either a false birthday or a f**e name when applying and wasn’t caught because government databases were lacking their fingerprints.

DHS admitted that older records containing fingerprints can’t be searched electronically; the department is now in the process of scanning the older files.

DHS also admitted to naturalizing 953 other people who had orders of deportation, despite many of these same people actually having fingerprints on file. The inspector general said fingerprints are lacking in as many as 315,000 cases of immigrants with deportation orders or those who are classified as fugitives. Currently, there’s a backlog of files for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to review more than 148,000 cases.

One of the reasons for the incomplete files is that fingerprint records created in the 1990s by the older Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) and the FBI were never merged with newer records created by ICE. The files only started to be integrated in 2010, despite the government being aware of file gaps and inconsistencies since at least 2008. Few of the “gap” cases were ever investigated.

The inspector general identified two cases that led to criminal prosecutions, and those immigrants had their citizenship revoked. But other cases were declined by federal prosecutors because they “generally did not accept immigration benefits fraud cases,” and some were simply closed without explanation. The inspector explained that some of these cases are now being investigated and/or re-opened.

Awarding citizenship accidentally can have a major impact because anyone with that valuable status can apply for jobs requiring security clearances or handling sensitive materials and/or information. The inspector general stated that in at least three of the aforementioned cases, individuals were able to acquire t***sportation or aviation worker credentials, giving them access to secured maritime facilities and/or airports.

In at least one case, an individual was able to become a law enforcement officer. In light of this information, ICE has said the Justice Department has made it a priority to investigate cases where individuals were able to obtain jobs of public trust or those involving government clearances.

Another DHS admission is that none of the 400,000 immigrants who have entered the country since 2010 have been pre-screened for HIV, the v***s that causes AIDS. Thanks to a change in policy made by the Obama administration, HIV screening is now voluntary for immigrants entering the U.S., and at least 15 percent of individuals coming into the country have chosen to forgo these checks.

Among immigrants, estimates are that as many as 315 cases of HIV per year go undocumented due to this policy. Anyone who’s diagnosed at a later date is then subject to be treated using federal and state taxpayers’ money. And of course, in the meantime, anyone not knowing their status is liable to infect other people unknowingly.

According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), one in eight HIV-positive Americans is unaware of their status. Prior to 2010, would-be immigrants diagnosed with HIV were classified as “inadmissible” under Class A government medical regulations.

In a very few cases, HIV-positive immigrants could apply for special waivers from DHS. According to the CDC, in 2009, 186 people were admitted to the U.S. via these waivers. In 2014, 6,000 Americans died from AIDS, and the disease remains a significant public health issue in the U.S. The reason given by the Obama administration for the change in policy at the time was a promise made to gay advocacy organizations.

It’s clear that the government under Obama has made more than its share of errors regarding immigration policies.

Recently, the Spanish division of the ICE tweeted the wrong date for the year of adoption of the U.S. Declaration of Independence, altering it from 1778 to 1779. “This is not [a] middle school [type] of ‘blooper,’” said Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies.

He noted that the ICE is in charge of testing new immigrants on this very information. “This is really kind of disturbing. This is almost creepy.”

Of course, for the Obama administration, it may be par for the course. In 2012, at a campaign stop, it was the president himself who referred to the country as having “57 states.” Coincidentally, the number of Muslim countries in the world at the time was 57.

Why aren't these people fired? Instead they get bonuses.

This is a 17 minute video created by an MD and explains all the signs of Parkinson and Hillary Clinton. Based upon this video's content and Hillary's current health condition, she may drop out or be replaced by someone else.

I hope that she doesn't hang in so long and then drops out before November 2nd. According to existing law; if that happens, Obama can postpone the e******n and remain in office as President until such time another Democrat candidate can be selected and new e******n protocol is met. God help us if that happens!

Watch this and you will see my concern. I sure hope this has not been the plan all along to keep Obama in office longer.

Today the Middle East , Indonesia and Malaysia all have s***ery! Saudi Arabia probably has the greatest amount. Back in the late 70s and early 80s, I charted jet aircraft for the Hajj. Many of those planes would come back half full. The Hajj is the biggest s***e trading event and takes place yearly.

The Obama administration rewards sanctuary states, counties and cities that shield violent i*****l i*******ts from deportation with hundreds of millions of dollars in federal grants and one of the biggest recipients recently made headlines for protecting a serial criminal who murdered a young woman. The money flows through the Department of Justice (DOJ), the agency responsible for enforcing the law and defending the interests of the United States. The DOJ is also charged with providing federal leadership in preventing and controlling crime, according to its mission statement, and seeking just punishment for those guilty of unlawful behavior.

