President Obama To Dictate Immigration Executive Order In Vegas On Friday
While what normally happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas; President Obama's decision to dictate his Immigration Executive Order from sin city will likely have repurcussions across the entire nation. As NY Times reports, Obama is preparing to use his executive authority to provide work permits for up to five million people who are in the US illegally, and to shield them from deportation. But these new arrivals will not receive one key benefit: government subsidies for health care available under Obamacare. The immigrants would also be unlikely to receive benefits like food stamps, Medicaid coverage or other need-based federal programs offered to citizens and to some legal residents. "The costs of extending these programs to millions of low-wage illegal immigrants would be enormous," said Senator Jeff Sessions "this is yet another danger posed to Americans by the president’s unconstitutional action."
As AP reports,
A Democratic official says President Barack Obama will visit Las Vegas on Friday.
The trip comes amid anticipation that the president will announce executive orders on immigration as soon as this week. Obama used a stop in Las Vegas in 2013 to outline his blueprint for immigration legislation.
Legislation passed in the Senate, but gained no traction in the Republican-led House. Obama announced this summer that he would instead move forward with executive action on immigration, but delayed the measures until after the midterm election.
People familiar with the president's proposals say the policy could shield from deportation as many as 5 million people in the country illegally, and grant them work permits.
The official insisted on anonymity because this person wasn't authorized to confirm the president's trip by name.
But, as The NY Times reports, it appears the immigrants won't get the entire largesse of American dependency...
Millions of undocumented immigrants who are set to be granted a form of legal status by President Obama as early as this week will not receive one key benefit: government subsidies for health care available under the Affordable Care Act.
Mr. Obama is preparing to use his executive authority to provide work permits for up to five million people who are in the United States illegally, and to shield them from deportation. But an official familiar with the administration’s deliberations said on Tuesday that such people would not be eligible for subsidized, low-cost plans from the government’s health insurance marketplace, HealthCare.gov.
...
The decision would reflect the political sensitivities that arise when there is a collision between two of the most divisive issues in Washington: health care and immigration. It would also underline the White House preference for not risking the fury of conservative lawmakers who have long opposed providing government health care to illegal immigrants, and who fought intensely to deny such immigrants coverage under the Affordable Care Act.
...
But a White House decision to deny health care benefits to the immigrants would also fall far short of the kind of full membership in American society that activists have spent decades fighting for. The immigrants would also be unlikely to receive benefits like food stamps, Medicaid coverage or other need-based federal programs offered to citizens and to some legal residents.
However, Sylvia Mathews Burwell, the secretary of health and human services, said that
federal aid — including health care benefits — could be available to children who are United States citizens but living with parents who are illegal immigrants. Such so-called mixed families “should not be scared,” she said, because they may be eligible for coverage and financial assistance.

We leave it to Senator Jeff Session of Alabama - the senior Republican on the Senate Budget Committee to conclude:
"The costs of extending these programs to millions of low-wage illegal immigrants would be enormous... This is yet another danger posed to Americans by the president’s unconstitutional action."
“It is plain that President Obama has no authority to grant lawful status to those declared unlawful by the duly passed laws of the United States,” he said. “Nor does the president have any authority to declare such individuals eligible to receive health benefits that have been restricted to lawful residents.”

“While President Barack Obama and many Democrats benefit from the influx of illegal aliens who may become Democrats themselves, it's the American taxpayers footing the bill for the politicians' future voters." -- former police officer and security director Iris Aquino.
NewsWithViews.com reports:
The group, Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), released a study that finds providing healthcare, education, law enforcement, and social services to a growing illegal alien population costs Californians $25.3 billion per year, according to the report.
The state's estimated 3 million illegal aliens and their 1.1 million U.S.–born children, known as anchor babies, cost the average California household -- headed by a U.S. citizen – $2,370 annually…
In a 2013 Examiner news story, it was reported that some state and local governments have expressed concerns about the impact that criminal aliens have on already overcrowded prisons and jails and that the federal government reimburses them for only 25 percent of the cost of incarcerating criminal aliens.
The education of illegal aliens' children or the American born children of illegal aliens is the largest burden to taxpayers at $14.4 billion each year. That includes standard public school education as well as English language instruction. Despite federal funding, which is but a fraction of the costs, the average amount taxpayers must pay $10,450 each year for each student.
