No Sheeples Here is reporting that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency has decided to refrain from any action regarding Obama's aunt to avoid negative publicity.
A newly disclosed federal document obtained by The Associated Press reveals that a directive from Immigration and Customs Enforcement expressed concerns about "negative media or congressional interest" in the illegal immigration of President Obama’s aunt, Zeituni Onyango. "A hold on any actions to proceed with arrest will be placed in the case file until I can review the case and evaluate the impact of the potential media or congressional interest," wrote the assistant field operations director for immigrant detention and removal.
The directive made clear that U.S. officials worried about possible election implications of arresting Zeituni Onyango, who at the time was living in public housing in Boston. She is now believed to be living in Cleveland.
Auntie Zeituni traveled to Washington last week for her nephew's inauguration. News organizations observed her attending an inaugural ball with her immigration lawyer, Margaret Wong.
Several years ago, Obama's aunt had sought asylum from Kenya. Obama has said he didn't know his aunt was living in the United States illegally.
