Italy Passes Tough Immigration Law: ‘The Salvini Decree Is Law; The Good Times (For Migrants) Are Over’

By Chris Menahan

Italy’s Interior Minister Matteo Salvini, the most popular politician in the country, is one step closer to making good on his campaign promise to deport 500,000 illegal migrants.

From Reuters:

The Italian government passed a law that clamps down on asylum rights and boosts funds for police, handing Interior Minister and right-wing League party leader Matteo Salvini his first major legislative win.

The lower house of parliament voted 396 to 99 late on Wednesday to pass the law championed by Salvini, who took office in June in a coalition with the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement.

The new law eliminates humanitarian grounds for granting protection to refugees — asylum that is not tied to political persecution or war. It also funnels millions of euros to law enforcement and anti-mafia administrators.

The new law eliminates humanitarian grounds for granting protection to refugees — asylum that is not tied to political persecution or war. It also funnels millions of euros to law enforcement and anti-mafia administrators.

“I’m willing to host women and children who are escaping from war … But all the others, no,” Salvini said on Thursday, referring to the new legislation. “I don’t want to be seen as an idiot.”

Italy will still award asylum to war refugees or victims of political persecution. But it will no longer hand out “humanitarian” asylum, which was given to those who had “serious reasons” to flee their home country – a category that has often included homosexuals fleeing harsh anti-gay laws in Africa.

More than 20,000 people, or 25 percent of those who sought asylum, got “humanitarian” protection last year, and the tens of thousands of others received it in previous years will now likely lose their legal status when their documents expire.

The League’s lawmakers celebrated the passage of the law on Thursday by unfurling a banner outside the lower house of parliament that read: “The Salvini decree is law; the good times (for migrants) are over.”

The law also allows for migrants to be stripped of their citizenship if they’re convicted of terrorism.

Parliament erupted in cheers after the law was

Il momento in cui il Decreto Sicurezza e Immigrazione è diventato legge!
Dedico questi applausi e questo entusiasmo a tutti voi, Amici, che come me ci avete sempre creduto. Ed è solo l’inizio.😊

“The moment the security and Immigration decree became law!” Salvini tweeted. “I dedicate this applause and this enthusiasm to all of you, my friends, who have always believed in me. And it’s just the beginning.” 

The League’s popularity is exploding:

Largely as a result of his hard line on immigration, the League, after winning some 17 percent in the March election, has doubled its support, rocketing past its 5-Star partner.

The League’s backing is now 34 percent, compared with 25 percent for 5-Star, a Noto Sondaggi poll published this week showed.

Two polls showed similar results:

Salvini also refused to sign onto the suicidal UN migration pact:

Salvini announced that he—like the Swiss—will not support the UN migration pact, which is due to be signed next month in Marrakesh, Morocco.

“We will not go to Marrakesh,” said Salvini to parliament, “I will not sign anything.”

Spain: Pakistani migrant punches female doctor as being treated by her is ‘against his religion’

By Ben Perchiron

A doctor from Linares (Jaén) has received a brutal punch from a young illegal Pakistani because he resisted being treated by a woman. According to what he said on Wednesday before the judge, the reason is because “his religion forbids him.”

According to Carlos Garrido, the victim’s lawyer, the events occurred at two o’ clock in the morning of Monday at the Virgen de Linarejos health center.

The assailant was in the waiting room waiting to be seen when suddenly, “he threw himself to the ground and started screaming”.

A watchman witnessed the scene and helped him up and seated him in a chair. “Nobody understood what was happening to him, the young man indicated that he could communicate in Arabic or Italian,” adds the lawyer.

It was at that moment that the attacker hit a female doctor in the face with a punch that caused her to fall backwards to the ground. Several of the doctor’s colleagues then immobilized the Pakistani man, so as to avoid further violence.

The National Police immediately detained the aggressor. On his appearance before the Court this Wednesday, the defendant has acknowledged the facts, but added that “he does not remember anything”. In relation to the cause that pushed him to hit the victim, he added that “my religion does not allow women to invade my space.”

The victim is currently on leave due not only to her physical injuries, but also the psychological consequences that persist after this type of attack.

The defendant was in Spain illegally and had come from Italy. The coroner does not rule out that he was under the influence of a drug.

