Feds Seize 7 Tons of Cartel Marijuana at California Border
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers working a cargo facility on the Mexican border in southern California seized over seven tons of marijuana. The seizure came in spite of the legalization of the drug in that western state.
A Mexican citizen driving a 1994 Freightliner and pulling a trailer attempted to cross the Otay International Border Crossing port of entry on Thursday morning. The driver reported he was transporting a load of furniture.Officers referred the 47-year-old Mexican national, who was not named by CBP officials, to a secondary inspection station. A scan of the trailer revealed anomalies with the shipment, information provided to Breitbart Texas stated.
An interior inspection of the trailer revealed stacked boxes and not the furniture the driver claimed to be hauling. Officers opened the boxes and discovered shrink-wrapped packages of what they would later test to be marijuana.
In total, the CBP officers found 587 bundles of marijuana inside the trailer. The load weighed in at 14,219 pounds and has an estimated street value of $7.1 million.
“My officers are out there rain or shine to disrupt illicit activity,” Otay Mesa cargo Port Director Rosa Hernandez said in the written statement. “This seizure demonstrates that and their commitment to keeping our community safe from dangerous contraband.”
The man was turned over to Homeland Security investigations for further investigation. The marijuana and the tractor-trailer were seized.
One week earlier, Breitbart Texas reported that CBP officers in Arizona also seized a multi-million marijuana load. A K-9 officer alerted officials to the presence of the marijuana in a truck load of watermelons being transported through the Mariposa Commercial Facility in Nogales, Arizona. Instead of watermelons, officers discovered 14,800 pounds of marijuana. The unidentified 51-year-old Mexican national from Nogales, Sonora, Mexico, was arrested and turned over to investigators.

Cartels Help Terrorists in Mexico Get to U.S. to Explore Targets; ISIS Militant Shaykh Mahmood Omar Khabir among Them
Our Corruption Chroniclesblog is the place to go to see the truth about the existential national
security threat from our nation's largely unprotected and thoroughly
compromised southern border. The report we put this week will have you
wondering if anyone here in DC - Republican or Democrat - is thinking
about our nation's safety:
Mexican drug traffickers help Islamic terrorists stationed in Mexico cross into the United States to explore targets for future attacks, according to information forwarded to Judicial Watch by a high-ranking Homeland Security official in a border state. Among the jihadists that travel
back and forth through the porous southern border is a Kuwaiti named Shaykh Mahmood Omar Khabir, an ISIS operative who lives in the Mexican state of Chihuahua not far from El Paso, Texas. Khabir trained hundreds
of Al Qaeda fighters in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Yemen and has lived in Mexico for more than a year, according to information provided by JW's government source.
Now Khabir trains thousands of men-mostly
Syrians and Yemenis-to fight in an ISIS base situated in the Mexico-U.S.
border region near Ciudad Juárez, the intelligence gathered by JW's
source reveals. Staking out U.S. targets is not difficult and Khabir
actually brags in an Italian newspaper article
published last week that the border region is so open that he "could
get in with a handful of men, and kill thousands of people in Texas or
in Arizona in the space of a few hours." Foreign Affairs Secretary
Claudia Ruiz, Mexico's top diplomat, says in the article that she
doesn't understand why the Obama administration and the U.S. media are
"culpably neglecting this phenomenon," adding that "this new wave of
fundamentalism could have nasty surprises in store for the United
States."
This disturbing development appears on the Open Source
Enterprise, the government database that collects and analyzes valuable
material from worldwide print, broadcast and online media sources for
the U.S. intelligence community. Only registered federal, state and
local government employees can view information and analysis in the vast
database and unauthorized access can lead to criminal charges. Updated
data gathered on Khabir reveals he's 52 years old and was ordered to
leave Kuwait about a decade ago over his extremist positions. Khabir is
currently on ISIS's (also known as ISIL) payroll and operates a cell in
an area of Mexico known as Anapra, according to the recently obtained
information.
A year ago Judicial Watch reported
on an ISIS camp in this exact area, just a few miles from El Paso.
JW's April 14, 2015 report identified Anapra as the location of the ISIS
base, details that were provided to JW by sources that include a
Mexican Army field grade officer and a Mexican Federal Police Inspector.
Anapra is situated just west of Ciudad Juárez in the Mexican state of
Chihuahua. At the time JW reported that another ISIS cell was
established to the west of Ciudad Juárez, in Puerto Palomas to target
the New Mexico towns of Columbus and Deming. Sources told JW that,
during the course of a joint operation, Mexican Army and federal law
enforcement officials discovered documents in Arabic and Urdu, as well
as "plans" of Fort Bliss - the sprawling military installation that
houses the US Army's 1st Armored Division. Muslim prayer rugs were
recovered with the documents during the operation.
A few months later JW reported
that Mexican drug cartels are smuggling Middle Eastern terrorists into a
small Texas rural town near El Paso and that they're using remote farm
roads-rather than interstates-to elude the Border Patrol and other law
enforcement barriers. The foreigners are classified by the U.S.
government as Special Interest Aliens (SIA) and they are transported to
stash areas in Acala, a rural crossroads located around 54 miles from El
Paso on a state road - Highway 20. Once in the U.S., the SIAs wait for
pick-up in the area's sand hills just across Highway 20. At the time
JW's government sources revealed that terrorists have long entered the
U.S. through Mexico and in fact, an internal Texas Department of Public
Safety report leaked by the media documents that several members of
known Islamist terrorist organizations have been apprehended crossing
the southern border in recent years.
Earlier this year, as part of an ongoing investigation into national security risks in the porous southern border, JW obtained evidence
that proves the U.S. government has known for more than a decade about
the partnership between terrorists and Mexican drug cartels. State
Department documents made public by JW in January say that for at least
ten years "Arab extremists" have entered the country through Mexico with
the assistance of smuggling network "cells." Among them was a top Al
Qaeda operative wanted by the FBI. Some Mexican smuggling networks
actually specialize in providing logistical support for Arab individuals
attempting to enter the United States, the government documents say.
The top Al Qaeda leader in Mexico was identified in the September 2004
cable from the American consulate in Ciudad Juárez as Adnan G. El
Shurkrjumah. The cable was released to Judicial Watch under the Freedom
of Information Act (FOIA).
We see debate in the presidential campaign about building a wall with Mexico but our
reporting suggests the debate ought to focus on more immediate security
measures such as the deployment of our military to secure the border.
We'll keep on the alert for you. In the meantime, please share the word
and perhaps ask your elected officials why they're AWOL on border
security in the face of this potentially catastrophic threat from
Islamic terrorists.
Until next week...

