    Pro-Trump immigrant and onetime 'Dreamer' runs for Congress as a Republican
    By Joshua Nelson | Fox News

    Republican congressional candidate Whittney Williams shares her unique story as she challenges Democrat Rep. Haley Stevens in Michigan.

    A pro-Trump immigrant and Republican congressional candidate who initially came to the U.S. illegally told Fox News she was a “dreamer” for 16 years and “it’s not a good life.”

    “I don’t wish that life upon anybody and that’s why I feel the need to speak up now, because the narrative from the left is not portraying that side of the story well,” Whittney Williams told “Fox & Friends.”

    Williams arrived in the U.S. at age 10 with her family, which she said came on a tourist visa. She and her family overstayed their visa, living in the U.S. illegally.

    “I was basically called a dreamer,” Williams, now 37, said while also noting she did not speak English at the time.

    TULSI GABBARD: 'HYPER-PARTISANSHIP' GETTING IN THE WAY OF PATHWAY TO CITIZENSHIP LEGISLATION

    Host Steve Doocey noted that President Trump ended the “dreamers program,” also known as the Deferred Action for Early Childhood Arrivals, in 2017 and asked her how she became an American citizen. Williams responded that she became a legal American citizen by marrying an American.

    “The DACA and DREAM act didn’t work for me because, even though it was proposed in 2001, nothing was done and Obama ran on campaigning by passing the DREAM Act in his first term and second term," she said. "But then nothing was done and so he used an unconstitutional executive order to put in place DACA."

    DACA was created under an executive order in 2012. The program granted illegal immigrants or "Dreamers" who were brought to the United States as children the opportunity to receive a renewable two-year reprieve from deportation and become eligible for a work permit.

    PRESIDENT TRUMP DECISION TO END DACA WAS LAWFUL, JUSTICE DEPARTMENT SAYS

    Williams, who married her American husband a decade ago, added, “That’s a temporary solution, that’s not a permanent solution and I know that President Trump is trying his best to find a permanent solution for those that are here like me, dreamers.”

    Williams is challenging Democrat Rep. Haley Stevens in Michigan's 11th Congressional District. She says her opponent has a voting record that “is not in line with the values of Michiganders because in the Midwest we have different values (than) in California so it doesn’t go well for our constituents.”

    Stevens last year flipped a Republican seat previously held by retired GOP Rep. Dave Trott.

    Border Patrol releases drone footage showing miles of ‘new wall system’ being built

    By Greg Norman | Fox News

    On front-lines of border battle, agents say Trump’s deal with Mexico paying dividends

    Illegal immigration along the U.S.-Mexico border has slowed in recent months and officials on the front-lines credit in part President Trump's dealings with Mexico. Fox News accompanied agents to see the impact first-hand.

    Drone footage released by the Border Patrol over the weekend shows miles of a “new border wall system” going up at a location in Arizona near where illegal immigrants were seen streaming into America years ago.

    The construction is taking place near San Luis and is being carried out with the help of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.


    “CBP has constructed over 60 miles of new border wall system along the SW border since 2017 and expects to complete 450 miles by the end of 2020,” the Border Patrol said in a tweet.

    The agency also tweeted footage showing how a 10-foot wall in the area “failed to impede and deny illegal entries” in 2005.

    “Today, CBP has a triple-layered enforcement zone which includes an 18’ bollard wall,” it added.

    Elsewhere in Arizona, crews were installing 30-foot steel fencing Friday to replace older barriers next to a border crossing known as Lukeville Port of Entry, which is part of the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument.

    Many Arizona residents use the crossing on their way to Rocky Point, a beach destination in Mexico.

    Construction is expected to take about 45 days. The U.S. government then plans to tackle other projects in Arizona, including nearly 40 miles of fencing in other parts of the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument and areas of Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge and San Pedro Riparian National Conservation Area.

    Workers also broke ground Friday for construction between Columbus and Santa Teresa — small towns near ports of entry along the border between New Mexico and the state of Chihuahua, Mexico.

    The taller fencing is being funded through a national emergency declaration by President Trump.

    Homan calls out states' 'stone-cold lie' and false narratives about Flores agreement change
    By David Montanaro | Fox News

    Homan calls out states' 'stone-cold lie' and false narratives about Flores agreement change

    The former acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Tuesday that 19 states and the District of Columbia are putting forth a "stone-cold lie" about the Trump administration's move to scrap the court-ordered Flores agreement.

    The Trump administration announced the decision last week, allowing for migrant families to be detained longer as their cases are being considered, instead of having to release them after 20 days. The move triggered an immediate lawsuit, which argued that the administration seeks to hold migrants in "indefinite detention."

