(CNSNews.com) - "I don't care what the polls show. We know that they don't work," Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) told a news conference on Tuesday.

While predicting the outcome of various races, Reid said an illegal alien friend of his is "more of a Nevadan" than the Republican U.S. senator from that state.

"I know Nevada as well as I know any place in the world or any -- and that's an understatement," Reid said. "Trump is going to lose Nevada and (Sen.) Joe Heck deservedly is going to lose the Senate race because of his being a pawn for Donald Trump."

Reid mentioned Astrid Silva from Las Vegas, whom he described as the "face of the DREAMers." The young woman became a pen-pal of Reid's, and her immigration advocacy helped her land a speaking slot at the Democratic National Convention in July.

Reid told reporters, "She came across the river, the Rio Grande, with her rosary beads, a little doll in her arms, with her mom. She has only known Nevada as her home. And I said there and I believe it. She's more of a Nevadan by far than Heck, who moved there somewhat late in life."

Heck's official biography says he was born in New York, raised in Pennsylvania, and moved to Southern Nevada in 1992, 24 years ago.

Press reports said Silva, now 28, crossed into the U.S. from Mexico when she was four years old -- 24 years ago.

Ad Nauseam....

Well not that difficult to cross the bone dry Rio Grande!

No different then the Sahara desert!

Defamation, character attacks and libel is their best shot now?

This shows that Reid is in the pockets of the drug cartels. He doesn't have any concern for American taxpayers, American workers, or American citizens. He wants to keep those drug cartel payments rolling in for his support of illegal immigration and open borders. There are 75 million Americans who qualify for Medicaid, the poorest of the poor, the most struggling of the struggling, the most unemployed of the unemployed and most underemployed of the underemployed, of all races and ethnicity.

How many American Citizens does Reid "pen pal" with??!!

Since federal law is so broad-----from the time of George Washington they have been warning about foreign influence----I am seeing an overlapping of laws that should prevent illegal immigration. And actually prevent anyone who advocates any policy that suspends federal law.

I looked at the Commerce Clause in Article 1, Section 8. The federal government regulates commerce with foreign nations. What exactly do you call it when people enter the US illegally, engage in black market economic activities, and then send a lot of that money out of the country, while skipping out on US taxes? I would call it FOREIGN COMMERCE. The states are not allowed to regulate that. Only Congress.

Then there is the Treaty Clause of Sec. 10. Again states cannot enter into any treaties with foreign countries. So what do you call it when they start laying out special rules for citizens from certain countries? It sure looks like a treaty that goes past what the federal government wants, which on the contrary is to highly regulate foreigners coming in to the US. What gives States the right to set a different standard?

Then there are the lobbying laws in other federal acts. These were to prevent foreigners from seeking to influence our officials---unless they make known the details of what they want, who is paying them, and who they represent. This is just fair play under Diplomatic Protocol.

Moreover, since foreigners are doing these things surreptitiously----and avoiding fair payment----there is an obstruction of governmental administration via economic interference taking place. This is part of the gist of one of our state laws against interfering with governmental administration:

(in part) 1)A person commits the crime of obstructing governmental or judicial administration if the person intentionally obstructs, impairs or hinders the administration of law or other governmental or judicial function by means of intimidation, force, physical or economic interference or obstacle.

Since it is generally known that these things are taking place, these activities are a conspiracy to subvert federal standards.
