Trump Vows To Send Millitary, Close Southern Border To Block Migrants


Recommended Posts

No dude, we his supporters just understand him . Selective non-enforcement of laws as the Dems (and their supporters) see fit have brought us to this point. Not passing Trumps fix for the DACA people in this country weakens this country. Importing uninformed humans from pooer countries and treating them like they are cattle or sheep, in hopes that they will vote for the Dems once the Dems fanagle a way for them to vote illegally ... weakens this country. We should have the same legal penalties Mexico has for illegal immigrants, an automatic 5 year sentence in hard labor first, with barely a trial. Then deportation after they are released from jail. If we enforce a immigration law like that the Dems would cry and protest like crazy; just like they did when Trump got elected. The Dems are just sore loosers that are crying like little babies because their Socialistic One World Globalistic Government hopes are falling apart in front of their very eyes. Not for much longer can the Dems call those American Patriots that want to  simply enforce our laws Nazi's .

One day after U.S. Northern Commander Gen. Terrence O'Shaughnessy said he had no idea where anyone got the idea that he was preparing to send as many as 14,000 troops to the southern border, his boss, the commander in chief, floated an even higher number. “As far as the caravan is concerned, our military is out,” President Trump told reporters at the White House yesterday as he prepared to leave for a rally in Florida. “We'll go up to anywhere between 10,000 and 15,000 military personnel on top of Border Patrol, ICE and everybody else at the border.”

On Tuesday, O’Shaughnessy said the total number of active-duty troops to be deployed to the border had not been determined, but he flatly dismissed the 14,000 number as “not consistent with what's actually being planned.” The number was reported by Newsweek on Monday night. “I honestly don't even know where that came from. That is not in line with what we've been planning.”

ABOUT THOSE TENTS: Trump yesterday repeated his plan to hold any members of the migrant caravan who legally apply for asylum at the border in tent cities until their cases are adjudicated. “We're not doing any releases anymore. We're not going to release and let them never come back to trial. We'll build tent cities, we'll build whatever we have to build in terms of housing, but we're not doing releases,” he said.

Again, one day before, O’Shaughnessy insisted he had no orders to build tent cities for migrants. “With respect to Operation Faithful Patriot as it sits right now, the request that we have from Department of Homeland Security and [Customs and Border Protection] is to build tents to support CBP personnel and our military personnel,” he said. “As these conditions change, there very well could be further requests at which we will respond to, if required, to build additional or separate facilities.”

‘WE DON’T DO STUNTS’: With the potential military deployment now outnumbering the size of the caravan by more than 3-to-1, critics have argued the threat from the caravan is being hyped, and that the military response is at best unnecessary and at worst a political stunt.

“We've asked a lot of our service members, men and women and their families over the last 17 years,” retired Marine Col. Dave Lapan said on CNN last night. “This is not a needed deployment wherein we need to pull them away from their homes, their families and their regular jobs and their training to send them down to something that's not really a national security threat,” said Lapan, a former Pentagon Department of Homeland Security spokesman.

“We don't do stunts in this department,” Mattis told reporters at the Pentagon yesterday during a meeting with his South Korean counterpart. “The support that we provide to the secretary for homeland security is practical support based on the request from the commissioner of customs and border police.”

Lapan says he understands Mattis is in a tough spot. “My belief is that Secretary Mattis is looking at this as a lawful order from the commander in chief. As the secretary of defense, he and his department are going to carry out that order to the best of their abilities,” he said. “I guess the point I would make is can the U.S. military undertake this mission and do it successfully? Yes. Should they do it? I would say no.”

‘VERY BAD THUGS’: Trump continued to portray the thousands of migrant asylum seekers walking north from southern Mexico as rife with “some very bad thugs and gang members,” as he put it in tweet yesterday. “They've got a lot of rough people in those caravans. They are not angels,” he said at his rally in Estero, Fla.

The Pentagon has not confirmed that the group includes criminal and terrorists, but O'Shaughnessy did say this is different from past demonstrations. “I think what we have seen is we've seen clearly an organization at a higher level than we've seen before,” he told reporters Tuesday. “We've seen violence coming out of the caravan and we've seen as they've passed other international borders, we've seen them behave in a nature that has not been what we've seen in the past.”

