President Barack Obama’s administration reworked U.S. border patrol policy in 2014, ordering agents to prioritize new illegal immigrants over those that have been here for years.
And that’s a big problem, border agents say. Because illegal immigrants, even those caught in the act of crossing the border, just have to claim they’ve been in America for years. And then agents, under Obama’s order, have to let them go.
The president’s policy has created “an open border with Mexico,” according to a statement by the president of the National Border Patrol Council, Brandon Judd.
Obama’s orders have created a legal loophole that are allowing illegal immigrants — still “dripping-wet… at the Rio Grande” — to escape deportation, according to The Washington Times.
Judd recently told the House Judiciary Committee that his agents were given verbal orders, passed down from the Obama administration, that anyone claiming to have been here since before Jan. 1st, 2014 is to be released.
“We have apprehended illegal aliens just north of the border who are still soaking wet from crossing the river. If they claim, as increasingly they are doing, that they have been here since January 1, 2014, we will process and then release them,” Judd said in written testimony to the committee.
“They are still wet from the river and miles from any civilization and on their word alone we release them unless we physically saw them cross the river,” Judd said in his statement. “This policy de facto creates an open border with Mexico for any illegal alien who wants to claim that they were here before 2014.”
According to The Washington Times, “Both interior and border agents report that illegal immigrants, coached by smugglers, have quickly learned the new priorities and know the right words to use to avoid stricter scrutiny.”
The Boston Globe yesterday had a special edition of what it thinks April 2017 will be like if Trump wins. It’s headline said, “Mass Deportations Begin”. It went on to describe an America in chaos. No mention of the chaos of today with the middle east in a barbaric state, open borders resulting in higher crime or a nation where low paying non- benefit jobs are the norm. The Globe is owned by Red Sox owner John Henry. Henry made his fortune on soy beans. His treatment of small farmers has been controversial. Each year he raises ticket and concession prices at Fenway Park. 104 year old Fenway Park is now the most expensive venue in professional sports. Then his paper criticizes Trump for daring to stop America’s decline.
The Globe is owned by a GMO crop investor? That figures!!f There is so much chaos and out of control situations now and Obama is letting it happen. So its going to be worse with Trump??? Give me a break!!
Trump will send them back where they belong. The only TRUE Americans are Native American Indians, then again, what if they chased our forefathers back to where we came from ?
Then you wouldn’t be here to write the question.
Did these people fight to create this country? Did they learn English? Did they donate to our taxes? No to all of those questions because they are COMING over the border however they are not the ONLY ones coming over the border…Who else do you know who would want to get over our border????
Has it ever occurred to you all that Mexico wants them over here for this income they send back is the fourth largest cash stream their have and this money can help the Mexican Government so “send them over” the Mexican government says. This is now a plot from the Government of Mexico!
This magazine and others like it are a bunch of crap and lies and read by people who have no life and need to get one.
So I guess you have no license you’re reading it LOL
Fenway Park has the highest Beer prices of any Major League Park.
They slap some paint on the 104 year old dump every year and go up on average 15% on ticket and concession prices yearly since John Henry bought the team. Then he has the nerve to label Trump.
What else do you expect to hear from an “On the take gov. farm subsidy New England liberal”??
@ Jack: John Henry is originally from southern Illinois. He came here about 16 years ago to buy the Red Sox. He bought the Boston Globe 3 years ago.
Of course, these are the left wing mainstream media, they’ve Always turned a blind eye. I’m looking 4ward to the day, yes, it’s mean spirited, when they realize they’ve been left to their own devices in fending off the “New Citizens” from Their front door! They’re just as stupid as the rest in thinking they’ll be exempt!
To tell the truth, there are American citizens taking up arms and patrolling the borders. More every day. People are sick and tired of the blatant Plan to exterminate us!! Many, many ways to do our part…
the laws for deportation have been in place for how many years??????? Now we have not only mexicans looking for a better life but mostly visous latina gang members coming in . oh not to mention syrian Terroists crossing from mexico.so all you care about a stupid baseball park . Horses asses the media is as corrupt as the thieving GOP . Say what you want Trump has shown time and time again He has the countries best intereists at heart and That he is in tune with world events . He may not say what every one wants to hear but that one of the facts I like him , hes honest . and thats why you dont like him , You cant by bully him or control him . MY book he is the only one that has a chance to clean up washington and get our country back on track
Get rid of all the illegals? Oh, Hell YES! Especially if that includes the biggest illegal of all Barack H. Obama.
On second thought, don’t deport the jerk, HANG the no-good foolish idiot from a tree on the White House lawn. Sell popcorn, ice cream and sodas, really make a ‘killing’!
theres always someone who has benefited from the corruption of our Govt. but since Obama has become the queen bee , they don’t want a non political to become president. Obama has already drug us thru the sludge long enough and we do not need another obamanite to rise to power. Trump is a player and he plays to win. and that’s what America needs right now. someone who can not be bought. that’s the fears of the (gop)
This news is as they say in Texas, “pure horse shit”.
