Better than “miffed?” GOP Georgia Governor Nathan Deal has “reservations” on Emperor’s subversion of the constitution and amnesty

Gathering remarks from elected officials around the nation on Obama trashing the constitution with his illegal executive amnesty? Don’t overlook this one.

Below is a reaction/quote to the Atlanta Journal Constitution from Nathan Deal, the newly re-elected Republican governor of Georgia – where we have more illegal aliens than Arizona and where he says we spend more than $2.4 billion annually on the crime of illegal immigration.

“Anytime the legislative process is circumvented, we all should have concerns, and this is no exception. Based on the information being circulated in the news about the proposed order, I have reservations and further questions.”

— Gov. Nathan Deal

SB 6 in Georgia falsely depicted six hours after being introduced! Diana Davis at WSB TV: Completely fabricated “news” reporting on SB 6. We have asked for an on-air correction and do-over story that is accurate

Posted by D.A. King at 11:21 am - Email the author   Print This Post Print This Post  

ADDED 2:14 PM same day: It looks like WSB TV took the below news report video off of their site. And who could blame them?

ADDED: 3:00 PM – A welcomed call from a senior WSB editor tells us that WSB TV News will air a detailed correction on each broadcast time today in which the original report aired. No word on the future of Diana Davis…

ADDED 9:40 Wednesday AM, next day: : HERE http://www.wsbtv.com/news/news/local/state-senator-files-bill-prevent-illegal-immigrant/nh9k2/ is a link to the correction WSB TV News posted on Diana Davis’ false report.

Here is the video correction WSB TV News aired last night: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FTzC3rMVK4

Is Atlanta’s WSB TV News reporter Diana Davis an official anti-enforcement activist reporter?

You be the judge. Watch the short video.

1) Georgia state Senator’s SB 6 ( see outline HERE ) does not stop “non-citizens” from obtaining a Georgia drivers license. That is the entire false premise of Diana Davis’ agenda-driven report. The bill says illegal aliens who are beneficiaries of Obama’s deferred action on deportation will not be allowed to obtain or keep a Georgia drivers license. Not being an American citizen does NOT prohibit anyone from getting a Georgia drivers license!

2) Charles Kuck is an immigration lawyer. But he is also vice-Chair of the rapidly anti-enforcement, pro-amnesty, tribalist GALEO Corporation . The AJC and other news outlets in Georgia and now WSB TV News omit that important attribution. See HERE for Kuck’s position. NOTE: The AJC “justice”-trained immigration reporter did it again yesterday, after repeated promises over the years from senior editors that the biased practice would stop: “Charles Kuck, a local immigration attorney who teaches immigration law at Emory University…” HERE

3) It is impossible to see how anyone could invent a more biased, incomplete and more intentionally false report on this common sense, life-saving legislation in Georgia than what Davis has done.

* Assuming that WSB TV News does a correction AND a separate story that contains an accurate portrayal of the facts involving the pending legislation in the Georgia Capitol, we will be happy to post that information far and wide.

You can contact WSB TV News reporter Diana Davis and her producers HERE

This is not the first time Davis has done this. Several years ago, WSB TV News was kind enough to interrupt the 6:00 news to air a correction to another story she got 100% wrong after asking me a direct question and reversing my face-to-face response.

One word? PEEEEEUUUUU!

SILENCE IS CONSENT.

Attention Georgia state legislators, reporters and voters: Real facts related to the Georgia Road Safety and Drivers License Integrity Act pre-filed for the 2015 General Assembly session

Posted by D.A. King at 1:23 pm - Email the author   Print This Post Print This Post  

Pre-filed as SB 6
SINCE 2012, REPUBLICAN-CONTROLLED GEORGIA HAS BEEN REWARDING ABOUT 11,000 DEFERRED ACTION (DACA) ILLEGAL ALIENS WITH DRIVERS LICENSES – OBAMA TRYING TO MAKE THAT NUMBER SKYROCKET !

* According to DHS, Georgia contains more illegal aliens than Arizona.
• In 2011, Republican Governor Nathan Deal put the estimate of the cost of illegal immigration to Georgia taxpayers at $2.4 billion.
• Obama’s threatened executive deferred-action-on-deportation-amnesty would reward several hundred thousand illegal aliens in Georgia with a federal work permit and a Social Security Number, which under current law would make them eligible for a Georgia drivers license and other public benefits.
• The current unemployment rate in Georgia is 7.9%

Our opinion: BOLD ACTION NEEDED! DO NOT DEFER TO OBAMA’S PRESIDENTS JUDGEMENT ON ILLEGAL AMNESTY AND GEORGIA DRIVERS LICENSES!

