    CNN ADVISING ILLEGAL ALIENS TO REFUSE ENTRY TO ICE

    CNN's top story today was advising illegal aliens to refuse entry to ICE, in case anyone missed it:

    What immigrant advocates want you to do if ICE agents come to your door

    The sudden and unexpected deportation of undocumented Mexican immigrant Guadalupe Garcia de Rayos has sparked fears that President Donald Trump is beginning to fulfill his campaign promise to expel 11 million people from the United States.

    US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which deported Garcia de Rayos from Arizona to Mexico on Thursday, contends there was nothing special about her case and that the move does not signify a heightened crackdown on undocumented immigrants. However, immigrant advocates, and even the Mexican government, are skeptical.
    "The case involving Mrs. Garcia de Rayos illustrates a new reality for the Mexican community living in the United States, facing the most severe implementation of immigration control measures," Mexico's Foreign Ministry said in a statement Friday.
    The ministry also warned Mexican citizens living in the United States to "take precautions."


    Immigrant advocates made similar statements and began circulating fliers designed to inform undocumented immigrants of their rights.

    'Know your rights'


    The ACLU circulated English and Spanish fliers on social media instructing people in danger of deportation what to do if ICE agents come to their doors. Among the tips: "If they ask to enter, ask if they have a warrant signed by a judge and if so, ask to see it (through a window or slipped under the door)."

    'Fight your case'


    United We Dream, which says it's the "largest immigrant youth-led organization in the nation," also shared fliers on social media instructing undocumented immigrants how to interact with ICE agents and even fight back.
    "Get a trustworthy attorney & explore all options to fight your case," the flier reads. "If detained, you may be able to get bail -- don't give up hope!"
    Their fliers were made available in English and Spanish, along with Arabic, Chinese and Korean.

    Have a plan


    In the wake of the news, advocates also resurfaced a rights flier and ICE Raids Toollkit previously published by the Immigration Defense Project, which works for legal justice for immigrants in the United States.
    The two-page flier provides detailed advice on what an undocumented person should do if stopped by an ICE agent. Among the tips: "Don't lie or show false documents" and "remain silent."

    After ICE arrests, fear spreads among undocumented immigrants

    By Ray Sanchez, CNN
    Updated 7:56 PM ET, Sat February 11, 2017

    CNN) Across the United States, some unauthorized immigrants are keeping their children home from school. Others have suspended after-school visits to the public library. They have given up coffee shop trips and weekend restaurant dinners with family.

    Some don't answer knocks on their doors. They're taping bedsheets over windows and staying off social media. Nervous parents and their children constantly exchange text messages and phone calls.

    From New York to Los Angeles, a series of immigration arrests this week have unleashed waves of fear and uncertainty across immigrant communities.

    "There are people that I work with who essentially want to go dark," said Cesar Vargas, one of the first immigrants without legal status in New York state to be sworn in as a lawyer.

    "They don't want to be public in any way whatsoever. They spend less time on the street. They go to work and go straight back home. They don't go on Facebook. They put curfews on themselves."

    The fear started to set in after President Donald Trump's inauguration last month, according to advocates. It heightened after Thursday's deportation of an undocumented Arizona mother of two who was making a routine visit with immigration officials. And Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents this week carried out numerous actions in California, Georgia, North and South Carolina, Texas and other states.

    The arrests come amid court battles over Trump's proposed ban on immigrants from seven majority-Muslim nations. The president has also vowed to deport some 3 million undocumented immigrants who have criminal records and to build a wall across the porous US-Mexico border.

    'Missing from school out of fear'

    That Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly said Friday night the United States has not been "rounding anyone up" is of little solace in longtime immigrant enclaves across the nation.

    "There are teachers who told me they had students missing from school out of fear," said Greg Casar, a city council member in Austin, Texas.

    "I was with a constituent, a single mother with kids -- good, hardworking everyday folks -- and she had duct-taped sheets up and down her windows. ICE had come and knocked on her door earlier in the day."

    Trump's orders expand powers of immigration officers

    Casar, the son of Mexican immigrants, spoke on the phone Saturday from a meeting of about 100 teachers who gathered to discuss how talk to children about ICE actions and assure them they're safe at school.

    A series of immigration arrests throughout the United States, such as this one in Los Angeles, have sent waves of fear across mostly immigrant enclaves.

    A series of immigration arrests throughout the United States, such as this one in Los Angeles, have sent waves of fear across mostly immigrant enclaves.

    "Kids ... are clearly traumatized by this," he said. "Young people I've spoken to live in fear that their government is coming for them or coming for their parents. Where do you go?"

    Criminals are targeted

    One ICE operation in the Los Angeles area this week targeted criminals and fugitives. The agency said the majority of those arrested had criminal histories.

    ICE said Friday that about 160 foreign nationals were arrested during the week.

    Of those, 150 had criminal histories, and of the remaining arrests, five had final orders of removal or were previously deported.