Clinton claims our border is secure
Was
Hillary Clinton a stand up comic in another life? She told an Arizona
radio station in an interview that our southwest border was "secure"
because "net illegal immigration" had been cut to zero.
Washington Times:
But that's hardly the entire picture:

Washington Times:
In an interview with KTAR radio in Phoenix, Mrs. Clinton said improvements under President George W. Bush and President Obama, including several hundred miles of fencing, have cut net illegal immigration from Mexico to zero.Looking over the last 20 years of illegal immigration from Mexico, Clinton may have a point. Apprehensions at the border are way up and net immigration from Mexico has fallen.
“Now I think it’s time to turn our attention to comprehensive immigration reform,” she said, using the term immigrant rights advocates use for legislation to legalize the 11 million illegal immigrants now in the country.
Her evaluation of the border stands in stark contrast to Republican presidential candidates who say the border is not secure, pointing to increasing seizures of drugs and to the renewed surge of Central
American illegal immigrants.
But Mrs. Clinton said they’re ignoring how bad it used to be during her husband’s administration.
“I think we’ve done a really good job securing the border and I think those that say we haven’t are not paying attention to everything that was done for the last 15 years under both President Bush and President Obama,” she told KTAR. “We have increased dramatically the number of border security officers, we have added physical obstructions like fences in many places, and in fact the immigration from Mexico has dropped considerably. It’s just not happening any more.”
But that's hardly the entire picture:
But the number of Central Americans attempting the illegal crossing has surged over the last three years, leading some experts to say the border problems have shifted, not gone away.The first line of defense of our borders has a much different view of the matter. Border agents are supporting Donald Trump for his strong stand against illegal immigration:
Border Patrol agents say the new illegal immigrants are drawn by the chance to take advantage of lax enforcement of immigration laws within the U.S., which gives them the opportunity to disappear into the shadows with the 11 million other illegal immigrants already here.
Mrs. Clinton,
who will face voters in the Democratic primary in Arizona next week, has come under fire from some Hispanic activists for having voted as a senator for the Secure Fence Act, which called for building 700 miles of double-tier fencing along the southwest border.
The largest U.S. Border Patrol union local is praising Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump for being the "only candidate" to support their tough mission, an almost endorsement that is the latest boost for the front runner's campaign.Perhaps before the next time Hillary Clinton makes a fool of herself spouting immigration nonsense, she should consult the people who know the situation best; those charged with defending our borders from illegal
"Mr. Trump is the only candidate that has publicly expressed his support of our mission and our agents. He has been an outspoken candidate on the need for a Secure Border and for this we are grateful," said a statement from Art Del Cueto, president of Local 2544 of the National Border
Patrol Council, the representative of 18,000 agents.

