SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- Francisco is a young entrepreneur who loves working with his hands. His dream is to start his own company, but it never seemed very realistic until now.“I will be attending Texas A&M San Antonio and I will be studying business,” Francisco said.Francisco is a first-generation college student. However, he wasn’t sure college would be in the cards for him since another term to define him is undocumented immigrant.“Sometimes you feel like separated from everybody because they’re like, 'oh you’re an immigrant, you’re not from here.’ So, sometimes it’s harder for you because people categorize you,” Francisco said.He says his parents worked hard to make sure he was taking full advantage of his education."My mom legit, she took English classes just to try to help me with school. So that was a major impact for me and I was so grateful for it.”No matter how hard his parents worked, it was still difficult for his family to navigate the U.S. education system, especially considering the added challenges undocumented students face.“For example when my mom would call counselors and ask questions and stuff like that, sometimes they didn’t give you the right information, or they didn’t give you the full information that you need to know,” Francisco said.Francisco’s situation is nothing new, but a nonprofit is trying to change that. Viridiana Carrizales is the co-founder and CEO of ImmSchools.“ImmSchools was created in response to the lack of support that exists in k-12 for undocumented students and families," Carrizales said. "As co-founders we are all formally undocumented women who experienced and navigated k-12 being undocumented and having undocumented parents.”From following protocol for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, to understanding a student’s right to pursue higher education, Carrizales says they want to make sure teachers and counselors are trained to help their immigrant students.“We’ve heard from many students that are a part of our programs that they’re still hearing from their teachers from their counselor that being undocumented, you really don’t have opportunities to go to college, that being undocumented you don’t have an opportunity to apply for scholarships,” Carrizales said.But really, going to college is possible, even for undocumented students. In fact, Francisco is now attending a four-year university with a full-ride scholarship through TheDream.Us that ImmSchools helped him apply for. Most scholarships require U.S. citizenship, but the TheDream.Us scholarship is offered to dreamers -- the young immigrants granted legal status after being brought to the U.S. as children.“I looked at my email and surprise to me I had gotten the scholarship. Which was amazing. I started crying, because it’s a major opportunity, because it’s a full-ride to a university,” Francisco said.His mother, Manuela, was in shock.“Lorre, lorre, y lo dicimos ‘wow’ ya lograste. Fue algo enorme,” Manuela said. (English translation: We cried and cried and said ‘wow, you did it.’ It was something huge.)Helping parents advocate for their children is another aspect of the nonprofit. Active in Texas, New York, and now New Jersey, Carrizales says the goal is to reach parents and schools across the nation.“We want our families to truly feel free. Because right now the first thought that comes to mind if you’re undocumented is your immigration status,” Carrizales said.Moving forward, Manuela and Francisco feel hopeful about his opportunities. Their suggestion to other families is to never give up.“Puedes alcanzar al cielo, pero sin dejar pisar el suelo porque mientras sepas de donde vienes y a se donde vas, todo va a estar bien contigo," Maneula said. (English translation: You can still reach for the stars without taking your feet off the ground because everything turns out well when you remember where you came from and where you’re going.)“Your education matters, your education is important. No matter your situation, there’s always a possibility for everything,” Francisco said. 4058

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Conan O'Brien has agreed to settle a lawsuit with a writer who says the talk-show host stole jokes from his Twitter feed and blog for O'Brien's monologue on "Conan."Attorneys for O'Brien and the writer, Robert Kaseberg, filed documents in San Diego federal court Thursday announcing the agreement. The terms were not disclosed.The deal comes nearly four years after the rare joke-theft case was filed and about three weeks before the trial date.RELATED: Conan O'Brien to defend himself against San Diego writer in joke theft trialO'Brien wrote a column in Variety explaining the settlement decision, insisting that neither he nor anyone on his staff ever heard of Kaseberg, his blog or his Twitter account, and no one stole any jokes. But O'Brien wrote that he wanted to forgo a "potentially farcical and expensive" trial.Kaseberg's attorneys didn't immediately reply to a message seeking comment. 922