"Don't Ever Repeat This": Beto Aides Busted Funneling Caravan Funds In Undercover Sting

Profile picture for user Tyler Durden
Fri, 11/02/2018 - 07:33

James O'Keefe's undercover operatives at Project Veritas have done it again; this time filming campaign staffers for Congressman and US Senate candidate Robert Francis "Beto" O'Rourke, seemingly engaging in the illegal use of campaign resources to help transport Honduran nationals traveling in the Central American caravan headed towards the southern US border. 

O'Rourke staffers Dominic Chacon and AnaPaula Themann admit to facilitating transportation to airports and bus stations.

 

Via Project Veritas

Chacon: “The Hondurans, yeah… I’m going to go get some food right now, like just some stuff to drop off…”

Themann: “How did they get through?”

Chacon: “Well I think they accepted them as like asylum-seekers… So, I’m going to get some groceries and some blankets…”

Themann: “Don’t ever repeat this and stuff but like if we just say that we’re buying food for a campaign event, like the Halloween events…

Chacon: “That’s not a horrible idea, but I didn’t hear anything. Umm, we can wait until tomorrow for that.

Themann: “Well that’s exactly the food we need. And I will just mark it as, I do have dozens of block walkers.”

VERITAS: O'Rourke Campaign Staffers Transporting Caravan Migrants to "airports… bus stations," using campaign resources - say "Don’t ever repeat this…" FULL REPORT --- https://www.projectveritasaction.com/2018/11/01/beto/ 

 
 

Featured in this report are campaign staffers who work on Congressman O’Rourke’s US Senate campaign discussing how they use campaign resources to help Honduran aliens and transport them to airports and bus stations. Said Dominic Chacon and AnaPaula Themann, who work on O’Rourke’s campaign:

Chacon: “The Hondurans, yeah… I’m going to go get some food right now, like just some stuff to drop off…”

Themann: “How did they get through?”

Chacon: “Well I think they accepted them as like asylum-seekers… So, I’m going to get some groceries and some blankets…”

Themann: “Don’t ever repeat this and stuff but like if we just say that we’re buying food for a campaign event, like the Halloween events…”

Chacon: “That’s not a horrible idea, but I didn’t hear anything. Umm, we can wait until tomorrow for that.”

Themann: “Well that’s exactly the food we need. And I will just mark it as, I do have dozens of block walkers.”

Using “pre-paid credit cards” … “some sort of violation”

A Project Veritas Action attorney reviewed the footage and assessed:

“The material Project Veritas Action Fund captured shows campaign workers covering up the true nature of spending of campaign funds and intentionally misreporting them. This violates the FEC’s rules against personal use and misreporting. It also violates Section 1001, making a false statement to the federal government. The FEC violations impose civil penalties, including fines of up to $10,000 or 200 percent of the funds involved. Violations of Section 1001 are criminal and include imprisonment of up to five years.”

Chacon and Themann also explain how they go about concealing their use of campaign funds for alien support purposes:

Themann: “There’s actually stores that just mark it as ‘food’ they don’t mark different types… at Albertsons, on the receipts, it marks it just based off of brand…”

Chacon: “I think we can use that with those [campaign pre-paid] cards to buy some food, all that s**t can be totally masked like, oh we just wanted a healthy breakfast!”

Themann says that she doesn’t “want to make it seem like all of us are from [the O’Rourke campaign]” when going to distribute supplies to the Honduran aliens. She adds, “I just hope nobody that’s the wrong person finds out about this.”

Chacon elaborates on the usage of pre-paid campaign cards, saying, “We’re going to use more of those cards to get them more supplies too. So it’s all going to work out. I’m done being nice. I’m done being professional. [Be]cause nothing is professional. None of this is like s**t there is a rule book for, you know?”

Later in the report, Chacon also reveals “there’s not really an approval process” regarding the usage of the pre-paid cards, and that “we can just go and get the food and we can come up with a BS excuse like as to why we needed to get this stuff.” He adds, “Under the table just sort of do it.”

“Nobody needs to know”

Chacon explains that Jody Casey, the campaign manager for the O’Rourke campaign, was happy to hear about their efforts supporting aliens with campaign funds:

Chacon: “She texted us afterward and was like, I’m so happy that we have a staff that gets it and was there, I was so happy to see y’all there, still working, still contributing, we have the best team ever… she was good about it.”

Journalist: “So, Jody knows?”

Chacon: “Well, she doesn’t know we used the pre-paid card, but she doesn’t need to know.”

Added Chacon, when discussing the possibility for using campaign vans to help the Honduran aliens, “we could probably get away with using the vans… Nobody needs to know.” Chacon also says, “For me, I can just ignore the rules and I’m like f**k it.”