The Prosecutor’s Office is asking for five months in prison, a restraining order and compensation of some 600 euros.

The attacker walked free without charges and the police have opened a file to him as well as removed his passport for security reasons.

Vox, a right wing Political Party that is rising in popularity in Spain, has demanded the illegal immigrant be deported.

Vox has also demanded, during its campaign for local elections in Andalucia, that the nationality of every person guilty of sexual abuse or rape be published, as the Socialist Party currently in charge of the province has a policy to hide that information, for obvious reasons.

Pickup Packed With 11 Passengers Crashes After Fleeing Border Patrol

3 dead, 8 injured after high speed chase

A high-speed chase near the U.S.-Mexico border in San Diego County ended with three dead and eight injured after a Chevrolet pickup attempted to flee an enforcement stop, hit a spike strip and rolled into an embankment on Interstate 8, authorities said in a statement.

The pickup was carrying 11 people — 9 of whom were lying unrestrained in the bed — while weaving through traffic and traveling at speeds of more than 100 mph, witnesses said. A male driver and a female passenger were believed to be seated in the cab of the truck, CHP spokesman Officer Travis Garrow said.

Border Patrol agents had attempted to conduct an enforcement stop around 4:30 p.m. but the driver reportedly failed to yield to the Border Patrol’s marked vehicle and fled, authorities said.

Agents deployed a spike strip as the vehicle traveled westbound and the driver lost control, became airborne and rolled down an embankment into a two-lane interstate east of Crestwood Road, authorities said, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.

A California Highway Patrol spokesman told Fox News the agency will release a press release Friday with further information. Border Patrol did not immediately return Fox News’ request for comment.

Three of the occupants were pronounced dead at the scene, while the other eight suffered “major to minor” injuries, authorities said. The injured parties were transported to several local hospitals.

The driver is believed to be a U.S. citizen and is now in U.S. Border Patrol custody while being treated for his injuries, KFMB-TV reported, citing authorities.

None of the occupants’ identities were released. It wasn’t immediately clear whether they were part of the migrant caravan currently awaiting entry at San Ysidro Port of Entry in San Diego. Authorities do not suspect alcohol or drugs were involved in the collision.

The CHP is now handling the investigation.

AT LEAST 5 DEAD AFTER SUV CARRYING ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS CRASHES, SHERIFF SAYS

Thursday’s crash is not the first fatal accident involving U.S. Border Patrol. Another high-speed chase with the agency in June ended when an SUV carrying illegal immigrants crashed, ejecting 12 people — five of whom were killed — near the Texas-Mexico border. That chased also topped 100 mph, and the driver was also believed to be an American citizen.

CNN’s Chris Cuomo Compares Criminal Illegal Aliens to Baby Jesus (VIDEO)

CNN’s Chris Cuomo compared criminal illegal aliens storming the US border to Baby Jesus.

In his closing comments on Wednesday’s broadcast, CNN’s Chris Cuomo compared the criminal illegal aliens’ border troubles to Mary, Joseph… and even BABY JESUS.

For some reason, CNN’s Chris Cuomo thinks that criminal aliens seeking to illegally across the border are LITERALLY Mary / Joseph / BABY JESUS.

Yes. What you just read is a disturbing reality instead of a fantastical joke. The mainstream media and leftist movement against traditional Americana is so deranged that they would compare Jesus Christ to thousands of criminal illegals putting children in danger with dangerous outbursts.

Cuomo made these statements in spite of several biblical passages addressing strong borders and respect for sovereignty. Video producer Sean Campbell pointed out the hypocrisy by providing the following text.

Campbell develops the video content for Jewish journalist and truth teller Laura Loomer, who was recently silenced on Twitter for calling out the Jew hate showcased by Muslim Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota.

Deuteronomy 19:14

“You shall not move your neighbor’s boundary mark, which the ancestors have set, in your inheritance which you will inherit in the land that the LORD your God gives you to possess.”

OR
“Deuteronomy 27:17

‘Cursed is he who moves his neighbor’s boundary mark.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’”

OR

“Isaiah 19:19

In that day there will be an altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to the LORD at its border.”

