“It seems Kemp has more in common with Joe Biden than pro-enforcement Georgia voters on the scourge of illegal immigration and the needless crime it generates.”Â
Retired immigration agent.
More needs to be done on illegal immigration
January 29, 2021 Brunswick News
On their way to a 2000 Fatherâs Day weekend outing camping in the North Georgia mountains, the Inman family of Woodstock was separated forever when an illegal alien crashed his speeding car into theirs, stopped at red light. Forever 16, Dustin Inman was killed instantly. His mom, Kathy, has been in a wheelchair since the crash due to brain injuries resulting from the crash.

Aurelio Mayo Perez, an illegal alien, was booked into Mariettaâs Cobb County jail for no driverâs license but released due to an edict from then-President Barack Obama to cut enforcement. Two years later, Mayo Perez was convicted of aggravated child molestation and rape. There are literally tens of thousands of these stories of fully preventable misery inflicted on Americans in their own country.
With the election of President Biden, we see another president severely reduce immigration enforcement. At least he is talking about illegal immigration.
I am a retired senior special agent, and was the assistant director, enforcement training, U.S. Immigration Service, at FLETC, and I am proud of my professional lifetime dedicated to immigration enforcement. I am outraged that here in Georgia, despite his detailed campaign promises on addressing sanctuary cities and to create a registry of criminal aliens, Gov. Brian Kemp has not so much as mentioned the topic since the 2018 election. It seems Kemp has more in common with Joe Biden than pro-enforcement Georgia voters on the scourge of illegal immigration and the needless crime it generates. We wonât be fooled again.

OPINION: Remembering Brian Kemp âBig Truckâ Campaign Ads: Broken Promises on Illegal Aliens
Remember the primary election campaign ad in which Gov. Brian Kemp told us â and the world â âI got a big truck, just in case I need to round up criminal illegals and take âem home myself?â We do. Heard anything on illegal immigration from him since 2018? We havenât.
Even though states cannot deport illegal aliens (only the feds can do that), in 2018 Kemp promised to create a âTrack and Deport Plan.â And he promised to create a criminal alien database. None of this has happened and he is defiant in his silence because he thinks you will also be silent.
During the 2018 primary election, Kemp presented himself as a determined pro-enforcement advocate on criminal aliens and made a host of promises on illegal immigration, including very detailed proposals on legislation he would send to the state legislature. Kempâs campaign pledges on illegal immigration are a large part of the how he won the endorsement from President Trump, which is a major reason he won the primary and the governorship. Since then, itâs crickets from Kemp on illegal immigration and the associated crime and job theft.
He must answer for this betrayal. At least Joe Biden admits which side he is on.
D.A. King at the Dustin Inman Society has compiled an extensive Brian Kemp file over the years that is a âmust readâ for conservatives who are taking a second look at Kemp.
âItâs not only the fact that Gov. Kemp showed us who he really is when he pulled his âBig Truck Trickâ on trusting conservatives. Georgians are being displaced from badly needed jobs by black market labor and criminal aliens are being released from county jails to go on and commit more criminal actsâ, D.A. told me. âHe has turned his back on Georgians who depend on leadership on the issue while DHS tells us we have more illegal aliens here than Arizona.â
Foreign language videos to help non-English speakers vote in Georgia
D.A.âs file reminded us that when he was Secretary of State, Kemp spent tax dollars to create foreign language videos to help non-English speakers register and vote in Georgia. Yep, he did that.
âKempâs State of the State silence on voter security should not be ignored, considering Georgia issues foreign nationals temporary drivers licenses and ID that are nearly identical to the ones eligible American voters get.â Most people are going to be stunned on this one. D.A. King explained to me that there is no law to prohibit these non-citizen drivers licenses from being considered âproper IDâ for voting. You need to read about that from D.A. too.
We hope you will take a long look at the âBrian Kempâ file at the Dustin Society website. You can see some of the now forgotten Brian Kemp campaign ads there.