    "That's a stone-cold lie," said the former ICE official, Tom Homan, in response on "America's Newsroom," arguing it's part of the "false narratives" being spread by the left about immigration enforcement efforts.

    CBP COMMISSIONER CALLS NEW RULE A 'GAME-CHANGER' IN FIGHT AGAINST ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION

    He said the same thing was done in the Obama administration, including when family detention centers first started being built in 2015.

    "They were held about 40 to 50 days, time enough to see a judge. Most of them lost their cases, were sent home and the border numbers went down because we showed the consequence and deterrents," Homan argued.

    The Flores ruling was the result of a 1980's case in which 15-year-old Jenny Flores was detained with adults by federal authorities after fleeing El Salvador. The Flores settlement allowed migrant children to be sent to care programs after 20 days. Acting Homeland Security Secretary Kevin McAleenan said the new rule will replace Flores, while retaining most of its terms. It is set to take effect in October.

    Homan also pushed back on claims that migrant families will be held in unacceptable conditions, saying that family residential centers are different from Border Patrol detention facilities and were specifically designed for such situations.

    He said minors have access to child psychologists, pediatricians, educational programs and recreational activities.

    "It's an open-air campus, ... they're not locked up in jail cells. These facilities were built for families and vulnerable populations," said Homan, recalling that he personally filed an affidavit while working for ICE in which he cautioned against the move to a 20-day detention period.

    Wow. Sanctuary Montgomery County fails another of it's children, enabling her rape at knifepoint by an illegal alien.

    Will they set him free like the last one?

    Illegal immigrant raped Maryland girl, 16, at knifepoint in her bedroom, police say

    By Travis Fedschun | Fox News
    An illegal immigrant in Maryland is alleged to have crawled into the bed of a teenage girl while she was taking a nap and placed a knife against her throat before proceeding to rape her, according to authorities.

    Federal officials have requested to keep the man in custody.

    The Montgomery County Police Department said Nelson Saul Reyes-Medrano, 46, is charged with first-degree rape, sex abuse of a minor, and first-degree assault in connection with the late August 2018 attack.

    A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokesman told Fox News that Reyes-Medrano was living in the U.S. illegally and the federal law enforcement agency has lodged a detainer against him.


    ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT RAPE SUSPECT RELEASED FROM MARYLAND JAIL, VIOLATING DETAINER POLICY, ICE SAYS

    Local police said the victim, who was 16 at the time, was taking a nap at the apartment where Reyes-Medrano also lived when she felt someone else get on the bed. She opened her eyes and saw the 46-year-old had positioned himself on top of her.

    "Take your clothes off," Reyes-Medrano allegedly told the victim twice according to court documents obtained by WJLA, before placing the dull side of a knife against the victim's neck.

    After the victim slowly started to undress, he allegedly grew impatient and proceeded to rape her.

    The victim told detectives she was in pain during the entire assault, which only ended after a noise was heard outside the apartment and Reyes-Medrano got off the bed, put his clothes back on and left the apartment with the knife he allegedly used to threaten the teenager.


    Accused rapist in US illegally walks free despite ICE hold request
    A rape suspect has been freed in Maryland despite a request from ICE that he remain in custody.

    A Montgomery County District Court denied bond for Reyes-Medrano, citing the severity of the allegations and pending ICE detainer, WJLA reported.

    "The allegations are incredibly serious," Judge Amy Bills said in court. "The allegations are that a knife was brandished and a first-degree rape occurred."

    ICE detainers serve as a legally authorized request, upon which a law enforcement agency may rely, to continue to maintain custody of an illegal immigrant for up to 48 hours so that ICE may assume custody for removal purposes, according to the federal agency.

    Maryland jail ignores ICE detainer request, releases illegal immigrant arrested on rape, assault charges

    Marc Elrich, executive of Montgomery County, defended his police department's decision; reaction and analysis from Fox News contributor Tom Homan, former acting ICE director.

    "Pursuant to ICE policy, all ICE detainers are submitted with an accompanying administrative arrest warrant or warrant of removal depending upon the circumstances of the individual case," an ICE spokesman told Fox News.

    The latest arrest comes after another illegal immigrant accused of rape was released from the Montgomery County Detention Center just three days after being arrested. At the time, county officials said they notified ICE that the suspect was being processed for release that day, even after the federal agency filed a detainer.

    Montgomery County, Md., designated itself for “sanctuary” status in July, according to FOX5.

    The order signed by County Executive Mark Elrich says no county agency – including police departments – can cooperate with ICE. Immigration agents are now barred from entering secure portions of county jails, and now have to take custody of illegal immigrants in public areas, such as jail parking lots.

