I posted a while back about the CCP bringing over Chinese women to have babies on U.S. soil who become automatic citizens, which SCOTUS agreed with as legal. That has to be one of the dumbest decisions ever; it doesn’t take a genius to figure out the future consequences. Sometimes SCOTUS lives in a secluded world and loses sight of common sense.
China is working hard to attack us from within and doing a darn good job of it as we sit back and take the abuse. It is time to act and be strong with common sense. All IMO.
“Federal prosecutors said Wednesday they disrupted one of the biggest marriage fraud rings in U.S. history that orchestrated more than 1,000 bogus unions over a decade in the hopes of getting green cards.
Officials said the ring earned tens of millions of dollars, charging up to $100,000 to arrange sham marriages for Chinese citizens and paying up to $30,000 for Americans willing to marry them.
Eleven people — 10 of them naturalized citizens and the other a legal permanent resident — were named in the newly unsealed indictment.
Authorities described the remarkable steps the outfit went to, including fabricating photos to try to make it look like wedding ceremonies were held, opening joint accounts for the so-called couples and purchasing life insurance.
The goal, prosecutors said, was to create a false history to fool immigration authorities.
The outfit also would coach its customers on how to survive the scrutiny from Department of Homeland Security officials.
It helped arrange prenuptial agreements that, in some cases, gave away the sham nature of the unions.
In one instance, the prenuptial agreement provided that “except in the name of husband and wife, both parties live independently and must not interfere with each other.”
When one of the U.S. citizens started demanding closer ties to her husband, such as money to buy food, one of the organizers ordered that she be set straight.
“You remind her that this is a business transaction, and he is not her real husband,” warned Amy Cheng, the lead defendant in the case.
U.S. citizens were paid in installments, with the first $10,000 payment coming after the marriage and initial green card application, another $15,000 when a conditional green card arrived, and a final $5,000 payment when the migrant was granted full lawful permanent status.
The outfit arranged for divorces once the point of the scam — a full green card — was in hand.
“These schemes have real costs. They rob our country of the ability to know who should be, and who should not be, allowed into America,” Attorney General Todd Blanche said in announcing the indictment.”
