The administration of President Barack Obama has a new, politically correct word to describe illegal immigrants — “undocumented.”
Perhaps we should just stick with “illegals.” Because many of them continue to find new and shocking ways to break the law.
Rene Ortiz Quintana was recently busted in Phoenix after stealing nearly $30,000 from taxpayers in government benefits — by posing as a U.S. veteran in the country that wasn’t his, according to police.
Police reported Thursday that Quintana had been living illegally in the United States for approximately 50 years, and that in October 2012 he stole the identity of a deceased veteran, Ruben J. Gallardo, who passed away in 1994. This story was first reported by ABC15’s Joe Enea Thursday.
“Under that name, police say, he got an Arizona identification card, a state health card, a Phoenix health plan card and a VA choice card. The VA choice card was given to veterans in response to long delays in getting medical care from VA hospitals. It allows veterans to get medical care at Non-VA facilities,” Enea reported.
Quintana also collected Social Security benefits under the name for years.
In total, he stole $29,062.19 in benefits straight from taxpayer wallets.
Enea reports that Quintana has been charged with fraudulent schemes, theft and seven counts of identity theft along with six counts of forgery.
They come to take what they don’t deserve. They come to have many babies that taxpayers pay for. They dramatically increase crime. They lower wages.
you are so right If they wanted to be an American citizen they would come here the right way . I am tired of feeding clothing, Dr., dentist, cell phone, TV, housing you name it and they get it all for free for coming to this country illegal. A lot of people especially young people are yelling about Trump wanting to build a wall how about a wall of national guards police from the counties that border the Mexican country and not let them cross the border If they do turn them around and walk them back across the border where they belong.
And don’t forget, since he’s been caught, now taxpayers are on the hook until he’s released from prison.
It seems our lawmakers can’t come to the conclusion to round up and deport every last one of the “Illegal Immigrants”!
Since prison costs about $70,000 per person per year, it would have been less expensive to let him keep cheating us.
Perhaps Arizona bureaucrats should take the blame for enabling him by giving him an Arizona identification card, a state health card, and a Phoenix health plan card.
It would be a whole lot cheaper to keep the bastards out of the country…..period. We are inviting our own demise. In 30 more yrs. we will no longer be the country that has existed for the past 200. We will be Mexico or Giana or some other 3rd world shit hole.
When found guilty we have to eliminate them from this country forever.
Why should we even spend another penny? Send his butt back top Mexico drop him off at the boarder and be done with it. He doesn’t deserve even a minute longer in a country he abused so to speak. He is a criminal in so many ways that automatic deportation should be mandatory.
We should not drop him off at the Mexican border, where he will just turn around and re-enter unlawfully. We should drop him at the border between Mexico and Guatamala without ID. Mexico would rum him back to Guatamala until he could prove that he was a Mexican citizen. Of course Guatamala does not coddle illegal aliens either.
We should send him back to Mexico and demand that they put him in prison until every dime is paid back. Guard out borders with our own National Guard and shoot anyone who does not come across legally. Vehicles should be inspected coming across the border. Open trucks,
pull up the back seat of the car and look underneath the cars for illegals. That is how they are getting into our country. And make all people who are responsible for giving out ID Cards sign their name on every piece of paper. I bet allot of those identity cards being given out to illegals are linked to someone they know in the DMV and other government offices. Time to bust all of them.
This system is so screwed up that he will be sent back to Mexico and “his” benefit checks will be sent to his forwarding address.
We need to make sure Trump follows through with his promise to build the wall or fence or whatever it will take to keep the riffraff out of America in the same way Mexico keeps foreigners out of their country. Americans in Mexico with legal documents cannot work there because you must be a citizen in order to get a work permit. Funny how they can enforce their laws but America is called racists if we enforced our laws. With the costs of illegal immigration on the economy and society we might actually be better off financially to deport all 20 million or what ever the current total is. Millions could easily be found when the come to pick up their welfare checks and government credit cards.
