I kept asking myself… Why is nobody standing up against the influx of illegal children other than Murrieta? After all, Murrieta is California… and nobody in the heartland is standing up? Well it seems that they are not the only ones:

WND: There was a massive ‘surge’ in national protest this week… Hundreds of cities fight back against ‘invasion’
Protesters in Vasser, Michigan, marched from city hall Monday, July 14th.
A massive protest scheduled for July 18 and 19 across the United States is aimed at stopping the influx of Central American children flooding across the border, and more than a dozen smaller community protests already have played roles in stopping the children from being brought there.
Citizens in Westminster, Maryland; Oracle, Arizona; Vassar, Michigan; Greece, New York, and many other places have blocked the importation of illegal aliens into their communities through public protests, letters and official resolutions from elected leaders.
See full list below.
Radio host Rush Limbaugh led his show Tuesday with stories about the successful pushback against the illegals going on across America.
“Here’s what you do not know,” he said. “There are towns all over America standing up to this invasion, just like they did in Murrieta, California. You’re not hearing about it, however, and I am here to tell you why you’re not hearing about it. Westminster, Maryland, is a town standing up to it, just like Murrieta, California, did. Oracle, Arizona, is standing up to it.
“In Nebraska they’re gonna stand up to it when they find out. The governor is fit to be tied,” Limbaugh continued. “Upper Michigan, same thing. There are towns all over America standing up to this. There are protests happening, but they’re not being covered.”
But the mother of all protests promises to be Friday and Saturday. It’s dubbed the National Day of Protesting Against Immigration Reform, Amnesty & Border Surge, and it’s gaining support by the hour, said William Gheen, president of the Americans for Legal Immigration PAC and one of 11 sponsors. The main organizers are ALIPAC, Overpasses For America and MakeThemListen.com, Gheen said.
“Right now it’s looking like we’ll have a little more than 300 protest rallies large and small across the country. Our goal is to unify Americans of all races, political parties and walks of life against the Obama-inspired illegal immigrant invasion,” Gheen said. “At last count we had 257 communities signed up, but that was two hours ago. We’re expecting more than 300 and updating the event list every two hours.”
Will protests of illegals by U.S. cities make a difference?
Gheen said he’s hoping to send a message to “amnesty” politicians in both parties. He wants to counteract the recent surge of illegals at the southern border with a “surge” of his own.
“We’re hoping to get an American surge that will manifest in protests and the defeat of more Eric Cantor-type Republicans that still have GOP primaries and the Democrats in November that support Obama and his amnesty plans,” Gheen told WND.
He said Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., is tops on the list of Republicans he’d like to see booted from Washington. Alexander faces a challenge in the Aug. 7 primary from small businessman and state legislator Joe Carr, who has the backing of the tea party. He said 40 Republicans in the House also “need to go” because they are pro-amnesty politicians “playing the role” of conservatives.
“That’s why we’re involved in this historic protest, to help turn the tide in this,” he said. “That’s what they fear the most. They don’t fear people standing on an overpass swinging a flag. What they fear is when they know the next stop is the election booth and that’s our message. We want everybody to support these protests but we want them to understand we need to get them involved in these elections and the defeat of many of Obama’s amnesty allies.”
Look here for a state by state listing of protest locations.
Gheen, who said he has worked as a consultant on 40 political campaigns, predicts this November will go down in history as a monumental house-cleaning in Congress.
“I am predicting that it is now possible to sweep more Democrats out of office than was done in the historic revolutions of 1994 and 2010,” he said. “We have to elect so many grassroots and populist conservatives that we can get the amnesty supporters out of office, and that includes John Boehner. Obama is doing this because he does not fear John Boehner. Republicans like Boehner and Rick Perry are not really Obama’s opponent. They just play those roles on television. They’re like people who can’t act well enough for Hollywood but they play characters on television for political purposes.”
Gheen said the coalition includes groups from varied backgrounds, including 2 Million Bikers to D.C., America Working, Americans Have Had Enough Coalition, Remember 1986, Tea Party Community and Riders USA. See the full list here.
James Neighbors, an Oklahoma City-based activist and founder of Overpasses for America, said his group will serve as the main logistics organizer on the ground in the various cities, checking on local protest laws and other details. He said it hasn’t been hard to get people excited about coming out to protest illegal immigration.