The second-largest expense for the illegal alien population is law enforcement, courts and prison costs for illegal aliens who've committed crimes other than entering the U.S. unlawfully. The cost to California is said to be more than $4.4 billion, the FAIR study notes.
Meanwhile, healthcare for illegal aliens -- even before Obamacare -- costs taxpayers in California another $4 billion. The report finds that taxes collected from illegal aliens amounts to about $3.5 billion annually, and so claims that illegal immigrants "contribute more than they take" are spurious….
Overall, the report finds that:
• Funding the K-12 education for children who are themselves illegal aliens and for the citizen children of illegal aliens accounted for the largest share of the cost to taxpayers at $14.4 billion. These services included standard public school educations and supplemental English language instruction. Despite federal funding, the average per pupil expenditure is $10,450 each year.
• Justice and law enforcement costs — policing, court and incarceration — associated with illegal aliens soared to more than $4.4 billion.
• Medical services cost taxpayers approximately $4 billion, including $388 million associated with 68,000 births to illegal alien mothers.
• Public assistance — low-cost meal programs, free immunizations, etc. — are available to residents regardless of legal status. The $792 million price tag for these services is borne by California taxpayers…

Should we mail Boehner cry rags?
It was only months ago that Boehner and the repugs were looking to implement amnesty.
Call me cynical, but my guess is they'll pretend to be outraged. Like they were over Obamacare, but still do nothing.
Nice Huffingtonpost comment
Possibly up to 11 million illegals added to the labor roll some Hispanic leader said on the radio last week; hard to beleive Dems suppor thtis since they will displace Merikans from all the low wage jobs and many lower Middle Class jobs. Oddly, the Latino guy on the radio said many Hispanics are against barry's plan since the new 11 million will compete with those Latinos already here.
They have a good point.
On the bright side, my lawn service has dropped from near $100 down to $28. I guess there'll be knocks at the door to do it for $18 soon.
I believe your lawn service whould be referred to as a direct cost.
The indirect costs of your lawn service come to you via taxes and reduced services. And your kids, grandkids and their kids will no doubt have additional terms for you as well.
Here's My Change: Americans, do multiply! November 27, 2009
as opposed to white Hispanics?
TYPO :
The COST =>PROFIT ...
Let me get this straight. Illegals will not get Obamacare. What if the fuckers go to the ER or gets pregnant and has a kid. Who the fuck is gonnna pay for that President Obama. How about deporting them or not letting them in?
Your devious plan of creating more socialist Democrats is working. Republicans, you are just as useless as well.
Obviously Obama lies again. If his mouth is open, he is lying.
Obongo is nothing but a sock puppet for Soros and other members of the Satanic Tribe!
Tea baggers are going to hate this just like they hated when papa bush and Reagan did it.
Oh never mind, those guys were white.
You show the utter mindlessness of the left, there's no equivalency, and congress assented.
What this executive power story really tells us is what the left thinks of the right: they're impotent. The left would not be setting the standard of dictatorship if they thought there was any chance the right would use that power.
It also tells us that we cannot get along with the left. They never stop their incessant, childish demands. Unserious about everthing but power and emotion, the left is an existential threat to the freedom of every person. Somehow their pursuit of power has to be circumcribed or they will disarm all of us and make the slavery inherent in their system quite explicit.
It also tells us that the left doesn't really fear private firearms ownership, or veterans. Obama still makes public appearances and his safety has supposedly been compromised many times. I guess this also means that independent terrorism isn't a threat; a terrorist group could use Obama's free shit army to burn the country down if terrorists assassinated him.
Your assumption that it's a race issue reveals that you might be a cocksucking racist.
It seems to me that Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, and Obama are all operating in the same direction, and therefore presumably on behalf of the same people.
I don't know about Reagan, but I don't think any Bush is a friend of Ron Paul.
the tea party didn't exist then.
as for the "right wingers" you presuppose are wrong... well, people who believe in enforcing valid immigraiton law never were for not enforcing it.
You fucking rube.
Get thee to Daily Kos for the echo chamber and sloganeering you crave.
Ebola will close all borders eventually.
If Obama is able to make his executive order on immigration expected Friday stand successfully, then the Constitutional powers given to Congress related to defense of the country are over; they are dissolved. No longer can citizens turn to their elected representatives to support the Constitution, and only the path to revolution remains.
