Immigration Agents Sue Napolitano

We need more of this.

Hey folks,

Here is something else that is not getting much air time on the news, or in print. Too bad. We need more of this. Most of you know that Obama, not being able to get the Dream Act through Congress, decided to grant Amnesty to Illegals. We all know why. He is trying to get the votes. He wants these Illegals to get an ID, and become legal enough to Vote prior to the election.

Many have decided, you know what, screw that. It is Federal Law in this country, you come here LEGALLY, we welcome you. You come here illegally, get caught, you go bye bye. It really is not a hard concept. Remember a while back we talked about the costs. Back on July 7, 2010, I said this...
Let's leave aside for a second, the criminal impact, which is VERY predominate in boarder States. From Home Invasions, Rapes, Murders, Drunk Driving Deaths, ETC., and lets just look at the COST of Illegal Aliens on the State level.
Arizona has a budget gap of 2.4 Billion. They spend 2.5 billion on illegal Aliens. Yup. That means if there were none, they would have a Budget SURPLUS. California? They have a gap of 19.6 BILLION. The are upside down big time. We already knew this. But how much do you think they spend on Illegal Aliens? 21.7 BILLION! Check out YOUR State here.
So it makes sense that some of these states are saying enough. If Obama and crew will not enforce the law, they will. Then of course, Obama sues the states. However, what about those Federal Workers, who's job it is to enforce the Law? We have a President that ignores the laws he doesn't like, or that he feels will help him Politically. What do they do now? No President is above the law. None. No President has the right to dictate what laws are to be enforce and what ones are not to be.

So what do you do? Your job is to enforce the law. Yet, when you do, you are now getting reprimanded. What do you do? Well, if you are Federal Immigration Agents, you do the only thing you really can do. Sue.
Ten federal immigration agents have filed suit against Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano claiming recent directives are forcing them to break the law and ignore their duties when it comes to deporting illegal immigrants.
Like like ignore any calls from Arizona. Right?
The suit was filed Thursday in Texas federal court by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials. It challenges recent directives allowing some illegal immigrants -- particularly non-felons and those who came to the U.S. as children -- to stay and, in some cases, get work permits.

The suit, obtained by Fox News, says the agents are being forced to "violate federal law." It says the new directive "unconstitutionally usurps and encroaches upon the legislative powers of Congress." ICE Director John Morton is also named as a defendant.
Constitution? Constitution? We don't need no stinking Constitution. You do as we say. Ya hear me?
Kris Kobach, lead attorney on the case, equated the move to give thousands of illegal immigrants a reprieve to the failed Fast and Furious gun-walking operation.

"In both instances, the Obama administration ordered federal law enforcement agents to break the law, to ignore the laws that they're supposed to enforce, and, in the case of the ICE agents, to actually break federal laws that say you're supposed to deport certain people," he said. "And in each case, the Obama administration seems to be doing so for political reasons."
Of course he is.
Kobach, the Kansas secretary of state, is also an adviser to Mitt Romney and a co-author of the Arizona illegal immigration law.
Good. There is hope with Mitt Romney.
DHS spokesman Matt Chandler, reacting to the suit, stressed that the current policy allows the department to focus on serious offenders -- he said ICE removed a record 216,000 criminal aliens in fiscal 2011.

"DHS uses prosecutorial discretion to assist in focusing vigorously on the removal of individuals who are convicted criminals, repeat immigration law violators, and recent border crossers," he said. "This policy is a temporary measure; Congress must still act to provide a permanent solution to fix the broken immigration system."
I do not care if you call it temporary or anything else. It IS illegal and unconstitutional.
Napolitano defended the new rules during testimony last month before the House Judiciary Committee.

"These policies promote the efficient use of our resources ensuring that we do not divert them away from the removal of convicted criminals by pursuing the removal of young people who came to this country as children and who have called no other country home," she said.
It doesn't matter what you think, you twit. It does matter what you believe is the right thing to do. It does matter what your lawless Boss thinks, feels, or directs you to do. It IS THE LAW. Your job is not to question it, but to do it. To enforce it. To protect the LEGAL Citizens from those who should not even be here to begin with.
The Supreme Court has recognized the ability of the federal government to use what's known as "prosecutorial discretion" in the enforcement of immigration law. In the recent case over the Arizona immigration law, the court defended the government's ability to make "some discretionary decisions."

