We are informed that metro-Atlanta’s Cobb County Republican Party has passed a resolution rebuking Gov. Brian Kemp (R) for his silence on Georgia’s illegal immigration crisis.

“Governor Kemp has betrayed President Trump, pro-enforcement voters, and since becoming Chief Executive has defiantly ignored illegal immigration and his related campaign pledges” goes the Cobb resolution reportedly passed in a special meeting held on Saturday at party headquarters in Marietta. We are told the recent county convention ended before resolutions could be considered – thus Saturday’s special meeting.

The text of the Kemp resolution (see below) sent here by CCRP officials matches the draft we created and distributed in April. We are waiting for a promised signed copy of the document as passed.

Cobb Republicans recently elected new leadership and the organization has apparently undergone a notable change on what is allowed as “an issue.” We applaud the new direction. We are ecstatic that Kemp has been noted for his #BigTruckTrick.

There is more to this story and from what we understand, people to thank include Resolution Committee Chairman Michael Optiz, Resolution Committee member Hugh Norris, Cobb’s Jan Barton and CCRP Chair Salliegh Grubbs. We are hopeful the matter will be part of the upcoming Republican state convention. In answer to the question “on what issue is Georgia’s liberal media happy to assist Republican politicians? – we do not look for much (any) Georgia traditional media coverage of the Cobb resolution.

Republican Brian Kemp lost Cobb County to Stacey Abrams in 2018. According to Migration Policy Institute, Cobb ranks fourth in its population of illegal aliens in Georgia. As the resolution notes, the state is home to more illegal aliens than Arizona. The newly elected Cobb sheriff recently ended the 2007 287(g) agreement with ICE. Kemp was silent. Kemp’s announced Republican primary challengers are as mum on the state crisis as he is.

Brian Kemp’s Track and Deport Plan

 

 

 

 

 

Georgia Gov Brian Kemp on illegal immigration (and the border), May 14, 2021 920-ish days after the 2018 campaign: “Well, we’re not seeing any impact right, right now. You know, we’re laser, laser focused on that issue, from our state government perspective.” 

To keep up (and remember):

Letter from a retired federal immigration agent and most of our Brian Kemp file here.

For those who have not caught on yet, the game has been to totally ignore the crisis. But now with Biden making it worse at the border, Kemp is still ignoring it in Georgia but hoping voters will focus on the border and forget his promises and not find out that that multiple state laws in place aimed at illegal immigration – some of which he voted for as state senator – are treated as optional. Just one example? Try this.

Just before 9:00 AM, and after I saw that Georgia Gov Brian Kemp was to be an on air guest at WDUN -AM radio, I sent out three tweets yesterday tagging Gov Kemp and radio host (and former Kemp administration staffer) Martha Zoller in hopes Martha would ask Kemp about his campaign pledges. That is not what happened, but she did bring up the border and asked Georgia’s governor if we were seeing “an impact” in Georgia and what we should do about it. Keep in mind that Georgia is already home to more illegal aliens than Arizona. In his bizarre response to Zoller, Kemp told Zoller Georgia is not seeing any impact and assured Zoller – and listeners that the state government over which he is Chief Executive is “laser focused” on “that issue.”

My Tweets below. Under that a transcript and audio of the relevant segment of the Martha Zoller Show yesterday morning – and a link to the podcast so you can hear the entire show. I called in later and made the mistake of allowing a pause in my remarks…the topic was again shifted to the border. BTW, who is the Biden supporter co-host?

 

 

Podcast here.

It’s the top of the 9:00AM show segment.

 

Start at 05:42-ish.

Transcript from Rev.com

Host, Martha Zoller:           Well, you have a long history, uh, about, uh, immigration enfo- re- [00:06:00] enforcement. In 2006, you chaired the Public Safety Committee, when you were State Senator. Um, you’ve been to the border recently. We had a question that came in about your concerns, or what is going to happen related to I- illegal immigration, with all the people that are coming through the border and are part of this whole, um, catch-and-release, and this sort of thing. W- are we seeing an impact in Georgia, number one? And number two, what should we do about it?

