US: Illegal Aliens Openly Brag About $300k Scholarships on Twitter

While the country is broke and Americans whose forefathers founded this nation and paid into the system for generations are being saddled with massive student debt, illegal immigrants are getting $282,220 scholarships and bragging about it on twitter.

Pictures were highlighted by Jared Wyand on Twitter.

California, Minnesota, New Mexico, Texas and Washington all give illegal aliens millions in financial aid. Many states allow illegals (like the ones who rioted last week in San Jose) to get in-state tuition, which is subsidized by taxpayers.

Illegals Openly Brag About $300k Scholarships on Twitter » Alex Jones' Infowars: There's a war on for your mind!

THIS COUNTRY HAS GONE TO SHIT.

while it does seem a bit off, what do you suggest the solution is? clearly the guy is pretty bright, with the right education will likely become a brilliant scientist, engineer or doctor...

so options are more or less:
1. deny him the scholarship, since he wouldn't be able to afford college education otherwise, he will starts a moderately successful landscaping business instead... seems like that would result in wasted talent?
2. we kick him out, he studies in Mexico instead, becomes a successful scientist in Mexico... we gain nothing out of it, Mexico gains a successful scientist... seems like that is not ideal outcome either? seems like it would be in our best interest to keep talented people in the US? and what about the 12+ years we already invested in his education?
3. ??

WHY DOES HE FEATURE NO LESS THAN THREE MEXICAN FLAG ICONS ON THE TWITTER PAGE, AND NOT ONE AMERICAN FLAG???

what the fuck did mexico ever do for him except create such a corrupt hellhole that his family fled there and came to the wonderful land of america where an illegal's wildest fantasies of educatiin and monetary enrichment??

No appreciation or gratitude apparently for the u.s. or its people, but all adoration for worthless mexico. I would kiss the ass of a country that gave me, or facilitated the giving to me of 300,000 dollars.

Oh and If you reward people for breaking the law, you will only encourage more people to break the law.

Because it is politically incorrect to show American patriotism, pride in America or to even be American.



.

I agree, he is ungrateful little shit, but still doesn't change the fact that probably the best option is for him to complete his education in the US, so he can then put his talents to use in the US instead of Mexico...

I don't think he is getting rewarded for breaking the law, he is rewarded for his talent and hard work... and there is really nothing we can do about it? so we cut off the "reward", like you are suggesting, and then what? he will start a landscaping business like I mentioned in the previous post, is that a better outcome you think? and he technically didn't really break any laws, his parents forced him to come here, they are the ones that broke the law, not him...

Disgusting.

Keep crying you little bitches! Unlike many american kids he worked hard in school and was rewarded because of his effort

I have no problem with my tax money being used to help someone who wants to educate themself. I do have a problem with my taxes going to subsidize billion dollar companies andmilitary contracts where the gov spends billions of dollars on aircraft that dont work right

So whats the problem? Get 4.0 and you have scholarships from Ivy league private schools. Noooo, instead you smoke marijuana pipes and vote for Sanders.

I got a 4.2 senior year. 3.9 I think average, and I just got $1000 for being Italian.......

Dropouts with GED mad at 4.0 smart kids :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
Nothing new. Dei 'mgrants waz taking our jobs as bio-chemistry engineers in Harvard research facility. Bastards! :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

4.0 is max :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh straight A


Grade Point Average Definition - The Glossary of Education Reform

You mad?????

Many places are using a 5.0 scale now. I see scores over 4.0 quite often.

GPA Calculator | Iowa State University Admissions

at some schools you can get A+, which counts more than 4.0... but high school GPA is meaningless, class rank is what counts... the guy was #9 out of 100s(?) of students, likely putting him in the top 2-3%....

Not with AP classes around here, but thanks.

Thats because they count F as a valid grade. Iowa State :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Did you miss the Ivy league part. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Yeah, we had AP English, Calculus and Physics.

A=5
B=4
C=3
D=2
F=0

True. Meaning not only he has all As, he has 98% - 100% on his finals. Principle's honor roll. Of course this makes truck driving trump supporting rednecks mad. He will be taking their jobs performing heart transplant surgeries or working for NASA. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Anything below C at my college prep school was sign towards the exit door.

I went to public schools, we didn't have doors.. :winkwink:

I know. You had metal detectors. :winkwink:

While I do not like it, I think you are right.

Getting a scholarship doesn't have anything to do with citizenship. They don't ask for documentation when they hand out scholarships.

