Anatomy of a Blackout -- Glenn Spencer

Thursday morning I arose about 3 a.m to do the finishing touches on the presentation. We left the hotel about 7:30 for the 9 am conference. Traffic, made worse by vendor trucks rushing to get their stuff into D.C. before roads were closed for the inauguration, was horrible. As we drove past hundreds and hundreds of porta-potties and lines of tents set up for the Jan. 20th shindig, I worried that we wouldn't arrive on time. We did, with ten minutes to spare.

The Holeman Lounge at the Press Club is very impressive (and expensive), and we had a 60" plasma TV for the presentation. We had four large posters (cost - $600) with incredible graphics. Everything was perfect as I put a stack of professionally prepared press packages on a table near the entrance

We were ready.

But no one came. Not one member of the press or media showed up. There were friends in the audience, but no reporters to get the story.

I gave the presentation anyway and our friends agreed that the story was probably too important to be told to the public. That is why we were blacked out. (There were two black ladies present and they were very upset to learn that the government has known where drugs were being smuggled into the U.S. and could have stopped it years ago, but didn't.)

I was very disappointed at the total lack of a turnout, and a little depressed – what a waste of American Border Patrol's money. But after thinking about it, I have decided it was a good investment after all. ABP had paid for airtight proof that it is being blacked out by the media.

Looking back over the past year I now realize that the press blackout of ABP has been going on for some time.

In January of last year I traveled to Washington, D.C. to present ABP's year-end report on the border.

At one point I spent an hour with Jerry Seper in his Washington Times office. Seper told me that the paper would no doubt run a big story on American Border Patrol's work. It never happened. In fact, they never even mentioned us.

In the past year ABP was visited by Radio France

Talkback on Logistics Management

House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman Jim Oberstar (D-MN), who is sponsoring a bi-partisan bill in Congress to eliminate the pilot project, expressed his outrage at the latest move by FMCSA saying, “The Secretary of Transportation continues to flout the will of Congress… just days after the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure has approved a bi-partisan bill to hold DOT to its original plan and terminate this pilot program after one year, the FMCSA announces its intent to extend this program for two more years. It also made the announcement on the first day of the Congressional recess. That is certainly no coincidence.”

The plan to allow Mexican-domiciled carriers into the U.S. has been criticized and challenged in court repeatedly by public advocacy groups as well as the Teamsters Union. Congress has tried multiple times to shut down the program but has not been successful. (Notice, January 4) The DOT has argued that they have met every stipulation that Congress set forward in the appropriations bill last May and thus is free to continue the pilot for up to three years.

FMCSA is facing vocal opposition from within its own party as well. House Transportation and Infrastructure Ranking Member John Mica (R-FL) said of the extension, “I am for open and fair trade, but what passed in NAFTA opened our highways to Mexican trucks and Congress must act to stop both Mexican trucks and contaminated foods from entering the country.”

Chairman Oberstar commented that “When Congress reconvenes in September, I intend to move our bill as quickly as possible, and make certain that the voice of Congress is heard loud and clear at the Department of Transportation, and that this program is finally shut down.”

A NEWT ONE- THE TRUTH SURGE!

  • John Ward taught in the department in the 2002-03 school year. Of Latino heritage despite his Anglo-sounding name, Ward was all for more thoroughly integrating the contributions of Mexican-Americans into U.S. history. But once he started teaching, he became concerned about the program's focus on victimization.

    "They really wanted to identify the victimizer, which was the dominant group — in this case white America — and they wanted students to have a revolution against upper-class white America," says Ward, who now works as a state auditor.

    "They had a clear message that political departments in the U.S. are arms of the dominant culture designed to keep minorities in the ghetto and to keep them downtrodden. They're teaching on the taxpayers' dime that police officers and teachers are trying to keep them down. What a perverse message to teach these kids."

    Such messages, he says, won't be found in the program's textbooks, such as "Occupied America."

    "The department doesn't look bad on paper. It's what happens verbally that moves the debate from benign to pernicious," Ward says.
  • During a recent presentation, a student noted, "Even a game of chess can reflect the inequalities of our society. From way back, white always goes first."

    Teacher Jose Gonzalez nodded approvingly. "That's deep. That's powerful."
