The illegals must prove that they were here since Jan. 1, 2010, which is a challenge since most have avoided setting up accounts and are paid under the table so there are limited employee records.   Continue reading “Illegal Aliens Search to Find Ways to Prove Residency”

For the first time, more immigrants illegally crossing the southern border of the United States came from countries other than Mexico. Central Americans from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras accounted for 239,229 of the FY 2014 apprehensions while the number of Mexican nationals being apprehended during the year was 229,178.

The numbers reflect a continuing change in the demographics of illegal immigrants according to a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) report obtained by Breitbart Texas. The apprehension of Mexican nationals actually fell by fourteen percent compared to FY 2013. However, the apprehension of what DHS refers to as OTMs (Other Than Mexicans) rose by sixty-eight percent. The OTM apprehensions were predominately from Central America.   Continue reading “More Illegal Aliens from Other Nations Crossing Southern Border than Mexicans”

AUSTIN, Texas — After Sony Pictures Entertainment cancelled the release of their movie The Interview, Alamo Drafthouse Cinema had announced plans to swap the film with a free showing of Team America: World Police, released by Paramount Pictures in 2004, but now Paramount is ordering the theater not to show that film either.

Both films are comedies that pit American characters facing off against a satirical portrayal of a North Korean leader. The Interview features Seth Rogen and James Franco as two characters who are hired to assassinate current North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. Team America, co-written by South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, had singing marionette characters representing an American anti-terrorism task force fighting Kim Jong Il, Kim Jong Un’s now-deceased father. The North Korean government had expressed outrage at both films, and had sought — unsuccessfully — to have Team America banned in other countries.   Continue reading “Paramount Orders Texas Theater Not to Show ‘Team America”

Some comments from Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), made during a radio interview this week, seem to make it appear as though he supports President Barack Obama’s move to open relations again with Cuba.

“The 50-year embargo just hasn’t worked,” Paul said in an interview on with Tom Roten of News Talk 800 WVHU in Huntington, West Virginia. “If the goal is regime change, it sure doesn’t seem to be working, and probably, it punishes the people more than the regime because the regime can blame the embargo for hardship.   Continue reading “Rand Paul: Let’s ‘Co-Opt Cuba,’ Force Open Elections With The Power Of Trade”