Wasn’t he already on our side of the border? A wall wouldn’t have helped at all.
I’m sure that he was referring to to future riff-raff. In which case, a wall might prevent a future case similar to the one described in the article.
Great idea about those 20M’s to recover… just think of $1.00 from each, could help defray shipping cost. But the question would be when? I think it may take an additional V-VTF (Veteran-Voluntary Task Force) to assist current administration since they have failed with taxpayer’s $$$. I know you would join for the better of this good USA.
Vote democratic so you too can vote for a living instead of working for a living! How many people will vote to terminate their govt handouts? Instead they will vote to make sure they keep them? This is a win-win situation for d-crat and RINOs since they get to khe eep their positions as American royalty and get to “help” the poor. If anyone has hijacked anything in the good old US of A it is the dems and RINOs. And what they have hijacked the idea of “charity” and made it undocumented patronage. And the press has been sucked into their votex of scam. Perhaps because they were hoodwinked/seduced by promises of interviews with the royalty, or because they believed them? Patronage for the press is different then patronage for muslims and for illegals. But the establishment is flexible? They have no sense of right vs wrong, but live the fantasy of PC as their creator. It got them their job, not honoring their commitment to uphold the Constitution. Yes, the democrats and RINOs have made it easy for something like this to happen.
We are being overrun by design as the Establishment’s efforts in turning America into the NAU. Even the legitimate immigrants are fed up. I am sure they are suffering havoc, being mistaken for those who lack the respect for our Nation to actually do what it takes to adopt our heritage, learn our language, and pledge allegiance to our nation. Yet these illegal immigrant will wave their Native flags, with signs posted in their native language over rights that are not theirs for the taking.
I read an article the other day that pointed out that many of those protest signs, whether written in English or Spanish are provided by revcon.us … google them ! It is disgusting. Our own government has betrayed us in so many ways.
Just watch, the SOB who stole the deceased Vets identity will now go to an American jail (at American taxpayer cost) then probably be released right back into our streets to go do it again. Either way, we’ll still end up paying for him. I think we should start sending the bill to Mexico for every one of ‘their’ citizens we have sitting in our jails. Maybe then, Mexico would take steps to help guard our border. Actually, they’d have to do the guarding themselves, since Obama has made it next to impossible for OUR security personnel to do their jobs. I wish we could deport him with the rest of the illegals destroying our American Heritage and ignoring our borders.
If they do shoot them on site and throw their dead carcasses back across the border and let Mexico bury their criminals!
Shoot any headed north and give them a boot in the rear if they head south.
Right Elizabeth!! I hope to hell our new President will crack down on all ILLEGAL ALIENS in this country regardless if they have been here for 50+ years or not. GET THEM OUT and it will help with this disaster of our debt by not having us, the taxpayers, having to provide freebies to these ILLEGAL ALIEN criminals. Send all 20+ million back to their crappy country’s and if they want to return then need to do it LEGALLY!! AND, get rid of the so-called ‘Anchor Baby’ crap! Send them back wherever they came from.
This POS should be shot.
Before your recommendation William… we need to know who else is involved. Responsible individuals (that impostor was provided all kinds of help) should be convicted.
And now he will get free room, board, Hospital and dental in prison at the taxpayer cost of $30,000 a year.
Yes nothing will change he’s one of Obozo’s chosen.
THEY’RE FILTH……
I am so sick and tired of those “illegals” !!!! WHEN, FOR GOD’S SAKE ARE WE GOING TO STOP THIS? WE HAVE TO REVOKE, ELIMINATE, ERASE AND MAKE IT A CRIME TO CROSS THE BORDER ILLEGALLY, GIVE BIRTH AND BE REWARDED WITH CITIZENSHIP. PLEASE, PLEASE LET’S MAKE THE NEXT PRESIDENT, MR. DONALD TRUMP PROMISED HE WILL TAKE CARE OF THIS MATTER AS SOON AS HE GETS TO THE WHITE HOUSE. THANKS.
