Viva la Raza! The Republicans, who haven't publicly crossed paths since June, address a gala of prominent Latino business leaders at a Newport Beach club. When Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina clinched their party's nominations for governor and U.S. Senate in June, Whitman proclaimed on stage that their joint effort would be the Democrats' worst nightmare. But they have gone separate ways on the campaign trail, never publicly crossing paths again until Friday night at a gala of a prominent group of Latino business leaders in Newport Beach. The brief back-to-back speeches by the two former Silicon Valley chief executives at the black-tie gathering of the Hispanic 100, a group ...

The State Department has not delivered diplomatic assistance to the widow of a man shot down by drug lords while on a jet ski trip on the U.S.-Mexico border, U.S. Rep. Ted Poe said Wednesday. Poe, R-Texas, whose district contains the U.S. side of border-straddling Falcon Lake, said Tiffany Hartley did not even receive help from the U.S. consulate in Mexico to file a complaint against members of the Zeta drug cartel that is suspected of shooting David Hartley while the couple was skiing through the Mexican side of the border weeks ago. "There seems to be inefficiency on this issue. She shouldn't have to be filing charges" on her own, Poe said, noting that the Mexican ...
When it comes to foreign money flowing into campaigns, Obama has a short memory

Based on a single, poorly sourced article in Think Progress - a rabidly partisan blog that is an offshoot of the liberal think tank Center for American Progress - President Obama laid into Republicans for allowing "foreign money" to be used to fund campaigns against him, specifically, dues money from foreign countries paid to the Chamber of Commerce.The problem? The story by Think Progress is (not surprisingly) almost certainly untrue. But a closer examination shows that there is little evidence that what the chamber does in collecting overseas dues is improper or even unusual, according to both liberal and conservative election-law lawyers and campaign finance documents.In fact, ...
Investigation Discovers Lou Dobbs Hired At Least Five Undocumented Immigrants To Work At His Estates

Author, radio host, and TV personality Lou Dobbs — who ended his long career at CNN this past November with an $8 million severance pay package — made his name in public life by railing against undocumented immigrants. Dobbs has always reserved special derision for illegal employers, who he says are “acting against the national interests, acting against the law in every respect.” Now, a new investigation by journalist Isabel Macdonald for The Nation Magazine has found that the notorious pundit “has relied for years on undocumented labor for the upkeep of his multimillion-dollar estates and the horses he keeps for his 22-year-old daughter, Hillary, a champion show ...

He said the kidnapping was reported by a man who had been with the group. The man told ...

Billionaire Rupert Murdoch, whose media empire includes the conservative cable channel Fox News, made the case to Congress Thursday that a broad immigration overhaul – with a path to citizenship for millions of illegal immigrants – is critical to “strengthening America’s economy.” His testimony before a House Judiciary Committee immigration panel came as Democratic Sens. Robert Menendez of New Jersey and Patrick Leahy of Vermont introduced a comprehensive immigration reform bill that includes a path to legalization, a temporary worker program, workplace and border enforcement measures and the DREAM Act, which failed in the Senate last week.

A Customs and Border Protection Officer stationed in Calexico was one of two men arrested by federal agents Thursday and charged with bribery and conspiracy to smuggle drugs through the port of entry, the U.S. Attorney’s Office announced. A court complaint says that the officer, 30-year-old Oscar Osbaldo Ortiz Martinez, took $22,000 in bribes arranged by a second man, Victor Manuel Silva Jr., to allow vehicles he thought were smuggling drugs through the entry lane he was assigned to at the Calexico border crossing. Ortiz was arrested Thursday as he went to a meeting to pick up what he thought would be $30,000 in bribe money. Silva was arrested later that day. Court records say that ...

Sept. 21, 2010 Updated: 2:05 p.m. (DREAM Act) Student Immigration Bill DIES In U.S. Senate BY CINDY CARCAMO An act that would have given U.S. residency to certain students and military hopefuls who are in the country illegally died today in the Senate. Senators voted 56 to 43 for the bill, falling short of the 60 votes needed to bring it to the floor. The vote comes after activists ratcheted up their lobbying Monday, generating thousands of calls and faxes to members of Congress in a last-minute push for the DREAM Act. Democratic Senate leaders had wanted the DREAM Act – Development, Relief and Education for Minor Aliens – to be included as an amendment to the Defense ...

The controversial measure is being pushed by Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.), who bypassed usual Senate procedures by including it in a defense reauthorization bill. Opponents consider the Dream Act a form of amnesty and have accused Reid and other Democrats of using it to appeal to Hispanic voters, an important constituency, as the midterm elections approach. Supporters, who include retired Gen. Colin L. Powell and other military officials, have argued that the measure is long overdue, humane and practical. The Dream Act would open the door to citizenship for undocumented immigrants younger than 36 who arrived in the United States as children, have lived here for five ...