Below, we list several facts that legislators, reporters and voters in Georgia will need for the 2015 legislative process on SB 6 , The Georgia Road safety and Drivers License Integrity Act. (pre-filed November 17, 2014. State Senator Josh McKoon, sponsor.

Deferred action illegal aliens are still illegal aliens and DO NOT have lawful status:

*What Is DACA ( from USCIS)

“On June 15, 2012, the Secretary of Homeland Security announced that certain people who came to the United States as children and meet several guidelines may request consideration of deferred action for a period of two years, subject to renewal. They are also eligible for work authorization. Deferred action is a use of prosecutorial discretion to defer removal action against an individual for a certain period of time. Deferred action does not provide lawful status. HERE

* Deferred action is NOT requirement for states to issue drivers licenses!

From illegal alien lobby law offices;

States Grant Licenses to DACA RecipientsBecause the rules governing eligibility for driver’s licenses vary by state, a grant of DACA does not provide access to a state driver’s license automatically. But otherwise-eligible DACA recipients who obtain an employment authorization document and a Social Security number have been able to obtain a license in almost every state.

The rules in most states either list deferred action specifically as meeting a lawful presence requirement or provide that an employment authorization document is acceptable to establish eligibility for a license. Like other driver’s license applicants, DACA recipients also must provide proof of identity and age, and also meet the state residence requirements, in order to obtain a license…” HERE

*Nebraska does not issue drivers licenses to DACA recipients.

Feb, 2014: “A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit challenging the state of Nebraska for denying driver’s licenses to Dreamers who have received temporary authorization to stay and work in the United States. Smith Camp wrote in her ruling that there was “uncontroverted evidence” that the Nebraska DMV was following the state’s statute and issuing driver’s licenses and state identification cards only to people with a lawful status, as determined by the federal government and verified through the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) program.” HERE

* Headline: Mass. Governor-Elect Kills Deval Patrick’s Plan to Issue Drivers Licenses to Illegal Aliens HERE

* Headline: PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN 6 and AP) –

Residents living in Oregon illegally will not be eligible for drivers’ cards.“It is the first time that voters in any state weighed in on the driver’s license issue.
The law would have allowed immigrants and others to apply for drivers’ cards that could not have been used to vote, board a plane, get benefits or buy firearms.

KOIN 6 political analyst Jim Moore said the fate of Measure 88 represents a law, passed in the legislature, being killed by voters.

The measure was agreed upon by most politicians in the Legislature: Democrats and Republicans from rural-agricultural, suburban, and urban areas all supported it. But, even in heavily Democratic Multnomah County, it failed two-to-one…”
More than $600,000 was invested in the “yes” side, while under $100,000 was invested in the “no” side…” HERE

* OREGON – A Blue state, More ppl voted AGAINST drivers licenses for illegals than voted for winning Dem gov or senator in Oregon. HERE

*California has had a vehicle impound law for unlicensed drivers since 1995

California Vehicle Code Section 14602.6 – Vehicle Impoundment: Suspended, Revoked, or Unlicensed Driver: Hearing

“14602.6. (a) (1) Whenever a peace officer determines that a person was driving a vehicle while his or her driving privilege was suspended or revoked, driving a vehicle while his or her driving privilege is restricted pursuant to Section 13352 or 23575 and the vehicle is not equipped with a functioning, certified interlock device, or driving a vehicle without ever having been issued a driver’s license, the peace officer may either immediately arrest that person and cause the removal and seizure of that vehicle or, if the vehicle is involved in a traffic collision, cause the removal and seizure of the vehicle without the necessity of arresting the person in accordance with Chapter 10 (commencing with Section 22650) of Division 11. A vehicle so impounded shall be impounded for 30 days.
(2) The impounding agency, within two working days of impoundment, shall send a notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the legal owner of the vehicle, at the address obtained from the department, informing the owner that the vehicle as been impounded. Failure to notify the legal owner within two working days shall prohibit the impounding agency from charging for more than 15 days’ impoundment when the legal owner redeems the impounded vehicle. The impounding agency shall maintain a published telephone number that provides information 24 hours a day regarding the impoundment of vehicles and the rights of a registered owner to request a hearing…” HERE

UNFUNDED MANDATE: Obama’s “OK, I really am a dictator” illegal executive amnesty creates a financial burden for states as undocumented residents come out of the shadows and become eligible for public benefits. HERE