“Really we just give them the facts, and in this case it happens to be amnesty and how it’s going to cost over $60 billion to intake all of these illegal aliens and that’s only the 11 million the government admits are here. That number is from 2004,” Neighbors said. “We’re being invaded. That’s why we’re taking a strong stance on this because we’re looking and seeing more than one out of every 10 in the whole country being here illegally. That’s not even including what’s pouring across the border last several months. With the magnitude of what’s happening to America it might also be treasonous, because we believe it’s intentional.”
Neighbors said his group has demonstrated on overpasses in favor of impeachment, against Obamacare and for an investigation into the terrorist attack on the U.S. special mission in Benghazi, Libya. He thinks this weekend’s amnesty protest will be the largest of them all.
“I think it will be bigger. It’s a collaboration of several different groups and we’ve been able to get the word spread out so well on this,” he said. “People are so angry on this, it’s more tangible than impeachment. People can look around and see the results of what our open borders plan has been. I’m glad we’ll be able to provide an outlet for their anger.”
He said the protests will be strictly peaceful.
“We don’t engage in violence, we simply exercise our First Amendment rights and educate the public with our protests,” he said. “We really look at it as a bypassing of the media. The ratings of the mainstream media are at an all-time low but you can’t ignore people out on an overpass; it sticks in your mind.”
What already has happened is clear.
Communities just say no to transplanted illegals
In Vassar, Michigan, about 50 protesters marched from City Hall through town on July 14 to the doorstep of a contractor that agreed to house up to 120 teenage boys from Central America. Some carried AR-15 rifles and handguns and tea party flags, according to a local newspaper report.
It was the second time in two weeks the protesters gathered. The protests are organized by Michiganders for Immigration Control, reported Fox 17 Detroit.
“We must act,” said Tamyra Murray, a resident of Blumfield Township near Saginaw, who organized the protests. “We must save America and stand up against this invasion.”
The Pioneer Work and Learn Center is under consideration to house up to 120 of the children, who are part of the massive influx of undocumented immigrants who have crossed the U.S.-Mexico border since the fall. The minors, ages 12-17, would remain at the facility up to four weeks while their cases move through the immigration system.
In Oracle, Arizona, a small town near Tuscon, protesters on both sides of the immigration debate showed up Tuesday after the sheriff said the federal government plans to transport about 40 immigrant children to an academy for troubled youths.
One group waved American flags, held signs that read “Return to Sender” and “Go home non-Yankees” and said it would block a bus that was supposed to arrive with immigrant children aboard. A few miles up the road, about 50 pro-immigrant supporters held welcome signs with drawings of hearts. The dueling groups each had about 50 people, according to the Associated Press.
“We are not going to tolerate illegals forced upon us,” protester Loren Woods told the AP.
Prince William County, Virginia, is preparing to sue ICE to get immigration data on 7,500 criminal illegal aliens turned over to the feds since 2008.
Prince William County Board of Supervisors will meet and is expected to give the green light to a lawsuit demanding immigration data from the federal government if the data is not turned over soon in response to a Freedom of Information request.
Corey Stewart, chairman of the Prince William County Board of Supervisors, told Fox 5 in Washington, D.C., he has a simple question for ICE: “What have you done with the 7,500 criminal illegal aliens that we have handed over to you since 2008?”
Stewart is the architect of the county’s policy, which has police check the immigration status of people arrested for crimes.
“Our policy has always been about catching criminal illegal aliens,” said Stewart. “Not about the illegal immigrant here trying to make a living.”
Once they serve their terms, they are turned over to ICE. And that is where the trouble starts.
“Were they released back into the United States or were they deported?” Stewart wondered.
Since it instituted its stepped-up enforcement, Prince William County police have arrested and turned over to ICE more than 7,000 people who are in the United States illegally. The problem is the county says ICE now won’t tell them where those people are.
In Chicago’s south suburbs in late June, a planned transfer of illegal alien children to a former monastery was stopped when a congressman intervened with letters to the Obama administration.
Rep. Randy Hultgren, R-Ill., called for those efforts to be stopped, arguing that moving the children to the facility would only make matters worse for the children while creating orphanages even farther away from their homes.