    Majority of Federal Arrestees are Foreigners, Thousands of “Unknown Citizenship”
    [​IMG]
    Months after the U.S. Sentencing Commission revealed most federal crimes are executed by Hispanics and involve immigrants and drugs, the Department of Justice (DOJ) reports that foreigners accounted for the vast majority of federal arrests last year. Furthermore, apprehensions in the five judicial districts along the Mexican border, home to a quarter of all drug cases in 2018, have nearly doubled in the last decade. It doesn’t end there; the number of Central Americans captured by federal authorities in the five border districts tripled in one year alone and has risen 30-fold in the last two decades. During the same period, the apprehension of Mexican citizens also increased significantly.

    The disturbing figures were released this month by the DOJ’s Bureau of Justice Statistics, the government agency responsible for collecting crime data. In a 25-page report the agency outlines a distressing trend of criminal activity involving foreign nationals, revealing that non-U.S. citizens accounted for 64% of all federal arrests in 2018. “From 1998 to 2018, the share of all federal arrests by country of citizenship rose from 28% to 40% for Mexican citizens, rose from 1% to 20% for citizens of Central American countries, and fell from 63% to 36% for U.S. citizens,” the DOJ report states. The document uses tables and graphs to show an alarming increase in immigration crimes, from 20,942 back in 1998 to 58,031 in 2017 and an astonishing jump to 108,667 by 2018, marking a breathtaking 418.9% increase in two decades.

    The five judicial districts along the Mexican border—California, Arizona, New Mexico and western and southern Texas—have experienced an eye-popping 539.6% in immigration-related arrests in the last two decades. Thousands are of “unknown citizenship,” according to the federal statistics, which show a spike of 202 aliens from unknown countries to 6,657 in a few years. Besides immigration violations, drug offenses appear to be the most popular crimes committed by non-U.S. citizens, followed by fraud, alien smuggling and misuse of visas. The overwhelming majority of perpetrators are young men like the ones marching north in the Central American caravan. Judicial Watch traveled to the Guatemala-Honduras border last fall and reported that the caravan mostly included young men. Guatemalan authorities confirmed that human smugglers, violent gang members and other criminal elements are incorporated in the highly organized caravans and the federal statistics indicate it’s a problem that predates the latest convoy.

    The updated figures from the DOJ come just a few months after a separate government report disclosed that most federal crimes are executed by Hispanics, involve immigrants and drugs. In that equally alarming document, the U.S. Sentencing Commission disclosed that nearly half of all federal crimes in the United States are perpetrated by foreigners who are not American citizens and that immigration cases account for the largest single type of offense. Non-U.S. citizens committed 42.7% of all federal crimes in 2018, according to the independent agency created by Congress decades ago to reduce sentencing disparities and promote transparency and proportionality in sentencing. In its report the agency discloses that 54.3% of the 69,425 federal offenders last year were Hispanic. “Immigration cases accounted for the largest single group of offenses in fiscal year 2018, comprising 34.4% of all reported cases,” the commission writes in its annual report to Congress. “Cases involving drugs, firearms, and fraud were the next most common types of offenses after immigration cases. Together these four types of offenses accounted for 82.9 percent of all cases reported to the commission in fiscal year 2018.”

    The second largest offense category, drugs, accounted for 28.1% of federal crimes last year and most cases involved methamphetamine. Judicial Watch has reported for years on the enormous amounts of meth that enter the U.S. through Mexico. A few years ago the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reported a startling 300% increase in meth seizures coming from Mexico in one border state alone. The Sentencing Commission found that in 2018 Hispanics committed 9,020 federal drug trafficking crimes, nearly twice as many as those perpetrated by blacks (4,670) and more than double the drug trafficking offenses carried out by whites (4,499). Hispanics were also charged with more drug possession crimes (389) last year than any other group. Not surprisingly, Hispanics also committed the overwhelming amount of immigration related crimes, according to the federal statistics made public in May. Of the 23,656 immigration offenses recorded last year, Hispanics accounted for 22,782. They also committed the most money laundering crimes (504) compared to whites (444) and blacks (236), the Sentencing Commission document shows. Unlike the arrest records provided this month by the DOJ, the commission figures only include convicts that actually got sentenced.

    Judicial Watch Files Lawsuit against Santa Clara County Sanctuary Policy

    (Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that it filed a lawsuit on behalf of a County of Santa Clara, CA, taxpayer to overturn a policy that protects aliens in Santa Clara County’s custody from removal proceedings by federal immigration authorities. The taxpayer lawsuit, filed on behalf of Howard Myers, is against Laurie Smith, sheriff of Santa Clara County and Carl Neusel, acting chief of correction of Santa Clara County (Howard A. Myers v. Laurie Smith et al. (No. 19-CV-353510)).