Letters to the editor
One of the reasons Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp edged out former Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle during the Republican primary runoff election in 2018 was because of his strong stance in enforcing immigration laws, which resulted in President Trumpâs endorsement.
Gov. Kemp has done a fine job providing strong leadership in passing the âheartbeatâ bill last year and fulfilling his promise to teachers. However, he has neglected one of his key campaign promises so far – strengthening and enforcement of laws in dealing with criminal illegal aliens in the state.
Excellent legislative bills were introduced last year and this year, but they are not getting any support from Gov. Kemp or our leadership in the General Assembly.
I canât help but notice that too many of our elected representatives ignore their constituents and seem beholden to lobbying efforts of the Georgia Chamber of Commerce and large corporations that demand cheap labor, or other groups that advocate for amnesty for illegals aliens ito appease a corrupt Democratic Party that exploits illegals to create a permanent underclass voting base. All of this puts law-abiding Americansâ safety and lives at risk.
Most people feel that we do not have a voice in the political process – that we canât compete with huge campaign donations from corporations, unions and political action committees. We do and we can. We have the ultimate power with our individual votes.
Please contact the governorâs office and your state representatives and ask them to support the House Bill 915 – the Georgia Anti-Sanctuary Act.
 *UPDATE â 8:50 PM. I  was informed about 5:30 this evening that although it wasnât on the Rules calendar, while I was writing the below column, House leadership put the HB444 bill on members desks and held a surprise vote today. This was done because we were shining way to much light on the DE program and the bill. Too many House Reps were starting to ask questions. They voted about 12:30-ish I am told. The bill passed (they agreed to senate version).
Never let it be said that Gov Kemp and Speaker Ralston wonât work together.
âThey shoved it down our throats. If I had known all this, I never would have voted to agreeâ one GOP Rep told me this evening.Â

Spoiler alert to this post: While it is billed as a way to produce a more educated workforce, the Georgia dual enrollment program allows high school students to attend public universities at zero tuition cost. It has no verification system to keep illegal aliens out of the taxpayer-funded system. And, unless they have the Obama DACA amnesty, which provides a work permit, illegal aliens are not eligible to work anywhere in the United States. Read the story on ImmigrationPoliticsGA.com here
President Trump is (reportedly) sending special operations agents of the Border Patrol to assist Immigration Customs and Enforcement in sanctuary cities â including Atlanta. This move by Washington brilliantly illustrates a failure to launch by Gov. Brian Kemp.
Kemp, of the âbig truck in case I need it to round up criminal illegalsâ fame of the 2018 campaign also promised to end sanctuary cities, and to âtrack and deportâ with creation of a database of criminal aliens.
The Dustin Inman Society is offering a reward for information leading to the discovery of any quote, quip, remark, utterance, legislation or order from Kemp on illegal immigration since he won the election.
Trump is doing the job Kemp will not do in Georgia. His record shows Kemp is merely another business-first politician who has turned his back on pro-enforcement voters who trusted him on illegal immigration.
It was the âBig Truck Trick.â And it will be long remembered.
A recent MDJ story tells us that the Democrats have introduced a bill under the Gold Dome to allow illegal aliens with deferred action on deportation to access in-state tuition. Long a priority of liberals, this bill treats illegals as if they were somehow as deserving as legal immigrants â like my wife â or U.S. citizens when it comes to public benefits.
The story, produced by Capitol-Beat News Service, refers to the illegal aliens as âundocumented immigrants.â How does anyone verify anything about anybody if they have no documents? The description is nonsense. These illegal aliens with DACA have been granted work permits and Social Security numbers, which they have used to obtain driverâs licenses in Georgia. It is a scandalous and a needless security risk to know that driverâs license document is the exact same credential issued to legal immigrants.
The sad fact is that the Democrat âin-state tuition for illegalsâ bill is not far off from the ongoing Republican-created practice of rewarding illegal aliens in high school with cost-free public college seats in Georgiaâs âdual enrollmentâ program that has no system of checking immigration status at all. Gov. Kemp is quietly pushing HB444 through the Legislature with the intent of reducing costs to taxpayers in the dual enrollment program, but he refuses to add a badly needed requirement that the University System of Georgia weed out the âundocumentedâ from admission.
To get a view of how far many, if not most, Georgia Republican legislators have strayed from pro-enforcement conservative values, the Atlanta paper reports that âLindsey Tippins, a Republican from Marietta who is the Senateâs Higher Education Committee chairman, declined comment Thursday, saying he hadnât seen the (in-state tuition) bill and wanted to wait until the legislation comes to his chamber before discussing it.â

While real conservatives instantly recognize the Dem attempt to get a foot in the door for equal benefits for illegals (their hoped-for future voting base), Tippins clearly has his finger in the wind and is taking the âletâs wait to see if anyone is lookingâ attitude on giving illegal aliens in Georgia what we will not give to legal immigrants and U.S. citizens in Chattanooga or any other place in the U.S.A.
At our pro-enforcement house, we have this filed in the now very thick and expanding âwhy we arenât Republicansâ folder.