“These children, unaccompanied by their families and under the control of smugglers and trafficking organizations, don’t need a stopgap solution,” he told NBC 5 in Chicago. “They should be returned to their home countries quickly and with human dignity, not left to languish in legal limbo.”
Congressional candidate Eric Wallace, who lives near the proposed site, also expressed concern about how the children would be absorbed into the community.
In Bristol, Virginia, the Washington County Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution July 8 banning any resettlement of illegal aliens in the city, which apparently shot down a plan by the feds to house a group of Central American children at a vacant college campus, reported the Bristol Herald Courier.
Board members voted unanimously to send a resolution to local and federal legislators, as well as federal agencies, saying they oppose housing illegal aliens in the county, unless they’ve been charged as criminals and are treated accordingly.
The resolution that was approved was drafted by board member Jim Baker, who rewrote a resolution that County Administrator Jason Berry had drafted and put into the draft meeting agenda.
The topic of housing immigrants or refugees came up at the last board meeting, after it was made known that federal authorities were apparently considering the vacated Virginia Intermont College in Bristol as a site to house children who have fled Central America. Residents in Lawrenceville, Virginia, protested the housing of about 500 immigrant children at Saint Paul’s College, which closed a few years ago.
Baker’s resolution is more general, opposing the housing of all illegal aliens in the county, regardless of their age or situation.
“We don’t wish to be a target for illegal immigrants, and support other localities and local officials trying to fight it,” Baker told the Herald Courier.
In Greece, New York, a vacant 90,000-square-foot warehouse was under consideration by the federal government as temporary housing for illegal child immigrants but local elected leaders put a stop to the plan.
“It is my understanding from talking to the developer that he and the federal government would not move forward with this if the community did not support it, and we do not,” City Supervisor Bill Reilich said during a news conference at Greece Town Hall.
In Brockport, New York, near Rochester, the feds were eyeing a vacant Walmart as housing for illegal alien children from Central America. Rep. Chris Collins, R-New York, came out against the plan, which is now being reconsidered.
“As I have said before, it is unacceptable the federal government is trying to force the hardworking taxpayers of New York to foot the bill to house undocumented immigrants,” said Collins in a statement.
According to Collins, HHS is considering at least two other facilities in the state — a former convent in Saratoga County and a business park in Nassau County.
The federal agency was embarrassed earlier last month when it sent agents to inspect a facility near Buffalo it was considering for housing UACs. When the agents showed up to inspect the facility, they were informed that it was a fully functional resort and spa.
In Hazleton, Pennsylvania, a vacant building in the downtown business district was being considered as temporary shelter for unaccompanied teens flooding over the Mexican-U.S. border.
Rep. Lou Barletta, R-New York, called a press conference and vehemently criticized the plan, citing the possibilities of diseases being brought into the community and possible criminal or terrorist elements.
“We’re not talking about housing unaccompanied children at some military installation in Texas,” Barletta said. “There are people looking into housing them right here in our communities, and in towns just like this one, possibly all over America.”
In Bethpage, New York, a former Grumman manufacturing plant had been under consideration to house “thousands” of unaccompanied illegal alien children from the border surge but was ruled out after opponents said the former EPA Superfund site would not be an appropriate place for children to live. Superfund sites are environmentally contaminated industrial sites. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services did not give a reason as to why it ruled out the Bethpage facility.
In Westminster, Maryland, the feds decided not to use a former Army Reserve base as housing for illegal alien children after local officials objected to the transfer of illegals into their community.
A spokesman for Rep. Andy Harris, R-Maryland, told WBAL Radio that the congressman was notified that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services decided not to use the Westminster facility.
Harris, who represents part of Carroll County, joined some county officials in opposing the move. In a statement, Harris said flying the children to Maryland made no sense.
In Baltimore, Maryland, opposition from both of the state’s U.S. senators and from local officials blocked the proposed illegal alien housing facility at a vacant Social Security Administration Building in the city’s downtown area.
Sens. Barbara A. Mikulski and Ben Cardin had publicly objected to the proposal, as did Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake.
“The site they had intended is not being considered at this time,” Caron Brace, a spokeswoman for the mayor, told the Baltimore Sun. “However, the urgent need remains.”
In Escondido, California, the city planning commission rejected a proposal to turn an old nursing home into a shelter to house undocumented children.
