*As if* anyone actually thought he was going to deport them….

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is holding off for now on seeking new legal authority to send unaccompanied migrant kids back home faster.
The approach is a change from what the White House has signaled and follows criticism from immigration advocates who said the administration’s planned approach was too harsh.  It was confirmed Monday by two congressional aides who spoke on condition of anonymity ahead of a formal announcement.
Obama intends to ask Congress on Tuesday for more than $2 billion in emergency spending to deal with the children who’ve been arriving by the thousands from Central America. (more…)

Several DHS agencies are involved in apprehending, processing, and repatriating UAC, while the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is responsible for the care and custody of UAC. The Executive Office of Immigration Review (EOIR) in the U.S. Department of Justice conducts the immigration removal proceedings.

Health and Human Services (HHS) is assigned responsibility from President Obama to shelter “Unaccompanied Alien Children” (UAC’s).   In the email below FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) is requesting facility recommendations for the housing of the UAC’s.
Here is the secretive guideline email requesting help in locating facilities. Note the paragraph:

…”This is an unprecedented event that requires unique approaches to temporarily house children until they can be discharged to a sponsor while awaiting judicial proceedings”….

Nothing about this three page email even remotely infers the possibility of deportation back to their home country.

@1:40 The common sense delivery – “we can’t take care of our own, what possible sense does it make to put more people into the system”…

Update – Numbers revised: 82 shot, 14 killed in 84 hours during July Fourth weekend in Chicago (link)

CHICAGO – At least 11 people were killed and 60 others wounded citywide in shootings in Chicago over the Fourth of July weekend, reports CBS Chicago. There were also six police-involved shootings, two of which involved teens who were killed.
In the most recent fatal shooting, an unidentified 44-year-old woman was shot at a barbecue around 12:30 a.m. Monday in the city’s Morgan Park neighborhood, according to the station. She was shot as she leaned into a car in a parking lot and was pronounced dead at the scene.
“While to date we have had the fewest murders since 1963, one victim is too many and there is clearly much more work to be done,” said police spokesman Martin Maloney. (more…)

Todd Starnes – TEXAS – Are the thousands of illegal immigrant kids housed in detention facilities happy and well fed — or are they living in disease-infested compounds shrouded in secrecy?
Well, it depends on who you ask.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) seems to think the children coming across the southern border are remarkably healthy. It’s a sentiment shared by BCFS — the Texas-based agency formerly known as Baptist Child & Family Services contracted to run camps at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio and Fort Sill in Oklahoma.

My source said there are children showing classic tuberculosis symptoms — spitting up blood, a constant cough and chest pain.

More than 7,000 children have been processed through the two camps, according to a BCFS official. They allege that only 119 children have been treated for lice, 22 for scabies, and one for the H1N1 Flu. BCFS says the most common illnesses seen at Lackland are fever, headache, upper respiratory cold and ingrown toenails.
However, at least a half dozen anonymous sources, including nurses and health care providers who worked at Lackland, allege that the government is covering up what they believe to be a very serious health threat. (more…)

Important factoid as you watch – “Illinois” Senator Dick Durbin blocked the use a Chicago facility to house some of the disease infested illegals.

I could spend all day deconstructing these insufferable dolts.
You’ll note he said “Bush signed law in 2008” ? I’m assuming you heard that.
That would be the “William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008“, or more specifically signed by Bush December 23rd of 2008.
Hmmm… wait a minute….  December 2008?  By chance, what do you think happened in November of 2008 ?
(Hint: Election)
HR7311 – William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008 – Wait, that makes this a lame duck signing right before leaving office….. and who was in control of both Houses of Congress – who would have constructed such a bill ?
Hmmmm… perhaps, maybe, per chance… Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid in the Senate with… wait for it,… a filibuster proof super-majority.
And when was the bill HR7311 voted and passed by the Democrats in congress…. wait for it… Brought to floor on December 9th 2008 and voted upon on December 10th 2008. After the previous month’s election that President Elect Barack Obama won. And as the Democrats knew they now held the House of Reps (Pelosi), the Senate (Reid) and the White House (Obama)….. Boy they moved fast on that one !
But wait, it gets even better…. (more…)

This entire media mantra around the illegal crossing of our border is getting on my last nerve.    Will someone please just call it like it is.

“We do that which is important to us”

President Obama has intentionally created this crisis to give leverage to his goals of changing the landscape of American social construct.   This administration is pushing for amnesty for illegal aliens, and consequentially the collapse their political opposition.   To reach that goal the current U.S. administration is intentionally asking illegal aliens to swarm our nations borders – and supporting them toward that end.
If President Obama wanted to stop the crisis, he could order it stopped in less than 48 hours.   He doesn’t.

Cliven Bundy 2.0 ? 

HOUSTON, Texas–As illegal immigrants continue to spill across the U.S.-Mexico border, federal authorities are attempting to relocate the migrants from South Texas to housing facilities in states across the nation. One such facility is located in Murrieta, California, where a large group of protesters recently blocked a bus full of migrants from arriving.
The protesters remain there, adamant that illegal immigrants don’t get dumped in their town. But soon the concerned citizens may be forced to step down–Breitbart Texas has learned that federal agents plan to arrive in Murrieta on Monday with riot gear to ensure that another busload makes it to the housing facility.  (more…)

Almost every single media outlet is opining the same talking points, “the immigration system is broken“.   Not true, we don’t have a broken immigration system, we have a broken enforcement system.
There is a legal process for immigration entry consideration into the United States.  It’s not new, and it’s not broken – IT’S JUST NOT BEING USED; and worse, the unlawful cross border entry is not being stopped.
The only broken part of immigration is the “border security”….

……It’s the border enforcement that’s broken.

Anyone ever heard of “Green Cards”, or “Alien Registration Cards”, or “residency visa’s”?  These legal processes for immigration entry are currently in place and have been for decades.    That system is not broken – it works well.
The problem is that illegal aliens don’t use the lawful application system – But that doesn’t mean the system is “broken”; it means the unlawful person chooses not to follow it.

Liberals love to use talking points to create a narrative of crisis they can then proclaim needs to be fixed.   And just about every time they enlist the Prava-esque media in the construct the professional conservative political class fall for it.

The USPS has a new slogan about shipping: “if it fits, it ships, for one fixed low rate” but -to be fair- technically they don’t actually promise the ‘delivery‘ part.
*NOTE* If you are watching this from Alabama, and you are waiting on a delivery of something, y’all might just need a Snickers bar.

RELATED:  7/7/14 – The Postal Regulatory Commission’s report says that 78.4 percent of USPS’s customers – either from households or small- to medium-sized businesses – said they were either very or mostly satisfied with the agency’s service.
USPS had been shooting for an 82.5 percent satisfaction rating. The agency conducts its own surveys to gauge customer approval that also include larger businesses. But those bigger companies were not included in the Postal Service’s overall satisfaction score.
The regulator’s report comes shortly after the Postal Service announced that it would shutter as many as another 82 mail processing centers starting early next year. (read more)
