Barker's Newsbites: Wednesday, June 11, 2014


Ding, dong, the GOP House Majority Leader is gone!

Well... almost...

Eric Cantor - Boehner's butt-boy - was fired yesterday (effective come the new Congress of 2015-2016) by the "We the People" of Virginia's 7th congressional district.

GOD BLESS THE PEOPLE OF VIRGINIA'S 7TH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT...!!!

This is a massive win for "We the People" of the United States. And... pretty much a complete surprise. (What's that tell you about the media, folks? What it should demonstrate is that the mainstream "big media" - even if aligned first and foremost with the liberals... with the Democrats... will "work" with GOP insiders... progressive Republicans... "moderates"... when necessary in order to prevent news and analysis getting out which reflects well on the so-called "Tea Party" and thus might lead to getting "their" vote out.)

Folks... it's the RINOs and the Democrats against the Tea Party. 

Folks... it's also those who control such "conservative" media as Fox News and the Wall Street Journal who align themselves with the GOP Establishment against the Tea Party.

Folks... here's the thing... there is no "Tea Party." It's not a political party - it's an ideal. And my friends, what a wonderful ideal it is! The Tea Party ideal stands for the Constitution... for the Rule of Law... for Responsibility, Rationality, and the Values which created America and made her great!

I'm a Tea Partier! The Founders were the original Tea Partiers! When you hear those who disdain "Tea Party Americans" you should be raising a quizzical eyebrow and asking questions such as, "Well, what about the Constitution is it you disdain? Which Founders do you look upon with contempt? Would I be wrong to believe you'd have been a Tory hostile to the Patriot cause had you lived in America's Revolutionary period... because you sure sound as if you're no fan of the ideals of our Founders!"

My friends, either you help me spread the word and educate our fellow citizens or else there's simply no hope to save this country. I also ask that you open your wallets to "Tea Party" candidate hoping to take down "old bull" Republican Establishmentarians... aka: fakes, phonies, and frauds.

Oh... and beware... not all of these fakes, phonies, and frauds are "old bulls." Some are in their 40's and 50's... some are retreads such as my own former (one term) RINO congresswoman, Nan Hayworth, who is in "the game" for the money, status, and power - not necessarily in that order. 

Holder LOVED Nan! Boehner LOVED Nan! "We the People...???" We threw her out on her ass after she showed us that she LOVED the likes of Holder and Boehner right back... back and above and beyond any loyalty she felt to her constituents and the ideals (false as it turned out) she campaigned upon.

Anyway... today is a day to celebrate! Down with the RINOs! Up with the Tea Party!

The surge in illegal immigrants jumping the U.S. border in recent weeks is almost entirely due to U.S. policy, according to an internal Border Patrol intelligence memo that says the immigrants are taking advantage of the catch-and-release system of enforcement.

* OF COURSE IT'S DELIBERATE! IT'S WHAT OBAMA WANTS!

The immigrants come seeking “permisos,” which apparently are the “Notices to appear” or NTAs, the legal documents given to non-Mexicans caught at the border that officially put them in deportation proceedings — but that also grant them at least a temporary entry to the interior of the U.S.

* INSANITY!

According to the memo, which was viewed by The Washington Times and mentioned at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Wednesday, agents interviewed more than 200 non-Mexican immigrants on May 28, and 95% of them said they came because they’d heard they could get a “permiso,” or “free pass.”

* DUH!

“This information is apparently common knowledge in Central America and is spread by word of mouth, and international and local media,” the memo reads. “A high percentage of the subjects interviewed stated their family members in the U.S. urged them to travel immediately, because the United States government was only issuing immigration ‘permisos’ until the end of June 2014.”

The memo conflicts with the Obama administration’s public stance that the surge in unaccompanied minors and young women with families is due to spiking violence in Central America, not to lax enforcement in the U.S.

* FOLKS... WE KNOW OBAMA AND HIS PEOPLE WILL SAY AND DO ANYTHING - LEGAL OR NOT, HONORABLE OR NOT, PRODUCTIVE AND COMPETENT OR NOT - TO ADVANCE THEIR IDEOLOGY.

* FOLKS... OBAMA LIES... HE AND HIS PEOPLE LIE ALL THE TIME.

“Although economic and security concerns also influenced their decision to travel to the U.S., the issuance of ‘permisos’ to family unites was the primary reason for leaving their countries,” the memo says. “The subjects also indicated that ‘everyone’ in their home countries is aware that ‘permisos’ are being issued to family units in south Texas.”

Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, testifying to the Senate, said he hadn’t seen the memo but disputed some of the conclusions.

(*ROLLING MY EYES*)

The new memo could explain the phenomenon border agents have reported encountering where illegal immigrants cross into the U.S. and then flag down the Border Patrol, knowing that they will be given an NTA and eventually released. Most of the immigrants reported having family or friends they were going to connect with in the U.S. — many of them also here illegally.

Mexicans and Canadians caught illegally entering at the border are generally returned immediately. But under U.S. law, those from non-contiguous countries are given NTAs and put into formal removal proceedings, or deportation.

* U.S. LAW IS AN ASS! IF WE DIDN'T LET THEM IN IN THE FIRST PLACE THEY'D BE MEXICO'S PROBLEM... OR CANADA'S.

Many of them never show up for those proceedings, instead fading into the shadows of illegal immigrant communities across the country.

