federal crime. it is beyond my ability to understand why it is that merrick garland and his department of justice haven t investigated and prosecuted these crimes. and i hereby call on them to do so. if they re unwilling to do this, they re really imperilling our entire system of government, and they need to be held accountable. jason: you know, the u.s. marshal for the supreme court has sent a letter to the states of virginia and maryland asking them to pay attention to this and enforce the law are, but this is really it s a federal statute. and there you have federal officers watching this go on, and it is a crime. that s right. it is a crime, and it s telling here that you ve got this request being made by a federal official to state officials. now, i know that maryland may have such a law, i know that virginia does have a law analogous to 18usc section 1507. but it s strange that a federal official would have to ask a state official to go and enforce

accusations that started this as to the veracity. first of all, the whistle-blower who apparently was not on the call advised the icig that he or she was concerned that the president s conduct constituted under title 50 usc section 3033, quote, a serious problem, abuse or violation of law or executive order, end quote. again, to be clear. you didn t hear a violation of law or executive order as you listened to the call? sir, i made no judgment about any illegal conduct occurring. the whistle-blower also reported in starting this inquiry asserted that the that president trump, quote, sought to pressure the ukrainian leadership to take actions to help the president s 2020 re-election bid. president trump does not mention 2020 during the call, does he?
there are laws on the books that a smart leader at doj could utilize to stop the caravan mod madness. what are the laws? any person who knowingly brings or just attempted to bring in an alien has committed a crime punishable by up to ten years in prison. anyone who encourages or induces an alien to come or enter and reside in the united states illegally can be jailed for up to five years. and someone who aids or abets people committing either of the above acting can be jailed for five years. by the way, it gets better. 18usc section 1325 even invokes the possibility of the death penalty for those whose actions result in the death of any person while violating the governing immigration law. jeff sessions dropped the ball on this issue. a new ag must not.