Nearly 500 people packed into City Hall June 24 to show their concern and 100 of them signed up to speak. Police were there in case the crowd got too “rowdy,” according to ABC 10.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services wanted to open a 96-bed facility on Avenida Del Diablo, which is the site of a nursing home once operated by Palomar Pomerado Health Services.
Escondido’s mayor, anti-immigration activists and people who live near the site all opposed it. Ly Lykou came to this country 30 years ago from Asia.
“We did it the right way. We waited in line. We had our lungs X-rayed. If they want to do it the right way, let’s do that, but I feel like this is being forced on us. This is not a temporary situation,” Lykou said.
But have heard about it in the nightly news?
This is Obama’s War on the Suburbs
EIB:
RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, as an adjunct, or a continuation of the discussion just now on the polling data, the Washington Post/ABC News poll showing how bad it is for the Republicans, the way they’re handling the immigration crisis on the Southern border. I had a sound bite yesterday from the governor of Nebraska and I did not get to it, and I could shoot myself for not getting to it. I don’t need it now, too late now. It’s my bad. But I can tell you what it was about.
The governor of Nebraska was livid when he found out that a whole slew of these children crossing the border are being dumped in his state and nobody told him, he didn’t know. That was the sound bite. And it’s happening to a lot of governors. They’re not being told. That Border Patrol and Homeland Security and whoever it is, these companies the Regime has hired to handle transportation logistics, they’re just dumping these kids. They’re dumping them with families, I mean, they’re dumping them in houses and homes. They’re not dumping ‘em on the street, but the governors of these states do not know it.
There’s a story about this today at National Review Online, Jim Geraghty’s column. Obama’s Feds secretly inserting what are essentially illegal alien invasion forces into the states and not telling state authorities. And there’s a link to the study or the report. We had the sound bite from the governor yesterday. Now, there’s a dot here that is not being connected. You remember me telling you, and I interviewed this guy for the Limbaugh Letter. Stanley Kurtz of National Review wrote a book on his demographic study of what he says is Obama’s war on America’s suburbs. And there is a related initiative at Housing and Urban Development called AFFH, Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing.
Now, Kurtz’s theory is — and you know that leftists are very upset at what they think is the unfairness and the disparity between city dwellers and suburban. They think suburban dwellers are basically effete, elite, upper middle class rich snobs who fled the filthy confines of the city to escape it, leaving behind the poor and the disadvantaged to wallow in the garbage. And this isn’t fair.
So Kurtz has a theory that Obama has a war on the suburbs to take people from the inner city and put them in the suburbs via affordable housing right in these suburban neighborhoods. It is happening, and I will take a break and explain it in a moment.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Stanley Kurtz said in his interview with me in the Limbaugh Letter, as well as in his book, that this transformation of the suburbs would be a major tenet of Obama’s second term.
Now, when did this border crisis start? Second term. What do we have? We’re being overrun. There’s no end in sight, by the way, and the news is that there’s no end in sight. The governments of Mexico and Guatemala are facilitating the trip north by these kids. There’s no end to this, folks. Nobody’s trying to stop it. Obama’s not trying to stop it. The Republicans aren’t trying to stop it. That’s why this poll is so cockeyed.
And these kids, what’s happening to them? Nobody’s allowed to see. Nobody’s allowed to know, are they? That’s why the governor of Nebraska was a little bit upset when he found out that a bunch of ‘em are ending up in his state, which takes us back to Stanley Kurtz. Kurtz makes the point that Obama and the left — and this is true, this is not opinion. They will tell you this if you listen to them. They think people that live in the suburbs — well, they resent them. You’ve heard a term applied to suburbanites called “white flight,” have you not? That’s how Obama looks at it.
Obama, Eric Holder, and many on the left in the Democrat Party think that people in suburbia fled the city to get away from minorities, essentially, to get away from the poor. To get away from dilapidated buildings and crumbling infrastructure. They moved to the suburbs and they formed these communities which are clean and prosperous and it’s not fair because the poor couldn’t leave, the poor were trapped. The upwardly mobile, because of their relative affluence, were able to leave and move.
So Obama has had a war on the suburbs. And do not doubt this. This is something that’s never gonna be in the news. This is something that’s part of the Obama agenda that’s never going to be openly stated, just like he never openly stated that he was for socialized medicine. He did in closed session with his union buddy supporters, but he’ll never put it as part of the agenda.