When asked about using campaign resources to help the Honduran aliens, Casey said “don’t worry”:

Journalist: “It just made me really concerned, like, you know, because I know that we’re using some of the campaign resources to help with the migrants and like, I just didn’t want anybody to get in trouble with that…”

Journalist: “Like I didn’t want them to ask me any questions about people using resources…”

Jody Casey: “Don’t worry.”

Andrea Reyes, who also works on the O’Rourke campaign, revealed that she has text messages showing she received approval for using the pre-paid cards:

Reyes: “The thing is yeah, as long as we’re not advertising it. I mean yeah, I don’t really know. They said it was fine sooo *throws hands up* I mean I don’t know, okay. I told you about it! I have the text messages to prove it, sooo…”

Journalist: “So you told Jody?”

Reyes: “Yeah. I told Jody and I told my director.”

When asked about using campaign vans to assist the Honduran aliens, Chacon reveals that they are going to transport the aliens to airports and bus stations:

Chacon: “… we’re going to give rides to some of the immigrants too. Like to the airport, to the bus station, like why not, you know?”

 

Just asked campaign manager @jodyforbeto Jody Casey about the tapes we’re about to launch on @BetoORourke appearing to show campaign funds used illegally for caravan purposes. The footage implicates Jody and her staff. She said “no comment” multiple times. Launch in an hour...

Rep. Beto O'Rourke responded to allegations by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) that O'Rourke staffers have been illegally funneling campaign funds to help transport Honduran nationals traveling in the Central American caravan headed towards the southern US border.

beto%20mic.jpg

In Friday comments, Cruz cited an undercover sting by Project Veritas in which O'Rourke campaign staffers Dominic Chacon and AnaPaula Themann appear to admit to facilitating helping transport migrants to airports and bus stations. 

Cruz referred to the video while campaigning in Fort Worth, telling a crowd of about 300 that "a video broke this morning of his campaign staffers taking campaign money and apparently using it to give it to people coming here illegally." -Dallas Morning News

O'Rourke responded, telling the Dallas Morning News "We're looking at this, but anyone who is trying to politicize this is trying to win an election base on fear. I want to make sure that we're focused on the issues that matters most to Texas." 

"I am comfortable that the campaign is above board, that everything is being reported to the FEC and I'm going to also make sure that I understand that's going on, but from everything I've heard, that's the sum of it," added O'Rourke. 

James O'Keefe of Project Veritas challenged O'Rourke on Friday to "make the records public." 

 

DEVELOPING: BETO RESPONDS TO UNDERCOVER VIDEO OF CAMPAIGN STAFF... Let's see the FEC records then, if "the campaign is above board" then make the records public!

 
 
 

BETO DEVELOPING: If "appropriately reported" then why were the staff on video saying "nobody needs to know," "I just hope nobody that's the wrong person finds out about this" "If you get caught in some sort of violation that's like a $50,000 fine" "I can just ignore the rules..."

 
 

Staffers for O'Rourke were captured on undercover video telling O'Keefe's undercover operatives amontg other things "Don’t ever repeat this and stuff but like if we just say that we’re buying food for a campaign event, like the Halloween events…” adding "I just hope nobody that's the wrong person finds out about this.

Perhaps sensing that the Veritas video would cement a victory for recent Trump ally Ted Cruz, O'Rourke picked up an endorsement Friday from former CIA Director, John Brennan, who tweeted: "I believe Beto O’Rourke is the type of individual Texans need in the U.S. Senate to represent their best interests. He has the integrity, intellect, and character that is in short supply in Congress." 

 

As a former resident of Texas and a proud UT-Austin alumnus, I believe Beto O’Rourke is the type of individual Texans need in the U.S. Senate to represent their best interests. He has the integrity, intellect, and character that is in short supply in Congress. Vote!

Ok. Catapult 5 rocks at those who throw 1 rock at us. Standing there and just taking the hits and doing nothing is insane. Don't start nothing, won't be nothing.

***///

When we corral 'em all up & drop 'em in tent camps whilst

 

the kommie lawyers intentionally slow-up the "asylum" process,

 

it'll start to get to 'em & they'll turn on each other like a bunch of rabid dogs.

 

Of course the kommies'll scream how in-humane it is & insist Trump release 'em all...

 

We vote they drop 'em on Pelosi's & Schumer's front lawns.
