    CBS - ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS BEING APPOINTED TO CITY COUNCILS ACROSS AMERICA.

    Still THINK TPP INST GOING TO GIVE AMNESTY TO ILLEGALS TO VOTE FOR REPRESENTATIVE TO FURTHER INCREMENTALLY IMPLEMENT AGENDA 21?

    The Term "WAKE UP" has been taken over, but "STOP SLEEPING" is probably a more correct term for what IS HAPPENING.



    But just keep ignoring it and go back to posting about Crooked Individuals, Dead Animals, and whatever other posts that are so important I cant think of right now. I am sure this wont be a problem for US ALL IN THE NEAR FUTURE.

    ON TURBO - NOW ITS VOTES ON CITY COUNCILS!

    LA Times -

    In a first for California, immigrants here illegally get seats in city government


    By Matt Hamilton and Ruben Vives contact the reporters




    In a move likely to heighten debate about illegal immigration, a Huntington Park city councilman said Monday he will appoint two immigrants in the U.S. illegally to become commissioners on city advisory boards.
    The move is an effort to give people here illegally a voice in government in a part of Los Angeles County that has long drawn immigrants from Latin America.
    Several years ago, a neighboring city, Maywood, declared itself a "sanctuary city" for immigrants in the country illegally, generating national attention.

    Jhonny Pineda, a councilman in the city in southeast Los Angeles County, said he will appoint Francisco Medina to the health and education commission and Julian Zatarain to the parks and recreation commission.
    Commissioners typically receive a monthly stipend of $75, but neither of the appointees will be compensated, Pineda told The Times.
    “If we want to share the same vision of Huntington Park, we want to bring everyone to the table,” Pineda said. “These are well-qualified kids. They have been giving a lot without expecting anything in return.”
    Medina graduated from Cal State Dominguez Hills and organized campaign events during Los Angeles City Councilman Gil Cedillo’s 2013 election.
    Zatarain arrived in the U.S. in 2007 and lived for two years in South L.A. before moving to Huntington Park, Pineda said.
    After graduating first in his class from Huntington Park High School, Zatarain enrolled in Santa Monica Community College, Pineda said. One day Zatarain hopes to obtain a law degree, Pineda said. Like Medina, he has been active in his community by organizing immigration workshops and blood drives.
    Immigrants in the country illegally are not excluded by law from serving on a commission, which serves solely as advisers to the city council, Pineda said.

    • @anigbrowl - they may be paying sales taxes, but they should have had the opportunity to do so if they broke the law by coming here illegally.

    City rules require commissioners to be residents of Huntington Park; however, the city council can allow up to two commissioners to be non-residents.
    Both candidates must successfully complete Live Scan background checks before they are sworn into their posts.
    Ric Loya, a former Huntington Park mayor, said he has no problem with the appointment.
    Asked if he's worried about public perception regarding the appointment of two immigrants in the U.S. illegally:
    "Donald Trump will have a field day with something like this," he said. "You're going to get people like Trump who are going to be mad, but on the other hand a lot of people who came here legally or illegally, they're going to say this is great."
    "Everybody can be involved in government, as long as it's done legally," he said. "I don't have a problem with it."

    I agree that this, in principle is wrong, but trust me being on these commissions is mostly a thankless task. You sit through one boring meeting after another. What is critical is the POLICY that is prevailing. If the political landscape is basically liberal it doesn't matter too much who is on the committees. They are pretty much interchangeable. The danger is when a government starts seeking out a particular policy that is directed towards benefiting a certain population---and they tailor it to illegals.

    What I see around here, in one of the most liberal regions of the US, is that the governments are promoting "equity" or "diversity" or "justice" policies and the illegals naturally get to benefit from that. Or they form a "task force." Or, worse, a paid "policy advisor" who is only a few documents removed from being an alien. This is when it really gets bad.

    A response from the People from this Community, TO their Town Council. I think the Contracts have already been signed, so OUR Opinions DON'T REALLY MATTER.
    The High Density Housing has already been started to HOUSE THE ILLEGALS. As this CONTINUES TO GROW(AGENDA 21) WE THE PEOPLE ARE NOT GOING TO ACCEPT THIS. Ever wonder why OUR POLICE(WE PAY FOR) ARE BEING MILITARIZED? The OATH KEEPERS have been Categorized as a "Terrorist Group" Think About That For A Minute.

    Mayor Karina Macias: Illegal Resident in Huntington Park?



    Karin Macias, Mayor of Huntington Park?

    New reports indicate given to this writer argue that Mayor Karina Macias of Huntington Park is not a legal resident of the ciyt -- although she does live in the country legally.

    Linda Caraballo announced to the city council and audience August 17th that Macias did not live in HP.

    From my report initial report on Townhall.com:

    Linda Caraballo rolled out allegations against the councilmembers, including statements (and she provided me the evidence) that Mayor Macias does not live in Huntington Park, but Walnut Park: “I drove you home. I know where you live,” she chastised. Then she outlined the pay-for-play “political nepotism” eating up the council’s diminished integrity.

    Other reports from residents in the city suggest that Macias lives in Walnut Park.

    The previous city clerk, Rosanna Ramirez, sent a letter to Macias on December 13 2012, stating that she was ineligible to run for mayor:

    "Dear Ms. Macias:

    This office has reviewed the nomination papers you submitted to become a candidate to Huntington Park City Council. As you are aware, to become a candidate for public office in Huntington Park, you must be a registered voter. . .

    In the course of verifying your eligibility to be a candidate for office in the City of Huntington Park, your voter registration was reviewed by the Los Angeles County Registrar's Office. The Registrar's Office reported that your current voter registration address is located outside the City boundaries in an unincorporated area of Los Angeles County. As such, you are not an eligible voter within the City at this time and cannot qualify to be a Candidate for the City Council.