Now, how this is happening is this. There’s an initiative from the Housing and Urban Development department called Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing. The concept, as it is properly understood, is to change the enforcement paradigm in order to allow the Department of Housing and Urban Development to essentially decide what every neighborhood in America should look like. Now, if you go, “Come on, Rush.” Let me just ask you to remember something.
How long is it been, in your memory, that you’ve heard Democrats say that diversity is our greatest strength, diversity is our greatest power, and that we must have a government that represents the diversity of America. We must have cabinet department that represents the diversity. We must have a Supreme Court that represents the diversity. You’ve heard this now. And of course diversity means one thing: skin color. It doesn’t mean different rich cultural differences that they want to meld. This is purely skin color.
Spreading the Wealth: How Obama is Robbing the Suburbs to Pay for the Cities
It’s a reverse affirmative action kind of thing. But that’s what they mean by “diversity.” They’re skin-deep people, and they simply say, “We have to have diversity based on the appearance of the mixture of the people in any particular group, including a neighborhood.” And if a neighborhood is not properly diverse, then the Housing and Urban Development department, along with its Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing initiative is going to be able to decide and proscribe what every neighborhood in America should look like. So the paradigm for decades has been that discrimination is illegal, right? That has been how everybody has lived and governed their life, discrimination is illegal.
Okay, but discrimination in housing has been illegal for 40 years. Yet we have segregated neighborhoods. Why is that? If discrimination is illegal and yet we have segregated neighborhoods, how is this happening? And it is more often than not, dare I say, because people want to live among their own racial and ethnic roots. It’s not that they’re being denied the chance to live somewhere. It’s that they are choosing to live with, quote, unquote, their own kind. This is especially true among minorities.
So, since the Regime, because discrimination has been illegal for 40 years, they could never prove illegal discrimination, the social engineers in the Regime now say that what they must do is attack the root causes of de facto segregation and find out why people want to live among their own and change that. And the way they’re going to change it is to mandate that states integrate by essentially building low-income housing in nicer suburban neighborhoods. And the penalty would be millions in federal funds would be withheld from municipalities that don’t comply.
You people in Westchester County in New York know exactly what I’m talking about because there is a huge lawsuit going on right now over just this. The Regime is requiring to get even with all of this flight to the suburbs that took place back in the fifties and sixties and seventies. And it’s continued to happen. And it isn’t fair. It just isn’t fair that some people should be able to get out of the hellholes while others have to stay in them. And so, the Regime is going to make it easy for people that cannot escape the hellholes on their own to escape ‘em by moving them there under diversity law, anti-discrimination law, the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing initiated.
So what they’re gonna do is build projects, is the name for this low-income housing. Think Pruitt-Igoe. Think Bed-Stuy. They’re gonna build public housing in these affluent suburban areas to make sure that there is diversity. This is what people who are aware of what Obama’s doing are calling his war on the suburbs. I realize some of you are thinking, “Come on, Rush.” Folks, please use your common sense. You know that practically everything Obama’s doing is based on redistribution. Redistribution is what? Taking from those who have.
And why? Because of the belief they didn’t get it fairly. They screwed somebody, they inherited it or they had an unfair break somewhere along the line. They committed some great crime, whatever, it just isn’t legitimate. Nobody who has a lot of money really could get a lot of money with just pure honesty and talent and hard work. So Obama is here to level the playing field, and he’s doing it with the redistribution of wealth.
We got a hundred million Americans not working. They’re all eating. They’ve all got cell phones and they’ve all got big screens and if they wanted to watch the World Cup, they could. We’re converting from full time to part time everywhere so that people have only one place to go for health insurance eventually, Obama, federal government. It’s all happening right in front of your face, right between your eyes you’re being hit, and you can see it happening with both of your eyes.
So to close the loop, we go back to the Southern crisis with these refugees, illegal alien immigrants, and the fact that they are being placed in states where states authorities including the governor are not being told. They’re being placed in the homes of people who are either being paid to take them or who are supposedly their family or what have you, but nobody knows how this is happening.