In the suit, the agents are asking a federal judge to block the directives in question, saying they amount to an end-run around Congress and violate the separation of powers between the Legislative and Executive branches.
Yup.
Republican lawmakers released a flurry of statements Thursday backing up the suit and challenging the administration policy.

"The Obama administration's amnesty program not only rewards lawbreakers, it also forces ICE agents to violate federal law. ICE agents should enforce our immigration laws and apprehend illegal immigrants. But the Obama administration makes it impossible for ICE agents to do their jobs," House Judiciary Committee Chairman Lamar Smith, R-Texas, said in a statement.

Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., has also raised concern about the possibility of ICE agents being compelled to release illegal immigrants with misdemeanor records.

"It is a sad day when our nation's law enforcement officers are left with no recourse but to file suit against the administration and its political appointees," he said in a statement.
I'll be watching this closely. We need more of this. We need more States, Federal Workers, and people in general to say enough. President Obama, you WILL uphold the Constitution of the United States, and you will do your Job as President, which the number one Jiob description is to keep Americans safe, or, we will simply ignore what you say and or do. If it is impossible to ignore you, then we will fight back. We will sue you. Hopefully, we only have to worry about this stupidity for another 70 days.

  1. Everybody now should know the financial consequences of illegal immigration? Just remember that any amnesty this Presidents executive orders enacts is just another giant magnet to draw my foreigners here, looking for a better quality of life or here to scam the American taxpayer and public welfare programs. Whether it’s Obama’s Dream Act, Sanctuary cities, voter fraud, Chain Migration or just plain old illegal immigrants dodging agents at the border, just arriving in America, as an intentional overstay supposed visitor by plane or ferry. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano states it would be too costly to deport the underestimated 11 million illegal immigrant invaders? Nevertheless her agency stays tight-lipped about the rising hundred billion dollar figure, which is a forcibly extracted tax annually. There are very few issues that are not unrelated with these people who should never be here. However, it all goes back to the inattention of Democrats and Republicans who abused their oath of office, after the 1986 Immigration Control and Reform law. The policies composing of the passage of this bill was dismissed, which was to do with stricter control of business hiring and building a much sturdier fence.

    The Democrats refused to appropriate the money, so nothing was done? Now we have over 20 million aliens settled here illegally. But why even bother with any tough laws, when there is no real punishment? I am absolutely sure there was no intention from either party to stop cheap labor for Republicans, or illegal vote collections for the Democrats. If Obama wins a second term there is sure to be a comprehensive amnesty, with American taxpayers having even a larger chunk taken from the payroll check. And to be honest I am not even sure of the Republicans agenda, as that tends to flip-flop? But what I am sure about is the plan of the TEA PARTY if they can eject many Democrats and Republican incumbents and replace them. It’s already happening and by infiltrating the Republican Party can politically persist that the “LEGAL WORKFORCE ACT (E-VERIFY) and the BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP LAW” finds passage enacted.

    THE MORE TEA PARTY LEADERSHIP IN CONGRESS, THE MORE INFLUENCE?

    Both bills if passed can insure the removal of illegal aliens from the workplace and stop the smuggling of children into America, to gain citizenship, which has an astronomic financial payout by states. Every American voter has a chance to alter the direction of Americans future. Under Obama resurgence as President in November heads us towards Socialist Republic, that all of our nation will depend on government empowerment. The US counterpart of “freeloaders” who have no integrity would rather live of the rest of us. Judge for yourself by contacting the thousands of local TEA PARTY chapters, or read the conservative manifesto of fighting for our liberties as consigned to us by the founding fathers. The TEA PARTY DOT ORG has all the information you need to decide your vote in less than three months. You might also be concerned with Obama’s citizenship, for other than the irregularities in the birth record there are many questions that remain unanswered. As an individual, I have read some of these bewildering pieces of evidence that have stayed concealed until now. You too can study the facts at the above mentioned website and judge this odd situation.
