California will become the first state to pay for some adults living in the country illegally to have full health benefits as the solidly liberal bastion continues to distance itself from President Donald Trump’s administration.
Democrats in the state Legislature reached an agreement Sunday afternoon as part of a broader plan to spend $213 billion of state and federal tax money over the next year. The legislature is expected to approve the deal this week.

The agreement means low-income adults between the ages of 19 and 25 living in California illegally would be eligible for California’s Medicaid program, the joint state and federal health insurance program for the poor and disabled.
CBP agents recently reported an MS-13 gang member used a toddler with chickenpox in an attempt to make a fraudulent migrant family claim.
In a recent tweet Customs and Border protection posted a photo of a very young immigrant child with chickenpox who was part of a fraudulent family unit.
The male who the child was with is not related to the child and has ties to MS-13 gang.
The tweet was posted by the El Centro CBP unit.
One America’s Emily Finn explains how migrant families are using children as a “passport for migration.”
There’s a big beautiful border wall in Arizona, and the illegal immigrants who walk right around it are gladly turning themselves in to Border Patrol agents to begin their new life in the land of opportunity.

“Video of a large group of 134 Central Americans walking around the end of the border wall in Sasabe on Tuesday,” CBP Arizona posted to Twitter Wednesday. “The group immediately surrendered to @CBP #USBP agents. Eight people in the group were hospitalized.”
The night vision footage shows a steady stream of dark spots winding through the sagebrush and around the end of the large barrier, and on to U.S. soil. They’re then given a free ride to an immigration processing center, where they will claim asylum, before they’re released into the country to await a hearing on their case, months or years in the future.
Most don’t bother to show back up for court.
The CBP video illustrates both the effectiveness of a large wall on the border, as well as loopholes in the law that will allow 1 million illegal immigrants into the U.S. in fiscal year 2019 alone, with no way to track those people or ensure their asylum claims are legitimate.
“I tell you what they are doing with those people is the majority of them are being released in the United States hoping that they show up for their court date, and the percentages are very, very low of what does show up,” Art Del Cueto, vice president of the National Border Patrol Council, told One America News.
“Obviously, these people are being apprehended, which sounds great. But what a lot of people are not reporting on or failing to report is these large numbers that are being detained are also being released in the country and that is a huge problem,” he said.
It’s a crisis Trump has used virtually every option available to address, from military intervention to emergency funding to construct a wall. The president most recently threatened to impose tariffs as early as next week on $350 billion in imports from Mexico if leaders there don’t “step up to the plate” to help address the thousands of illegal immigrants moving through the country to the U.S., The Wall Street Journal reports.
Those talks began Wednesday and continued Thursday, as members of the Senate huddled to discuss the strategy.
Sen. Lindsey Graham told Fox News tariffs are no fun, but the crisis at the border is unbearable.
“If tariffs is what it takes to get Mexico to do better on their side of the border, I’m all for tariffs,” he said. “Trump’s not the problem, Mexico’s the problem. Republicans are not the problem, Democrats won’t vote to change the laws.
“Why do we have a million people coming here from Central America? They know that if you read a card claiming asylum, you’re entitled to a hearing. It takes three or four years to get a hearing. We don’t have enough bed space, so we let you go. So all you got to do is claim asylum,” he said.
“I got a bill that says you have to claim asylum in your home country or Mexico. No longer can you claim asylum here, we ship you back if you try to claim asylum on our soil,” Graham continued. “If you bring a small child with you, we can’t send that child back. We’re going to change that law, 90 percent of this will stop.
“But Mexico provides buses to these people,” he said. “President Trump didn’t create this problem, our laws are broken. As long as you can claim asylum in the United States and never be deported after you make the claim they will come forever. We’re on track to have a million people come over this fiscal year. We’ve doubled in 2019 the problem we had in 2018.”
Like Graham, Del Cueto blamed inaction in Congress and Mexico aiding and abetting migrant caravans for fueling the border crisis. The union boss said Trump’s efforts to build a wall are helpful, but it will ultimately take cooperation from Democrats to solve the underlying issues.
“With the funding for the wall, obviously it’s helpful because it can funnel where we want the groups to go, but the big issue is going to be the law itself allows these individuals to come in to the United States and claim asylum and they’re being released,” he said.
“So at this point, even the wall, though very hopeful and very helpful, is not going to be the be-all end-all unless Congress decides to help us with a lot of these laws.”
The leader of an organization who helped facilitate January’s Honduran migrant caravan has been arrested.

