◼ A source tipped me off last week to a curious occurrence: It seems that two planeloads of illegal aliens were recently shipped to Massachusetts. - Michelle Malkin/GOPusa
The first reportedly landed at Hanscom Air Force Base in Bedford. According to my tipster, approximately 160 illegal immigrants arrived on that flight and stayed nearly a week before being transferred to a Department of Homeland Security site and then released.
The second flight reportedly was diverted from Hanscom to Boston's Logan Airport this past weekend. I am told that both Massachusetts and New Hampshire officials were on hand. I reached out to Hanscom AFB for confirmation, but did not receive a call back by my deadline.
Question: How many other military bases are stealthily being used to redistribute, house, process and release illegal border crossers?
A makeshift detention center in Nogales, Ariz., is being used as the central clearing station for the latest illegal alien surge. The deluge is a threat to national security, public safety and public health -- not to mention a slap in the face to the law-abiding men and women in uniform on those bases and a kick in the teeth to law-abiding people around the world patiently waiting for approval of their visas.
...The latest "crisis" is a wholly manufactured byproduct of White House administrative amnesties, which are supported by a toxic alliance of ethnic-vote-seeking Democrats and cheap-labor-hungry Big Business Republicans. The flood comes just as Obama's DHS announced a two-year extension for beneficiaries of the "Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals" (DACA) program. A whopping 560,000 illegal aliens have been granted amnesty under DACA and also have received employment authorization.
As I've said for two decades, illegal alien amnesties guarantee two things: more illegal immigration and more Democratic voters. Now we have a White House forcing U.S. military bases to provide interminable benefits and services to illegal aliens for political gain, while said White House evades responsibility for allowing military veterans to die waiting for the most basic of medical services.
And where's the GOP "leadership" in this country? Doing the bidding of the amnesty-loving U.S. Chamber of Commerce and demonizing Republican candidates at every level who are sick and tired of giving away the store and the country.
God save us from bipartisanship. (More details, at the link.)
◼ Leaked Docs: Here’s What DHS Is Doing With All Those Illegal Immigrant Children - Daily Caller
The Daily Caller has obtained documents used in an off-the-record conference call being conducted by the Federal Emergency Management Agency for Congressional staffers on how the Obama administration is handling thousands of young illegal immigrants who are coming to the U.S. alone.
The young immigrants, called Unaccompanied Children, or UACs, are being housed at several U.S. military installations as well as with 94 Unaccompanied Children Shelter Grantees throughout the U.S., the document reveals.
FEMA is coordinating the effort, which is being called a “humanitarian situation.”
...The UAC’s have also been sent to various military installations in the U.S.
On May 18, Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio began holding some of the UACs. The installation has room for 1,200, according to the document with 1,137 of the minors having been placed there.
Ventura County Naval Base outside of Oxnard, Cali. has room for 230 UACs; 91 are currently at the facility. It is operating at only 40 percent capacity, according to the document. Contractors are completing requirements to increase capacity to 575.
Fort Sill Army Base near Lawton, Okla. will begin housing UACs on Friday, according to the document. They have room for 600.
The Nogales Transition Center in Arizona and the McAllen (Texas) Customs and Border Patrol facility have room for 1,200 UACs apiece.
Plans are also being finalized on a facility in Baltimore, Maryland. It was reported earlier this week that a 1.1 million square foot abandoned Social Security Administration building will be used to house UACs there.... TheDC attempted to listen in on the call but was told that members of the press were not allowed.
