If you shop at Macy’s, the price of everything you buy will go up a bit to cover the latest Obama immigration outrage. Macy’s, unlike many other businesses (see Chipotle a/k/a “Sh-tpotle,” America’s largest illegal alien smuggling ring), went the extra mile to verify that its employees are here legally and eligible to work. But the Obama administration no likee that and went after Macy’s in a federal civil lawsuit filed by the Obama (in)Justice Department, which Macy’s just settled for $275,000 (nuisance money) and a whole lotta legal fees.

Yes, it’s not a lot of money for a major retailer, but only a few immigrant employees were involved and it’s a disturbing harbinger for how the Obama administration will actually “secure” the borders and the interior under amnesty, as in . . . NOT AT ALL. Macy’s won’t be the only employer that is taken to court by the feds for actually trying to comply with immigration-related employment laws. There will be many others. So employers will do the bare minimum, rather than risk it. They will be forced to accept fake IDs at face value. And plenty of illegal aliens will get jobs that should be reserved for Americans.

Macy’s Inc. will pay a civil penalty of $175,000 to settle allegations the department-store operator engaged in unfair documentation practices against immigrant employees who had work authorizations during an eligibility reverification process, according to the Justice Department.

Two-and-a-half years ago, when Lara Logan was gang-raped by Egyptian Muslim democracy protesters, I wrote that Logan got a taste of the Islamic liberation she was cheering on at Tahrir Square. The whole world came down on me for daring to make this statement. I was attacked by bloggers (and fake journalists like new FOX News CNN-reject Howie Kurtz) on the left and on the right, all of whom apparently think Islam treats chicks with respect and that I should gush over this verbal-fellatio-to-Islamic-“democracy” Lara Logan and not call a spade a spade. This included the looks-challenged, calorically-gifted Jenn Taylor (this beast puts the “cow” in coward), who was then working for David Horowitz and is now an editor of Michelle Malkin’s self-masturbation site, Twitchy (which cheered on and whitewashed violent Muslim threats against me from around the world).

They attacked me for calling out Lara Logan’s endless broadcast fantasies about the democracy protesters of Tahrir Square, the reality of which was realized in her gang rape at their hands. I was also attacked in the New York Times by Maureen Dowd. And, afterward, Logan wouldn’t blame Islam, saying she didn’t know Muslim men rape women. Instead, she blamed just men, and compared her Egyptian rapists to American men. Now, there is yet another Western female reporter who’s been raped by Islamic “revolutionaries” in Tahrir Square. So sad, too bad. Not like she didn’t have a preview called Lara Logan and centuries of Islam.

No Tears for “Lara Logan, The Sequel”

Egyptian media reported Sunday that a Dutch journalist was raped by several men in Cairo’s Tahrir Square a few days ago. Dina Zakaria, a journalist reporting for the “Egypt 25” news channel affiliated with the January 25 revolution, shared the incident on her Facebook page Sunday: “A Dutch journalist in Tahrir was raped by men who dub themselves revolutionists. Her condition is severe and she is hospitalized.” Read the rest of this entry »

**** SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATE ****

Why is the top Obama Homeland Security official over deportation of illegal aliens lying under oath to Congress about an important immigration amnesty news story I broke on this site? That’s what Thomas Homan, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Executive Associate Director for Enforcement & Removal Operations (ERO), did Thursday when Congressman Kerry Bentivolio (R-Michigan) asked him about my article on ICE’s new policy of “reverse escorting” illegal aliens into America to prepare for amnesty. It happened at Thursday’s House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Hearing on “Border Security Oversight: Identifying and Responding to Current Threats.” The video is below, and the questions regarding this website begin at 14:30 (and go to around 18:03) into the video.

Earlier this week, I told you about Obama’s new Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) policy of “reverse escorting,” in which Obama sends ICE ERO’s immigration agents from northern border states to the southern border to pick up illegal alien juveniles caught sneaking into the border. The aliens are then housed at Bethany Christian Services locations and other charities throughout northern border states, where they are kept awaiting amnesty or use of DREAMer status. Normally, these illegal aliens–some of them OTMs (Other Than Mexicans)–are deported back to Mexico within 24 hours. But not anymore.

At Thursday’s hearing, Thomas Homan lied about this when Congressman Bentivolio mentioned he read my column on this website and asked about reverse escorting. Homan went on and on about with some BS about how the ICE immigration agents in Texas have exhausted overtime and so to “save money,” they fly ICE immigration agents from Michigan to Texas to get the illegal aliens and get them to “Health and Human Services” beds. This is baloney. Do you really think they are saving money or don’t have enough ICE immigration agents that haven’t exhausted overtime and that it is more economical and “saving money” to fly agents down to Texas from Michigan, then fly them back to Michigan WITH illegal aliens? PUH-LEEZE. Read the rest of this entry »

The new movie I liked best this week isn’t the one with a lot of hype. It’s a small Jason Statham film with release in fewer theaters. But all things are relative. Here’s what I thought of all the new releases, debuting in theaters this weekend:

* “White House Down“: I already saw this same movie in March. Then, it was called, “Olympus Has Fallen” (read my review). And although this retread of that plot is a little more fun, it’s also a lot more politically correct . . . annoyingly so.

