Spanish Post Office Processed Mass Amnesty Requests Without Checking Criminal Records

Medforth AI

Spain’s Correos state postal office processed mass amnesty applications for illegal migrants without requiring arrivals to prove they have no criminal record — one of the allegedly indispensable requirements listed by the leftist government in Madrid.

Correos‘ offices across Spain are being used by the Spanish socialist government in its ongoing process to grant mass amnesty to half a million illegal migrants, with over 370 Correos locations currently serving as amnesty application reception centres per the Spanish Inclusion Ministry.

The Spanish postal service, on its official website, explicitly states that illegal migrants seeking to benefit from the amnesty must present proof that they were present in Spain before January 1, 2026, and that they have remained in the country for at least 5 months at the time of the application. Additionally, they must also demonstrate that they have no criminal record and do not pose a threat to public order, public safety, or public health.

Spanish newspaper ABC reports that it obtained a copy of a Correos operational manual containing guidelines for processing amnesty requests. According to ABC, the manual, which was used at least up until last Tuesday, contains “errors affecting key information” in the processing of migrants’ applications, and does not instruct workers to request clean criminal records from prospective amnesty beneficiaries.

“In that regard, employees of the public company have been unable to perform their duties fully, which may have resulted in some foreign nationals submitting incomplete documentation,” ABC wrote.

Per the report, the “mistake” of omitting the mandatory criminal records certification could have affected hundreds of the some 20,000 amnesty applications received by Spanish authorities to date. The manual has since reportedly been amended to correct the omission and now includes new provisions allowing migrants to present “valid or expired” verifiable identification documents.

Unnamed Correos workers told the newspaper that offices without adequate resources have been chosen for amnesty processing, a task they must carry out in addition to their normal postal service duties, which has forced them to endure stress and pressure over “fears of making a mistake.”

One source told ABC that, in some instances, small post offices with just three service counters have been chosen as processing centres. The Correos bureaucracy had planned for each migrant’s amnesty request to take 20 minutes to process, but sources say this has proven grossly inadequate, and it often takes far longer.

“Couldn’t we have run tests to estimate the time needed with the resources we have?” one of the unnamed workers told ABC.

The same source detailed that on the first day, their office worked with an error-ridden manual and incomplete training, resulting in processing times of about 90 minutes per person, which led many migrants to leave.

Several police force unions in Spain had already raised alarms about the post office problems, branding the broader mass amnesty decree as a “mistake.” Members of Spain’s Unified Police Union (SUP) have reportedly affirmed that officials currently in charge of the amnesty process have no past experience and lack the training comparable to that of SUP agents to carry out such a task.

Spanish outlets reported last week that the sheer amount of illegal migrants seeking to receive amnesty at post office counters has collapsed the Spanish postal service — an outcome that Correos workers warned Spanish authorities of as a possibility back in March. In response, the Spanish government announced on Monday that it will extend the amnesty submission timeframe from 20 to 30 minutes.

The Spanish government is expected to receive mass amnesty applications until June 30, with the eventual aim of granting legal residence status, work permits, and other benefits to half a million illegal migrants, despite a majority of Spanish nationals and lawmakers expressing fierce rejection of the plan. Similarly, EU politicians and officials have raised concerns over the inevitable consequences of a country within an open borders union unilaterally declaring its own frontiers effectively open.

The amnesty — that Spain officially calls a regularisation of migrants — has seen long queues forming across the country as illegals wait to have their paperwork made official.

Last week, Spain’s Supreme Court accepted an appeal from Madrid’s local government seeking to stop the mass amnesty process, but it has yet to issue a ruling at press time.

The hijab appears as haute couture in Paris fashion week show

Paris has hosted its first Modest Fashion Week, bringing together more than 30 designers from Indonesia, Turkey, Nigeria and beyond.

The event, from April 16 to 18, was presented as a celebration of diversity, inclusion and of Muslim women.

Modest fashion is clothes that cover the arms, legs and often the hair, originally aimed at Muslim women. Today, it’s a booming global market, worth around $400 billion (€340 billion), now targeting a much wider audience, including other religious communities and secular shoppers.