Furthermore, the point should be made that denying access to asylum on several occasions does not feature you along side JESUS CHRIST in the history books. To do so showcases Cuomo’s lack of understanding in regards to the Biblical text and a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

CNN needs to do a wellness check on Cuomo.

Migrant arrested for planning to poison Italian public water supply

By VOICE OF EUROPE 29 November 2018

A Palestinian migrant was arrested on Wednesday morning for planning to poison a public water supply.

The man, who has an Italian residency permit, was captured in the city of Macomer.

A Palestinian national, the 38-year-old suspect was arrested by the Italian police in the Sardinian town under suspicion of planning to poison the island’s public drinking water supply.

He had been under surveillance for a lengthy period of time until the police moved in to arrest him on Wednesday.

The town, with a population of 10,000, was on lock down by the security services and they swiftly arrested the suspect as he left his home.

A judge granted security forces permission to immediately undertake the urgent operation due to the severity of the risk.

Migrants Report Cash Transactions Between Mexican Officials to Allow Them Access to US Border

Screen Shot 2018-11-29 at 11.39.41 AM

By Randy DeSoto

A number of migrants are alleging that Mexican officials at the U.S. border are charging substantial sums of money to gain access to make asylum claims in the U.S.

The Los Angeles Times reported that Mexicans are overseeing a list, which they are using to decide who is allowed to cross two bridges over the Rio Grande into Brownsville, Texas from Matamoras, Mexico.

Cuban asylum seeker Elvis Gonzalez Rodriguez, 23, said that when he arrived at one of the bridges over the Rio Grande last week, a uniformed Mexican immigration official demanded he pay $1,000 to cross. When Rodriguez refused, the official made him leave.

“There’s a lot of corruption here,” Rodriguez, an electrician from Havana said. “It’s the responsibility of Mexican officials to protect immigrants. I want to come the correct, legal way.”

He wants U.S. officials to help asylum seekers and investigate what’s happening on the bridges.

“They need to help us,” he said. “They need to know about the corruption, how it’s a business to pass here.”

The Times reported that another Cuban asylum seeker said a uniformed Mexican immigration official “demanded $500 to get her across the old bridge after she arrived at Matamoros airport in mid-October.”

She told the paper that other Cubans seeking asylum called her cellphone after crossing the bridge into the U.S. saying the Mexican officials made them pay between $100 and $300 to move to the front of the line.

“They are. I know that’s a fact,” said Michael Seifert, an ACLU border advocacy strategist in Brownsville. “It’s only gotten worse. It’s gotten more expensive. The Cubans are targeted because they have money.”

Seifert said that African immigrants are forced to wait weeks because “they don’t speak enough Spanish to understand the bribe.”

Asylum seekers from Cameroon reported being falsely told by Mexican officials in Matamoros that the U.S. was not accepting more Africans.

Michael Randy, 30, who is from Cameroon, said he was able to speak with U.S. customs officers at the bridge, who assured him the claim was false.

Randy told The Times he fled Cameroon after police shot his younger brother and raped his wife in front of him and burned down the home they shared with their 2- and 3-year-old daughters. He recounted that he was imprisoned and tortured for 77 days.

“It’s not fair,” Randy said of how Mexico is handling the border crossings. “I could stay for a month — there’s no certain time.”

Christina Patiño Houle of the nonprofit Rio Grande Valley Equal Voice Network said the situation needs to be addressed.

“These are incredibly dangerous areas where these individuals are waiting for days and weeks to enter the bridge. We sometimes have pregnant women, women with toddlers, who are sent back into territories that are managed openly by cartels,” she said.

The Times reached out to Customs and Border Protection regarding claims of Mexican officials charging asylum seekers to cross bridges into the U.S. and was told the matter should be taken up with Mexico.

“Mexico is a sovereign nation, and our authorities do not cross international boundaries,” the agency said in a statement. “Actions of Mexican officials, or people in Mexico, should be addressed to the government of Mexico including any actions taken on the Mexican side of bridges and in the border cities of Mexico.”

The CBP said that asylum seekers are “processed on a first-come, first-serve basis.”

CBP told the Times it “does take into consideration persons with medical emergencies, unaccompanied alien children, the disabled, and gives priority as we can, bearing in mind the day-to-day availability of resources, case complexity, holding space, port volume and enforcement actions.”
