TRUMP HAS A DELICIOUSLY NASTY SURPRISE IN STORE FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

Last week President Donald Trump signed a memorandum that ordered an end to “catch and release,” an insane Obama-era and Bush-era protocol that forced U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to release illegal immigrants caught crossing the porous southern border.

The program allowed illegals caught by ICE to avoid detainment so long as they agreed to appear in court later for formal deportation hearings. But barely any illegals ever showed up.

Last week’s move by the president marked the second time he ordered an end to “catch and release.” He tried stopping it last year, but due to a lack of resources, the program continued.

What makes the president’s most recent attempt to halt “catch and release” notable is that this time he “asked Defense Secretary Jim Mattis to produce a list of military facilities that could be used to detain illegal immigrants,” according to Reuters.

Cue the New York Post:
The federal government currently uses 109 facilities across the country to hold about 40,000 immigrants threatened with deportation, including six in New Jersey and one in upstate Orange County.
More than a third of these centers — which include county jails, for-profit lockups run by private contractors, and ICE’s own facilities — are already clustered along the southern border in Texas, Arizona and California.
But they contain far too little space to house the more than 300,000 border crossers who were apprehended in the southwest in 2017 alone.

Trump’s order could add an unspecified number of additional holding areas. Some of them, the order said, may be created in modified or re-purposed military facilities.

Because of Trump’s praiseworthy willingness to really tackle illegal immigration (versus just spouting talking points but never following through), illegals are now terrified.

“People are panicked,” Stephanie Teatro, the co-executive director of the Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition, said recently to The Washington Post. “People are terrified to drive. People are terrified to leave their homes.”

Many actual Americans are likewise horrified at the prospect of being murdered or raped by an illegal immigrant, but who cares, right?

The Post’s story specifically concerned a federal raid on a meat-processing plant in Tennessee that nabbed 86 illegals. Coupled with Trump’s decision to deploy the National Guard to the southern border, end “catch and release” and now push for the launch of Club Pablo (as I call them), illegals have every reason on Earth to be terrified.

And you know what? I ain’t one bit bothered by it. Those who choose to flout our laws deserve...

Female driver easily smuggles illegals into US, until horse trailer overturns in middle of California highway

A band of illegal bandits wound up in police custody Saturday afternoon after the horse trailer that had been carrying them crashed into the ground along Interstate 8 near the southern California border town of Campo.

The crash specifically occurred after the smuggler-driven Ford F-250 truck pulling the horse trailer began to fishtail, the California Highway Patrol told the The San Diego Union-Tribune.

The smuggler lost control of the truck, causing it to drift off the highway and come unfastened from the horse trailer.

When CHP officers arrived at the scene, they discovered that a number of illegals and the driver had fled. Enough remained that the officers dialed up U.S. Border Patrol.

Two illegal immigrant women and four illegal immigrant men were subsequently transported to local hospitals for treatment. Others were treated at the scene and put into custody.

It’s unclear exactly how many illegals were arrested. CHP claimed 18 were arrested, while Border Patrol put it at 19.

The use of tractors to smuggle illegals has become commonplace.

Just three months earlier Border Patrol agents working near the Texas border town of Laredo discovered a tractor-trailer with an astonishing 76 illegals from Mexico, Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala, as reported at the time by the San Antonio Express-News.

Border Patrol agents confirmed to San Diego station KGTV that the illegals had been Mexican nationals intent on...

Swamp Creatures Are TERRIFIED Of What Ben Carson Is Doing To Clean Up HUD

It’s been a year since Dr. Ben Carson was confirmed as Secretary for Housing and Urban Development. For most of its existence HUD is the cabinet-level agency probably best known for management challenges and the occasional corruption scandal involving local government officials abusing funds.

Liberals love HUD, because it hands out billions of dollars in the name of social justice. Not coincidentally, the money is often hard to account for, which is why it often ends up in the pocket of corrupt officials.

HUD has a long history of mismanagement and neglect. The agency’s financial statements are such a mess that the agency’s own Inspector General couldn’t complete an internal audit of the agency’s books. In fact, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) issued a report in 2016, based on numerous HUD IG and GAO audits over a 15-year period, in which it reported that the agency failed to implement multiple financial accountability recommendations. Additionally, the agency seemingly ignored recommendations to dedicate staff and implement and enforce policies to prevent waste, fraud, and abuse.

This level of institutional corruption is the very essence of the swamp. And indeed, the swamp dwellers are fighting to keep things the way they were.

Then Ben Carson moved in and started turning things around.

President Donald Trump’s new budget for Fiscal Year 2019 proposes to eliminate more than $4 billion in HUD grants, believing the money would be better managed, and more effective, if it originated at the state and local level. At the same time, Secretary Carson is implementing a culture of accountability and financial responsibility that the agency hasn’t experienced in years. This began with the hiring of a former partner with one of the big four accounting firms to serve as the agency’s chief financial officer. This vital role has not had a permanent occupant for more than a decade. The Secretary then directed the CFO to design and implement a transformation plan and lead an internal task force to combat waste, fraud, and abuse.

The secretary also set the agency on course to manage its existing resources in an accountable manner.

From the standpoint of swamp dwellers, accountable and lower HUD budgets are intolerable. However, Ben Carson is a very smart black conservative leader who understands the importance of applying conservative principles to our nation’s housing and urban planning needs. Nevertheless, the stakes are high. If he succeeds as an administrator in whipping HUD into shape, the progressive left will be humiliated. It’s no surprise that the mainstream media, leftist elected officials, and progressive, George Soros-funded groups attack...
