-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
Democratic Illinois Rep. Delia Ramirez, who previously said she is a Guatemalan first before an American, described U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as a “terrorist organization” at an event Aug. 8.
Summary and audio linked here.
Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

Expect no retraction or apology. This what they do.
The state’s existing buyout program for its own pensions is the precedent for Chicago, which should be a warning: Look out for similar exaggerated claims and shoddy analysis.

And what did you tell Joe Abraham you coward accessory. Go Home and take the murderer with you.
At the very least, I think her opinions as a congresswoman should now have less value after her infamous proclamation of being a Guatemalan first and American second.
A sad story but we can’t blame her for being ignorant and unaware of the laws of America. After the tragedy of 911, Congress passed the Homeland Security Act of 2002. That bill passed with a commanding majority in the House. In the Senate, ninety senafors voted in the affirmative. Included with the passage of that bill was the creation of ICE. ICE is the law! The Illinoisans who voted her into office should be ashamed. She should be deported immediately.
Unfortunately she can’t be deported; she is a anchor baby.
Now that’s an interpretation that needs to be corrected: birthright citizenship. The 14th amendment was written to provide citizenship to children of slaves, not to create anchor babies for illegals.
When is the US going to remove elected officials who publicly state that they support foreign countries over the US? She’s not the only one.
kind of like trump & russia?
Alas, this turned out to be an Clinton/Obama/Brennan/Clapper hoax. Yep. They have the receipts, documents written in the conspirators’ own hand.
Rough for you libs who so desperately wanted it to be true. Maybe get help.
The libs don’t have a place to go for real news anymore so they are reading WP. Apparently even the left has decided MSM is not worth their time. Maybe they will learn something here.
The lefties desperately huddle around their TV as if it were a campfire, anxiously awaiting their fix of DNC talking points to prop up their rapidly collapsing world view.
One would think an immigrant who escaped a country that afforded its citizens little opportunity would embrace the US, where there’s endless possibility for anyone willing to get after it. Yes, rising income disparity must be addressed but this is the wealthiest country on earth by far and not because of her ideas. Why she’d preach oppression and support illegal immigration rather than entrepreneurial-ship, education, creating opportunities is anyone’s guess but she’s about as wrong for her current and hopefully short lived job as it gets. Vote her out.
The assault on police (except their own bodyguards of course) will not stop with this kind of rhetoric. It is sad they represent this state. Let’s get back to respecting ALL people – like the leftist have on all of their signs in their yard. Let’s get back to respecting our laws in this country.
Matt Walsh did a great segment on this reprobate.
Ramirez is a shining diamond to the communist Democrat Party and globalists . She will help them achieve their agenda of dissolving America and turning it into a communist country. Ramirez needs be put under the microscope of the Trump administration.
Founding Fathers never imagined there would be sitting Congressmen (let alone women) that so thoroughly despise America.
nor did they ever imagine a president who ignores laws, the judicial system and the constitution
Agreed. Obama was a stain on the republic.
That goes double for Autopen.
She needs to be removed
First look in the mirror before you refer to Law Enforcement as a Terrorist Org you phony. Go back to Guatemala. Sorry these people just need to go and improve their own Sh*tH*ole country before they come here and tell the US how to run things. I am ashamed this woman represents IL.
Can’t take this Guatemalan seriously. She has identified herself as a foreign agent.
Time to deport her illegal parents.
And her husband, and all others foolish enough to declare themselves illegal out loud and dare us to enforce the law. These people are malcontents, seeking to “ re- imagine “America , people. If you think all their talk of colonialism and reparations ( intended for the folks that didn’t sneak across the border to include them on the bandwagon ) are merely for show and not about taking over, you’re mistaken.