In Olympus, there was a White, ideologically nondescript President. In this one, there is Barack Obama parading as Jamie Foxx parading as “President Sawyer.” But it’s definitely Obama. He’s pretentious, brings the troops home from Afghanistan, idiotically makes a deal to withdraw all U.S. troops from the entire Middle East, has a partially-read Nelson Mandela book sitting on his mantel in the White House residence, negotiates with Iran, and makes a peace treaty between Israel, France, Russia, the United States, and all Muslim nations, including Iran. Yup, we’re supposed to believe peace with Iran is possible if we only negotiate with them and pull all troops from the entire Middle East. Dumb. Oh, and we’re supposed to believe that the President sent investigators to Iran, and found “no nuclear weapons there,” as the movie tells us. Yeah, that’s the ticket. No Iranian nukes, no such aspirations. And if you believe that, I have some land in Tehran (or Hollywood) to sell ya.

Absolutely ridiculous is the plot point that the defense industry and “military-industrial complex” are behind the plot to take over the White House and kill the President because they don’t want the peace treaty to happen, as it will kill business for them. Riiiight. ‘Cuz that’s waaaaay more believable than terrorists being Muslims . . . which has never ever happened. The movie makes a point to tell you that the world and the media mistakenly believe it’s Arabs and Muslims, when it isn’t. ‘Cuz again, they would never ever be involved in terrorism. Never. Also, did I mention that the terrorists in the plot in this movie are “right-wing” domestic terrorists? They include a “right-wing sociopath,” a “Special Forces veteran of black ops,” and a man who shot up the Post Office because there are too many Blacks working there. The Speaker of the House, who is also in on it–and ends up being a major bad guy. He justifies his involvement in trying to kill the President by telling the President, “You’re selling this country out to the Arabs.” Yup, as if those of us who know that this current President (as did the one before him) is, in fact, doing that, would plot to bomb the White House and kill the Prez. Did Janet Napolitano (who went to the Washington screening of this movie) write this crap? Read the rest of this entry »

Last Friday, I wrote on this site that Paula Deen did something most Americans would never do: tell the truth in a sworn deposition. She admitted to privately using the N-word, when she could have lied about it. And, now, she’s paying the PC price. Still, in the week since then, I’ve grown less sympathetic to Paula Deen, even though she’s the victim of a double standard never applied to Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and Rev. Jeremiah Wright. That’s because I find her endless groveling and pandering to be utterly disgusting. Has she no shame? Or, more important, has she no pride and self-respect to stand up for herself? Apparently not. And, now, she’s allying with the ultimate arbiter of racism, race pimp Jesse Jackson. I guess this is in the “takes one to know one” category. Ditto for her latest defender, Al Sharpton. Both of these clowns have openly attacked Whites and Jews for decades, and, yet, no apologies, sponsor losses, or firings for them. Clearly, Miz’ Paula needs to get a tan . . . STAT.

My Tweet From Yesterday – Follow Me on Twitter . . .

Whoever is advising Ms. Deen in public relations is a moron. Her endless apology videos, her shameless crying episode on the “Today” show, and all of her continued Mea Culpa World Tour is a disaster. And it’s nauseating. Stand up for yourself, woman. Did she ever consider saying, “Hey, I answered honestly about something I could have lied about. I did this decades ago, and I said I’m sorry. And it’s time to move on. And it’s time for you to grill Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton and Jeremiah Wright–and the Obamas who sat in Wright’s racist, anti-Semitic, anti-American church for more than two decades–about what they said.” But the woman doesn’t have the guts and instead of calling the real racists out, she allies with them. Maybe they can open the Ebony and Ivory “No You Di’in’t” Soul Food Hut together. She should have told Matt Lauer off and ripped him a new posterior orifice, but instead she did an overwrought crying routine that is embarrassing. (She’s a crass woman with a history of being embarrassing.)

Paula Deen’s proven she’s just like everyone else in the entertainment biz, who will whore themselves out to remain on TV and in the public eye and save their fame from total destruction. She will say whatever she has to in order to appease the race merchants. And for that, she gets zero sympathy from me. None whatsoever. In fact, she’s turned herself into the biggest PC critic of Paula Deen that there is. And she can write her epitaph with that . . . and with her strange new alliances with America’s Black David Dukes. Read the rest of this entry »

This absurd, outrageous incident happened to an employee–now ex-employee–of Britain’s NHS, the UK version of Obamacare. But it could easily happen here (and already has), as America’s Muslim population continues to explode through immigration (legal AND illegal) and birthrate. Uber-political correctness to Islam (dhimmitude) is the order of the day now and has been for years. Note that the man did not even know this woman was Muslim.

Clive Hunt, a 58-year old IT consultant in Manchester, England, confronted this question head on earlier this month, when he offered to pick up “bacon sandwiches” during a meeting with a new client. That reportedly offended a Muslim co-worker – and soon after, Hunt says he was told he lost the job. According to a report in the Manchester Evening News, Hunt says a manager told him the decision was made because of his “racist remark.” Read the rest of this entry »

No tears from me over the death of Marc Rich, yesterday, at age 78. My only tears are over the fact that he will be buried in Israel, a place that should reject his dead body, just as Israeli charities should have rejected his blood money (but didn’t). The man was a JINO–Jew In Name Only–if there ever was one. The man was an embarrassment to America and an embarrassment to my religion.

