Another Illegal Alien Alleges Abuse

Submitted by HPI on Fri, 10/01/2010 - 22:03

An illegal alien who worked for California gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman (R) for nine years by furnishing forged documentation turns against her former employer, alleging abuse. Meg says Nikki, the illegal alien Mexican, was "like family." Nikki was let go last year when she confessed to being here illegally.

Meg is the former CEO and president of eBay. Her opponent is former governor Jerry Brown (D).

This is pure and simple the all-too-common political dirty tricks, which illegal Nikki is going along with for her own purposes, showing no scruples in doing her best to blacken the good name of her former employer. Nikki is represented by attorney Gloria Allred, a supporter of Jerry Brown.

Alleging abuse is a quick and effective way to a green card followed by citizenship for an illegal alien. Neither Meg nor Sean Hannity seem to be aware of this. While one can't say with certainty that that is Nikki's motivation, the whole situation appears highly suspect.

In spite of the title showing in the video, Meg did not say that Nikki should be deported.