Kemp’s broken campaign promise
There is a reason we quit the Georgia Republican Party â and it is centered around the fact that in a state with more illegal aliens than green card holders, illegal immigration has become a forbidden topic in an effort to court the fabled âsuburban moderatesâ and Hispanics. This insulting and dangerous treachery is not going to drive conservative independent voters to the polls in November. Including us.
January 7, 2020
DEAR EDITOR:
In November a male foreign national with an ICE detainer was arrested in Marietta for sexually molesting two teenage boys for years starting when the boys were ages 8 and 9. Just after Christmas another alien with an ICE hold, Juan Antonio Gonzalez, was arrested by Cobb police and booked into the county jail facing six felonies including murder, aggravated assault, fleeing police and possessing a gun during the commission of a crime. We know this because the MDJ reported it. Thank you.
While Gov. Kemp is endlessly boasting of his business-first approach to governing Georgia and the âNo. 1 for businessâ ranking from some magazine, what the MDJ and the rest of the state media are not reporting is that these two examples of vicious crimes by illegal aliens illustrate part of a broken campaign promise from Kemp.
Readers who can remember back to 2018 may recall âBrian Kempâs Track and Deport Planâ which was a particularly detailed campaign pledge to voters aimed at illegal aliens who commit additional crimes. It went like this: âAs governor, conservative businessman Brian Kemp will create a comprehensive database to track criminal aliens in Georgia. He will also update Georgia law to streamline deportations from our jails and prisons.â
We have no hope of Kemp going after the employers who draw the âundocumentedâ cheap labor into our state. That would upset the business donors. But at our house we have been waiting to see Kemp follow through on his tough talk on illegal alien crime. Including the two examples above, we challenge anyone to find any mention from Kemp â or the Georgia media â of the campaign promise, new laws, tracking criminal aliens or illegal alien databases.
There is a reason we quit the Georgia Republican Party â and it is centered around the fact that in a state with more illegal aliens than green card holders, illegal immigration has become a forbidden topic in an effort to court the fabled âsuburban moderatesâ and Hispanics. This insulting and dangerous treachery is not going to drive conservative independent voters to the polls in November. Including us.
We were drop-mouthed astounded to see that Governor Kemp was not asked about his broken campaign promises on illegal immigration when the MDJ interviewed him recently. It cannot be said too many times that Georgia is home to more illegal aliens than green card holders and that Kemp presented himself as a pro-enforcement champion during the campaign. He promised to create a âtrack and deport planâ and a âdatabase of criminal aliens.â
In last yearâs legislative session, a simple bill (HB202) that would have made public a quarterly count of criminal illegal aliens in the state prison system was kept from a vote by the Speaker David Ralston-controlled Republican House without a murmur from Kemp. This would have allowed voters to see one monetary cost of the vaunted illegal âcheap laborâ the donor class employs with impunity while taxpayers foot the bills.
Many Georgia families have been permanently separated at the hands of illegal aliens. How many more innocents must die before this overtakes âbusiness-friendlyâ as âan issue?â Perhaps Gov. Kemp should go talk to our dear friend Kathy Inman in Woodstock and ask about her son Dustin who was killed by an illegal and is forever age sixteen.
There are many conservatives out here who remember Kempâs immigration campaign promises and we can hear the complete silence of Gov. Kemp on the topic since the election. Now we wonder about the silence from the MDJ. We stopped wondering about the silence on illegal immigration from Georgia Republicans years ago.
My wife is a proud immigrant. So we hope the silly âthatâs an anti-immigrant letterâ idiocy that will likely follow is ignored. Here