Holding this event in France is significant. The country has spent years debating the place of the hijab and other religious symbols in public life. Headscarves have been banned in state schools for over 20 years. More recently, abayas were banned, too.

In many public jobs, visible religious clothing is simply not allowed. That’s laïcité — the French idea that public spaces should stay free of religion.

The event took place at the Hôtel Le Marois, near the Champs-Élysées, with soft, elegant collections inspired by flowers and nature.

One look, from the brand Asiyam Nour Turbans, showed a model wearing a beret over a headscarf. It was meant to mix French culture with modest fashion.

Özlem Şahir, one of the event’s organisers, described the French capital as one of the leading modest fashion hubs in the world, an ironic claim for a country historically associated with more revealing fashion, such as the invention of the bikini.

Another designer, Fatou Doucouré, founder of Soutoura, told the BBC she felt proud to present her work in Paris. She said she had struggled with wearing the hijab in France before but this event made her feel it was no longer holding her back.

Still hard for many to ignore what’s happening elsewhere. In countries such as Iran, women are still punished for not wearing the headscarf properly. Some are arrested, some are killed. In that context, turning the headscarf into a fashion statement on a Paris runway feels disconnected to observers. This event created a lot of controversy online and criticism

Migrants being trained to paraglide into European countries so they can bypass border formalities

Image generated by ChatGPT.

by Olivia Murray 

What a dystopian hellscape we’re living in: Spain, one of Europe’s many (former) jewels, is as good as gone, considering the nation just passed a “mass legalization” amnesty plan, which will see hundreds of thousands of illegally present foreigners be granted the privilege of staying (PBS says that number will be anywhere between 500k and 840k individuals from third world nations).

And to make matters worse, per Thomas Brooke at Remix News, the foreigners still pouring in are now doing so by air, being taught to paraglide into the country by human traffickers, so they can bypass border formalities—and get amnesty later of course. They’re not just suffering an invasion by land and by sea anymore, now it’s a literal invasion from the skies too. From Brooke:

While mass attempts to scale the border fence and crossings by sea remain common, security sources say a new “aerial route” is gaining traction. Moroccan trafficking networks are allegedly teaching sub-Saharan migrants how to operate paragliders, enabling them to bypass the heavily fortified double fence and land directly into Spanish territory.

Images obtained by the outlet are said to show training sessions, with footage circulating in large messaging groups numbering tens of thousands of users, suggesting growing interest in the tactic among would-be migrants.

Oh how I sorrow over the short-term memories of the Europeans—about as much as their historical ignorance. Do they remember nothing of the Spanish Crusades? To make matters worse, at least the Moors of Al-Andalus produced beauty and function—having lived in Spain for a summer with my family as a teenager, we had the privilege of visiting Córdoba and Seville, with all the stunning architecture of Islamic “golden age” design, and no one could argue those Muslims were the same as the incestuous, bestiality-loving, low-IQ hordes we see pouring out of the third world today. These Islamic individuals are barely above beasts in their behaviors, abilities, and capacities to meaningfully and productively interact with the Western world and its ideals. They’re not building the Mezquita or Alhambra, creating hubs of debate and science, and innovating advanced agricultural technologies—they’re raping and grilling our neighborhood cats, robbing Spaniards in wheelchairs, and trafficking teen girls into prostitution.

There is one silver lining—a glittering, beautiful silver lining— to this story: Apparently, the migrants aren’t really intelligent enough to really get the hang of the paragliding equipment, and the traffickers aren’t doing a very good job teaching them how to successfully manipulate the controls…so…it seems like the problem will solve itself in many cases. At least, that’s my hope.

‘She is in a state of total shock’ – 12-year-old French girl collapses after judge releases 2 men arrested for gang raping her in an Airbnb

Two young men, both adults, suspected of gang rape in an Airbnb in the France’s Décines-Charpieu (Rhône), have been released from custody, shocking the family of one of the victims.