But this raises a more interesting question.... I am guessing this kid was schooled here in the United States. I know at the very least you a need a birth certificate to get into a school. They ask for it when you first sign your kid up for school. This is done not to verify their citizenship, but instead to verify the kid's parents are in fact the kid's parents. You also need this when you sign up your kid for local sports leagues too. In the case of a school, if they do not have a US birth certificate, they should be required to prove citizenship.

Lol it wasn't THAT bad..

God damned illegals getting an education....we shoul put a stop to this so they can become criminals when they cant find a low skilled job in the usa...meanwhile education is free in most countries in the planet grrrrrr wtf?

I am an angry bigot grrrrrr

weird how it's OK with some of you that an illegal gets a free ride but no way should public tuition be in any way free, you know, because that creates laziness and you had to walk uphill both ways to get your degree while working 60 hours a week.

It's called "Investing".
Don't you worry, uncle Sam will get him when he starts making the big bucks 10 years from now ;)

"illegal" is a red herring here...

what happened here is a talented, top of his class, student got a free ride at a private university... given it's a private university, cost to tax payer, if any, is trivial, while the benefits are significant... how could anyone have a problem with that?

on the other hand, costs of giving free higher education to everyone are huge, while the benefits (if there even are any?) aren't clear...

I had to walk up hill both ways in the snow and I could only afford sandals.

from my understanding, illegals cost Americans 100s of billions of dollars while only contributing 10s of billions back. the red herring is your's. i also can't find who gave him his scholarship dollars but plenty of public dollars can go to private tuition, including scholarships. i also know of the dream act, which gives public tax dollars to illegals to pay for college.

we also don't know what these illegals are going to major in/graduate with. they could be liberal arts majors. moreover, free tuition can be focused. that's the plan, including HIllary's free tuition plan. it's not willy nilly free tuition.

dad? is that you? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Its free for smart people here too. Those who actually deserve it. You wouldn't qualify and be butthurt like all others in this thread. Kid got 300K to go to Ivy league school. It was either that or university of Belgrade...


























Noooooooooooooot

for "illegals" in general that may be true, but even then it's debatable...

but the topic at hand is not "illegals" in general, but this particular "illegal" who happen to be unusually talented and so as a result got a free ride at UPenn... if you were in charge, what would you do with him?

as to focused free tuition, it sounds like a decent idea, I'm open it to it, but only for top students in selected majors... free tuition for everyone on the other hand would be a mistake I think...

For those with 3.8 and above with legitimate degree - should be free. Every asswipe with pottery design or sociology major deserves to be poor and in debt for the rest of their lives.

As usual you got it wrong. Read Rubio's reports and then come back. After all he was THE Immigration expert to go to in these elections.

i dont see how it's just about 1 illegal. the op article cites plenty of illegals twitting about free college rides + being illegals, almost like they're snarkily pointing it out.

i don't have an answer for the illegals problem.

as usual? settle down. you like to think you can participate in higher level thinking threads such as this then you fail to grasp the meaning of phrases like, "it's my understanding". if you'd had attended college, you'd be familiar with the point of that phrase.

besides, you couldn't point to a single time here i've been wrong.

as usual, i'm right.

The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration on United States Taxpayers (2013)

more on how i'm right and you're wrong.


During 2007, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office reviewed 29 reports published over 15 years on the impact of unauthorized immigrants on the budgets of state and local governments. While cautioning that the reports are not a suitable basis for developing an aggregate national effect across all states, they concluded that:

State and local governments incur costs for providing services to unauthorized immigrants and have limited options for avoiding or minimizing those costs;


The amount that state and local governments spend on services for unauthorized immigrants represents a small percentage of the total amount spent by those governments to provide such services to residents in their jurisdictions;


The tax revenues that unauthorized immigrants generate for state and local governments do not offset the total cost of services provided to those immigrants, although the impact is most likely modest, and;


Federal aid programs offer resources to state and local governments that provide services to unauthorized immigrants, but those funds do not fully cover the costs incurred by those governments.

I'm actually one of those kids who got CS Bachelor of Science degree in 4 years taking 18 hours per semester. Didn't have to pay a dime because I had corporate scholarships from EDS and Microsoft. Oh, and I got to wear one of those nice looking scarves around my neck at my graduations. care to share your achievements champ ???? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

PS: Did I say I'm "legacy" at #1 college prep school in town? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

It is my understanding you got an F in debate class at your local community college :winkwink:

I said official government date not some BS from anti-immigration group :1orglaugh

Failure :1orglaugh

so you're saying even with an F in high school debate squad someone still easily beat you in debate.

no wonder you can't win a debate.