Border Surge Solution: Send ‘Em to Camp David!
By Michelle Malkin
Human Events Online, February 17, 2016
. . .
As Brandon Judd of the National Border Patrol Council testified on Capitol Hill recently: “The cartels understood that the unaccompanied minors would force the Border Patrol to deploy Agents to these crossing areas in order to take the minors into custody. I want to stress this point because it has been completely overlooked by the press,” he told the House Judiciary Committee. The unaccompanied minors could have walked right up to the port of entry and requested asylum if they were truly escaping political persecution or violence. “Why did the cartels drive them to the middle of the desert and then have them cross over the Rio Grande only to surrender to the first Border Patrol Agent they came across?” Judd challenged.
“The reason is that it completely tied up our manpower and allowed the cartels to smuggle whatever they wanted across our border.”
This is just another maddening example of Obama’s warped priorities at work. Instead of building effective walls and enforcing our borders to prevent the coming illegal immigration waves manufactured by criminal racketeers, this administration rushes to build welcome center magnets that shelter the next generation of Democrat voters.

In Aftermath of Brussels Attacks, Conservatives Call for Border Security
In
the aftermath of Tuesday’s terror attacks in Brussels that left at
least 30 dead, conservatives in Congress say that addressing border
security is the key to ensuring terrorists don’t end up in the United
States.
In response to a question about how the country can improve its intelligence capabilities, lawmakers attending the monthly event Conversations with Conservatives pointed to securing the border as a way to stop terrorists from striking or entering the United States.
“We’ve been saying over and over this isn’t about dealing with Mexico. This is dealing with national security,” Rep. Matt Salmon, R-Ariz., told reporters Tuesday. “This dialogue about immigration and all the people that are coming across the border, it doesn’t do justice to the fact that it is a serious security breach, and if we’re going to take seriously dealing with ISIS and other terrorist groups across the globe, then we have to secure the border.”
Rep. Dave Brat, R-Va., criticized Immigration and Customs Enforcement, specifically, for failing to enforce the laws on the books, particularly when it comes to illegal immigrants who appear in court, are released, and don’t show up again.

Rep. Dave Brat, R-Va., criticized Immigration and Customs Enforcement, specifically, for failing to enforce the laws on the books, particularly when it comes to illegal immigrants who appear in court, are released, and don’t show up again.
While Brat and Salmon voiced concern over the security of the nation’s southern border, Rep. Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyo., told reporters that the country needs to focus on collecting intelligence on the ground in order to prevent terror attacks from occurring on U.S. soil.
“With regard to ISIS, I think around the world we do need to embed more into the communities that are hotbeds or breeding grounds of these radicals and try to nip it in the bud as early as possible,” she said. “I think on the ground, intelligence that’s gathered nationwide is going to have to be an ongoing source of information, and it’s not going to be inexpensive, and it’s not going to happen overnight.”
Fears surrounding U.S. security risks mounted further Tuesday after deadly bombings occurred in Brussels, killing at least 30 people and injuring more than 200. The terror attacks took place at the city’s international airport and a subway station, and ISIS later claimed responsibility for the attacks.
The bombings in Brussels came four days after Belgian authorities captured Salah Abdeslam, a suspect in November’s terror attacks, in the capital city. Abdeslam was one of 10 men police believe were directly involved in terror attacks carried out by ISIS in Paris late last year, which left 130 dead.
The terror attacks in Paris sparked a debate among lawmakers about how the U.S. should address Syrian refugees entering the country, as well as whether Congress should alter the visa waiver program.
The House of Representatives passed a bill in November toughening the screenings of Syrians looking to come to the U.S. through the refugee program. The legislation failed in the Senate.
The Republican-controlled Congress, though, ultimately passed a measure through an omnibus spending bill, signed into law by President Barack Obama, that tightened the program’s requirements and required anyone who visited Iran, Iraq, Sudan or Syria after March 1, 2011, to apply for a visa.
Following Tuesday’s terror attacks in Brussels, GOP lawmakers once again called into question the process by which people come to the U.S.
Sens. Mark Kirk, R-Ill., Tim Scott, R-S.C., and David Vitter, R-La., separately called on their colleagues and the Obama administration to reexamine both the refugee program and visa system.
Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kan., meanwhile, said it’s inevitable that terrorists will try to enter the country through the refugee program.
“You have to take ISIS at their word,” Huelskamp told The Daily Signal. “They are going to infiltrate [the refugee program], and if we had anybody else as president, even some Democrats have said we need to take a time out to understand what’s going on here. They have made it very clear they’re going to misuse our immigrant refugee system in order to infiltrate.”
The Kansas Republican, though, said it’s unlikely the president would sign legislation halting the program or lessening the number of Syrian refugees coming into the U.S. this year.
“It’s hard to imagine a situation where he would actually want to do something,” Huelskamp said.