Apparently this doesn’t apply to local governments that support the president’s broad open borders policies, even when they violate federal law. The DOJ doled out $342,168,401 to 10 sanctuary states and cities that proudly reject federal claims for criminal i*****l a***ns earmarked for removal, according to the agency’s independent watchdog. Among them is Connecticut, a trailblazer in the sanctuary movement that received more than $69 million in grants from the DOJ. Connecticut has long protected i*****l i*******ts with sanctuary policies and even offers them special drivers’ licenses, known as Drive Only. The state also gives i*****l a***ns discounted tuition at public colleges and universities and authorities work hard to restrict the feds from deporting i*****l i*******ts. Last year an i*****l i*******t who had spent 17 years in prison for attempted murder stabbed a 25-year-old woman to death in Norwich, a city of about 40,000 residents. The murderer had been earmarked for deportation at least three times.

California, also a renowned sanctuary state that offers i*****l i*******ts a number of taxpayer-funded perks, topped the list with $132,409,635 in DOJ grants. Judicial Watch has investigated the state’s illegal sanctuary policies for years and back in 2008 launched a California public records request with the San Francisco Sheriff’s Department to obtain the arrest and booking information on Edwin Ramos, an i*****l a***n from El Salvador who murdered three innocent American citizens. Ramos was a member of a renowned violent street gang and had been convicted of two felonies as a juvenile (a gang-related assault on a bus passenger and the attempted robbery of a pregnant woman) yet he was allowed to remain in the country. Last year Judicial Watch obtained records showing that violent crime—including murder and rape—in the Bay area has skyrocketed since the San Francisco Sheriff and City Council expanded i*****l a***n sanctuary policies in 2013. Under the ordinance San Francisco law enforcement agencies are required to ignore most U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainers. Judicial Watch is also investigating whether the city violated the law again with its sanctuary policy that led to the release of Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez, an i*****l i*******t deported five times who gunned down Kate Steinle at one of the most popular tourist spots in San Francisco.

Two cities—New York and Chicago—got $60,091,942 and $28,523,222 respectively from the DOJ and Philadelphia followed with $16,505,312. South Florida’s Miami-Dade County received $10,778,815, Milwaukee, Wisconsin got $7,539,572, Cook County, Illinois $6,018,544, Clark County, Nevada $6,257,9851 and Orleans Parish, Louisiana $4,737,964. In some cases elected officials in these municipalities brag about defying federal i*********n l*ws. One, the mayor of Chicago, is mentioned in the DOJ Inspector General report for publicly stating: “We are not going to turn people over to ICE, and we are not going to check their immigration status.” The city also prohibits employees from cooperating with federal immigration authorities, the report says.

Other recipients of our taxpayer dollars do the same with no consequences. The Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Office has an “ICE Procedures” policy that states the agency shall not initiate any immigration status investigation into individuals in their custody or provide the feds with information on an inmate’s release date or address. Philadelphia’s mayor issued an executive order stating that the pending release of the subject of an ICE immigration detainer shall not be provided to the agency unless the person has been convicted of a felony and New York enacted a law years ago restricting jail personnel from communicating with ICE regarding an inmate’s release date, incarceration status or court dates. The law resulted in ICE closing its office on Riker’s Island and ceasing operations on any other NYC Department of Corrections property, the report reveals. It’s beyond comprehension that these law-breaking local governments are being rewarded with federal funds distributed by the agency responsible for enforcing the law.

The Obama administration’s failure to protect the southern border has allowed Mexican cartels to smuggle record amounts of drugs into the United States, especially heroin, which is increasingly popular in the U.S. Once the drugs get smuggled north Mexican traffickers use street, prison and outlaw motorcycle gangs to distribute them throughout the country much like a legitimate business enterprise.This has been going on for years and there seems to be no end in sight, according to a disturbing new report published by the Congressional Research Service (CRS), the nonpartisan agency that provides Congress with policy and legal analysis. “Mexican t***snational criminal organizations are the major suppliers and key producers of most illegal drugs smuggled into the United States,” the CRS states in its new report. “They have been increasing their share of the U.S. drug market—particularly with respect to heroin.” The bulk of the heroin smuggled into the United States t***sits across the Southwest border, the CRS writes, revealing that “from 2010 to 2015 heroin seizures in this area more than doubled from 1,016 kg to 2,524 kg.”

The trend mirrors the increase in overall seizures throughout the U.S., the CRS figures show. For instance, federal arrests and prosecutions of heroin traffickers have skyrocketed with 6,353 heroin-related arrests in 2015. Additionally, the number of individuals sentenced for heroin trafficking offenses in federal courts has increased by almost 50%, the report says. There are at least eight major Mexican drug trafficking organizations operating in the United States with the Sinaloa Cartel being the most active, the CRS reveals. “Mexican t***snational criminal organizations (MTCOs) remain the greatest criminal drug threat to the United States; no other group can challenge them in the near term.” They operate sophisticated enterprises, using nearly 100 U.S. gangs in their cross-border crimes, government figures show.

Because the Mexican cartels move their drugs through the Southwest border, western states have become part of what’s known as the “heroin t***sit zone,” the CRS report says. “In addition, as the Mexican traffickers take on a larger role in the U.S. heroin market, and expand their operations to the East Coast, authorities have seen black tar heroin emerge in the Northeastern United States, where it had rarely been seen,” the report states. Large quantities of a synthetic opioid known as F******l are also entering the U.S. primarily via the Mexican border, though the drug also comes from China. F******l is 25-40 times more potent than heroin and 50-100 times more potent than morphine.