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A coalition of activists led by MoveOn.org held a "day of action" Saturday aimed at saving the U.S. Postal system, with nearly 700 nationwide rallies -- including many in the San Diego area.The rallies were held outside various postal facilities."... we will show up at local post offices across the country for "Save the Post Office Saturday" to save the post office from (President Donald) Trump and declare that Postmaster General Louis DeJoy must resign," said a statement on the MoveOn.org website.San Diego County rallies included Oceanside, Carlsbad, Vista, Encinitas, Pacific Beach, Ocean Beach, Hillcrest, Normal Heights, Carmel Mountain, Lakeside, University City, College Grove, Otay Mesa, San Ysidro, El Cajon and Escondido.DeJoy, who became postmaster general June 16, has been accused of tampering with the nation's postal service by banning overtime, removing mail sorting equipment and prohibiting extra trips by postal workers to collect mail and parcels that arrive later in the day under the auspices of cutting costs.The U.S. Postal Service lost .8 billion in the 2019 fiscal year, more than twice the amount of the previous year, and DeJoy has said the changes are necessary to save money.Critics have said the changes have slowed mail delivery at a time when more people are relying on the service amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, and to vote by mail ahead of the Nov. 3 election.DeJoy attempted to defend his leadership during a hearing Friday before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee and said operational changes would be put on hold until after the election. He also vowed post offices will be able to handle mail-in ballots.He is expected to testify Monday before the Democrat-led House Oversight Committee.Trump described DeJoy last Saturday as "a very talented man" and "a brilliant business person." He was chairman and CEO of the North Carolina- based contract logistics firm New Breed Logistics from 1983 until 2014.White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said at a briefing Wednesday that the Postal Service "does have sufficient funding through 2021, and they do currently have cash on hand. They've been given that billion line of credit through the CARES Act," referring to the federal coronavirus relief bill.McEnany said the Trump administration is "certainly open to" increased Postal Service funding.On Tuesday, Trump called for Amazon to pay more for shipping packages through the Postal Service."Amazon is paying an ancient price, and they shouldn't be," Trump said. "And they shouldn't be allowed to pass it on to their customer."Trump also said "we shouldn't get rid of any of our postal workers."Ruth Y. Goldway, a commissioner of the U.S. Postal Regulatory Commission from 1998-2015 and its chair from 2009-14, urged "everyone to be calm," in an op-ed published Tuesday by The New York Times."Don't fall prey to the alarmists on both sides of this debate," wrote Goldway, a Democrat appointed to the commission by then-President Bill Clinton and reappointed in 2002 and 2008 by then-President George W. Bush. "The Postal Service is not incapacitated. It is still fully capable of delivering the mail."Goldway wrote that "while the agency indeed has financial problems, as a result of a huge increase in packages being sent through the system and a credit line through the CARES Act, it has access to about billion in cash. Its own forecasts predict that it will have enough money to operate into 2021."Goldway attributed the Postal Service's "shaky financial situation" largely to the approximately 30% drop in first-class mail, typically used for letters, from 10 years ago."The service's expensive, overbuilt infrastructure can absorb the addition of more mail in 2020, including election mail that is mailed to and sent back by every voter in every state," Goldway wrote.The U.S. House of Representatives, in a rare Saturday evening vote, passed a bill that would provide billion in funding for the Postal Service and requires the agency to return to prior operations levels.The vote was 257-150, with 26 Republicans joining all House Democrats voting in favor.Senate Republicans have said that they would not pass the bill, and President Trump has said he would veto it anyway. 4307

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A 21-year-old man who used social media to convince a 14-year-old girl to send him sexually explicit photos, telling her to take a "leap of faith" to meet and have sex with him, is facing years in federal prison when he's sentenced in January, the U.S. Attorney's Office announced Monday.Jurors found Isaiah Smallwood-Jackson guilty of production of child pornography and enticement of a minor. The federal convictions reached Thursday-- in a case investigated by the Oceanside Police Department -- trigger mandatory minimum sentences of 15 and ten years, respectively, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.According to evidence presented at trial, Smallwood-Jackson began communicating with the girl using the Spotafriend social media application. He admitted during chats with the victim -- whose profile listed her true age of 14 -- that he was 21 years old and didn't care that she was a minor.Using the internet, Smallwood-Jackson discussed sexual acts he wanted to perform with the girl and convinced her to produce and send him sexually explicit pictures and provide her address, according to Assistant U.S. Attorney Mandy Griffith.The girl repeatedly told Smallwood-Jackson that she was not sure she wanted to meet with him, but he told her to take a "leap of faith." The defendant then traveled to her home, convinced her to come outside, and had sex with her, according to prosecutors.In texts afterward, Smallwood-Jackson apologized for hurting the minor victim. She confided in her sister, who contacted law enforcement."Internet predators beware: the Department of Justice is committed to striking back against repugnant crimes against innocent children," said U.S. Attorney Adam Braverman. "No child should ever have to endure sexual abuse. The United States will utilize every tool available to it to hold these 1855

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Marine Corps prosecutors were meeting Tuesday to try and save its cases against 13 Marines accused of crimes tied to a human smuggling and drug investigation after a military judge ruled it was illegal to make the videotaped arrests made during a battalion formation while leaders called them “a cancer” and “bad Marines.”Maj. Kendra Motz said prosecutors at Marine Corps Camp Pendleton were exploring their options, but she did not know what they were considering.The judge, Marine Col. Stephen Keane, gave prosecutors until Nov. 25 to offer a way to remedy the situation.When ruling Friday, Keane agreed with defense attorneys that commanders violated the rights of the accused when they pulled the Marines out of a morning battalion formation of 800 troops at Camp Pendleton July 25 and accused them of the crimes in front of their unit, 1st Battalion, 5th Marines.The actions amounted to unlawful command influence, Keane said. That is when commanders use their positions of power to affect a case and compromise the ability for a fair trial.If the prosecution cannot remedy the situation, the court would be left with only one option: dismissing the charges, he said.Defense attorneys for some of the Marines have asked for charges to be dismissed. They say the public display would make it difficult to find an impartial jury pool and guarantee a fair trial.The Marine Corps filmed the arrests. The video was obtained by the San Diego Union-Tribune.The Marine Corps said in a statement when the newspaper obtained the video that it was made to document the arrest “in an unbiased, non-editorialized manner.”The video is for official use only and would not be released, Motz said. Prosecutors declined to be interviewed, saying they do not comment on pending cases.The military personnel are accused of various crimes from migrant smuggling to drug-related offenses, but officials have not said exactly how they were involved.U.S. Border Patrol officials say smuggling rings have been luring U.S. troops, police officers, Border Patrol agents and others to work for them as drivers — a crucial component of moving migrants further into the United States once smugglers get them over the border from Mexico.None of the Marines are accused of bringing immigrants across the border. 2309
