O’Malley Calls Trump’s Strong Stance Against Illegal Immigration ‘Hate Speech’ on Hispanic Network

“I said the other day at La Raza, if Donald Trump wants to run for president on an immigrant-bashing platform, he should go back to the 1840s and run for the president of the Know-Nothing party,” O’Malley said to an audience of Hispanics likely unfamiliar with American history, especially a 19th century movement that wanted to keep out Irish immigrants. (O’Malley perhaps still takes it personally.)

Trump/Cruz Summit in Manhattan

Cruz, the first Republican to declare a run for the presidency, will step onto Trump’s territory in Manhattan and is visiting Trump, not the other way around. As the Washington Post notes, the two candidates are on friendly terms and both take a strong, popular stand against mass illegal immigration.

Exclusive — Donald Trump on the GOP Primary: ‘If I Win, I Will Beat Hillary’

“It’s been a wild ride. It’s been pretty wild. But the message is getting out there and the polls are looking good, and we’re doing fine. And I’m enjoying it,” said Trump, who shot up in the polls after taking a strong stand against illegal immigration. “I loved what I was doing before, but this is so important for the country, because politicians are never going to make our country great.”

Rand Paul Calls for An End to Sanctuary Cities, Says There Should be Populist ‘Revolution’ Against Unsecured Border

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul called for an end of “sanctuary city” policies after a Mexican illegal immigrant shot the 32-year-old Kathryn Steinle dead on Pier 14 in San Francisco. Paul now joins candidates Donald Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz in calling for strict border controls to protect Americans from convicted felons such as Francisco Sanchez, who was deported five times yet sought out San Francisco deliberately because he knew he would not be deported from there.

Rubio’s Gang of Eight Bill Would Have Rewarded Sanctuary Cities Harboring Illegals

In the wake of yet another murder of an American at the hands of a Mexican immigrant, it’s worth revisiting the immigration bill put forth in part by GOP presidential candidate Marco Rubio, which offered rewards for sanctuary cities. Had the Gang of Eight measure become law, not only would it have allowed sanctuary cities to continue to refuse to cooperate with immigration authorities, it would have stopped ICE from pushing to strip federal funds from sanctuary cities that defied them by releasing aliens back onto the streets, thanks to an amendment added by California Sen. Dianne Feinstein.

Reuters Channels Ann Coulter: Mass Immigration Will Kill the GOP

Diversity makes everything the same, and worse, brings it down to the lowest common denominator. While Reuters cheers the impending leftist monolith that will disenfranchise every conservative voter, Coulter and candidates like Donald Trump and Scott Walker who have sensible positions on immigration show Americans can exercise control over their country — in the narrow window they still have.
