Last night while exercising on the elliptical at Gold's Gym, CNN was showing an interview with this man for an extended period. He kept shaking his head up and down apparently in agreement with the questions being asked by the news anchor. Behind him were several people, some of whom were wearing shirts with a label suggesting that they too were illegal aliens. Beneath the news scroll was a title that in bold print proclaimed that the interviewee was a Pulitzer Prize winning author.
Today I see in the news that this man, Jose Antonio Vargas, has been detained by ICE officials. It seems that he was taunting conservatives with Tweets telling of how he called ICE and told them of his illegal presence and mugging for photographs next to ICE vehicle.

Reading the comments in the above found a link that suggested that the state of Washington revoked his driver's licence three years ago.

To me this begs the question, why, after travelling with false identification documents, using false social security numbers, both illegal to regular citizens, is this man still in our country?
It seems like ICE officials did not enjoy having been the object of parody. How serious they are we will learn in the near future. The proper route should be, conviction for laws broken, incarceration, followed with deportation.
We'll see how smug he is after being somebody's girlfriend for a few months.