    What immigrant advocates want you to do if ICE agents come to your door

    ICE said 95% of those arrested were male. By Saturday, 37 had been deported to Mexico, a Homeland Security official told CNN.
    Supporters of the sweeps say they are surprised that actions enforcing US immigration laws are making the news.
    "President Trump campaigned on the issue of enforcing the nation's laws, and that's exactly what is happening here," said Dave Ray, a spokesman for the Federation for American Immigration Reform, a non-profit that fights for reduced immigration and tighter borders.
    John Torres, a retired deputy director of ICE and longtime immigration agent, said the last time such a spike in enforcement occurred was during the Bush administration, from 2006 to 2008.

    "What's different here is that you have a more robust agency than you had 10 years ago," Torres said. "And the expanded scope of priorities now, coupled with the fact that you have far more jurisdictions that are not cooperating with ICE, is forcing ICE agents to make those arrests out in the community."

    While the Obama administration had clear guidance prioritizing deportation of high-level criminals, an executive order signed by Trump in his first week set up enforcement priorities that could include virtually any undocumented immigrant living in the United States.

    'In major suspense' with Trump

    Many of the largest cities in the country have vowed not to cooperate with federal law enforcement on immigration matters. They are known as "sanctuary" cities, a broad term applied to jurisdictions that have policies limiting cooperation with or involvement in federal immigration enforcement actions.

    Cities, counties and some states have a range of laws and informal policies that qualify as "sanctuary" positions.

    In New York's Staten Island, Vargas has been busy since Trump's inauguration advising members of a growing immigrant community.
    Vargas, a Mexican-born lawyer and immigrant activist, has also been busy checking up in his mother, who is also undocumented. And she checks on him.

    "My mom tells me, 'Don't travel here, don't travel there,'" said Vargas, who has benefited from federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA.

    "I'm still undocumented. She's undocumented. I have DACA but she doesn't. I tell her not to open the door for anyone. Know your rights and give me a call right away."

    Put in place by the Obama administration, the DACA program has helped roughly 750,000 young people -- known as DREAMers -- emerge from the shadows and obtain valid driver's licenses, enroll in college and legally secure jobs.

    Trump has vowed to repeal the program.

    "We're in major suspense with the Trump administration," said Vargas, who was 5 he crossed the border from Tijuana to San Diego.
    "What is he going to do with DACA? The program can be taken away anytime at the discretion of Immigration. They can say, even if he has DACA, we're going to pick him up because he is undocumented."

    Concern for veterans

    Vargas has been working with undocumented veterans who joined the US military with hopes of getting US citizenship.
    Some veterans -- green card holders who served in Iraq and Afghanistan -- did not go through the entire process of becoming citizens. Many returned to the United States with Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome. Some got hooked on illegal drugs and ended up with felony drug convictions.

    They now face deportation.

    Deported US military veterans live in limbo

    "Yes, these people have committed crimes, but these are people who the government was supposed to take care of," Vargas said. "If Donald Trump is so worried about veterans, these are people he should be worried about.
    "
    In Brooklyn, New York, an undocumented immigrant named Antonio -- who asked that his full name not be used -- said it has been an emotional week for his partner and their two children, ages 3 and 8. His partner cries at the many news reports of separated immigrant families.
    "People are not leaving the house to get a cup of coffee, to have dinner or take their children to the library," said Antonio, who came to the United States from Mexico 17 years ago.

    "You don't know when the next roundup will be. You go to work. You come back home."

    He says he is cautious on the street.

    "I'm looking around all the time," he said. "It's not only (ICE) but the police as well. What if they stop you and ask you questions?"
    A construction worker, Antonio said he has paid taxes for years. He was part of a small army of unauthorized immigrants who toiled in the reconstruction efforts in Queens and Staten Island after Superstorm Sandy in 2012.

    "We were among the first to respond during that catastrophe," he said.

    "We helped rebuild homes and the owners still seek us out for work. But some people feel we're taking away (jobs). We take the jobs they don't want. So it's, 'Oh, you helped me rebuild my house but now I don't need you and you should go back to Mexico.'"

    This is just disgusting, terrible. But like a friend of mine said recently, their "resistance" is exposing them for who and what they are, who they're for and who they're against. Americans will be their insides on this one and despise what they see.

    If the I.C.E. agents believe the person the want is in the house or business all they have to do is wait by the door and get on the radio to get a warrant, signed by a judge, sent over, and then they can legally kick the door down if it isn't opened for them.
    NO AMNESTY

    Don't reward the criminal actions of millions of illegal aliens by giving them citizenship.

    So CNN is asking the people who broke our laws to come here to break the law by not cooperating with law enforcement. Interesting.

    Good idea. Our ICE agents can just camp out and lay siege on their house. Just like in war. They will run out of food and water sooner or later. Well food at least. They can have the water company shut off their water.

    Also, the CEO of CNN, Jeff Zucker, who is of Jewish ancestory, needs to see the video I posted here on Baldwin Park in California, where illegal aliens are shouting......death to Jews, death to America, Osama Bin Laden the gringo killer. Maybe that will let CNN see illegals in a clearer light. Being an illegal alien means that they broke our laws and had absolutely no regard for our laws to come here illegally, which makes them CRIMINALS right from the start. Just because these people happen to be minorities isn't a good reason for CNN to blindly support them. There's a big difference between immigrants and illegal aliens who have no regard for your country's laws.
