Obama Ignores Jan Brewer’s Request to Stop Dumping Illegals Into Arizona; Children Overwhelming Detention Centers

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer asked Obama to discontinue the release of illegal immigrants into Arizona, but Obama rebuffed the request and as a result, hundreds of children apprehended crossing the border are expected to be dropped off in Nogales. Meanwhile in California, state officials are releasing criminal illegal immigrants after citing legal liabilities for local governments who detain them beyond their jail term at the request of ICE.

It appears as if the Obama administration is orchestrating a crisis in the states in order to then push for the “comprehensive immigration bill” that some Republicans are eager to support. I’ve already seen many call this a “humanitarian crisis,” but the source of the crisis is the dysfunction of the countries where these illegals come from, and the unwillingness of Obama to enforce the rule of law.
