Dozen Injured By Rampaging Migrant Gang In German Town

At least 12 people were injured, many hospitalized, when a gang of migrant teenagers embarked on a violent rampage in the center of Amberg, Germany.

The attackers, young men from Syria, Afghanistan, and Iran, began viciously assaulting and harassing pedestrians and arriving travelers near the Amberg train station, even throwing one man down a flight of stairs, according to eyewitnesses.

Their first victim, a 13-year-old boy, was kicked in the stomach before they began calling a 17-year-old girl a “hooker” and beating her companions when they intervened.

“Uninvolved people, including a father with his 5-year-old daughter, tried to escape, but were caught up, thrown to the ground, beaten and kicked,” PI News reports.

Another victim, 17, told Bild, “They cursed one of us as ‘n*gger’ and struck immediately. We wanted to run away, but they caught us at the traffic light. There were at least six people. Three of my friends were beaten. I was beaten down and kicked.”

Four suspects who were “already known to police” have been arrested.

Mayor Michael Cerny, who has previously expressed his gratitude to groups orchestrating placement of ‘refugees’ in Amberg, delivered a brief statement on the attack, effectively warning constituents against allowing it to taint their view of ‘asylum seekers.’

“Of course, it should not be generalized, but on the whole these idiots have done a disservice to the peaceful and dedicated asylum seekers,” Cerny wrote on Facebook.

Dem Rep. Brown: ‘We’re Not Going to Move’ on Wall Unless It’s Part of Comprehensive Reform

By Ian Hanchett

On Tuesday’s broadcast of “CNN Right Now,” Representative Anthony Brown (D-MD) said the border wall funding issue should be moved to February, and declared that there will not be movement on a border wall “unless it’s part of a comprehensive immigration reform.”

Brown stated, “[W]hat we’re suggesting is, we have a controversial issue around the president’s border wall, which we reject. Let’s isolate that issue. Let’s move it to February 8, give us some breathing room, so we can open up the rest of government.”

He later added, “Well, we’re not going to move on [a] border wall unless it’s part of a comprehensive immigration reform.”

UK Deploys Ships to English Channel Over Migrant Crisis

Capture

According to the UK’s home secretary, while saving the lives of migrants is important, protecting the nation’s borders is important, too.

The UK Border Force had to re-deploy two of its largest ships, known as “cutters,” from overseas missions to the English Channel, after some 100 migrants attempted to cross the strait on dinghies.

I have made a decision today to redeploy two of the Border Force’s largest vessels, known as cutters, from abroad back to the UK, to south-east England, and they will be joining a cutter that is already there and two other coastal patrol vessels,” Home Secretary Sajid Javid said.

In the most recent incident, 12 migrants, including a 10-year-old child, were detained on the UK’s Kent beach Monday.

According to a Home Office spokesperson, the migrants presented themselves as Iranian nationals.

“They all received a medical assessment and have now been transferred to immigration officials for interview,” the spokesperson said.

“It’s both about protecting human life but also about protecting our borders,” Javid said regarding his decision. “This will help both with the human side of this situation but also to better protect our borders.”

In a poorly concealed attempt to paint the justification for the ships’ relocation as a humanitarian one, Javid pointed out that “we must remember that this is one of the most treacherous stretches of water that there is, 21 miles with people taking grave risk, really putting their lives into their own hands by taking this journey.”

However, under a humanitarian façade, a more pragmatic approach is clearly visible.

Javid disclosed that, besides the ships’ deployment, the UK Home Office will also step up its efforts to return detained migrants to France.

“We will do everything we can to make sure [illegal border crossing] is not a success, in the sense that I don’t want people to think that if they leave a safe country like France, they can get to Britain and then just get to stay,” he said.

British cooperation with French authorities is improving, with around 40 percent of attempted crossings disrupted, and the two countries working together “both directly but also in more covert ways,” according to Javid.

According to the home secretary, some 230 migrants attempted to cross the Channel in December, with “just under half” being disrupted by French authorities before taking to the seas.

Democrats’ plan to end shutdown? Force Trump to give up on border wall, apparently

See the source image

Once Democrats take over the House on January 3, they are planning to pass a government funding bill without any money for the border wall. President Donald Trump shows no sign of caving as shutdown continues, however.

As the impasse between Trump and the Democrats shut down parts of the federal government and forced some 800,000 workers to stay home or work without pay, the incoming Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-California) vowed the president would never get his wall.

Once Pelosi returns from her vacation in Hawaii and gets sworn in, she intends to have the House approve a bill that would fund the Department of Homeland Security until February and not include a penny for the border wall, the New York Times reported citing congressional staff.

Even if the Republican-majority Senate agrees to this – which the leadership has shown no sign of wanting to do – the question will come up again in just a few weeks. Democrats mean to use this to push for broader immigration reform and demonstrate they are the responsible party, according to the Times.

“We’ve got to really learn how to play jujitsu with the president and figure out how to take the wall issue and show the American people that we are the modern party who will actually secure the border and also be for a compassionate immigration system that recognizes the benefits of immigration and diversity,” Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio), said in an interview Monday.

Unwilling or unable to pick one objection to Trump’s border wall proposal, they have panned it as “immoral, ineffective and expensive” as well as “fifth-century technology.”

Trump, who campaigned on building a “big, beautiful wall” on the border with Mexico, showed no sign of backing down, however. While Democrats went on vacation, he stayed at the White House and tweeted up a storm, only taking a break for a surprise trip to Iraq and Germany to visit US troops overseas.

In one of the tweets on Monday, Trump reminded Democrats they have voted in favor of a border barrier twice before.

“You voted yes in 2006 and 2013. One more yes, but with me in office,” he wrote. “I’ll get it built, and Fast!”

He also mocked the Democrats’ claim that walls are old technology, quipping “but so is the wheel.”

Trump and the Democrats have clashed over border funding before, resulting in a brief government shutdown in January 2018. At the time, Trump proposed a sweeping amnesty for children brought into the US illegally and their relatives in return for wall funding and immigration reforms. Democrats rejected it, however, and eventually prevailed in getting an omnibus spending bill that ignored immigration altogether, setting the stage for the December 2018 showdown.