They’re in the processing centers for such a small amount of time that the medical screenings are not proper. They’re not thorough. So we don’t know what kind of infectious disease we’re importing. We don’t know as much as we should. These kids are being flown out, bussed out, driven out, and they’re ending up all over the country, and there’s no end in sight.
And you don’t think they’re being deposited in these buildings with broken windows on Eighth Avenue, do you? They’re certainly not being deposited there. Make no mistake what this is. There is a deep resentment held by many on the left for those in this country who are affluent, those who “made it” or what have you. It’s cut-everybody-down-to-size time. It’s time to show the United States what life is really like for everybody else.
I have a quote here from John Kerry. He’s — I don’t know — mumbling around out there. He actually said he gets really, really uncomfortable when he hears America talk about exceptionalism. It just really rubs him wrong, just makes him embarrassed and nervous. He doesn’t like when Americans talk that way.
So who they are is an open book, right out in front of you. All it takes is the courage to admit it. And so if you want to know why all of this is being permitted, I mean, there’s any number of correct answers to it, but this is just the latest to throw into the pile.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: So 750 affordable housing projects are being forced on Westchester County, New York. Westchester County, New York, is being forced to build 750 affordable housing projects even though the county is the fourth most diverse in the state. West Chester County rivals Manhattan in the number of black and Hispanic residents, but it doesn’t matter. It’s suburbia. That makes the difference here. Westchester County is suburbia, and they’re gonna be made to look like the city.
Since they had the ability to leave, fine.
“You left, so we’re gonna take the city back to you.”
That’s essentially what is happening.

RUSH: Barry in Sterling Heights, Michigan. I thank you for waiting. Great to have you on the EIB Network. Hello.
CALLER: Hi, Rush. First-time caller.
RUSH: Great to have you.
CALLER: Hey, Rush, we were just watching the news. In Vassar, Michigan, which is up in the thumb, they’re gonna be forcing 120 kids that’ll be 12 to 17 years old from the border. They’re gonna bring ‘em all the way up to Michigan, and in a small rural town of Vassar, Michigan, where they won’t really have but local objections. But they did get 300 people objecting to it. They should really not being transferring these people around. They should at the border and force the legal network down there to actually process the people or send ‘em back.
RUSH: Yep.
CALLER: But this organization out of Chicago, the Heartland Alliance, contracted with the Michigan children’s social caregiver organization, this Wolverine Human Services, and that’s how they’re bringing ‘em in.
RUSH: Yep. They’re one of the many that responded to the ad Obama placed in a federal websites back in January seeking companies with transportation and logistics services to disperse these kids all over the country. And, you know, you take kids from Guatemala, El Salvador, and put ‘em up in the thumb of Michigan, as you say, they’re gonna freeze. Anyway, the state authorities are not being consulted. They’re just being (what’s the word?) deposited, planted. They’re just being dropped off.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Anyway, folks, what better way could you think of, if you wanted to implement this so-called Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing. If you have a war on the suburbs and if you resent the people that live there because they had the ability to move out of dilapidated cities and escape dilapidated cities. You’re mad at that and you want to get even with them so you got a war on the suburbs.
You’re gonna do this by building public housing in the middle of these suburban communities. What better way to give a boost to the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Act and the remaking of American neighborhoods than to start injecting illegal immigrant populations into targeted cities and towns in the suburbs all across the country?
It fits perfectly with Obama’s community organizer roots. You overwhelm the local government’s social services with new claimants. That requires higher taxes, higher fees to pay for schools, medical services, disability, unemployment, all that. Massive redistribution of wealth. You’re importing kids. They can’t provide for themselves. They don’t have any skills yet. They’re poor. They need to be totally supported by somebody. Obama to the rescue.
Now, here’s the thing about this. Here’s what you do not know. There are towns all over America standing up to this invasion, just like they did in Murrieta, California. You’re not hearing about it, however, and I am here to tell you why you’re not hearing about it. Westminster, Maryland is a town standing up to it, just like Murrieta, California, did. Oracle, Arizona, is standing up to it.
In Nebraska they’re gonna stand up to it when they find out. The governor is fit to be tied. Upper Michigan, same thing. There are towns all over America standing up to this. There are protests happening, but they’re not being covered. The Drive-Bys are ignoring them and there’s one reason why. The Drive-Bys, do you remember in Murrieta, California, busloads of children, illegals, dumped in Murrieta. The people who lived in Murrieta met those buses with long lines and shouts and turned those buses away. They had meetings with the mayor and the city council and they were committed to not accepting these busloads of illegals in Murrieta, and they turned ‘em away.
