Polish Nationals Caught Trying to Procure Fake Identification in New Mexico

I guess being concerned about this makes me a hater of brown people:

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Three Polish nationals are in federal custody Friday night after federal authorities said they were trying to get New Mexico driver’s licenses illegally.

The trio were caught last week at a Motor Vehicle Division office in Albuquerque when a clerk thought the stamp on Rafal Marzec’s birth certificate didn’t look right, according to Michael Sandoval of the New Mexico Motor Vehicle Division.

“Our clerks are becoming more and more familiar with some of the techniques that are trying to be used, so they’re pretty much able to look at documents and view that,” said Sandoval.

Agents were called in and interviewed Marzec and Piotr Stelmach. According to court documents, both men told the agents that they contacted Jaroslaw Kowalczyk through an ad in a Polish-language newspaper in the Chicago area promising to get New Mexico driver’s licenses for those in the U.S. illegally in exchange for $1,000.

I’d usually end with something like “ready for that fence yet?” but let’s be honest, it’s too late for that. The borders are open and no one knows exactly who is coming through. Europeans sneaking over the Mexican border should raise many alarms for people given Al-Qaeda’s strategy of using “westerners” as operatives. Get prepared.

Glenn Hubbard: American Economy “Close to a Destructive Tipping Point”

The co-author of Seeds of Destruction: Why the Path to Economic Ruin Runs Through Washington, and How to Reclaim American Prosperity gives a depressing interview in which we’re basically told to abandon all hope. Granted Hubbard does claim we can turn this around if we act “soon” but he knows that isn’t going to happen, so we’re doomed to declining standards of living for the next few decades.