Im sure this is happening all over the United States and we as Americans will have to pay for it. Our taxes are going to” illegals” and their children and its going to get worse if Hilary gets elected. TRUMP for president….
You must have missed that bit where Trump brought over hundreds of them to build Trump Tower and the Trump casinos. Oh, and his wife’s shoe line and his clothes line … all made in China. Words are deceptive … actions are not.
He didn’t hire them… get updates more often before you make a comment….
Surprise! What else is new. This has been happening for years.
His sentence should be that he is forced in the Army to serve for the same period as the person did whom he stole his identification and if he refuses he goes to jail for the same period of time. If he misbehaves in the military he gets sent to the stockade.
Yes–forced to do the latrine detail as part of his term and have all the soldiers get to see the face of this scumbag who has been robbing a deceased mans earned benefits. Then–DEPORT his AZZ.
The Democrats are probably getting a whole new list of voters from the local graveyards.
would you like to serve along side this [expletive of your choice]? i surely would not.
But it (expletive) could be sent to the front lines with nothing but a pea shooter, as a lone scout with stern reminders of the ROE.
I totally agree with your response. Hopefully all this will change in a few months
All of that illegal activities going on right under the nose of our illegal President who doesn’t understand what an illegal resident is or simply doesn’t care. A rising crime rate and he wants to disarm the citizens guaranteeing the criminal he will be facing a
helpless victim. How stupid can an over-educated idiot get?
A predident cannot get elected “illegally” without a lot of help. If you know what is going on, do you not think Buffet, Turner, Diller, Oprah, et al, know? The most powerful people in the country put Obama there. These are people , most of whom you do not even know, that you cannot stop. They own the system. It’s all in the Bible. And the Bible also tells you how it all ends.
I am still puzzled at the fact that anyone who is in this country illegally can get all kinds of perks at taxpayers’ expense. There is something wrong with this picture when you realize that many people born and raised in this country fail to receive the same kind of consideration. How can someone who is not a citizen of this country get all kinds of freebies at taxpayers expense? Just asking…..
Why not? Taxpayers pay for the slaying of unborn, innocent babies by the millions! I have started praying for my enemies. At the top of my list are abortionists, followed by muslims and Obama. Abortionist have killed 60 or 70 million unborns in the US alone while the muslims have killed a few thousand here but want to annihilate America. I consider O to be more of a threat to me and my family then I am to him because it appears he too want’s to annihilate what America stands for by using govt powers to do so. As far as I know he personally has not killed anyone? I pray for them to change their ways and to be open for promptings of the Holy Spirit. This is my version of hope and change? There are a lot of other folks hanging out in DC that need to get with the program, Constitutional govt, not PC. In heaven there is no beer while in Washington, DC there is no emperor or ayatollah.
Amen!
Different states have different policies concerning benefits for illegals. Some states issue licenses.
Some give preferential housing. Some EBT cards. The states that give the most benies get the most illegals.
That’s total incompetence on the part of the social security administration and VA. A little search goes a long way.
What’s this illegal immigrant crap???
They are illegal aliens. Call it what it is and stop this PC nonsense. Go town by town, street by street and round up everyone of them and dump them in Mexico.
Dump them in Mexico? do you really believe all the illegals come from Mexico? They come from every country in the world. Sad, but true.
Undocumented ?? How about foreign national invaders?
Wonder what night he will have dinner with oblama at the white house to celebrate his screwing of Americans.
An illegal alien caught for stealing a dead veterans benefits that he didn’t earn, didn’t deserve, stealing 6 people’s
Identities. That is a professional criminal that needs the maximum prison sentence and be in prison with the damned
NO GOOD ROTTON Clinton’s, and all crooked, corrupt politicians that are owned lock, stock, block, barrel and them some
Where they all belong together. For those that want to cross the borders illegally, give them the following options, turn around
and go back where they came from, go through the process the right and legal way, inform U.S. Law enforcement about
the smugglers that left them and still return where they came from, but will be given some credit for turning in the names
of the smugglers or they can join the U.S.Army for a period of 6 years before they can apply for U.S.Citizenship, being in
the military is a much better choice and pays much better than taking someone else’s job-they would at least be contributing
to the country and rightfully earning benefits at the same time.