    Santa Clara County Board Policy 3.54(B) requires Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to obtain a “judicial arrest warrant” in order for the county to transfer custody of an alien. Federal law however does not require “judicial arrest warrants” for federal authorities to detain aliens, especially for those who had been incarcerated or arrested by local authorities.

    Judicial Watch is asking the court to grant an injunction against the sanctuary policy because:

    • It is an “illegal local regulation of immigration;”
    • It is “preempted by federal law;” and
    • It is “barred by the doctrine of intergovernmental immunity,” which prevents a state from intruding on the federal government’s sovereignty.
    On February 28, 2019, Bambi Larson, a Santa Clara County resident, was murdered inside her San Jose home. According to court documents, she suffered extensive and deep wounds consistent with a cutting tool. A few weeks later, Carlos Arevalo-Carranza was arrested and charged with Larson’s murder. Arevalo-Carranza reportedly had multiple, prior convictions in Santa Clara County, including a conviction for burglary in 2015, convictions for battery of an officer, resisting arrest, and entering a property in 2016, and a conviction for false imprisonment in 2017.


    He also reportedly had multiple, prior arrests in 2015-2018 in both Santa Clara County and Los Angeles County, including arrests for possession of drug paraphernalia and methamphetamine, prowling, and false identification. At the time of Larson’s death, Arevalo-Carranza reportedly was on probation for possession of drug paraphernalia and methamphetamine, false imprisonment, and burglary.


    ICE officials sent six separate requests to Santa Clara County, when Arevalo-Carranza was about to be released from its custody, asking that he be detained long enough for federal immigration officials to take him into custody for removal proceedings. Each request was ignored because of Santa Clara County’s sanctuary policies.


    In March 2019, San Jose officials reportedly “criticized so-called sanctuary policies they say prevented federal authorities from detaining a gang member in the country illegally before he allegedly killed a woman.” The murderer was a, “self-admitted gang member,” with a “long criminal history in the San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles spanning five years.”

    “Sanctuary policies are illegal and deadly,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “Judicial Watch has been a leader (and often the only) legal opponent to sanctuary policies that ignore federal and state laws concerning immigration at the expense of the public’s safety, the rule of law, and our national security. Our new taxpayer lawsuit simply seeks to stop tax dollars from being spent on a sanctuary policy that harms public safety and undermines the rule of law.”

    Judicial Watch is also pursuing a taxpayer lawsuit against San Francisco’s illegal immigrant sanctuary policies, which is scheduled to go to trial in 2020.

    Seventh illegal immigrant accused of sex crimes in Maryland county since July 25
    By Sam Dorman | Fox News

    Seventh illegal immigrant accused of sex crimes in Maryland county in 5 weeks

    A Honduran national in the United States illegally has been accused of raping his 15-year-old stepdaughter in suburban Maryland, the seventh such case in the area over the past five weeks.

    Emilio Carrasco-Hernandez, 37, is charged with second-degree rape, sex abuse of a minor, third-degree sex offense and fourth-degree sex offense, according to WJLA.

    Emilio Carrasco-Hernandez (Montgomery County Police)

    The alleged victim spoke to Montgomery County police and claimed that her stepfather sexually assaulted her multiple times between Aug. 16 and Aug. 25. She alleged that she was unable to use the bathroom after one of the assaults because it was "very painful" and left her with a "stinging" feeling.

    ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT RAPED MARYLAND GIRL, 16, AT KNIFEPOINT IN HER BEDROOM, POLICE SAY

    "Victim A stated that she could not move and Emilio Carrasco-Hernandez was squishing her with his body," detectives reportedly said of the incident. The 200-lb. Carrasco-Hernandez allegedly kissed the girl's body and even bit her shirt in one incident.

    The victim's mother reportedly booted Carrasco-Hernandez from their Wheaton home after finding the two of them together in a bedroom. While the age of consent in Maryland is 16 years old, the mother said she believed it was a consensual act fueled by alcohol.

    [​IMG]Video
    In a statement to WJLA, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said that Carrasco-Hernandez was previously deported in April 2017, but re-entered the United States "sometime thereafter."

    Carrasco-Hernandez could face up to 56 years in state prison in convicted on all charges. He also faces up to 20 years in federal prison for re-entering the U.S. having been previously deported, an ICE official told WJLA.

    The agency reportedly placed a detainer on the Honduran national and he was put in jail without bond. He faces charges of second-degree rape, third and fourth degree sex offenses, and sex abuse of a minor.