The victim’s lawyer, David Metaxas, spoke on behalf of the victim’s relatives, who told LyonMag that the judge’s decision was “incomprehensible.” Not only have both men been released to roam freely in the streets, but the judge did not even issue a restriction on contact with the victim, which means the two men could approach her once again.

Last week, the two men, aged 20 and 21, were arrested for the rape involving the 12-year-old, as well as a 16-year-old girl who had allegedly led the younger victim to the apartment. After reportedly exchanging messages with the two young men via Snapchat, the teen encouraged her younger friend to come with her to the Airbnb. Alcohol and drugs were allegedly consumed, with an excessive amount of hard liquor given to the 12-year-old.

Falling unconscious, the younger victim recounted waking up “lying on a bed covered in blood,” before realizing what had happened, recounts Lyon Mag. It was when she turned her phone back on that her mother was able to geolocate her, allowing the police to intervene. She is said to have run away from her home in Givors before the incident.

However, now the perpetrators are free. The family of the 12-year-old says her safety and innocence were tossed aside from the get-go, with police allegedly not even asking her to file a complaint initially.

“They were very poorly received, as if they were a nuisance,” said David Metaxas, the lawyer representing the 12-year-old. He pointed to a total lack of support and guidance, adding the very obvious and visible signs of rape suffered by the young girl.

“It is unacceptable that the form to file a complaint was not given to them by the police. It must be remembered that they were dealing with a young girl who had been deflowered, anally and orally penetrated, and who had wounds all over her body.”

Unfortunately, the 16-year-old girl and the accused men all stated that the girl was consenting. “Everyone agrees that she was consenting, or even that she was provoking, even though she is 12 years old and was completely drunk to the point of losing consciousness,” he said, adding that at the hearing, the girl was in an advanced state of shock.

“The lack of coercive measures concerning the suspects […] is incomprehensible,” stated Metaxas, the lawyer representing the 12-year-old, as quoted by LyonMag. He added that the court has failed to demand any judicial supervision or even a restraining order on the alleged perpetrators.  

“They can, if they wish, contact and visit the young girl whenever they want,”  he warns.  “Therefore, there is total incomprehension, not to mention anger, on the part of the family.”

As for the young victim, she allegedly collapsed in the lawyer’s office upon hearing of the decision and was taken to the hospital. “She is in a state of total shock. She couldn’t utter a single word in my office. The justice system needs to take charge of this case very quickly,” he stated.

Metaxas insists he will not let the matter be and will be asking the public prosecutor that “a specialized service be put in charge of the investigation with the implementation of coercive measures to ensure the safety of this minor.”

The two men are still under investigation.

Lawyers ‘Tell Migrants To Claim They’re Gay’ To Stay in Italy

Medforth AI

A network of migration lawyers in Italy is allegedly gaming asylum laws by presenting migrants as gay or at risk of family persecution to halt deportations, an investigation by Il Giornale claims.

The paper also alleges that the lawyers tell migrants to say they would face persecution from their families if they returned home.

One Bologna lawyer told the paper:

If a migrant is Nigerian, everything is focused on homosexuality. It’s claimed that their client is gay and that if repatriated, he or she will face persecution. If, however, the detainee is of another nationality, the focus is on the family harassment he or she would face if returned to his or her homeland. It’s a fixed pattern.

Journalist Matt Carus described this as proof that “we’re beyond human rights, we’re at organised fraud,” and said the state—and, indeed, the Italian taxpayer—was being “taken for a ride.”

Lega MEP Silvia Sardone, who says the Left “want[s] our country invaded by illegal immigrants,” noted that this practice is “widespread across Europe to obtain asylum.”

Indeed, reports just last week—including by the establishment BBC—revealed that a “shadow industry of law firms and advisers” is helping migrants stay in the UK by pretending to be gay. Others are falsely claiming to be victims of domestic abuse.

Anna Maria Cisint, who also represents Lega in the European Parliament, said this legal practice was an example of the “Left, once again … showing its true colors: that of open doors at all costs.”

Members of the governing Brothers of Italy party have called for an investigation into the allegations.

