England

Sounds like the real Brits should apply for asylum themselves.


Their own gov is oppressing them.

Saw where in Surrey they are arresting people for merely having looked at women for a second too long, while jogging down the street in public. Was two reasonably attractive undercover female cops in skin tight jogging attire. Ie: they are trying to get guys to look at them so they can be arrested.

Saw another case where a guy had his cash seized merely because the cops computer said the guy was unemployed. Therefore he had to go show the police how he got that cash in order to possibly get it back.

England is f'ed up.
 

DOD Systems Bolster Border Security Operations​

The ground-based operational surveillance system — expeditionary, the long-range advanced scout surveillance system, and the common remotely operated weapon station are advanced tools and unique military capabilities used by service members assigned to Joint Task Force Southern Border to monitor large areas, detect illegal crossings and strengthen perimeter security in coordination with CBP agents.

Whether elevated on towers, deployed from concealed positions or mounted on armored vehicles, these systems provide persistent coverage across challenging and often inaccessible landscapes. Each platform offers a unique capability, contributing to the multilayered detection and monitoring strategy in place along the southern border.

The Great Reverse Migration​


This story was produced in partnership with the nonprofit newsroom TYPE INVESTIGATIONS and THE MARGUERITE CASEY FOUNDATION.

AS SOON AS THEY TAKE OFF from the Panamanian coast, there is a sigh of relief. Surrounded by 30 other Venezuelan migrants, packed inside an overloaded midsize speedboat, Edinson holds on tightly to the edge. The 37-year-old is tall and slender and has a presence that stands out as he towers over everyone. Over the past couple of weeks, he's become the de facto captain of a group of migrants making their way back to Venezuela.

At this point in their long journey, they sit in silence under blue skies and a blazing morning sun. The end is in sight. Sporting a black Los Angeles Dodgers baseball cap and a blue T-shirt, Edinson stares out to the crystal clear Caribbean Sea. He knows these waters can be deadly. A couple of months ago, a boat carrying 19 migrants capsized not too far from here, but Edinson tells himself he has survived worse.

The boat is being piloted by two local operators, also known as lancheros, who constantly scoop water to avoid flooding. Dressed in black from head to toe, these lancheros now make a living transporting migrants from Panama's Colón province in the central, northern part of the country to La Miel, a small town close to the Colombian border. This 12-hour sea route is the only way for migrants to bypass the dense, swampy, deadly Darién jungle that connects the two countries - the only spit of land linking North and South America via Central America. Each person making the voyage had risked their lives once to trek north through the jungle in their attempt to reach the United States. This time, on their way back to Venezuela, they want to avoid it at all costs, even if it means facing those rough Caribbean waters.

Project Veritas exposing the underbelly



And this is:

Daniel Fitzgerald, a State Department official responsible for allocating U.S. foreign aid and bribes across the Western Hemisphere.

Despite USAID pouring more than $4 billion into programs over four years, the “Great Replacement Theory” is real — the deliberate importation and protection of MS-13 is intended to destroy America as we know it.

— The State Department official affirmed:

“Oh, yeah. So all the good, honest, hardworking Mexicans stay in Mexico, and all the pieces of garbage come to the United States… And the Mexican government has no reason to stop it because their garbage goes to another country and sends money back to them.”

— When asked about the ultimate goal behind such policies, the official responded:

“They want to change the demographics of the United States… Traditional, standard Americans are not leftists. Latin Americans are all leftists. It literally is. It’s just— it literally is essential to try to change the demographics in the United States.”

📝 Up until Donald Trump, the U.S. Department of State — hand in hand with the United Nations — conspired to destroy Western civilization, while the U.S. Congress simply sat and watched. Meanwhile, USAID, the number-one sponsor of terror, funded it.
 

South Korea says ‘many’ of its nationals were detained in immigration raid on Hyundai facility in Georgia​

South Korea said Friday that it had expressed “concern and regret” to the U.S. Embassy over an immigration raid on a Hyundai facility in Georgia during which it said “many” South Korean nationals had been detained.

“The economic activities of our companies investing in the U.S. and the rights and interests of our nationals must not be unfairly violated,” said Lee Jae-woong, a spokesperson for the foreign ministry of the key U.S. ally, according to the Yonhap news agency.

Agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as well as Homeland Security Investigations and other federal agencies were involved in the operation on Thursday, which an ICE spokesperson said was conducted in connection with an investigation into “unlawful employment practices and other serious federal crimes.”

More than 300 Koreans detained by ICE in Georgia are heading home​

More than 300 South Korean nationals detained by federal agents in a massive immigration raid last week on a Hyundai plant in Georgia for alleged visa violations were released early Thursday and were being taken to Atlanta's Hartfield-Jackson airport for a charter flight back to their country.

The South Korean workers were among some 475 people detained on Sept. 4 by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at a still-under construction joint Hyundai-LG electric vehicle battery facility near Savannah. ICE said they were suspected of living and working in the U.S. illegally.

CBS News photographer Darrall Johnson watched as the Koreans boarded eight buses that then left for the airport, where a Korean Air charter flight was waiting to fly them home. Johnson said a cart full of documents was loaded onto one of the buses.

If they were all here legally and legally able to work, they wouldn't have had to leave the country.
 
If they were all here legally and legally able to work, they wouldn't have had to leave the country.

First and foremost: I have no dog in this fight. Posed because it is newsworthy.

That said, from my understanding they were here to build a battery plant that would employ a lot of people. Something was wrong with their visas. And now the rest is history.



I don't know what will happen in the future, but if I was the prez of S Korea I would probably find another country to invest in. The reason being the entire incident could have been handled differently, with no one arrested and the problems with the visas straightened out diplomatically with no interruption to the work going on at the plant.

I'm looking at this from other countries point of views. They have pledged to invest here in America and then they see this happening. I'm thinking this will give then second thoughts. May even drive them toward BRICS :dontknow:

Trump administration in damage-control mode after Hyundai immigration raid sparks investment concerns​

  • Trump said that skilled workers are “welcome” in the U.S. following immigration raids on a South Korean-owned battery plant last week.
  • However, Trump emphasized that these foreign workers are expected to return home eventually.
  • U.S. officials have reportedly expressed regret over the immigration raid and agreed on working towards new visa programs for South Korean workers.
The White House on Monday moved to limit the fallout of an immigration raid at a South Korean-owned battery plant in Georgia on Sept.4 — a move that angered the U.S. ally and sparked concerns regarding foreign investment in the U.S.

The Georgia facility, operated by Hyundai Motor Group and LG Energy Solution, saw 475 of its workers arrested on allegations that they were in the U.S. illegally, or without the proper work permits, with hundreds of detained South Koreans sent home Thursday.