Brian Kemp:                                        Well, we’re not seeing any impact right, right now, [00:06:30] in Georgia. We’ve got our … You know, we’re laser, laser focused on that issue, from our state government perspective. But you know that’s gonna filter our way. I mean, it is, it is outrageous what’s going on at the border, and either the President and the Vice President … who’s in charge of the border crisis now … either doesn’t have a clue as to what’s going on, or they just don’t care.

Um, much different when I went down there just a few weeks ago, than when I was there in December. Um, just the, the message [00:07:00] that the Biden administration had, of, of inviting people to illegal en- illegally enter this country, is just … I mean, it’s a terrible policy. And why they cannot realize this … I mean, record number of apprehensions on the border. And I can promise you, Martha, if there was more people there policing, from a Border Patrols perspective, or other law enforcement, it would be even higher than it is.

I mean, these cartels have gone from not only smuggling drugs across, but they’re smuggling people [00:07:30] and, you know, goods, and, and other things. And, you know, they’re smart. And they know that if they’re close to getting caught, all they’ve got to do is start throwing people in the river that can’t swim, and the Border Patrol agents, or the Texas, uh, State Patrol, is going to have to go save those people. And while that distraction’s going on … And they cause these distract- distractions on purpose.

They’re floating a homemade barge with a, you know, a, a small, you know, compact pick-up full of drugs, across the river, and driving [00:08:00] it in- inland. And we know that those drugs and that contraband, uh, is going to end up in the State of Georgia at some point, or the … around the rest of the country. And that’s not to mention the, the human trafficking and other things that are going on, on, on the border. And it, it is … it’s just unbelievable, how different it is, and …

You know, we need all to continue to press the administration to take some action. I certainly have been doing that.

Host, Martha Zoller:           Governor Bryan Camp, thanks so much for your time today. Good news yesterday about the masks. [00:08:30] It seems like we- we never have a week with a slow news week, but it’s going to be, uh, it’s going to be a great week. Thanks for being with us today.

 

 

Corporate-funded Georgia group joins discredited SPLC in lawsuit against Georgia’s 2021 election reform law

 

Is this “racist?” Isn’t this what was regarded as “restricted” in the old America?

To be a considered as a possible member group in the Latino Community Fund in Atlanta (Decatur) the requirements are built around being Hispanic/Latino. It seems exclusionary.

The below is from the “Members and Partners” page on the LTC website.

“Membership in the Latino Community Fund (LCF Georgia) is open to Latino community organizations and nonprofits 501(c)(3), 501 (c)(5) and 501(c)(6) in the state of Georgia providing direct programs and services in the areas of health, education, immigration, civic engagement, advocacy, economic empowerment, and arts and culture.

 Associate membership is also open to specific programs of nonprofits 100% led, advised, and serving Latinos. Projects and initiatives led by these programs may also receive programmatic grant funding.

 Organizations interested in membership, need to fill out this survey and meet two out of the three following criteria:

– Be Latino-led (Executive Director or CEO)
– Be governed by a majority Latino board of directors
– Serve a majority Latino client population”

 Note, if an aspiring collective can only meet one of the above ethnocentric requirements they can apply to become a “partner.”

Think of these characters as a collective of anti-enforcement collectives – including GALEO Inc. See for yourself.

We noted the LCF Georgia several years ago when their leader, Gigi Pedraza, had an anti-enforcement guest column in a liberal Atlanta news outlet. Pedraza is apparently still working on abolishing Georgia’s E-Verify law which often sees compliance but seldom sees media coverage.

A July, 2019 Insider Advantage Georgia entry:

“From the “that’s pretty much the point” department: Georgia’s E-Verify law represents a challenge for illegal aliens who want to open a business and be more visible in Georgia. This critical analysis comes from the executive director and founder of an ethnic-based Decatur group headed by Gigi Pedraza.

 The post is worth a read to see what she gets wrong.

The Latino Community Fund is sponsored by many of the usual corporate suspects in grievance organizing  – Coca Cola, Georgia Power, Wells Fargo, Univision, Tides Foundation, the discredited SPLC, Delta airlines, Telemundo et al. You can see a full list on the bottom of this page.

Board Director? – Rudy Beserra, former VP of Latin Affairs for the Coca-Cola Company.

To round out the education on the (restricted) Latino Community Fund in Georgia, it helps to know that the group has joined the hate mongers at the Southern Poverty Law Center in a lawsuit against Georgia’s 2021 election law.
