Stalker Boy Sam Aguilar got his start in anything-for-a-buck anti-enforcement lobby with the Coca-Cola-funded GALEO. Then he moved on up to the Mark Zuckerburg Billionaires -R-Us cheap wage, pro-amnesty FWDus as State Director for Georgia. But today he is “Work Force Development Director” for a smaller, apparently local, “we are victims” outfit called Cornersoutreach.org . This was not a upward move. We don’t think he quit FWDus. For a young, arrogant, leftist activist against immigration enforcement, a gig with FWDus is a very good job.

We like to think that the supervisors at FWDus finally read one of my explanations (here and here as examples) of who this character really is and what he really does in the Georgia Capitol.

But maybe not. Maybe they realized this hotshot was spending much of his time frantically fabricating smears on Twitter as @SamAguilarATL

Note for beginners: It’s FWD.us but @FWDus on Twitter

I only realized the job change today looking for something else. We approve. FWDus doesn’t seem to like us or our pro-enforcement work. They blocked us. No worries. So did Georgia’s Republican Attorney General, Chris Carr.

I just saw Stalker Boy (and pal of Dalton’s Senator Chuck Payne ) Thursday at the most recently formed state House committee ( see “press“) on how to make mo’ money and life easier for “immigrants” in Georgia meeting at Piedmont Technical College. I will write that adventure up for Tuesday at Insider Advantage Georgia. If you aren’t subscribed, it’s well worth the small subscription cost. Update: The write up is also here.

Anyway – Hooray for Stalker Boy!

Update: I forgot to explain the Sen Chuck Payne reference.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Georgia’s “unauthorized population” is 380,000 according to the liberal AJC in a front page July weeper (‘Pandemic brings more hardships for Georgia’s unauthorized immigrants’ ) the hard copy headline was “Many unauthorized residents risk eviction. It was the usual Victims R-Us, boiler plate goop about an illegal alien who lost the job she scored illegally (with a fake or stolen SSN) and now her family fears eviction because they cannot get unemployment, yada-yada.

The woman, who doesn’t speak English fluently, is from Mexico. She requested anonymity because she lacks legal status to be in this country. Since losing her job during the pandemic, she’s gotten financial help from a church and a grant from the Latin American Association of Atlanta (LAA), but the aid hasn’t been nearly enough to cover all the rent her family owes.

Read it if you want. Don’t worry if you don’t have time. There will be more in the AJC pipeline.

The story came complete with added info in an insert on the state’s “unauthorized population” and “Industries in which they work.” We had to smile at the inventiveness of the AJC editors in their endless agenda-push. As you can see in the photo of the insert below, the AJC is telling readers that 30% of the victims of borders work in construction. Another 15% work in the very wide category of “Professional, management, administrative and…waste management services.”

 

I am pals with the crew the picks up our trash here at El Rancho King every week. I look forward to telling them the AJC editors put them in the same general occupational category as doctors and lawyers. Too funny.

Anyway, in the following Sunday (August 1, 2021) edition – next to an opinion piece “Findings detail government roots of racist housing rules” – the AJC filled a space at the bottom of the Metro section with another insert again alerting readers to their contrived occupational breakdown of the blackmarket labor – but this time the label for the illegal aliens is “unauthorized workers in Georgia.”

Apparently, in one week all illegal aliens in the state became workers. Even the kids and housewives?

I read this crazy bill in March and started an outline which is unfinished. But I am finally posting this now to get it out of my pending file. I will write it up as a column soon. If we still have a country by then.

We regard this legislation as a campaign vehicle for Bee Nguyen who is running to be Sec. of State in Georgia. It is designed to build her support in the immigrant community and with anchor baby voters and not a serious attempt at passage.

So far no Republican cosponsors.

 

If you want to see what the L.A. Times reporter in the south (now a NY Times reporter here in Atlanta) wrote about Tennessee’s 2004 adventure in “driving cards” for illegal aliens see below.

Tennessee Ends Cards for Immigrant Drivers – Richard Faussett. Here.

Notes:

 

Lum Law Group http://www.lumlawgroup.com/what-is-a-form-220b-order-of-supervision/  – The form 220b is an “Order of Supervision.”

 

To be “under an order of supervision” is similar to being “on parole” in that the alien who receives it is “charged” with something (usually a crime, such as “unlawful presence”) and “ordered” to obey certain orders.

 

Form 220b is for aliens who are in custody or have been ordered removed by an immigration judge during their removal proceedings.