Open borders advocates are panicking after the arrest of Irieno Mujihca, the leader of Pueblo Sin Fronteras, a pro-open borders group funded by globalist financier George Soros that has worked to undermine United States immigration policy and sponsor Central American caravans.
Michelle Malkin wrote on Twitter that “Open Borders Inc. enablers,” are in a state of “panic over reported arrest of Pueblo Sin Fronteras leader Irieno Mujihca”, and another open borders advocate.
Malkin quoted Ruben Figueroa, who considers himself a “Defender of Human Rights of Migrants”. Figueroa wrote a panic-stricken tweet, translated from Spanish, #ALERT: The arrest of human rights defenders [who are] pro-migrants, Irineo Mujica and Cristóbal Sánchez, is confirmed.”
Open borders zealots have good reason to be concerned. Big League Politics has reported extensively on Pueblo Sin Fronteras, which translates to People Without Borders, and their connections with the globalist banking system and Soros.
In January, Pueblo Sin Fronteras was instrumental in organizing the Honduran migrant caravan that attempted to illegally cross into the United States. They did so with the help of Soros’s seemingly bottomless checkbook.
George Soros’ money pays a parent group of Pueblo Sin Fronteras, the official organizer of the illegal immigrant Caravan headed to the U.S.-Mexico border. Soros also funds a Pueblo Sin Fronteras spokeswoman’s employer, according to records obtained by Big League Politics courtesy of independent researcher Brian Humphrey.
The group Centro Sin Fronteras, a parent group to caravan organizer Pueblo Sin Fronteras, is reportedly a “mainstay” of the caravan effort. The Centro has received funding from the George Soros-financed National Immigration Forum.
A Pueblo Sin Fronteras spokeswoman and organizer, Viridiana Vidal, is the Nevada state director for America’s Voice, which has been paid consulting fees by the George Soros-funded Immigrant Voters Win PAC. That Soros-funded PAC also pays salaries for America’s Voice’s top executives.
Pueblo Sin Fronteras, despite being an organization that flagrantly and obnoxiously flaunts United States laws, is also allowed to raise money using PayPal.
While there is no surefire way to track the exact funding of the group, it clearly has support with at least good media coverage from media outlets with ties to George Soros. But it is clear who is facilitating the transactions from supporters, and that is PayPal.
Big League Politics informed PayPal about the group hosting a link to a PayPal account accepting donations to support the caravans.
After a series of private messages, and a promised email response that never came, the PayPal account of the group appears to be up and active. Not only that, they created another account for the express written purpose of supporting the caravans.
It should be noted that while PayPal allows Pueblo Sin Fronteras to raise money despite its obvious intent to break PayPal’s rules, specifically that users may not use the service to “violate any law, statute, ordinance or regulation,”PayPal banned Big League Politics reporter Luke Rohlfing from using its service for unknown reasons.
The arrest of Mujica suggests the Trump administration is growing increasingly serious about cracking down on those who sponsor mass illegal immigration.
President Donald Trump‘s threat to put tariffs on Mexico unless they stop aiding the illegal invasion of our southern border appears to already be producing fruit.
Mexican soldiers, armed police and migration officials blocked hundreds of migrants after they crossed the border from Guatemala in a caravan into southern Mexico on Wednesday, and detained dozens of them, a witness from a migrant aid group and an official said.
The Mexican response in the border town of Metapa, which included dozens of soldiers, marked a toughening of the government’s efforts to curb the flow of mainly Central American migrants, said Salva Cruz, a coordinator with Fray Matias de Cordova.
“That many sailors and military police, yes, it’s new,” Cruz said, by WhatsApp, from Metapa, in the southern border state of Chiapas, where the vast majority of migrants from Central America cross into Mexico. […]
Migration officials detained 350 to 400 people, the official said, noting that federal police and agents from the National Guard were present. Mexico’s government recently created a militarized police force called the National Guard made up of soldiers and federal police.
A Texas teacher who landed in hot water after her Tweets about illegal aliens in her school district surfaced.
“Georgia Clark was unanimously voted out of her English teaching job from Carter-Riverside High School in Fort Worth on Tuesday night,” according toDaily Mail.
In a series of Tweets, Clark pleaded with President Donald J. Trump to do something about the illegal alien crisis.
“Mr. President, Fort Worth Independent School District is loaded with illegal students from Mexico,” Clark Tweeted on May 17.
“Mr. President. I do not know what to do. Anything you can do to remove the illegals from Fort Worth would be greatly appreciated,” she said in another Tweet. “Carter-Riverside High School has been taken over by them. Drug dealers are on our campus and nothing was done to them when the drug dogs found the evidence.”
Clark recently deleted her Twitter account. When confronted by the school board, she said she thought her Tweets were private.
“Once the tweets came to light, so, too, did other allegations, and it was my professional judgment that it was in the best interest of the district,” Superintendent Kent P. Scribner reportedly said.
A teacher from Fort Worth, TX has been put on leave and may lose her job after begging and pleading President Donald Trump to do something about the illegal immigrants laying waste to her town.
A Twitter account attributed to Georgia Clark reportedly sent tweets to President Trump begging him to do something about the invasion that she could see happening at Carter-Riverside High School, which is 87.5 percent Hispanic.
“I do not know what to do. Anything you can do to remove the illegals from Fort Worth would be greatly appreciated. My phone number is [XXX-XXX-XXXX] and my cell is [XXX-XXX-XXXX]. Georgia Clark is my real name. Thank you,” the tweet read.
Her alleged pleas to end the lawlessness in Fort Worth will not go unpunished. Clark was promptly put on paid administrative leave with additional consequences pending.
Clark’s attorney said that she will fight the decision.