Now, the Drive-Bys, I am convinced, I’m so sure of this, I think the Drive-Bys didn’t get the reaction from their coverage of Murrieta that they thought they were gonna get. You know what they thought they were gonna get? I guarantee you, when they put pictures of the protesters in Murrieta all over national TV, what they expected was a bunch of other people all over the country calling the people of Murrieta racists and bigots and all of these other insults.
They were thinking that by showing the people of Murrieta refusing to accept these poor, innocent little children, that the people of this country would be outraged at the selfishness of people in Murrieta, California. But that didn’t happen, did it? They thought, the Drive-Bys thought their news audiences would be outraged at the racist and hard-heartedness of the protesters, but that didn’t happen. The viewing audiences sided with the people of Murietta, California. So there won’t be any more coverage of people in these towns where the illegal children are being dumped protesting. No more. You won’t see it because the Drive-Bys didn’t get attraction they wanted.
But rest assured, the protests continue to happen. You know, I’m wondering at what point people are gonna figure this out. It’s gonna be slow, town by town, people are gonna figure out what’s happening to them. We’ve been trying to warn people all over this country for five and a half years of what is ahead and what’s in store for everybody because of this Regime. And, course, we’ve been thought of as various names and this kind of thing. But the reality is gonna hit them at some point. But it’s gonna be too late, I fear. By the time they figure out what’s going on, that there’s something to be worried about, the mechanisms for stopping it will have been exhausted. At any rate, that’s that.

RUSH: Stephanie, Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, you’re next. It’s great to have you. Hi.
CALLER: Hi, Rush. Thanks for taking my call.
RUSH: You bet.
CALLER: I just wanted to share my experiences with you. Recently our neighborhood and the neighborhood next to us tried unsuccessfully to fight against the development of a subsidized housing project that’s basically going to be put in our backyard.
RUSH: That would be called low-income housing, correct?
CALLER: Yes.
RUSH: Affordable. Sorry, affordable. Affordable.
CALLER: Affordable, yes.
RUSH: Affordable. Yes. Yes.
CALLER: The kicker is they’re gonna build 35 two- to three-story housing units, a community building, and 76 parking lots in what now is currently a parking lot used by a car dealer on a very busy road, very dangerous for the new residents that will be going into this neighborhood. They estimate 75 to a hundred children will potentially live there, and there’s a lot of things I think –
RUSH: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait just a minute. Did you say 35 buildings?
CALLER: Thirty-five two- to three-story housing units.
RUSH: Housing units, okay.
CALLER: A community building and 76 parking lots.

CALLER: Right.
RUSH: On a parking lot of a car dealership. Is the car dealer being moved or closed down?
CALLER: No. They just sold this parking lot.
RUSH: All right.
CALLER: It was kind of interesting how it all turned out. One of our commissioners happened to be going door-to-door campaigning, and my mom thanked him and asked about — we were trying to fight — they just recently moved a major road, which kind of opened our street and made it into a throughway which used to be a very quiet neighborhood. So we’ve definitely had some changes due to building and everything getting larger. He then shared that I should look into it because something big was coming. And we happened to, and if we didn’t do that, if that door-to-door information wasn’t shared, we wouldn’t have known anything about this, and this would have been passed without anyone knowing about it, because we don’t always check our board website, our township board website.
RUSH: Right, by design. You weren’t supposed to know about it.
CALLER: Right.
RUSH: Nobody checks the board website.
CALLER: Right.
RUSH: Nobody watches the board’s public access TV show.
CALLER: Right.
RUSH: Nobody watches that stuff, so you weren’t supposed to find out.
CALLER: But I think a lot of people would be interested in knowing the one thing about, when a place like this comes in — now, they’re gonna have the 35 low-income housing, but 10 of them are gonna be Section 8, and six of them will be for mentally ill, four will be for physically ill. We did fight and we actually got it delayed. They had expected to be building it already, and it has not started yet, so we’ve delayed it for a year, which we think is great.
