By allowing people to travel to Philadelphia who openly admitted, on stage in front of a national audience, to breaking our laws and doing nothing, the government has shown it will only enforce the laws when it chooses to. Our immigration law is clear, knowingly harboring illegal immigrants is a crime. 8 U.S. Code § 1324 states that any person who: knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has come to, entered, or remains in the United States in violation of law, transports, or moves or attempts to transport or move such alien within the United States by means of transportation or otherwise, in furtherance of such violation of law; The DNC produced the video showing Karla and her mother meeting Hillary Clinton, and mentioned that she received a deportation order.
Both Ortiz and Silva admitted on the stage to a national audience that they broke the law. The DNC invited them to the speak on their stage. If they arranged the travel for them, they would be in violation of the law and subject to fines and jail time. Violating 8 U.S. Code § 1324 is punishable by a fine or up to 10 years in prison: (i)in the case of a violation of subparagraph (A)(i) or (v)(I) or in the case of a violation of subparagraph (A)(ii), (iii), or (iv) in which the offense was done for the purpose of commercial advantage or private financial gain, be fined under title 18, imprisoned not more than 10 years, or both;(ii)in the case of a violation of subparagraph (A)(ii), (iii), (iv), or (v)(II), be fined under title 18, imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both
Will anybody be punished for breaking the law? It is doubtful. It seems the law only applies when the Obama administration decides it does.

Well it is clear in light of recent events that the FBI is already corrupted, so I would imagine the other ABC agencies are as well.

It's not right and what if these illegal immigrants were refugees...on a boat or plane. The US except so little of these legally but encourages others to sneak in and seek jobs? I'm Canadian and it's next to impossible for us to enter the country and stay, even for retirement while paying taxes even for work even while owning property. There is some bizarre form of discrimination going on with Obama. It needs to be equal not selective and to put illegals on a stage at a political convention? I hate Trump but the dems need to realize not to stoop to his level like Michelle Obama said. They need to rise above Trump, if they don't their war will be lost...I hope not but I think it may already be.

The FBI is not the problem, they can say and prove someone broke the law till they are blue in the face it is the Department of Justice that has to bring a prosecutor to press charges in a court and they won't. Without a prosecutor, investigations are pointless and that is how Obama and the Democrats circumvent the laws in order to harvest votes.
But now you have Trump asking Russian hackers to hack Hillary's e mails.... WTF.... In my opinion he should just buy an island and proclaim himself king.

Didn't the FBI director say he did not recommend bringing charges though?

It is crazy and getting crazier everyday it seems. I am a member of a building trades union. I tend to vote more Democrat as they are more for the working people and pro union. Republicans are anti union and seem to favor the rich in the hope something may "trickle down" to the non rich.
My problem is I hate the typical dem stance on illegal immigration and to parade them onstage is deplorable.