* IMAGINE THAT... (*SNORT*)

The recent numbers are astounding. Border apprehensions — a rough proxy for the total flow of persons trying to cross the border — have spiked 74% in the Rio Grande Valley sector this year...

(*JUST SHAKING MY HEAD*)

The Border Patrol memo describes a complex smuggling system south of the border, with smugglers controlling where and how the illegal immigrants cross the border. The immigrants are routinely robbed of their possessions by the smugglers just ahead of the final crossing, the memo said.

* OBAMA MIGHT AS WELL SURRENDER HIMSELF TO WORLD AUTHORITIES AS A CO-CONSPIRATOR IN THIS TRAGEDY...

http://www.breitbart.com/Breitbart-Texas/2014/06/11/Crisis-Leaves-Border-Unprotected-Cartels-in-Control-Says-BP-Union

The massive influx of adults and minors crossing into the U.S. from Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador has brought the Customs and Border Protection agency (CPB) past its capacity to provide security at the U.S./Mexico border, according to the National Border Patrol Council (NBPC).

In an interview with Breitbart Texas, NBPC Vice President Shawn Moran revealed that the Mexican cartels control the flow of illegal immigrants across Mexico through the monopoly on coyotes, otherwise known as human smugglers. “Mexican cartels are exploiting this crisis to get their shipments through. They know our schedules, our shifts, our manpower, and how we react to these situations,” said Vice President Moran.

“The cartels control the flow of people from south of our border. The coyotes are mostly at the employ of the cartels. They rent the smuggling routes that are protected by the cartel enterprises. We are being completely reactive and chasing the cartel activity. "Today they are using the RGV sector [Rio Grande Valley], but they could begin using another sector instead at any moment.” Moran was referring to the mass re-assignment of Border Patrol agents to Texas from western states like Arizona.

The fact that the CPB has taken so much time to reorganize federal assets to handle the crisis along the Texas border with Mexico indicates an inability to preempt the Mexican cartels and be ready for their next move, according to Vice President Moran. He stated, “The CPB is unable to quickly react to the changing trends in illegal immigration and drug smuggling.”

He said the Border Patrol agents were exhausted and overwhelmed, but still doing their best to keep Americans safe and enforce our laws. He stated, “Even though our pay has been cut and we are working in horrible conditions, Border Patrol agents are doing their best in a phenomenally difficult situation. We are trying to balance providing enough personnel to handle the influx in the holding facilities while still trying to keep enough agents on the line.”

“Since the CPB started reducing the hours agents can work, we have seen an overall increase in smuggling and illegal alien crossing,” he said. “The CBP is controlling the number of hours agents can work and we are desperately trying to keep enough agents in the field and still handle the processing of the illegal aliens we catch, but we are leaving vast swaths of the border unprotected.” He added, “The cartels know our limitations and our weak points and they are taking full advantage of them.”

* HEY, FOLKS... THINK ABOUT THIS CONCEPT... LIMITED RESOURCES, UNLIMITED "NEED." HOW DO YOU THINK OBAMACARE IS GONNA DEAL WITH THIS CONCEPT...? HMM...??? (YOU'VE SEEN THE WAY THE VA HAS DEALT WITH IT...)

The cost for the lodging, entertainment, and security by the Secret Service for the June 2013 Africa trip by President Barack Obama and his family cost $2,189,727, according to documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act by the government watchdog group Judicial Watch.

* NOT INCLUDING THE ACTUAL AIR TRAVEL! (AS TO SECURITY, TO BE FAIR ONLY "EXTRA" SECURITY SHOULD BE COUNTED.)

In addition, the flight costs to, around, and from Africa for that trip cost $8,104,224, and the total cost of the trip has been estimated by numerous media reports as somewhere between $60 million and $100 million.

* FOLKS... THIS APPLIES TO ALL PRESIDENTS... (*DEEP BREATH*) CUT... IT... OUT...!!!

“The Obamas clearly either do not understand the value of a dollar – or understand it all too well when someone else is picking up the tab,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton in a statement. “Keep in mind that this outrageously lavish excursion came at the very same time that the president was shutting down White House tours and blaming it on the sequester. As one congressional critic noted at the time, the White House could have 1,350 weeks of tours for the cost of the Obama family’s trip to Africa.”

The sub-Saharan Africa trip occurred from June 27 to July 3, 2013. The president’s wife and daughters went on the excursion.

Obama’s Secret Service Entourage in Africa Cost Taxpayers Over $2M

* HOW...?!?! SERIOUSLY... HOW...?!?!

According to the documents from the Department of Homeland Security obtained by Judicial Watch, hotel costs for the Secret Service over seven days was $953,788.18, or about $136,255 per day.

* INSANITY... SHEER INSANITY...

A safari in Tanzania for the Obamas was planned but later cancelled. The cost of the Secret Service preparations for that safari were $11,525.75.

During the trip, the Obamas visited Senegal, South Africa and Tanzania. As reported at the time by the Washington Post, “One hundred agents are needed as ‘post-standers’ – to man security checkpoints and borders around the president – in each of the first three cities he visits. … In addition, 80 to 100 additional agents will be flown in to work rotating shifts, with round-the clock coverage, for Obama’s and his family’s security details, counterassault teams and logistics coordinators.”

* INSANTIY...
