Arizona Governor, Jan Brewer -- Has Lobbying Ties To 'For Profit' Immigration Prisons

RACHEL MADDOW'S EXCLUSIVE REPORT: An exclusive report about politics and retaliation, and a politician who was supposed to be a rising star in the Republican Party, apparently running on fear -- fear of exposure. It starts with the issue of illegal immigration. As you can tell by the sheer volume of anti-immigrant politicking in the country right now, the illegal immigration problem must really be exploding.

That is true if by exploding you mean that it is down 67 percent.

The Pew Hispanic Center, which is widely considered to be the most authoritative source of numbers on this subject, they have release a new report saying that in the past decade, the number of illegal immigrants crossing into the United States has dropped by two-thirds.

So, the sudden uptick in yelling about illegal immigration, blaming immigrants for everything from Obama being elected to swine flu to kidnapping the Lindbergh baby, that is not happening because illegal immigration is getting worse.

It is actually getting better. The uptick in anti-immigration stuff is not really about immigration at all. It is about what makes good politics for anti-immigration politicians. And bits what make big profits, apparently, for some very well connected people. MORE INFO: http://tinyurl.com/Arizona-For-Profit-Prisons

Was Maddow born a male? She needs hormones.

[politicalarticles]

@instantword -- Is that the best you have? Say something about the video ...little twit!

Looking at the video, I think it is your "Ethnic Cleansing" governor who needs plenty of "facial hormones" -- Botox, may I suggest. She looks frighteningly ugly!

You can tell who this reporter voted for.

In my circle, Maddow is still viewed with contempt, as gay. Then suprisingly laughter erupts, as she tries so hard to be asexual or even masculine. Fun times.. Sorry... Rachel... born a female, act a female. OR don't. but if you keep it up, all your points are listened to first with a chuckle as you stew inside about actually being female.

Thank god for this honest and unbiased report. Sad to say that the witch won the election.  Four more years of corruption,Arizona politics as usual. Lots of corruption and racism. People in this state really are asleep,everything is fine as long as they can make enough money to pay the dues at the country club and their green fees at the golf course.

Jan states the mission will be completed in November - her election. She has accomplished nothing - it is only about winning an election. Then the mission is completed. Then she will do as she is told - whatever. She really can't say what that might be right now SO STOP ASKING FOR HER FOR PARTICULARS. It's all about her - and the mission!

@instantword I agree with politicalarticles...personal insults directed at Maddow are inappropriate and irrelevant...Maddow reported interesting content in a clear manner...that is relevant

@politicalarticles Yes that IS the best he has.

A prominent politician is caught demonizing, lying, and generally being a corrupt chaod?

Well the one telling you this looks "GHEY!!!!!" so that settles that.

90% of the arguments against what Maddow reports consists of nothing more then proclaiming she's a lesbian.

Brewer and privatized business has a personal gain in the immigration law. There was a scandal not long ago where a judge took bribe money from a privatized prison company and this judge sentenced every teen to a privatized prison. We have what is essentially a privatized war in Iraq and Afghanistan costing up to 3 trillion. Free market means fleecing the taxpayers. Talk about talking out of both sides of the mouth, free market on the one hand and fleecing the tax payers on the other.