I’m sorry to disagree. Career criminals do NOT belong in prison. They to be executed immediately. You politically correct people need to understand, we are at war with crime. Anyone violating someones personal rights looses their rights except for their right to a speedy trial.
Amen!!!! Let’s go for it.
This is typical illegal alien behavior and is encouraged by this “administration” as they willfully ignore the Federal immigration laws they took an oath to uphold. If the fraud and corruption could be exposed and removed from all of our benefit programs which were created for American citizens only, it would go a long way toward preserving these benefits.
How in the HELL can this ILLEGAL ALIEN get all of these ID cards listed in the article?? It seems to me that those in charge were not doing their job. How about comparing the deceased Veteran’s fingerprints with that of this LOWLIFE ILLEGAL. That should be a clue. Extradite him back to his country of birth and let his government pick up the tab.
Joanne:
May I remind of “…is not what you know, but who you know?” I am with you as well puzzled that, furthermore, it makes me think of a “fix” someone is using in this web. However, I have nothing against this webpage which practices freedom of speech. I had to bring my US PASSPORT, AND DD-214 forms twice and was twice told “This is not you”, when applying for food stamps sometime ago. When challenged about my military service, the interviewer could not halfway understand my military educated terms. So I had to set that person straight after that second time (via appointment) while my family was waiting.
Only in America could this happen. Obombie they are not undocumented they are illegal, they are in this country ILLEGALLY, what the fuck don’t you understand about that.
THE HELL WITH THEM AND ALL WHO ASSIST THEM=====HEY I DON”T NEED THEM IN OUR MILITARY======SHOOT THEM AT THE BORDER SEND THE BODY ( OVER THE BIGGG BIGGG WALL) AND ALL WHO AIDE AND ASSIST THEM=====I AM TIRED OF SEEING THESE FREELOADERS OVER HERE LET THEM SEND THE SYMPATHISERS WITH THEM WITH THE PRESNT ADMINISTRATION =======END OF MY VENT AND RAGE
I feel the same way!
Illegals could be returned to Mexico’s southern border.
A friend of our was murdered last year by Illegal left behind 5 sons hard worker wife has to work two jobs to support her family she will not take welfare Oh she’s white, so glad Trump is going to build the Wall we’re over run by Illegals here in AZ.
We can cry for our country, but we have passed the point of no return! The communist democrats have been indoctrinating our citizens for a hundred years and the sleepy people did nothing. Now we are facing the horror! They will rule our country! ”
Read history and you will learn what happened to country’s that do not protect it’s borders. Even better visit country’s that have failed to do so. Eventually they vanish , and the citizens have to live under their rule. Sometimes it will take a few generations but eventually they will win without an army or fire a gun. How smart those uneducated 3rd world country’s are, outsmarting the most powerful country in the world!
Build a “Wall” how stupid, they do not just walk over the Southern border but they overstay their visas,they drive in ,fly in,by boat or any other means family ” unification ” ??? The ONLY way to change is to deport any ” ILLEGAL ALIEN” on the spot ,without a slew of corrupt Lawyers that fight for them for years at the citizens expenses. Anyone that attempts to come over the border illegally will think twice. ILLEGAL ALIENS come here by the millions, they multiply like rabbits and we reward the new little arrivals with the “AMERICAN ” crown jewel ” CITIZENSSHIP”. How insane is that? Canada has stopped Citizenship by birth birth since early 80s and I know of no other country that has such an insane law.