UK police arrest suspect amid wave of anti-Jewish attacks in London

Police have arrested a 37-year-old man on suspicion of preparing terrorist acts as part of an investigation into a wave of attacks targeting London’s Jewish community.

The BBC reported that the suspect was detained Sunday at a property near Barnstaple, Devon, and is being questioned in London. The arrest follows a series of incidents involving synagogues, community buildings, and emergency vehicles.

The Metropolitan Police said 26 people have been arrested since an arson attack on Hatzola ambulances in Golders Green on March 23. Eight suspects have been charged with arson-related offenses, and one individual has been convicted.

Among the incidents under investigation are an ignited container thrown at a Persian-language media office and the discovery of jars containing a non-hazardous substance in Kensington Gardens.

An Islamist group with suspected Iranian links, Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamia, has claimed responsibility for several of the attacks in the UK and Europe, including the ambulance arson.

UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer previously warned about the use of proxy groups by foreign states. He made the remarks during a visit to Kenton United Synagogue, which was recently targeted in a petrol bomb attack.

Police are probing multiple incidents, including the destruction of four Hatzola ambulances in Golders Green, attacks on Finchley Reform Synagogue and a israelnationalnews

Transgender Man Arrested After Being Accused of “Kidnapping” Son, Taking Him To Cuba For Sex Change Surgeries

A prominent Utah-based transgender activist has been arrested after allegedly abducting his 10-year-old son in order to take him overseas for “gender reassignment” surgery. Eric Ethington, 42, also known as “Rose Inessa-Ethington,” had reportedly “manipulated” the boy into identifying as a girl.

Ethington, originally from Cache County in Utah, was deported from Cuba earlier this week after a joint investigation by the FBI and Cuban law enforcement. Ethington’s partner, Blue Inessa-Ethington, was also arrested and removed from the country. Both were charged with the international kidnapping of Ethington’s biological son, and are currently being held in Richmond, Virginia, on federal charges.

According to court documents, Ethington and his partner took his son from his biological mother under the ruse of going on a camping trip to Canada. The 10-year-old’s biological mother shares joint custody with Ethington, and had given him permission to bring the boy into Alberta for what she believed was a short, safe adventure. But the group never arrived at the camping grounds where Ethington claimed they would be staying, and the child’s biological mother was unable to contact them from that point on.

On March 29, Ethington, his partner, and his son crossed into British Columbia, and then took a flight that day from Vancouver to Mexico City. Two days later, the group flew from Merida, Mexico, into Havana.

Back in Utah, the boy’s biological mother and the rest of her family members began to have “significant concerns” about their whereabouts. Local police in Logan City were called after repeated attempts to contact or locate Ethington and the child failed.

Logan police began their investigation, which included executing a search warrant at Ethington’s home. Numerous “to-do lists” were discovered there, suggesting the trip to Cuba had been well-planned.

Disturbingly, Ethington’s 10-year-old son allegedly identifies as transgender. According the Department of Justice reports, this is believed to be “largely a result of manipulation” by Ethington, who himself only began identifying as “female” shortly after his son was born. Because of this, concerns were raised that Ethington’s intention may have been to subject the child to forced “gender reassignment” surgery in Cuba.

The concerns of the forced transition surgery were initially dismissed by Logan City Police, whose spokesman said that the family “just had the concern about it, no actual physical evidence.” Despite this statement, court documents show that a search of Ethington’s residence uncovered notes including “instructions on gender affirming medical care for children.”

After an Utah state judge ordered the return of the boy to his mother on April 13, she was granted immediate exclusive custody and a federal warrant was issued for the arrest of the pair three days later. On that same day, they were located by Cuban authorities in Havana. According to news reports, the child was swiftly reunited with his mother following Ethington’s deportation back to the United States.

Additional details on Ethington’s history have now begun to circulate.

After separating from the child’s mother, Ethington launched a fundraiser entitled “Help a Trans Mother Keep Custody of Her Child” in 2021. The fundraiser’s description noted that Ethington was attempting to raise the boy as “gender open,” another term for gender neutral.

