Also at Facebook from Governor Jan Brewer:
I toured the federal detention facility yesterday in Nogales where 1,200 unaccompanied illegal alien children are being held. There are children from all over the world — including Central America, China and India. (emphasis CAJ)
The feds need to STOP encouraging this illegal immigration and STOP abandoning these children in our state! We need our borders secure!…

Welcome to the Border Crisis, Mr. Congressman
Members of Congress are heading to Texas to visit border area detention facilities.

…Marine Corps Gen. John Kelly, commander of U.S. Southern Command, has asked Congress this year for more money, drones and ships for his mission – a request unlikely to be met. Since October, an influx of nearly 100,000 migrants has made the dangerous journey north from Latin America to the United States border. Most are children, and three-quarters of the unaccompanied minors have traveled thousands of miles from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras.
“In comparison to other global threats, the near collapse of societies in the hemisphere with the associated drug and [undocumented immigrant] flow are frequently viewed to be of low importance,” Kelly told Defense One. “Many argue these threats are not existential and do not challenge our national security. I disagree.”…
ISIS could use the Mexican border to gain access into the U.S.
…Andrew J. Ireland of WND said that former Defense Department analyst Michael Maloof, who is also a senior staff writer for WND and an expert on Middle East affairs said that the danger is real and if the border is not closed, American cities could become targets.
Maloof told Ireland, “ISIS may be working to infiltrate the U.S. with the aid of transnational drug cartels. MS-13, the notorious Mexican gang cartel would most likely be a partner with ISIS.”…
Opinion, Milwaukee-Wisconsin Journal Sentinel: When Obama does it, does that make it legal?
President Barack Obama, whose power abuses have played a role in the imperilment of tens of thousands of children and earned him slaps by the Supreme Court and the threat of a suit by House Republicans, has promised more of the same. If Congress doesn’t give him what he wants on immigration reform, he said he is going to change things himself. What that could well mean is unilaterally instituting a broad amnesty program of his aides’ devising.
It’s the kind of performance you would more likely expect on a “Saturday Night Live” stage than in the Rose Garden. There he nevertheless was, telling us “America cannot wait forever for them to act.” By “them” he meant House Republicans, by “act” he meant passage of sweeping legislation that meets his approval and by “forever” he meant passage is unlikely this year.
While no one can say for sure all that comes next, a New York Times story says the administration may give “work permits and protection from deportation to millions of immigrants now in the country.” Except that it would be much further reaching, this move could render something akin to the two-year, renewable, constitutionally questionable amnesty already granted by Obama in 2012 to more than a half million immigrant youths who came here illegally as children…
…”When a president does it, that means it is not illegal,” Nixon once said. Whoever thought there would come a day when so many liberals echoed the sentiment?
If you haven’t been paying attention to what’s been going on in Murrieta, California, you need to know that what’s about to go down is bigger than the Cliven Bundy vs. the fed showdown. It’s bigger than pretty much any federal government vs. American citizen showdown fight we’ve seen since Barack Obama took office.
In short, Barack Obama’s federal government is about to clash with the town of Murrieta head on. And if reports are correct, Obama’s fed will show up with armed riot style federal agents aimed at forcing Americans out of the way. These militant federal forces have an agenda to assist in the invasion of the United States territory, and they are not going to let American citizens stand in their way…
…Jeremy Oliver, a resident of Temecula, California–a town that neighbors Murrieta–told Breitbart Texas that local police officers warned the protesters that “it’s going to get ugly.”
Oliver said, “The feds are pissed that they haven’t been able to use this facility. Officers out there warned people that federal agents will be in Murrieta on Monday–they are going to get the next bus through no matter what. Riot gear and shields will be used to push the crowd back.”
John Henry, a Murrieta resident since 1991, was told the same thing by local officers….

Meanwhile, Homeland Security Secretary Won’t Say If Illegal Children Will Be Deported (video)
“Meet the Press” host David Gregory had a simple question for Department of Homeland Secretary Jeh Johnson: Do the children flooding the U.S. border need to be deported? What followed was a testy exchange between Gregory and Johnson. “I’m trying to get an answer,” Gregory said at one point. He eventually moved on, but not without first pinning Johnson for issuing a “very careful” response.

So, the answer to David Gregory’s question is, no. Few or none is likely to be deported.
U.S. Taxpayers Shelling Out $252 A Day On Each Illegal Alien Youth In Custody…
52,193 in custody X $252 = $13,152,636 per day.

Tweeter @Ringo6 reminds us of the time when it was important for children to go back to their home country, regardless of how evil the regime leading it was…