Between dead people and pets it’s scum like this that keep Dems in office. Nothing will happen to people like this. With states like Cal. who hide them so the can’t be deported they just go into hiding. When them come out the chose a different name and start all over again. Now NY will allow them to teach in the schools. Illegals need to be sent home and the trip should be payed for buy the country they come from and not us the taxpayer. If an american did this in a foreign land there would be hell to pay. Even here we get a parking ticket and don’t pay it’s jail time. These people just don’t bother or the ticket is never given because of all the PC crap the cop will get for doing his job. Trump will stop this crap and bring pride put the taxpayers first. In NJ the police are searching the dumps looking for a new born that 2 unmarried illegals threw into the garbage. And of course we the people are footing the bill for this.
I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST ANYONE, I AM NOT A RACIST, I LOVE EVERYONE, BUT IF I HAVE TO OBEY THE LAWS OF AMERICA , SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE…….. HE SHOULD BE HELD HERE UNTIL HE CAN PAY BACK WHAT HE STOLE, THEN DEPORT HIM………. ALL AMERICANS WANT IS THE SAME RESPECT WE GIVE, I WORK HARD FOR WHAT I HAVE AND I AM NOT ABOUT TO LET ANY ILLEGAL, OR REFUGEE CLAIM BENEFITS WHILE ME AS A TAXPAYER IS SUPPORTING THEM, AND MY CHILDREN ARE GROWN. COME IN THE LEGAL WAY OR PAY …..SIMPLE
And all of you who moan about it keep reelecting the National Socialists Democrats who are responsible for allowing this to happen. Come November are you going to do the right thing and vote for Trump who will stop all of this, and vote to remove the useless politicians from the Congress and Senate and House? We need a clean sweep, just like “The New Deal” . Unless you are willing to do something about it, STOP ALL YOUR COMPLAINING, because YOU put the people in power that did all this. REMOVE THEM FROM POWER, and you had best get involved, or there will be nothing left for YOUR children, after it has been STOLEN by illegals.
Very well said!
For this thief let us bring back the Military Firing Squad and let him pay for stealing an American Service Man’s identy!
To all of you out there THIS NEVER should have happened. When this DIRT BAG Illegal Alien first applied for Veteran benefits WHY didn’t the VA compare his fingerprints to that of the deceased? They all have computers and an entire Veteran data base. I’m certain that someone who was doing their job would have discovered that the photo of the true Vet. looked nothing like the Illegal. There are many to blame in this MESS.
i am a Vietnam vet and a few years ago when i was having trouble paying for oil i applied for heating assistance was told i qualified and would be receiving help but by the time i got home i received a phone call saying i did not qualify for my income was 50 dollars a week over the limit for a family of four and tyhis piece of shit steals a vets id and receives over 30,000 in assistance and i could not get any help shows me that an illegal comes before a vet in totdays society this is a disgrace and we must change our laws and protect our borders from all these illeghals coming to my country and receive so many benefits while real Americans can not get any letys tyaske our country back and trow out all these illegalsand send them back to the country they came from i am not a bleeding heart liberal i am an AMERICAN.
Hey John, way to go into the right change. We, the AMERICAN people will vote and restore America. More Veterans like you are in demand to exercise our true value and moral duty. Carry on fellow and lead again!
Wow looks like on one page we rounded up all the racist people in America, for years white, black, latino every race has done the same thing. All Races have stole other people’s identity and does all this other stuff so get a life people, and I’m not sticking up for Latinos or anybody I’m just trying to say the facts. And just for you people who do not know all of the Mexicans who pay taxes have to pay Medicaid and Social Security even though they were using fake numbers now think about this all these years if they’re paying for Social Security and Medicaid they will never see one dime of it what’s the government doing with that, and for the lady that said that they have to cloth and get phones and get everything for the Mexicans every race including whites and blacks are on welfare and yet they go to the welfare place driving Mercedes Benz and BMW’s and have $900 phones, and getting food stamps. So every single one of us who actually does the right thing and go to work everyday have to pay for all these other people not just the Mexican the White and The Blacks. So for whatever race you are, hate on your own people your white hate on the whites, if you’re black hate on the blacks, if your Mexican hate on the Mexicans every race does it.
