Thread: Obama Threatens Consequences If Law Enforcement Officers Don’t Enforce Amnesty

President Barack Obama used a TV interview to describe law enforcement officials as soldiers under his direct command, and he threatened to punish law enforcement officials who try to ignore his November policy barring the enforcement immigration law against millions of illegals.

“In the U.S. military, when you get an order, you’re expected to follow it,” said Obama, who is legally the commander in chief of the U.S. military. ”It doesn’t mean that everybody follows the order. If they don’t, they’ve got a problem,” he said during his Wednesday interview that aired on MSNBC and the Telemundo Spanish-language network.

“The bottom line is, is that if somebody is working for [U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement] and there is a policy and they don’t follow the policy, there are going to be consequences,” Obama said.

Obama’s threat followed complaints from the Spanish-speaking audience members about officers who try to enforce the nation’s immigration laws.

Obama doesn’t want protests from Latinos or enforcement by U.S. officials.

His Nov. 20 Oval Office amnesty includes a policy directive to immigration officers directing them to stop repatriating illegals, unless the illegals have recently crossed the border, or have have been convicted of a major crime. ”For people who’ve been living here for a long time, they are no longer prioritized for enforcement and deportation,” Obama told the audience.

Recent data shows that Obama is successfully reducing the repatriation of illegals who have been living in the United States for some years.

In 2012, his agencies were repatriating roughly 30,000 illegals per month, out a population of roughly 12 million. But that number fell to roughly 20,000 per month in 2014, and down to 11,000 in January 2015, according to a calculation by the Center for Immigration Studies.

At the record low rate of 10,000 repatriations per month, it will take 100 years for Obama’s administration to comply with federal law, assuming the federal government also ends all other incentives — such as workplace authorization rules — that encourage the return home of the 12 million illegal immigrants.

Obama defended his costly directive by saying he’s focusing law enforcement resources on high-priority threats. ”We’re focused on criminals and gang members who are a threat to our community, and we’re focused on the border and making sure the people who’ve just come,” he said.

Immigration officers “are instructed to focus on criminals and people who have just crossed the border,” Obama said. So “if you’ve been here for a long time and if you qualify, generally, then during this period, even with legal uncertainty, they should be in a good place.”

The cost of Obama’s “prioritization” project is likely huge. Each household of low-skill workers — whether native-born of legal immigrants — costs Americans taxpayers roughly $50,000 per year, in various transfer payments, such as IRS rebates, ant-poverty programs, health-care programs and K-12 education costs, according to the Heritage Foundation.

Obama also acknowledged that his “prioritization” argument was pushed only after he decided to stop enforcing immigration law. ”We recognize we’re not going to deport 11 million people. And so why we would want to allocate resources in a wasteful way — that doesn’t make sense,” he said.

But he’s also redirecting federal resources from enforcement to give get-out-of-jail residency cards to illegal immigrants. The cards will allow at least 5 million illegals to compete for jobs, get IRS anti-poverty payments, get Social Security Numbers and also get on a fast-track process to citizenship and full access to federal support programs.

“The head of the Department of Homeland Security, Jeh Johnson, he is absolutely committed to this new prioritization,” Obama said. “More importantly, I, the president of the United States, am absolutely committed to this new prioritization.”

Not a dime, Republicans, not a dime. Hold the line. Stand your ground.

Obama's statements are outrageous. Impeachable if anyone wanted to go that route. This is a treason, colluding with foreign persons to breach our law, violate our separation of powers, dereliction of duty by refusing to enforce the very immigration laws that are in place to protect the national security of the United States. This is a "welcome" to any terrorist, foreign invader, enemy of our nation to enter free as a bird and if already here, remain to do their deeds against US with no threat of being apprehended and removed.

I hope Mitch McConnell is happy with himself knowing that he has just submitted to the work of traitors colluding with the enemy.

America's federal employees and citizens are under no legal requirement to follow memos from Obama or his minions!

Correct. Their obligation is to abide the laws of the United States, and for DHS that specifically encompasses US immigration, US labor and US civil rights laws. Obama is not a King, and no federal employee is subject to his Edicts that are subverting our laws. Yes, these acts of not only failing to enforce US immigration law but openly refusing to enforce US immigration law are acts of subversion, which is a form of sedition and a federal crime, and is treason because it involves favors, money and conveyance of power to foreign persons in our country in violation of US law.

Not a dime, Republicans, not a dime. Hold the line. Stand your ground.

What is Mr. Obama implying? Imprisoning law abiding Americans? Warring attacks upon Americans? Martial law? What are Americans going to do about it today? Pretty damned sure that your republican party is going to fund his unlawful amnesties, so if you think it will get better, look out for next years edicts! America, we cannot wait for 2016, that is folly!