If you can’t remember the name, Marc Rich, think of Bill Clinton giving pardons to criminals who sold out America . . . in exchange for campaign cash. Marc Rich and his ex-wife, Denise, were Exhibit A. Rich sold oil to Ayatollah Khomeini’s Iran when our American hostages were being held in captivity and tortured. He violated the embargo against the sale and was charged with tax evasion for it. He fled to Switzerland to avoid justice, and then farmed out Denise (size Double D breasts) to have twice a week, um, “sessions” with Bill Clinton and give Clinton mega-bucks in campaign contributions, which ultimately paid off in a Clinton pardon of Rich. Then-Deputy Attorney General Eric Holder was deeply involved and was the one who recommended this outrageous pardon.

Even aside from his illegal trade with Iran, Marc Rich made a career of trading with and enabling America’s worst enemies, Marxist-Communists and Muslim extremists. Marc Rich was an evil, venal man who sold out his country and his people and got away with it on earth. But he won’t get away with it in the afterlife. Here’s more from today’s Wall Street Journal obituary:

Marc Rich was a brash international commodities trader whose trading of oil with the revolutionary government of Iran while it held U.S. hostages in 1980 led U.S. authorities to charge him with tax evasion and trading with the enemy. Read the rest of this entry »

Meet the new Europe. It’s called the United States.

Yesterday, I was out of town, taking a deposition of an ICE official for one of several Department of Homeland Security agents I represent. And this morning, I was in court representing a wrongly accused person in a criminal matter. During both of those events, I thought to myself that, ultimately, the system works. And then, the Supreme Court splashed the cold water in my face yet again with its decision promoting–and, frankly, almost preferring–gays and gay marriage over everyone else. And we’re well on our way to the system completely breaking down, as is basically the case in Europe.

America is the new Europe. My late dad used to say that the Conservative sect of Judaism was like the Reform sect of Judaism, only ten years behind. Both are competing to become watered-down Judaism, so watered down that it is no longer Jewish at all. And so it goes with America. We are Europe, only ten years behind. Everything they do, we ultimately do, with equally disastrous consequences. Gay marriage is just the last straw. (Or is it? Why not legalized bestiality marriage or pedophile marriage, since they, too, are “born that way” and are “discriminated against?”)

They allow unlimited immigration of Muslims and others and lose their Western identity (and soon their countries). Now, we essentially do and lose ours. They allow women in combat and in all facets of their militaries. Now, we do. They allow open gays in the military. Now, we have that. They have Euro-trash socialist leaders. We have neo-Euro-trashian Barack Obama. They have “conservative” parties that are essentially liberal Democrats with capitalist views on business. That’s where the Republican Party is headed and is, in many ways, already there. They have single motherhood galore. Now, America has more than 42% of births born to single chicks. They have a growing population of the non-religious and newly atheist. We have that in spades now, too. And now we have gay marriage . . . just like in Europe. Read the rest of this entry »

I’ve learned a new term created by the immigration amnesty bill currently before the U.S. Senate: “Reverse Escorting.” If you want a preview of what “border security” will entail under Senators Boobio’s and Corkbrain’s amnesty bill, you should become familiar with reverse escorting.

DebbieSchlussel.com has exclusively learned from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents based in Michigan–and confirmed from ICE agents around the country–that the Obama administration is spending gazillions of your money to “reverse escort” illegal aliens caught at the border into the interior of the United States to await amnesty, rather than deporting them. ICE agents from northern border and interior states are being sent to southern border states like Texas to pick up “juvenile” illegal aliens caught sneaking into the border. Instead of deporting them, taxpayers are funding the escort of the illegal aliens to interior and northern border states to seek sanctuary in churches and other such locations while awaiting the passage of amnesty. Again, the practice is called, “reverse escorting.”

Outraged ICE agents in Grand Rapids, Michigan, for example, say that ICE’s “Enforcement and Removal Operations” (ERO) is sending each of their immigration agents down to Brownsville, Texas at least once or twice a week to pick up the illegal alien juveniles that have been caught because–the excuse goes–“there is no place to house them down there” (when they shouldn’t be “housed,” they should be DEPORTED). The ICE agents say that there is currently a huge influx of unaccompanied juveniles on the Southwest border because they think amnesty is coming. The ICE immigration agents are ordered to bring the illegal aliens up to Grand Rapids and to other American cities far north of the Texas border, so that the aliens can be lodged with charities while they await the passage of immigration amnesty. As one disgusted ICE agent said, “Our tax dollars at work again.” Read the rest of this entry »

I like Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele of Comedy Central’s Key & Peele because they’re politically incorrect on all counts and make fun of everyone. I’ve posted their videos before on this site (here and here). And this one is very funny and a great statement on the Black culture of “unique” kids’ names. (I have a great post on that coming up soon. Stay tuned.)