A little-known fact: the US now has the *third largest population in the world*. China is first, with 1.5 billion, India is second, with 1.3 billion, and the US is third with “only” 317 million. Still, our resources — natural, social, political and economic — are straining at the seams. We *can’t* take in all the poor people in the world who want to come here; we just can’t do it. We have to stop *all* immigration, round up every last one of the illegals, and ship them off to whatever country will take them.
Yes, by all means, let them take with them whatever goodies they got and whatever money they made here in goody-land; they’ll need a grubstake when they get to wherever they’re going. Let’s also give each of them a parting gift: a sturdy .38 revolver, ten boxes of fitting ammo, a cleaning kit and an instruction book — profusely illustrated — in the departees’ language, so they can protect their grubstake. Send all the Spanish-speakers to Mexico, send all the Black Africans to Haiti, all the Chinese illegals to the Phillippines, and all the Arabs to Mecca — and don’t let them come back. With their American-made money, they should do pretty well for themselves. But patrol the border with men, dogs and drones, and *don’t let the illegals come back*.
Europe should have the sense to follow our example.
He not only stole the $29k+ but now we have to pay to incarcerate him and the cost of putting him through the legal system. It would be much cheaper to spend some money to keep these guys out in the first place. Did you see where homeland released 86,000 of these criminals back into society? Including murderers! It’s true – search it.
A Revolution Would Play Into Obamas` hands. He does NOT Give one Whit What happens to the People Of this Country. TO Know It was HIS Actions That Brought About All this Angst and Fighting that is Going on Here..Pleases HIM. He Knows he will Soon BE “Outta here” And Unless The “” Legal System gets Busy Very Soon now, HE is Going to Get away..Home Free..In spite of All The Problems HE Has Created. But..People.. Forget about Revolution. For When HE IS OUT.. Our President Is Going to BE So busy Dealing With Cleaning House That No one Will be Able TO Breath from All the Dust That he is Going to be Stirring UP. SO Rest assured.. This Was Once upon a Time..A Nation That Lived BY the Rules And was governed by the Laws of Our Constitution…And Will Again. Our Country IS going to Rise above All The Rules Obama Has Broken..And Trump will make our Nation Great AGAIN. SO..Keep the Faith. .And Your Patience A Little While Longer. The Rats will Scurry.
CONFOUNDMEONCE:
There is no doubt about the ignoring point you relate. But, it is even worse to understand why hasn’t anyone required to look into these facts, responded with due justice. What are they waiting for? Prime example of what is needed just took place in Brazil though…. I still believe in the founded human’s right desire this country was built upon. We just have to find him/her and put that person; a right human, in the lead.
there actually called cockroaches.
Ever wonder what mexico does with
Illegals. They deport them immediately.
It’s amazing to me that we don’t do the
Same thing.
If the United States is going to continue going down this road of demise, then TEXAS needs to SECEDE. The U.S. federal government is corrupt as hell! It sure is not securing the 1,254 mile Texas border with Mexico. Visit: TEXASNATIONALIST.ORG REPUBLIC of TEXAS, because ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!
I wish I could get $30,000 a year to live on. If it were not for my son helping me ,there is no way I could live on what I get from widow benefits..
. I thank God every day for his help. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE SYSTEM HERE IN UNITED STATES.
I don’t know of any other country that is as loose with the tax payers money as the United States. Do you?
Shirley form Virginia
Step one:get rid of Oblowhole, step two put Killery behind bars, step three: clean out Washington! Put everyday people with commen sense in charge, and get OUR country back on the right track!
What Americans need to do is take over the border ourselves with our own weapons side by side.
Yvonne,
Many are wholeheartedly applauding you. How many more Yvonne’s idealistic approach to take the bull-by-the-horn would it be necessary… I wonder? I might be relocating to TX . Thank you for your post.