RUSH: Now, I need to ask you a question playing devil’s advocate ’cause I know there are a lot of leftists in this audience who will not admit they’re there, but I know they’re there, and they’re probably shouting at their radio, “Well, what’s wrong with people like that moving into your neighborhood? Who do you think you are? Why is it bad? Why is it bad for people like that to move into your neighborhood? What are you afraid of? Why don’t you like those people, huh? Are you a racist? Are you a bigot? Are you sexist? Do you not like the retarded? What don’t you like about it?” That’s what they want to know.
CALLER: And I can tell you, as a stay-at-home mom, I’ve been at home for eight years raising my two children, and I have made a lot of sacrifices myself. And I’m actually one that I don’t have a fancy phone. I don’t have text messaging, either, just because I want to save money. We’ve lived with the basics, and my husband has two jobs. And for these people to be able to come in, and when you look at the average salary that they’re accepting, from $27,000 to 50,000, and then all the units are gonna have Energy Star labels. You know, the Energy Star rated refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers.
RUSH: Right. I know the drill.
CALLER: Basically my theory is that you should work hard, and if you don’t have it, then you should continue working for it. I understand everybody needs a break from time to time, but I don’t think that you need to be put in a spot where other people will then have to pay for you to do that. Our schools that they’re gonna be going into, they’re already maxed out. They’re actually now gonna have to expand our school, and they’re knocking our middle school down. They’re gonna have to build a new one.
RUSH: Now, Stephanie, let me interrupt you only because of the constraints of time. I’m sure you know this is by design. This is what the noted author, Stanley Kurtz, has written a book about, this that’s happening to you in Mechanicsburg. He calls it Obama’s war on the suburbs, and it is exactly your attitude that Obama would cite as the justification. You say you worked hard? Well, you didn’t. You just got lucky, and maybe your husband does work two jobs, but at least he’s got the freedom to do it. But you’re no different than these other people coming in and you’re no better, and it’s time you learned that, Stephanie.
This is an all-out assault on all the values that you hold dear. I could ask you another question the left would, “Well, when did you leave the city to get rid of these people, to escape these kind of people that you don’t like, because that’s only fair that Obama would put them back where you are.” Did we lose her? Are you still there?
CALLER: I am here. The other thing they do not have to do is they do not have to pay real estate taxes in full like we do.
RUSH: Well, of course not. They’re disadvantaged. Of course not. Why should they? They’ve been given the excrement sandwich their whole life, and it’s time you made it up to ‘em, because their plight is because of you and people like you. So learn it, love it, live it.
WATCH, SHOCK: Obama’s Illegal Alien ‘Youth’ Arrive In Bus And Shop At Walmart With EBT Cards…Money Taken Out Of Your Paycheck
Mad World News:
If we were to listen only to the mainstream media and the talking points from the White House, they would have us believe that not only is the government doing everything possible in order to stop the invasion of our Southern border, but those who are crossing are refugee children who can’t be turned away. However, a video that was recorded on Sunday by a North Carolina woman places serious doubts on whether or not either of those things are true, as it allegedly shows busloads of adult illegal immigrants getting dropped off at a local Walmart to shop for supplies for their shelter.
Sylvia Locklear was on her lunch break Sunday afternoon around 1:30 p.m. when she noticed something strange happening in the parking lot of Walmart in Concord, NC – there was busloads of what appeared to be adult illegal immigrants being dropped off to shop for everything from food to pillows and blankets. Angered by her discovery, Sylvia decided she was going to investigate a little further, and what she found should outrage every American citizen.
In the video above, Sylvia can be heard talking to another person who presumably was curious about what was going on, so she explained to them that prior to taking the video she had tried to talk to the people on the bus. Not only could they barely speak English, but one of them had said they had just arrived in America.
We all know that this has been happening, however, the sheriff of her town had said that they weren’t allowing any illegals to be shipped in, so it would appear as if the Obama regime is once again placing undue burdens on the states and not even letting them know what’s going on. What’s worse is that in the comments under the video she posted to Facebook, Sylvia said that when she was in line behind them that they were using government-issued EBT cards to pay for their purchases.
The Kannapolis Police Department wouldn’t comment on the video when I reached out to them, and the sheriff couldn’t be reached for comment. However, there’s been many reports of illegals being shipped to towns without the knowledge of town officials as Judge Jeanine pointed out over the weekend.