Should Americans choose not to take that path, then only slavery remains.
This is not amnesty. This is overriding the Constitution in order to provide greater, Third World welfare-control of America's political system. It's flagrant. And it's indicative of the aggressiveness the American people can expect from the international bankers in the future.
no odumba care, but they have to be treated anyway.
Because Globalists that puppet Obama work for care right?

They're not "undocumented immigrants". They are illegal aliens that are breaking the law every day they remain in the country. Deport, deport, deport.
This miserable, dirty, lying, double talking bho mother fucker is a disaster for the U.S. in every way possible.
Home Of The FREE... (shit army)
"Will not receive benefits."
Their already getting them. Medicaid, welfare, Obama phone, free education.
Next, 11 million more illegals coming to backfill for the next round of freebies.
Expansion of the FSA. Fuck all these politicians and banksters.
Funny how often big political issues like "immigration reform" (like Saddam Hussein's "weapons of mass destruction") get grabbed out of nowhere by the Screaming MSM. Anyone here know anyone who's having a really hard time because they can't get no immigration reform? No? Anyone's wife nagging him constantly they she needs more immigration reform? No? Then how did immigration reform get to be so important that Constitutional Lawyer Obama feels he must "singlehandedly do something about it"?
I have been waiting and waiting for a shoe to drop, and then I saw it, on no other than Rachel Maddow: Roman Catholic Bishops holding "cross border masses". AHA! I KNEW there had to be some well-organized group at work. And who does immigration reform actually help? 1) The aristocratic descendants of the conquistadors who conquered and still rule Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, etc., with iron fists. How? Because this provides them free "revolution protection" by giving them a handy pressure relief valve under which Native American peasants of extraordinary ability can opt to immigrate to the USA instead of challenging the local aristocrats. With the pressure off, the aristocrats can relax and continue paying the remaining peasants $1/day, while selling them bad food and water. 2) SP500 companies in the USA, who are always grateful for cheaper labor, more customers, and, yes, even the inevitable increase in "street crime" which gives them excuses to tighten the NSA vice of totalitarianism in the USA. 3) International bankers and corporate CEOs, who will ALWAYS be found behind, and getting a big cut out of, such things, and who apparently still want as much overpopulation as possible, because, to Hell with the future, they just want their second yacht, fifth castle, and thirteenth Ferrari, and they want them NOW.
4) Nation-wreckers who want to dilute the gene pool of the people who built America.
Deport all illegals to the Masters Golf Course in Augusta, Ga........
So now is the time to give them all a copy of the U.S. Constitution and educate them about their rights as citizens. Millions of them all pissed off will therefore no longer translate into easy demo-rat votes. Teach them to be conservatives, lol.
Manassas Park, Va. will be going nationwide soon. That little shithole city that I bought my first house in got completely taken over by illegals around 2004. 15 to a house, gangs, clogged roads, schools, sewer system, etc. When the crash came the property values plummeted by 70% from peak. 20111 was one of the worst hit zip codes for percentage property value loss from 2008-2010. Took me 5 years to break even from that shit and sell that house. When I left that hood, it was at least 50% rentals, section 8 thugs everywhere, trash all over the grounds, dilapidated homes and property values that still lagged greatly behind surrounding municipalities. This will be normal American life everywhere in 10-20 years. We have been sold out and nobody who is in a position to will do anything about it.
In California, we were first to see the tsunami of illegal immigration when communities, jobs and housing were taken over almost overnight. And in spite of referendums and public outcry, a federal judge could overturn all public opposition. As our communities filled up with this impact, it was easy to see that it was headed for the rest of the country. Yours is even more critical information as to what’s happening in the deliberate displacement of Americans as is New Hampshire’s:
“New Hampshire’s working-age immigrant population grew 70 percent from 2000 to 2014. Yet the number of working-age natives working in 2014 was only slightly above the number in 2000 and the share with a job actually fell. This undermines the argument that immigration on balance increases job opportunities for natives…
… there were nearly 41,000 more working-age natives not working in the first half of 2014 than in 2000 — a 25 percent increase…with 71 percent of its job growth going to foreign-born workers, including legal and illegal immigrants.