Want to hear an unexplored way to relieve American taxpayers, while reducing billions of dollars of public spending by cash-strapped states and localities? Enforce our immigration laws. The state of Arizona is having to fight the Obama Administration as hard as it fights illegal aliens and the cartels that smuggle them into the United States. There’s no support whatsoever to help reduce illegals’ fiscal burden. The Obama Justice Department has sued to block the state’s new, wildly popular S.B. 1070. The administration also has sued Arizona over its employment verification law. Obamaites have targeted Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio with trumped-up charges of mistreating criminal ...

In this photo released by NBC, former Secretary of State Gen. Colin Powell, retired, speaks on NBC's "Meet the Press" in Washington Sunday, Sept. 19, 2010. Powell, a moderate Republican who endorsed Barack Obama in 2008, says the president's critics should be going after him on policy, not "nonsense." Powell said Sunday that "fringe" elements on the right are taking a low road when they label Obama a foreign-born Muslim and peddle other theories about non-American influences on the president's character.

How Many Illegal Aliens Are in the U.S.? - An Alternative Methodology for Discovering the Numbers (Summer 2007) EXCERPTS: The Department of Homeland Security estimated in December 2003 that 8 million to 12 million illegal aliens resided in the United States and 700,000 new illegals enter and stay each year. These official estimates are somewhat suspect and may represent significant undercounts, as they are produced by the very entity responsible for the tidal wave of illegal aliens entering our nation —the United States Government. An alternative methodology is used here to estimate a range of numbers of illegals that is likely more realistic. Methodology The precise number of ...

The day before yesterday, Representive Kendrick Meek (D-FL), and also a nominee for U.S. Senate, hand delivered a letter to LeMieux. This part of Meek's letter says it all: It is important to note that the State of Florida stands much to gain from the passage of this legislation. By alowing certain youths an opportunity at a solid education and a pathway to citizenship, we can stop the current cycle of immigrant poverty and ...

RANCHO CUCAMONGA - The Catholic Diocese of San Bernardino is defending its decision to hold an event in the city that rallied support around legislation that would aid undocumented young people. The gathering at Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church aimed to raise awareness and promote advocacy for the DREAM Act, said John Andrews, spokesman for the Diocese of San Bernardino. The Development, Relief and Education of Alien Minors Act would help young illegal immigrants who are illegally in the United States enlist in the military, attend college or acquire citizenship. The youth would have to meet certain requirements, such as being high school graduates and of good moral character. But ...

Matthew Partridge: The Catholic church is one of the few mainstream institutions standing up for immigrants Wednesday, 08 September 2010 One of the most depressing trends in British and American politics is that opponents of immigration are currently winning the debate. In Britain the government is in the process of instituting, over the objections on Vincent Cable, a draconian cap on non-EU immigration. Similarly, all the major candidates for the Labour leadership have hardened their stances on immigration, although David Miliband has had the courage to criticise the cap. The situation is even worse in American since Jan Brewer's crackdown on suspected illegal immigrants turned her ...

This is the 3rd night in a row...Their current excuse for taking to the streets is the fatal shooting by LAPD of a drunken Guatemalan, who was likely here illegally, was threatening people with a knife 3 days ago, in broad daylight. Generally this would not be breaking news, but since television news media in LA is all but ignoring this, I thought it should go in breaking news. This is occurring in Westlake District, just west of downtown...LAPD ...

California GOP Kills Resolution Supporting Arizona Immigration Law

As more states consider copying Arizona's harsh anti-immigration law, at least one state's GOP leaders decided against taking a stance on the measure. The California Republican party did not endorse Arizona's SB 1070 during its semiannual convention this weekend, despite a push for a vote of support by conservative activists in the state. The party skipped over a resolution that would have stated the party's support for SB 1070 and Proposition 187, a 1994 effort to cut public benefits to undocumented immigrants. But gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman has stated opposition to both SB 1070 and Proposition 187, and there was some concern last week that her stance would cause ...

FORT HANCOCK, Texas — After a bad day on the job as a Border Patrol agent, Eddie DeLaCruz went home and began discussing with his wife how to celebrate her upcoming birthday. Then he casually pressed his government-issued handgun under his chin and pulled the trigger. "It was the ugliest sound I ever heard in my life," his widow, Toni DeLaCruz, recalled of that day last November. "He just collapsed." A month later, one of DeLaCruz's colleagues at the Fort Hancock border post put a bullet through his head, too. Suicides including these have set off alarm bells throughout the agency responsible for policing the nation's borders. After nearly four years ...

After 16 days of denials by Laredo law enforcement and local officials regarding a Mexican drug cartel takeover of a Laredo area ranch, a Texas police blotter proves the alleged incident did in fact happen and that multiple agencies responded to the scene of a seized U.S. ranch. Think about it for a moment. One of the most brutal drug cartels operating in Mexico crossed the U.S. border and took a ranch from its lawful owner. Intimidation has arrived along the southern border. The police blotter tells the story of the events that unfolded on July 23rd; “On Friday 7-23-10 Laredo Webb informed that their county SWAT Team is conducting an operation in the Mines Rd. area. ...