    Huntington Park resident Betty Retama has lived in the city for the greater part of her life, and she remembered City Clerk Ramirez serving in the city for over forty years. She was then terminated for no apparent reason.

    Macias did not answer phone calls. No responses have returned from the city clerk's office regarding Macias' current residential address.

    As Goes Huntington Park, So Goes the Nation?

    Arthur Schaper |
    Aug 18, 2015






    Following Huntington Park, CA (or as critics deride, Little TJ or Illegal Alien Park) decision to appoint two illegal aliens to two city commissions, Southern California Public Radio commented: “As Huntington Park goes, does Southern California?”
    One could argue “goes the United States?” The troubling trends of this Southeast LA County suburb, 97% Latino with more than half of the residents foreign-born (if not illegal), are not just the focal point for demographic changes in California (or even the country), but the meeting point over a larger federal fight: are we a nation of laws or men? Does the rule of law matter anymore, and to what extent has municipal malfeasance engendered state and even national political dysfunction? Will fights at the local level restore the rule of law and limited governance once again?

    Yesterday evening (Monday, Aug. 17), I attended my first city council meeting outside of Torrance, CA. I have witnessed fireworks and confrontation in the relatively calm and content “Balanced City,” but last night the crowd exploded from the volatile mixture of supporters and vocal opponents to the appointment of two illegal aliens to city commissions. Huntington Park, CA, which bills itself as “The City of Perfect Balance” demonstrated how unbalanced local government has become in Southern California, and its foray into federal immigration policy is turning heads.

    Protesters had their signs up ready to take down the city council: “Recall Pineda!” “Wake Up City Council!” “Appointment Legal Citizens!”

    We the People Rising, a diverse activist group opposed to illegal immigration, showed up in full force, including members from Upland and Apple Valley as well as former HP resident. Another group, America First Latinos, propped up their signs: “Get Back in Line – Come in Legally!” and “All Lives Matter.”

    The council chambers had room for maybe 100, but judging from the growing number of visitors, plus five Huntington Park, CA police officers, only those who showed up early would have a chance.

    The police officers read off the code of conduct, reminding the audience to avoid catcalls, booing and cheering, or they would be removed. Most of the audience gleefully ignored the directives, and the police could do little about it.

    One local activist, Alex Reynoso, explained to me before the meeting began that he and a small group had been fighting hard against the corrupt council members and mayor since their election earlier this year. Aside from Councilmember Valentin Amezquita, the council approved the appointment of two illegal aliens.

    Reynosa explained the council’s shenanigans to discourage or prevent public commentary. For nearly 30 minutes, presenters from different interest groups, including representatives from State Senator Ricardo Lara’s office (the senator who pushed taxpayer funded health insurance for illegal aliens). Finally, public comment ensued. Despite the numerous request cards submitted, Mayor Karina Macias was clearly shuffling out the negative ones and putting them aside.

    A few residents, some who announced themselves as undocumented, praised the council’s decision. Their speeches gave off an affected ring, as though someone else had written their statements. A few other supporters, some from HP as well as elsewhere, called Jhonny Pineda, the main instigator in this conflict, brave and bold for his decision.

    Before I spoke, Council member Amezquita addressed the whole council. Calm yet determined, he reminded the council that he voted against the appointments because of the negative press that would follow (Boy, did it!). During a short recess, Amezquita told me that he supported much of Donald Trump’s immigration plans. Later in the evening, a protester shouted at the council: “God bless Donald Trump. And You’re Fired!”’

    I addressed the council about their egregious insult to all legal residents, including their “piecemeal, de facto amnesty” (read my full comments here). Shirley Husar, the leader of Urban Game Changers California, excoriated the council for putting aside the needs of legal residents who need jobs, and instead promoted two illegals to city posts. Several members of We the People Rising condemned the city for ignoring the many unemployed and capable legal residents in the city. One woman read a litany of federal and state laws which the council had violated. Raul Rodriguez of “America First Latinos” gave the city council resignation papers and “You’re Fired!” slips.

    Legal immigrants in the city blasted the council for enabling illegal immigration. Francisco Rivera, an immigrant who has lived in Huntington Park for 30 years, denounced the council appointments. Nick Ioannidis, a Greek immigrant and 45-year resident, recounted the routine harassment he has endured from illegal aliens openly residing in the city. Before he spoke to the council, he had shared with me the destruction done to his property as well as the threats and taunting: “This is Mexico! Get out of here!” one of them had told him. Now immigrants are getting attacked? Sandra Orozo, a southeast political activist, shamed them for making her wait (she was one of the first attendees to submit a card), then told about her parents (who came legally) and how they fought for this country. Then she told the audience that the city attorney is under investigation, too.

    More raucous commentary exposed festering problems in Huntington Park. One resident complained that he was paying $2,000 more in property taxes than residents in Walnut Park, CA. Why? Another resident, Reynoso, explained: the city faces a $350 million pension liability, and yet the councilmembers are taking inmucho dinero for their own pensions. The city has hired two city managers. Why?

    Linda Caraballo rolled out allegations against the councilmembers, including statements (and she provided me the evidence) that Mayor Macias does not live in Huntington Park, but Walnut Park: “I drove you home. I know where you live,” she chastised. Then she outlined the pay-for-play “political nepotism” eating up the council’s diminished integrity.

    Financial mismanagement, voter fraud, corrupt city council officials, investigations into city officials, and now pandering to illegal aliens: Huntington Park is turning into Bell Part Two. This cannot be the future of Southern California or the country.
