Immigration

The federal judge who presided over the trial of a Homeland Security director convicted of helping an illegal immigrant avoid deportation disagrees with the verdict and has ordered a new trial, saying it was “overkill” for the government to prosecute the official in the first place.

This sort of blatant judicial activism may seem unbelievable but this is a true story, straight out of the United States District Court in Massachusetts. A Reagan-appointed judge, Douglas P. Woodlock, didn’t like the outcome of a trial and has issued an order for a new one. His official reason is that he erred in his jury instructions and therefore a new trial is warranted, one in which appropriate jury instructions will be delivered. read on

As the Moroccan who plotted a suicide bombing inside the U.S. Capitol appeared in federal court, much of the mainstream media coverage omitted a crucial part of the story; this is the class of illegal immigrant the Obama Administration is sparing from deportation.

That’s because, like millions of others, the would-be assassin didn’t have a criminal record and thus never posed a threat to the public, according to the feds. Like many of the illegal aliens protected by the Obama Administration the attempted bomber, 29-year-old Amine El Khalifi, came to the U.S. as a kid (“through no fault of his own” as the open borders movement says). He could have easily qualified for discounted college tuition at a number of taxpayer-funded colleges and universities nationwide. read on

Boogai:  Yet the Feds (DOJ) are suing Arizona for trying to keep its citizens safe from murders and other violence perpetrated by the illegal alien invasion. Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer’s book “Scorpions for Breakfast” is a must-read.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) only takes action against a “small portion” of foreigners who overstay their visa—like several of the 9/11 terrorists—and allows hundreds of thousands to enter the United States without proper authorization under a provision that already relaxes scrutiny for dozens of countries.

It gets better. When congressional investigators demanded answers from the agency, officials said they had not yet completed a review of the cases to determine the extent of the risk. Your government at work! It’s as if nothing has been learned from the 2001 terrorist attacks, when security was so lax that Middle Eastern extremists slipped right through to plan their plot from inside the country. read on

In late fall, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill that will cost thousands of jobs for entry-level college students born here. At a time that our elected officials should be doing the opposite, they stick it to our guts and twist.

What have we done to deserve such an uncaring Congress? To purposely extend the number of visas to immigrants will cost exactly the number of visas they award. read on

Duh…

By Larry Sessions, Boogai Staff

Fifteen million citizens are out of work and 15 million people have illegally invaded our country taking jobs from citizens, duh.

Where is the rational basis for giving invaders unearned rights that should be reserved for citizens?

Are you aware that the purpose of La Raza, supported by many invaders, is to reclaim portions of our country for Mexico? Are you aware that 30 percent of all people in prison are illegal invaders? Are you aware the invaders cost the citizens $53 billion dollars for federal programs and most likely a similar cost at the state and local governments? Invaders are twice as likely to request welfare and other social services as citizens will request. read on

GOP Presidential Hopeful Mitt Romney took a hard-line position on the issue of Pres. Obama’s illegal-alien uncle during an interview with a Boston radio station. When asked if he would deport Onyango Obama who faces drunk driving charges in the Bay State, Romney said he would deport him.

Onyango Obama is Pres. Obama’s father’s half-brother. After being arrested for drunk driving, Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials at first held him without bail for allegedly ignoring a deportation order from 20 years ago. Like Obama’s father, Onyango Obama is from Kenya. read on

The U.S. Secretary of Labor has warned local governments that try to crack down in illegal immigration that they cannot deny undocumented workers minimum wage, which is guaranteed under a federal law that establishes pay in both the private and public sector.

Obama Labor Secretary Hilda Solis singled out Alabama this month, reminding state officials that their new law to curb illegal immigration invalidates employment contracts for undocumented aliens who are guaranteed the federal minimum wage under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Alabama’s law took effect earlier this year and requires everyone to prove legal residency to get a job, enroll in school, register a car or rent housing. read on

Attrition Through Enforcement

By Numbers USA

A California judge has fined the owner of a popular San Diego restaurant for hiring illegal-alien workers. Michel Malecot, owner of The French Gourmet, was spared jail time but must pay $400,000 for the illegal hirings. Federal prosecutors were seeking $650,000 in fines.

Over several years, federal agents discovered that Malecot had hired 91 illegal-alien workers. read on