    Since July 25, Montgomery County Police have arrested at least seven confirmed undocumented immigrants for alleged rapes and sexual assaults. Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich signed an executive order last month designating the county a "sanctuary" jurisdiction.

    The order states that no county agency – including police departments – can cooperate with ICE. Immigration agents are barred from entering secure portions of county jails, and must take custody of illegal immigrants in public areas, such as jail parking lots.

    Earlier this month, another undocumented immigrant was arrested on second-degree rape and assault charges but was released days later after the Montgomery County Jail ignored ICE's detainer request.

    Oh look, they're Hispanic. I'm shocked you would show their photos along with their biographies showing what dastardly human beings they are. This means that all Hispanics are born dastardly. Must be in their genes. Ah, now I see what you;re getting at. Nothing racist here.

    If you're looking for a common denominator it's that they are all criminals illegally in our country being shielded from justice by anti-Trumpers.

    Push whatever theory you want to troll with, these are the people who are raping children in Maryland at an unheard of rate with the full protection and assistance of Maryland anti-Trumpers (whom I presume are mostly white).

    Media Fails to Note 6 Murder Suspects are Illegal Immigrants, MS-13 Gangbangers

    The mainstream media conveniently manipulates the flow of information to keep with its liberal agenda and this week we have yet another example; widespread coverage involving the gruesome murder of a young Maryland man omits that most of the suspects are illegal immigrants affiliated with a violent criminal gang. The 21-year-old victim’s body was found at the end of July in Towson, a community of about 55,000 located roughly 11 miles north of Baltimore City. Police said the victim, Daniel Alejandro Cuellar, was found lying near an apartment building with “trauma to the body.”

    This week seven suspects were arrested and charged with first degree murder for Cuellar’s death. Baltimore County authorities published the information along with the names and mug shots of each individual. It is easy to conclude from the look of the mug shots and the accompanying names that the suspects are all Hispanic, though immigration status is not mentioned in the county bulletin. The arrested are identified as 20-year-old Jonathan Escobar-Hernandez, 20-year-old Marlon Leonardo Fabian-Flores, 18-year-old Edwin Edgardo Garcia-Martir, 31-year-old Hugo Portillo-Chavez, 19-year-old Joe Fausto Rivera-Coreas, 20-year-old Odaliz Rosas-Yanez and 16-year-old Leonel Alexander Velasquez-Hernandez. All seven are being held without bail at the Baltimore County Detention Center and face life in prison if convicted.

    The recent arrests received quite a bit of news coverage, from newspaper and radio outlets to local affiliates of national television networks. They variously rehashed the crime and cited the medical examiner’s determination that Cuellar was killed with multiple sharp force objects. One national news headline reads: “Seven People, Including Juvenile, Charged With Murder After Body Found Near Towson Apartment.” Another, published by a local outlet, simply says “Seven Charged In Baltimore County Murder.” None of the coverage bothers to mention the pertinent information regarding the suspects’ immigration status and confirmed affiliation to a famously violent criminal gang that operates all over the United States. This seems to violate the tenants of journalism, which include accuracy, fairness, objectivity and impartiality.

    We only know this essential information about these Baltimore suspects because a conservative news outlet bothered to do some real reporting. In a story appropriately titled “Media blackout: At least 6 illegal aliens charged with brutal murder in Baltimore suburb,” the Conservative Review reveals that, unlike other media outlets, it actually contacted Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to find out if the agency had detainers on any of the arrestees accused of murdering Cuellar. ICE confirmed that six of the seven are illegal aliens—five from El Salvador and one from Mexico—in the agency’s system and members of the Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13), long designated as a transnational criminal organization by the U.S. government. Last year ICE removed nearly 6,000 gangbangers from the country, including 1,332 MS-13 members, according to agency figures. It marked a 24% increase from the previous year.

    Local governments, like those throughout Maryland, that offer illegal immigrants sanctuary make the task more difficult. The suspects in this case should have been turned over to federal authorities long ago, but like a growing number of municipalities, Baltimore County offers illegal aliens sanctuary. Back in 2017 Baltimore County Executive Kevin Kamenetz issued an order prohibiting county law enforcement officers from asking suspects about immigration status or cooperating with federal agents to deport illegal immigrants who commit local crimes. Only three Maryland counties cooperate with ICE and Democrats are trying to pass broad legislation to make the entire state an official sanctuary. Along with the District of Columbia, Maryland is one of 12 states that offer illegal immigrants driver’s licenses, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. The others are California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, Vermont and Washington.
    And now Oregon, despite voters overwhelmingly defeating it at the polls.

    Funny that you should say that I troll when it is you seeking the yellow journalism award.