…yet Sens. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) and Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.) both voted for the ‘Gang of Eight’ immigration bill, which cleared the Senate which CIS calculated would have roughly doubled the number of new foreign workers allowed into the country and would have given legal status to millions of illegal aliens already in the country had the legislation been passed by the House and become law.”
Under what condition is treason not mean that the "president" is removed from office? And what is this purported "immigration" really about...? Well, as anyone who has read his book knows, Oboma cares about nothing except destroying a white majority in this country. The fact that (see: Africa) the removal of whites ends civilization, creates feuding tribes that chop each other up, and will...almost certainly...lead to the end of black americans is ignored by Obomao. He only knows what his reptile brain tells him: Hate whites, therefore, flood the country with non-whites and the only ones who are easily available are from South America.
This will mean, if you saw the recent 60 Minutes that was on Sunday) that water will cost a fortune; that your American children will not have futures because their schools will be busy translating materials and they can't get into college because colleges just love to show how "compassionate" they are by letting in the foreigners while our own children go without.
I no longer give a single penny to my alma mater until it assures that every spot is first given to an American. And who is an American? Birth drop babies are NOT American children; they are foreigners as they derive their rights via their parents and not via their dropping onto American soil; to believe that anyone "born" here is a citizen is a perversion of Wong Kim Ark (US vs Wong Kim Ark (1898). Wong Kim Ark had an Entire set of circumstances, applied as a blanket case by liberals. We do NOT give citizenship to those who are criminals. To break the law by being here illegally means you come with "unclean Hands" and cannot be legalized.
Jackson, out of Texas, says we will rip families apart if we don't cede our country to Latin Americans. When in history has any country been told it is required to destroy itself?
Obama is just a sock puppet, albeit a willing one. Mass immigration to the USA has been a Jewish enterprise from start to finish, notwithstanding the 'Teddy Kennedy Act' meme. http://irishsavant.blogspot.ie/2014/04/the-ted-kennedy-immigration-act-n...
The delusions of Dreamers fulfilled in Sin City by the criminal in Chief
oh no, what will folding chair Bohener doooooooooooooo
Now you smartypantses are not being fair to Mr. Obama - he's just being nice.
In fact, we the USA are one of the nicest countries in the world:
And the most generous country in the world is…...Myanmar and the U.S. shared a 64% generosity rating,...

Dats Raysist!!!!!!!!
Obama is an illegal alien himself!
An important consideration in regard to Obama making such a declaration, unconstitutional, as it may be, is that it sets precedent those on the opposite side of the authoritarian spectrum, far rightists, to make similar unconstitutional declarations. And just as Obama is making unprecedented unconstitutional moves so might the the next anti-consitutionally inclined president might want to (again) go one step further still. Extrapolate...if you are able.
So, if you're all 'hip' to this approach to (unconstitutional) government...be careful what you wish for.
This potential governmental and economic implosion is EXACTLY what Obama desires. His actions are intentionally setting the stage for real conflict.
Very, very possible. Progressives can't win a rational debate. Their only hope is 100% emotional debates, and oozing sores completely covering the body politic; ie, like 1984's constant wars, although, as a true Progressive, Obama wants to foment internal wars, not external ones as in 1984.
He wants to be hated. It is in his best interests if we hate him. If we hate him, I believe he may think he's won.
Anyone else get the feeling that someone in America is going to lose their shit over all this third-world immigration and pull an Anders Breivik?
Serious question. Since the politicians continue to provide no real discourse or dissent to the illegal immigration situation, it seems inevitable that someone is going to ultimately resort to violence to get their point across.
I'd say impeach him, but its clear both parties don't give a fuck about what the majority of most Americans want as to illegal immigration, and waiting in the wings is Joe "I am a Zionist" Biden.
There's no Constitutional basis for the Executive to ignore the law or to grant permits. The Left would be howling if it were a GOP President using 'executive authority' to enforce existing, valid law. Their silence and support as to the legality here tells you all you need to know about statist "living document" legal analysis, which is nothing if not politically motivated and inconsistent.
With what, 10% real unemployment - we can hand out 5 million work permits to people who broke the law by coming here, and who, for sure, will end up with all sort of "free" shit?
At what point will people have enough of the bankster/globalist/Zionist/MIC occupied federal government's complete disregard for the Constitution?
Aw, nevermind. Big game tonight.
Big game.