Undoubtedly, there’s an epidemic of drug abuse in the U.S. but cutting off the source would obviously improve the crisis. This may seem like common sense, but the CRS gently reminds legislators to consider it. “Policymakers may examine U.S. efforts to combat heroin trafficking as a means of combatting opioid abuse in the United States,” the CRS writes in its report. “Policymakers may also look at existing federal strategies on drug control, t***snational crime, and Southwest border crime to evaluate whether they are able to target the current heroin trafficking threat.” Among the common-sense suggestions listed in the document is “securing U.S. borders.” It comes from the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP), which has made disrupting drug trafficking and production a priority.

The impact of Mexican drug cartels has been well documented for some time in a number of government audits, even as the Obama administration insists the southern border is secure. Less than a year ago the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) issued a report confirming that the majority of illegal drugs in the United States come from Mexico and Mexican traffickers remain the greatest criminal threat to the United States. They’re classified as T***sitional Criminal Organizations (TCOs) by the government and for years they’ve smuggled in enormous quantities of heroin, cocaine, methamphetamine and marijuana.

The possibility of a r****d e******n has been much in the news lately. What the media haven’t reported as eagerly is the Obama administration’s persistent efforts, using your tax dollars, to corruptly influence the e******n.

Months after the Obama administration spent $19 million to register new immigrant v**ers that will likely support Democrats in November, it’s dedicating an additional $10 million in a final push as the p**********l e******n approaches. The money is distributed by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the Homeland Security agency that oversees lawful immigration, to organizations that help enhance pathways to naturalization by offering immigrants free citizenship instruction, English, U.S. history and civics courses. Officially, they’re known as “citizenship integration grants.”

Since 2009 USCIS has doled out $63 million in these grants to prepare more than 156,000 resident immigrants in dozens of states for U.S. citizenship, according to the agency’s figures. Besides the free classes, Uncle Sam also offers immigrants free “naturalization legal services,” the latest USCIS grant announcement states. “Recipient organizations serve both traditional immigrant destinations and new immigrant getaway cities in 21 states,” the USCIS document reads.

The latest $10 million investment will prepare approximately 25,000 residents from more than 50 countries, according to the agency. More than a dozen states—including California, New York, Florida, Washington and Ohio—with large resident immigrant populations are being targeted as well as cities with huge immigrant populations such as Miami, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco and Washington D.C.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been aggressive in promoting its citizen integration grant program this year, offering large sums to recruit new groups that can offer immigrants the services they need to become citizens. Clearly, the ultimate goal is qualifying as many immigrants as possible to v**e since they tend to cast b****ts for Democrats.

“We intend to award about $1 million to first-time recipients in the Citizenship and Integration Grant Program for fiscal year 2016,” the agency’s grant announcement states. “If you represent one of these organizations, or know of an interested organization, we strongly encourage that organization to consider applying.

Additionally, another $9 million will fund programs that provide both citizenship instruction and instruction and naturalization application services.” Some might consider this a cash giveaway.

This is part of a broader, government-wide initiative launched by the president to “strengthen federal immigrant and refugee integration infrastructure.” The mission is to facilitate life in the U.S. for immigrants and refugees by enhancing pathways to naturalization, building welcoming communities and providing “mobile immigration services in underserved communities.”

To carry out this important mission Obama created a special Task Force on New Americans chaired by his Domestic Policy Director, Cecilia Muñoz, the former vice president of the powerful open borders group National Council of La Raza (NCLR).

Millions of taxpayer dollars have funded the task force’s various enterprises, including multilingual media campaigns promoting immigrant rights. The goal is to “strengthen civic, economic and linguistic integration and to build strong and welcoming communities,” according to a report issued by the task force. In the end communities will be strengthened by welcoming all residents, the administration assures.

Practically every federal agency is participating in the effort by contributing resources and creating programs to help immigrants. For example the Department of Labor (DOL) is implementing “new workforce programs” for the “new Americans” and the Department of Education is promoting “funding opportunities” to assure that the immigrants “are provided the tools they need to succeed.”

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is collaborating with other agencies to release a career and credentialing toolkit on “immigrant-focused career-pathways programs.” The Department of Justice (DOJ) and USCIS are making sure the new Americans have worker rights and protections and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is launching a two-year pilot to assure that non English speakers have “meaningful access to housing programs” subsidized by American taxpayers.

I really don't think that is it.

Again Kevyn, you prove yourself to be little more than a giant rectum! There is no opinion expressed there at all by me. However, your comment seems to indicates that you believe Putin is not a Russian Patriot. Do you believe this to be a comparison of two countries?
If so , it's not, but of two people. Your naive nonsense and lack of understanding of the internal dynamics of the people, politics, and geography makes me think you are one the educated, perhaps an educator, that has been taught to think in one manner and what to think. It is all part of the dumbing done process. Today college educated = brainwashed!