U.S. Failed Three Times to Deport Illegal Alien Who Murdered Woman
Judicial Watch Corruption Chronicles, February 18, 2016
. . .
Here’s what we already know from local media reports in Norwich, the city of about 40,000 residents where the murder occurred; the DHS agency responsible for deporting illegal immigrants, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), failed to remove Jacques at least three times dating back to 2002. As if this weren’t atrocious enough, Jacques spent 17 years in prison for attempted murder before authorities released him—instead of deporting him—in January of 2015, the Norwich Bulletin reports. Six months later the 41-year-old illegal alien convict stabbed 25-year-old Casey Chadwick to death. Police said Chadwick died of sharp forced injuries to the head and neck. Jacques is being held on a $1 million bond.
Unfortunately, this is not an isolated case. In the last few years illegal immigrants with lengthy criminal histories have been allowed to remain in the U.S. despite being repeat offenders. Judicial Watch has investigated several of the cases and obtained public records from the government. For instance, back in 2008 JW launched a California public records request with the San Francisco Sheriff’s Department to obtain he arrest and booking information on Edwin Ramos, an illegal alien from El Salvador who murdered three innocent American citizens. Ramos was a member of a renowned violent street gang and had been convicted of two felonies as a juvenile (a gang-related assault on a bus passenger and the attempted robbery of a pregnant woman) yet he was allowed to remain in the country.

DHS says administration has 'no intention' of deporting most illegals
They're not even trying to hide their lack of enforcement of immigration law.
The president of the National Border Control Council testified before Congress that a top Homeland Security official told agents that the Obama administration has "no intention of deporting" most illegal aliens.
This "catch and release" policy amounts to a de facto amnesty for the tens of thousands of illegals who jump the border every year.
DHS claims that the policy is in place because immigration courts are clogged up. So instead of expanding the number of judges and courts, they simply give up and allow the illegals to disappear into the underground.
Washington Times:
President Obama's policies have made it only more difficult to fix this broken system. Adding to the problem by increasing the number of illegals is irresponsible governance – which just about sums up the president's terms in office.

Washington Times:
Mr. Judd provided his testimony in written answers released Monday by the House Judiciary Committee, saying that even in some criminal cases, agents are ordered to let illegal immigrants go without ever issuing them a Notice to Appear, or NTA, which is what puts them into deportation proceedings.
Mr. Judd said they took their case directly to Deputy Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who told them not to bother.
“Deputy Secretary Mayorkas told us that the Border Patrol needs to focus its resources towards the worst of the worst. He said that by prioritizing those we choose to deport, we will help alleviate the burden on an already overburdened court system,” Mr. Judd recalled.
“He further stated, ‘Why would we NTA those we have no intention of deporting?’ He also stated, ‘We should not place someone in deportation proceedings, when the courts already have a 3-6 year backlog,’” Mr. Juddrecounted. “Since the day of this meeting, we have seen no improvements in our enforcement efforts and the morale of the Border Patrol agents is one of, if not the lowest in the entire federal government.”
Immigration agents have complained for several years that Mr. Obama has tied their hands, forcing them to release illegal immigrants who should have been easy deportation cases.
Customs and Border Protection, the agency that oversees the Border Patrol, declined to comment on Mr. Judd’s testimony.
But CBP Commissioner R. Gil Kerlikowske, testifying to Congress earlier this month, brushed aside Mr. Judd’s comments, saying he didn’t believe agents were releasing people without putting them through the full process.
Mr. Kerlikowske said Mr. Judd was “probably not the most knowledgeable organization about what’s actually going on” in the field with Border Patrol agents, and he said agents that object to Mr. Obama’s policies should quit.The backog of immigration court cases is meaningless. Seventy-five percent of illegals fail to show up for their hearings anyway. And DHS has no way to keep track of those they release under this policy.
President Obama's policies have made it only more difficult to fix this broken system. Adding to the problem by increasing the number of illegals is irresponsible governance – which just about sums up the president's terms in office.