"Mr. Obama is preparing to use his executive authority to provide work permits for up to five million people who are in the United States illegally, "
Correction: Mr Obama is preparing to ABUSE his executive authority. Can't the New York Slimes get anything right?
an excellent kickstarter would be to fund a hostile takeover of the NYT, mouthpiece of the Deep State, by non-Zionist, politically independent types.
Why Zerohedge? In humble submission: The 150+ comments so far for this article.
Gonna be an ugly Monday
same shit, different day, illegals have had full access to illegal border crossings, jobs, and govt. programs for years, in fact the political machine assisted in all.
years ago everything changed, the borders opened, all actions which rounding up illegals for legal actions, and deportation were stopped, always the same story from law enforcement, told by higher authorities to cease and desist.
progressives, and communist politicians mutated to the next natural step a few years ago, facist, where there is no law, we rule.
what has been the loudest cry from the mountain tops, contain the illegal border crossings, and then we can proceed on immigration.
the reinslavement of black, and all poor americans started in 1964, the civil rights act, this is where progressive politicians shifted into a higher gear, communism.
they took on the lbj agenda, give those people just enough money to where it won't make a difference, but they'll vote democrat for the next 200 yrs. to keep their entitlements.
just think, they also had hundreds of gruebers on the payroll back then, the only bad part was there were to many americans in america, (working suckers), they substain this agenda, and enriched the political scum, right up till today.
now their facist, americans are broke, so the new gruebers are making extra ordinary laws to where all of americans assets are at risk, with the threat of forfeiture, or imprisonment.
this is why govt. is militarising govt. to no avail, i can't wait till the govt. employees in chicago, at irs, dept. of ag., ss ad., and others get handed a weapon told to go to the front door, and protect this building at any cost.
i hope they ordered a few billion depends along with their weapons , and ammo..
Emperor Obama, the Dictator in Chief! His Unholy Lawlessness!
He's in defiance of the US Consitution, the rule of law, the elected representatives of the American People, and the people themselves. He's a tyrant!
It recently came out that almost all deportations this year were not from Central America, something like 90%. Contrast that with the fact that 70% of illegals are from Mexico and Central America.
If we're opening the flood gates, then let everyone in. Why are Mexicans special? There are lots of Poles and east Germans who would come to the US for example.
And the supreme irony is that Mexico operates a draconian immigration policy which you defy at your peril.
I saw a peculiar sign in Spanish posted all over a gas station bathrooms once, as I thought I was misinterpreting it I enquired to it's meaning. Apparently, when you live in an area that has been inundated with fresh illegals they need to be reminded not to wipe their ass and throw their toilet paper on the floor. Charming. It may also be prudent to educate them shortly after their illegal entry that if they forcefully grope or manhandle women they could be shot. It's only fair that they should be made aware.
Americans have to raise a ruckus, if not the Kenyan will keep pressing with more hostilities, he wants a civil war

Nothing happens as to immigration [non]enforcement that Organized Jewry does not want.
Period.
.
'Jews Unite Behind Immigration Reform'. Amazingly though they don't want immigration 'reform' at all for Israel. (Scratchin' ma haid)

Senator Session is right, if Obama does this he needs to be arrested for breaking the law. Does anyone have a backbone and not just flap their gums in Congress?
He'll get away with it. Just watch.
The white population at large has been taken over mentally by this whole fucking farce of eqaullity. The bullshit of inter-racial breeding blatant homosexuallity ignoring skin color and so on .... all leads to one thing MUTTS... thier is no cultural identity NONE One thing I know and see everywhere is that the inter-mingling of dark and white races has led to what everyone here refers to as the FSA this go along get along BS has taught white kids to follow what they see in thier new found black culture friends ....don't work do dope sell dope hate whites even if you are one the list is endless.... and who is to blame The spineless fucking hippie generation you know the ones who brought us PETA GreenPeace Bra burning feminists all those original filthy non working motherfucking scum all started by the ADL and AIPAC.... This is all and always will be the doing of those fucking talmudist zionist MIC banking scum
I could have explained it better but you get the point I'm not posting a book here just getting to the point
They are probably scheduling the Ferguson annoucement on Friday also to befuddle the sheep over the weekend. Riot all weekend and then by Monday all immigration news in on back burner ... Gruber was right!