FAMILY SEPARATION? While we are only middle-class Americans seeking justice in our own country…Dustin Inman’s parents in a letter to the editor at the AJC in response to the anti-borders coalition

Posted by D.A. King at 12:09 pm - Email the author   Print This Post Print This Post  

The below letter was published in the Atlanta Journal Constitution today in response to a “Atlanta Forward” guest column of about 600 words from the ACLU and Co.http://panafricannews.blogspot.com/2011/07/thousands-rally-in-atlanta-against.html Link to that column HERE. http://atlantaforward.blog.ajc.com/2014/11/06/should-police-detain-immigrants/

Immigration laws protect law-abiding

While we are only middle-class Americans seeking justice in our own country, we hope to add our voice in opposition to the well-funded illegal alien lobby’s war on immigration enforcement. In their column “Detention requests warrantless” (Atlanta Forward, Nov. 6), Azadeh Shahshahani and Adelina Nicholls describe implementation of the federal Secure Communities program as having “troubling patterns … that involved racial discrimination, and indiscriminate targeting of immigrants.”

While not as strict as immigration enforcement in Mexico, the Secure Communities program works toward locating illegal aliens who have landed in the nation’s jails because of arrests for additional crimes. All foreign inmates’ fingerprints are shared with DHS. The perpetual race-baiting from the anti-enforcement left is not fooling anyone. Identifying illegals because of their local arrests is designed to have them deported before they commit even more crimes, like murder or rape.

Killed by an illegal alien in 2000, our only child, Dustin Inman, is forever 16 because his killer was released after previous contact with local law enforcement. We fully understand the concept of “family separation.” Shahshahani’s and Nichols’ shameless mission to end common-sense enforcement is spitting on the grave of our beloved son Dustin and in the faces of the hundreds of thousands of American families who have lost loved ones to illegal immigration.

URGENT QUESTIONS FOR REPUBLICANS

When it comes to immigration policy, why does GOP leadership appear determined to validate the old adage that the “the Republican Party is the stupid Party?”

The GOP House leadership’s deliberately equivocal “Standards for Immigration Reform” advocates amnesty for 11 million illegal aliens, and supports a massive increase in low-skill immigration. The “Standards” risk civil war within the GOP which could snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in the 2014 elections. What’s going on?

The “Standards” opens with a tired cliché: “Our nation’s immigration system is broken.” Is the real problem our “broken immigration system” or the refusal to enforce immigration law because of partisan politics and corporate greed?

Relative to immigration legislation is there any real difference between the goals of the House leadership and the Senate “Gang of Eight?

Solid data from the Census Bureau, the Pew Hispanic Center and political scientists tell us the GOP will never win the Hispanic vote. Why won’t GOP leadership face facts?

If amnesty passes along with a huge increase in legal immigration by low-skill workers with lop-sided ideological sympathy for the Democratic Party, America will become a One-Party State. We’ll lose our political liberty and the nations’ politics will lurch far to the left. Is GOP leadership deaf to the approaching thunder?

GOP leadership wants an amnesty and a massive increase in immigration by low-skill labor when 20 million Americans cannot find full-time work. The “Standards” speaks eloquently about the “needs of employers” but is silent about those of ordinary Americans. Don’t Republicans have a message for working Americans?

Romney didn’t lose because of the Hispanic vote. He lost because six million White American Christians, natural GOP voters, stayed home. Should Republicans continue to alienate White working-class Americans?

Republicans pride themselves on being the Party of fiscal responsibility. But amnesty and increased low-skill immigration means the massive importation of poverty and the corresponding growth of the welfare state will cost trillions. Why the inconsistency? Why doesn’t GOP leadership foreground the powerful nexus between immigration and economic policy and employment?

GOP Congressional leaders advocate an unrealistic compromise: granting legal status but not citizenship to illegal aliens. This would create a vast under-class of wage slaves without political rights. This is un-American and within a few years a movement to grant citizenship, driven by the Democrats, would triumph. Is this a devious amnesty scheme or are GOP leaders incapable of recognizing how unethical and impractical it is?

The “Standards” calls on the government to create a “workable electronic employment verification system” to end workplace fraud, yet an excellent one already exists: E-Verify. Why doesn’t the “Standards” mandate its immediate adoption?

If an amnesty/legalization for illegal aliens is passed along with a massive increase in legal low-skill immigration, how will that affect President Obama’s legacy and what impact will it have on the 2016 Presidential election?

How could a Republican call for lower levels of immigration become part of a new populist GOP conservative message that could win not only Congress but also the White House?

