With Judge Susan Bolton blocking some key provisions (until a full hearing is held) of the Arizona illegal alien law (William A. Jacobson has the best analysis), she put the ball squarely in the federal governments court to actually perform their duties in full. If they want to argue supremacy, then they have to do […]

Hey, I’m just wondering: shouldn’t they kind be, you know, working on Thursday? As a judge weighs whether to halt Arizona’s controversial immigration law, hundreds of Los Angeles union members and activists are planning a bus caravan to Phoenix on Thursday — the day the law is set to take effect. More than 550 people […]

Yes, just two days away from Arizona implementing its “controversial” illegal immigration law. There is some good news, as reported by Reuters on Sunday, though they put a wildly humorous liberal spin on it: Migrants sell up and flee Arizona ahead of crackdown A few paces up the street, her undocumented Mexican neighbour Wendi Villasenor […]

Some food for thought on this Monday morning from the Wall Street Journal There is a widespread perception of a strong link between immigrants and crime.

All right, that is not what she actually said, but, hey, I can paraphrase, can’t I? A federal judge pushed back Thursday against a contention by the Obama Justice Department that a tough new Arizona immigration law set to take effect next week would cause “irreparable harm” and intrude into federal immigration enforcement. “Why can’t […]

When it comes to illegals, Liberals are just getting truly silly. Redding.com picks up the story of one Gauldry Almonte-Hernandez, recounting how he made it all the way to mountains of Trinity County, California, perhaps after spending some time at the zoo and doing all sorts of touristy things, found himself at a marijuana camp, […]

Once again, a media outlet builds a cute little strawman argument regarding the illegal immigration debate. They know they do not have a leg to stand on, and it would not be particularly popular, if they tried their real argument, namely, that they are in favor of saying “screw the law, we want new voters.” […]

The Times gives it the old liberal try in linking legitimate concerned groups with a kook fringe (leftist) group, attempting to make them all look bad: Militia With Neo-Nazi Ties Patrols Arizona Desert Minutemen groups, a surge in Border Patrol agents and a tough new immigration law are not enough for a reputed neo-Nazi who […]

Good news? Bad news? It’s good for the moment A federal judge in Phoenix didn’t rule on whether to block Arizona’s new immigration law Thursday after two hours of testimony in the first major hearing in one of seven challenges to the strict crackdown. The Phoenix police officer who filed the lawsuit could be fired […]
