Roberts on Young Conservatives. “Not exactly a stretch for the party of Obama and Hillary.”Dennis Michael Lynch noted that on Monday night “the DNC aided and abetted two illegal aliens” and “twice violated Section 8 U.S. Code 1324.“As Robert Gehl noted on The Federalist Papers, “The law makes it a felony to ‘conceal’ or ‘harbor’ any ‘alien’ ‘including any means of transportation.’ The penalty is five years in prison (ten years if it was done for ‘commercial advantage or private financial gain,’ and an argument could be made for that).”Lynch noted that the convention first hosted Karla Ortiz, 11, who was joined by her mother, Francisca. Prior to their arrival on stage, a video of Karla Ortiz with Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton showed the girl telling Clinton that her mother had received an official letter of deportation but that they were staying in the United States regardless.“Clearly, the mother is ignoring the deportation order,” and so too are the DNC and Clinton, Lynch wrote.The girl addressed the convention in English; the mother in Spanish. Both spoke about how unfair the system was that they could be deported.After their presentation, Astrid Silva spoke to the convention.“I came to America illegally with my mother when I was 4 years old. We crossed the river on a raft,” she said. What she did not say at the convention was that she had worked for President Barack Obama’s campaign in 2012 and as an activist in support of illegal immigrants.“Completely ridiculous,” Roberts added. “Progressives try to push their agenda by feeding off the emotions of the weak, and unfortunately, it often times works. You can’t care about America while claiming you’ll put people out of work, or by keeping illegals in the country.” 4951