Finally, what would a sound and smart immigration policy look like?

WHY ALL AMERICANS SHOULD BE CONCERNED

Why mass immigration by low-skill, poorly-educated workers – legal or illegal – is fundamentally incompatible with the needs of a post-industrial knowledge-based society with a huge welfare system

The connection between high U.S. unemployment and mass immigration

How mass immigration and the cheap labor threatens the wages, working conditions and benefits for all American workers

The brutal consequences of mass low-skill immigration on the unemployed, the working poor, young college graduates and American workers with only a high school education

How the presence of a huge transnational population of impoverished low-skill immigrants threatens to form a permanent underclass

Why contemporary mass low-skill immigration will destroy America’

MURDER IN AMERICA – Lax Immigration Policies May Have Shielded Killer of California Deputies

Posted by D.A. King at 4:32 pm - Email the author   Print This Post Print This Post  

Lax Immigration Policies May Have Shielded Killer of California Deputies

The man accused in Friday’s horrific killing and carjacking spree near Sacramento, Calif., which resulted in the deaths of two sheriff’s deputies and the wounding of two others, is a citizen of Mexico who was deported twice previously, but who apparently has been living in the United States for more than a decade.

Thanks to fingerprint sharing made possible by ICE’s Secure Communities program (which DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson has indicated he wants to scale back), authorities were able to quickly determine that the man arrested had given them an alias. ICE has issued a statement saying that the accused is Luis Enrique Monroy-Bracamonte, and that he was deported in 1997 after a conviction in Arizona for possession of narcotics for sale, and again in 2001.

Unfortunately, the Secure Communities identification system seems to be the only part of our immigration system that has worked properly against this violent criminal… Read the rest HERE http://cis.org/vaughan/lax-immigration-policies-may-have-shielded-killer-california-deputies

Luis Enrique Monroy-Bracamonte
According to news accounts, after he illegally re-entered the country after deportation, Monroy-Bracamonte lived and worked for years in Arizona, where he married Janelle Marquez Monroy-Bracamonte, reported to be a U.S. citizen. At some point they moved to the Salt Lake City, Utah, area, which is notably more hospitable to illegal residents. While working as a house painter and lawn mower there, Monroy-Bracamonte apparently racked up more than 10 misdemeanor traffic offenses and citations between 2003 and 2009 under an alias. In addition, he reportedly had a record of one traffic ticket and three small claims court filings for debt in his real name, also in Utah.

Had these offenses occurred in Arizona or other places where local law enforcement agencies are encouraged (and required in Arizona since 2012) to look into the identity and immigration status of lawbreakers, Monroy-Bracamonte might have come to the attention of local police and ICE a long time ago. But Salt Lake City Police Chief Chris Burbank has said such policies are “ridiculous” and “you actually increase crime when you enforce these kinds of laws.” Who looks ridiculous now? Chief Burbank also has been active with a (very small) group of police chiefs lobbying against immigration enforcement and for amnesty.

Monroy-Bracamonte appears not to be your average illegal worker off on a weekend road trip with his wife. They were quite well armed for their trip to Sacramento, packing an AR-15 assault rifle and at least two pistols. Monroy-Bracamonte killed Sacramento County deputy Danny Oliver by shooting him in the forehead as he approached their car, which was parked in the lot of a Motel 6 that is notorious for criminal activity, and where they were registered as guests. They led officers on a six-hour chase, during which Monroy-Bracamonte killed detective Michael David Davis, Jr., and wounded two others before officers used tear gas to smoke him out of hiding in a house in Auburn, Calif.

Photographs reported to be of Monroy-Bracamonte suggest that he is a member of the criminal gang known as Mexican Pride and associated with the Sinaloa drug cartel.

List of 134 Cities Where Violent, Criminal Illegal Aliens Were Sent After Release by Obama DHS – LET’S GIVE THEM A GEORGIA DRIVERS LICENSES!

List of 134 Cities Where Violent, Criminal Illegal Aliens Were Sent After Release by Obama DHS

According to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement arm of DHS, 36,007 criminal illegal aliens were released into the United States in 2013. Responding to a request by Sen. Chuck Grassley, ICE recently provided a list of raw ZIP codes — not cities and states — where criminal illegals, many convicted of violent offenses including murder, rape and kidnapping, have been dumped by the administration.

I wrote a small script to convert the ZIPs into cities and states, the results of which are below. Please make sure that your families, friends, colleagues and other acquaintances are aware of these locations. Better safe than sorry.
