District court’s imposition of 90-months’ imprisonment on a defendant convicted of illegally re-entering the US with two prior convictions for aggravated felonies is affirmed as the district court implicitly considered and rejected defendant’s argument for a reduced sentence and properly considered the sentencing factors in 18 U.S.C. section 3553(a).
