3 – Trump’s State Dept. Draws Up List of Cartels to Be Labeled Terrorist Groups
From the New York Times: The Trump administration plans to designate more than a half-dozen criminal groups with roots in Latin America as foreign terrorist organizations, said six U.S. officials with knowledge of the imminent action.

The move, to be carried out by the State Department, follows an executive order President Trump signed on Jan. 20 calling for a crackdown on major cartels. The designation is expected to be applied to eight groups, said three of the officials, though the list could change before a public announcement. The officials who spoke for this article did so on the condition of anonymity to talk about an action that has not been made public yet.

The executive order called for the designations, saying the cartels “constitute a national-security threat beyond that posed by traditional organized crime” and that the United States would “ensure the total elimination” of the groups.

Mr. Trump gave Secretary of State Marco Rubio two weeks to make the designations in consultation with several other cabinet members. The criminal groups and their members could be labeled foreign terrorist organizations or specially designated global terrorists, according to the order. The designations mean the U.S. government can impose broad economic sanctions on the groups and on people or entities linked to them.

Mexican president responds… with a threat!

From AA.com: Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said Friday that Mexico would expand its lawsuit against US gun companies if drug cartels are designated as terrorist organizations.

After The New York Times reported that the US is planning to designate five Mexican drug cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs), Sheinbaum suggested that Mexico would have to broaden its current legal battle against gun manufacturers responsible for arming criminal groups in the country.

“If they were to decree organized crime groups as terrorists, we would have to expand the lawsuit in the US because then, as the Department of Justice itself has already recognized that 74% of the weapons of criminal groups come from the US, how would the gun shops and distributors be left with the decree?” she said during her morning press conference.


4 – Skyrocketing healthcare budget for illegal immigrants haunts blue state taxpayers`
From Fox News: A California budget official revealed this week that taxpayers in the Democrat-run state are paying billions of dollars more on healthcare for illegal immigrants than previously known.

Guadalupe Manriquez, the California Department of Finance program budget manager, told the state Assembly Budget Committee Monday the state is “spending $9.5 billion total funds” to “cover undocumented individuals in Medi-Cal” in the current year.

Manriquez explained that this is a “revised number based on the governor’s budget-updated estimates,” adding the earlier figure was from the earlier “budget act.”

“Of the $9.5 billion, $8.4 billion is general fund,” she said.

Republican Assemblyman Carl DeMaio noted that the cost of healthcare for illegal immigrants could be enough to help solve some of the state’s budget woes and “avoid going into the rainy day fund,” The Center Square reported. He said the number originally floated was roughly $6 billion.


5 – Newsom backs away from ICE fight as Bondi goes after blue states
From the Washington Examiner: Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) said he plans to veto a bill in California that would limit state prison officials’ cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers.

Newsom said California’s “sanctuary” law is the right course of action to balance the state building trust with immigrant communities while giving the federal government the room to deport undocumented criminals in prison, according to a Politico report. His action comes as Attorney General Pam Bondi said the Department of Justice was suing Illinois and New York for their sanctuary laws.

A Newsom spokesperson confirmed that he plans to reject Assembly Bill 15 if it passes. Newsom vetoed a similar bill last year.

Assembly Bill 15, which was introduced by a Democrat, would expand the “sanctuary” law, SB 54, to include the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.


6 – Indian Government Hides Flood of H-1B Migrants from U.S. Media
From Breitbart: When in India, Indian officials openly say that large-scale Indian migration into the United States is a foundational priority for India.

But when in the United States, India’s officials prefer to hide their priority under media chatter about tariffs on Harley Davidson motorcycles, possible purchases of Lockheed Martin weaponry, and their post-November eagerness to accept the return of a few of the many Indian illegal migrants in the United States.

“People-to-people exchanges constitute the bedrock of our deepening ties with the United States,” Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar told India’s Parliament on February 6. “Indeed, more than any other relationship, mobility, and migration have had a key role to play,’” he said as he explained why India’s government was not offended by President Donald Trump’s brusque return of 104 Indian illegal migrants.

But India’s problem is that a growing number of Americans strongly oppose India’s economic strategy of moving millions of Indians into U.S. white-collar and blue-collar workplaces and communities.

The population transfer has so far delivered at least four million Indians via multiple routes. Since 1990, that inflow has forcefully displaced millions of American graduates, transformed the management and staff of many famous tech companies and Fortune 500 names, and crippled U.S. innovation — without any serious pushback from elected politicians.