How about the illegal P.O.S. posing as a president of the USA.
Alright, thanks for the honesty that every single person choices to ignore. Wake up America
Everyone needs to be able to protect themselves and their family and should purchase as many guns and as much ammo as possible. We are being set up for internal wars between illegals, the races, a jihad and criminals who have been released from jails. We must be able to defend ourselves from that which is inevitably coming upon our nation.
Vote for Trump! That is how you stop our corrupt government of the present! Obama is an idiot, corrupt muslum, bu the does not have the guts to admit this to the american people!
I did not vote for him, but I am paying the price for each dumb person who did!
Can’t wait for him to be out of office.
Hope Clinton or any of the other clowns don’t get it. Our taxes will be raised to pay for all of the illegals who will be going to college…..and their kids going to Kindergarten! What a cesspool .we live in!
Before November the Obum will sigh an executive order stating that all illegals can vote because they are currently here. No need to be an American, you are here, you can vote. Who do you think they will vote for?
I’ve been going to Aruba for years which is a small island and these people have to learn English in school and they speak better English than alot of people in this Country. Its becoming more Americanized than we are! They even have better water than us being the number one distilling plant in the world. These people live a simple life, work hard,have pride and are happy. We could learn alot from them but money,power.control and disrespect is more important than American’s lives and freedom choices.
True and I’m ready to defend this country again USMC RET
Why doesn’t the low life weasels in congress do some thing about this? We the voters need to vote everyone new to congress next November. WE need a change of guard and by all means do not vote democrat.
We have a Republican controlled house and Senate and they are the ones who are absent.These same do nothing Republicans will be seeking reelection,they will be the same people who are not forcing Obama’s hand.The only way to vote is whoever is strong on the borders Democrats also.There are still Democrats who are not progressive and there is a big difference,so if a Democrat who has a record of not being afraid to buck the rest then that is the one to vote for.
A democrat will raise our taxes to pay for all of the freebies they give away!
Just remember folks, if they give you something, the rest of us are paying for it, and we are sick of that system!
Agree! Anyone in office now needs to be voted out in November as they have done nothing to protect “We the People!”
TO DATE, AMERICA FAILED! AND, PUT A “JERK” IN THE WHITEHOUSE! AND LEFT NO MEANS FOR REMOVING HIM FROM OFFICE. AND, THE ASS-KISSING CRONIES RIDING ON HIS SHIRTTAILS FOR PERSONAL GAIN! DEMOCRAPS & REPUBLICREEPS, ARE BOTH CORRUPT………WE NEED A NON-POLITICIAN, BUSINESS GENIUS TO WHIP AMERICAN BACK INTO FINANCIAL SHAPE!!!!!! TRUMP!
I believe the fix was in, in 2008 because it appeared a lock on Hillary getting the nomination.Something isn’t right because Obama came from a family with Marxist leanings,both his mother and grandparents so why didn’t anyone know that? Obama’s ideology is unlike any president we have ever had and his agenda was to change the face of America in the name of bringing everyone together,sounds socialist to me.And when he was running and was questioned by the plumber Joe,Obama talked about redistribution of wealth and that is before he won the election.People didn’t pay attention and the liberal whites wanted to be among those that voted for the first black president,issues be damned and those same people did it again,and again issues be damned.If the Progressives win the election America will cease to exist as it was known and she will continue her decline.This is the most pivitol election since the war against Britain,don’t laugh because it’s that serious.
Yes I agree, Trump is the guy who will clean up this mess!
If I were a border guard I would dismiss whatever comes out of Washington and use my own good sense and say as the Mexicans say I speak no English and don’t know what you are saying.
That’s because Obama hates America
What is our soverign nation of so called laws coming to and why is Congress allowing all this corruption to go on? Seems like a conspiracy within all our government. What the hell is going on?
All true patriotic Americans should protest, e-mail, call WashingtonD.C.and demand answeres!
It appears that my comment has been censored because of the seriousness of my comment,there was no vulgar language she facts about America’s place in the world,and the censorship proves my point.
There is a limit on free speech on this site folks,i have been censored twice,lets see if this gets posted.
Forget my comment on being censored because it was finally posted.
Secure ou borders! Arrest illegal immigrants, Build the Wall!
I agree! YOU KNOW WHAT THE SAYING IS> IN HONOR OF OBAMA AND HIS ADMINISTRATION WE SHOULD RENEW THE OLD – METHOD INVOLVING A HORSE… A TREE… AND A ROPE.
President Obama has consistently created policies designed to destroy America. This hare-brained policy easily fits into that category.
HILLARY BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT RIGHT WING CONSPIRACY SINCE THEY CAUGHT BILL FOOLING AROUND IN THE W.H.
TRUMP 2016!!! NO MORE illegals!!!!!!
TRUMP need to build the wall, and he needs to clean house!!!!
