WATCH What Democrat Senator Said When Told Illegals ‘Broke the Law’

A top U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) official patiently explained to “confused” Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) during a Senate hearing Tuesday that illegal immigrants do, in fact, break U.S. laws when they enter the country illegally.

“Would you send your child to the [family detention centers]?” Hirono (pictured left above) asked ICE’s Executive Associate Director for Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) Matthew T. Albence during a hearing with the Senate Committee on the Judiciary.

Albence told Hirono, “Again, I think we’re missing the point. These individuals are there because they have broken a law.”

But Hirono interrupted, bizarrely insisting that the illegal immigrants being held in the detention centers “have broken a law only as deemed so by” President Donald Trump.

“No ma’am,” Albence fired back. “They are there for violation of Title 8 of the U.S. Nationality Act. Okay. U.S.C. 1325. That’s illegal entry is both a criminal and civil violation. They are in those FRCs pending the outcome of that civil immigration process. They have broken the law. ”

After continuing to struggle grasping the basic concept that illegal aliens have broken U.S. immigration laws, Hirono said she was “confused.”

‘Confused’ by the most basic immigration laws? A senior member of a Senate committee in charge of immigration legislation?

Oakland hunger strike starts national rally against Trump immigration policy

In the shadow of the federal building named for late Congressman and Oakland Mayor Ron Dellums, a fierce advocate for civil rights, seven Bay Area residents have spent the better part of two days abstaining from food in protest of immigrant children detained and separated from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border. And the hunger pangs are only just beginning.

Sitting in a semicircle of lawn chairs in the courtyard of the Ronald V. Dellums Federal Building and U.S. Courthouse in Oakland, the people abstaining from food — four parents, a nurse and two “concerned community members” — clutch canteens of water and chat.

Dozens injured as two trains collide near Peru's Machu Picchu citadel

At least 23 people have been injured as two passenger trains heading to the famed 15-th century ruins in Peru's Cusco Region collided on Tuesday. Many of the people hurt in the crash are reported to be foreign tourists.

A Peru Rail train bumped into the rear of an Inca Rail train several dozen kilometers from the world-famous tourist attraction near the town of Ollantaytambo on Tuesday morning at around 9 a.m.

While police have launched an investigation into the incident, there have been reports the collision was provoked by a group of protesters who were refusing to leave the tracks.

'Doomsday weapon’: How could the West respond to Russia’s nuclear underwater drone?

US and British navies could counter Russia’s nuclear-powered autonomous torpedo, Poseidon, by using undersea sensors and anti-submarine aircraft, writes Covert Shores website. But is this really a viable tactic?

The development of the Poseidon unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV), originally known as ‘Status-6’, was first mentioned in November 2015. Western media later dubbed the submarine drone a doomsday weapon.

On March 1, 2018, Russian President Vladimir Putin officially confirmed the weapon’s existence in his annual address to the Federal Assembly.

“We have developed unmanned submersible vehicles that can move at great depths – I would say extreme depths – intercontinentally, at a speed multiple times higher than the speed of submarines, cutting-edge torpedoes and all kinds of surface vessels,” said Putin.

It is reported that the main goal of the torpedo is to deliver a thermonuclear warhead to enemy shores in order to destroy important coastal infrastructure and industrial objects, as well as ensure massive damage to the enemy’s territory by subjecting vast areas to radioactive tsunamis and other devastating consequences of a nuclear explosion.

Another potential use for the Poseidon torpedo is to strike US aircraft carrier battle groups.