“Rose helps find safe and inclusive medical providers and schools for the child in addition to organizing appointments, buying clothes, and ensuring good nutrition. She even trains providers and teachers to make sure her son has the best chances of not being discriminated against,” the fundraiser read, using feminine pronouns to refer to Ethington.

The fundraiser claimed that the child’s mother had relocated them several counties away, and that this had “negatively impacted” his ability to raise the boy how he saw fit. He also complained that he was at a “disadvantage against her cishet ex-wife.”

Since 2010, Ethington has been a prominent LGBT activist in Utah, formerly identifying as a bisexual male before his transition. He has written over 50 articles for LGBTQ Nation, an LGBT news outlet, often focusing his subjects on Utah and Mormonism.

Archived records of Ethington’s former social media accounts, as reviewed by Reduxx, show that he was affiliated with the National LGBT Journalists Association and held a directorial role at Political Research Associates, a social justice research and strategy center.

His bio on the website boasts that his work has been featured by MSNBC, the New York Times, and the Guardian, along with mentioning that he has worked as an “electoral campaign strategist” in Utah. In his fundraiser, it was noted that Ethington has often organized protests in Utah, dealt with lawmakers, and even taught “diversity training.”

In a 2012 video posted to YouTube, Ethington said that he became involved in the community after seeing one of the programs at the Utah Pride Centre for “homeless LGBT youth.”

He said he “remembered sitting there, watching those kids, who were 14 to 18, and thinking about how… they don’t have a place to sleep.” Ethington claimed he was thrown out of his house by his father at 17, after coming out as bisexual.

UK: Iranian migrant, 14, avoids jail after being convicted of raping schoolgirl as victim’s family left ‘furious’

The Iranian teenager broke into Britain via small boat three months before the incident. Screengrab OK

An Iranian migrant, 14, has avoided jail after being convicted of raping a schoolgirl just three months after arriving in Britain on a small boat.

The teenager, who arrived as an unaccompanied minor last June and was placed in foster care, was found guilty in January of rape and two counts of sexual assault following an attack on a fellow pupil.

Instead of being sent to a young offender institution, he was ordered in mid-March to attend specialist sessions “on the understanding of consent, boundaries, and victim awareness”.

He was also handed a two-year exclusion order banning him from returning to the crime scene or surrounding area.

The attack took place on September 23 last year after the pair encountered each other, having previously attended the same school.

Prosecutor Cassandra Roberts told the court the attacker forced his victim into bushes beside a skate park before pushing her to the ground.

Ms Roberts said he had asked the girl to “do stuff” before overpowering her, adding: “She was saying ‘get off me’ and ‘no’, and this was ignored.”

The court was also told that the teenager then posted about carrying out the attack on social media just hours later.

The victim’s family were reportedly left stunned that he avoided a custodial sentence despite showing no remorse for his actions.

A source close to the family told The Sun: “The victim’s family are furious. They’re outraged. This sentence is a total joke.”

They added: “There has been no punishment. This isn’t a deterrent at all. The rapist is still free and could just do it again.

“The victim has to carry this for the rest of her life, while he can just go out as if nothing has happened.”

Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp hit out at the sentence, saying: “This vile attacker should be locked up for his crimes. Custody should be the only punishment for rapists.”

Mr Philp added: “These attacks continue to happen under this weak Labour Government who have lost control of our borders.”

Meanwhile, a Home Office spokeswoman said: “This was a sickening crime, and our thoughts are with the victim and her loved ones.

“Sentencing is a matter for the independent judiciary, but foreign nationals who commit these vile crimes will be deported at the earliest opportunity.”

The youth justice system treats custody as a last resort, and there are no fixed sentencing guidelines for juveniles convicted of rape.

However, teenagers of a similar age have previously received sentences of up to four years in young offender institutions.

Unaccompanied child asylum seekers are afforded greater legal protections than adult migrants, making deportation significantly more challenging.

Britain also does not deport offenders to Iran, deeming the country unsafe for returns.
