No Immigration Reform? Trump ‘Giving Strong Considerations’ to Send Illegal Immigrants to Sanctuary Cities
“The Radical Left always seems to have an Open Borders, Open Arms policy – so this should make them very happy!”
Is he serious or trying to get Congress to finally reform our immigration laws? Who knows, but President Donald Trump tweeted that his administration is “giving strong considerations” to send illegal immigrants to sanctuary cities.
Since November, the idea to place illegal immigrants in sanctuary cities floated around as Trump butted heads with Democrats over immigration and a border wall.
The White House shot down reports from The Washington Post, but Trump’s tweets make it look like the idea is still alive and well.
Due to the fact that Democrats are unwilling to change our very dangerous immigration laws, we are indeed, as reported, giving strong considerations to placing Illegal Immigrants in Sanctuary Cities only….

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi does not like the idea:
“The extent of this Administration’s cynicism and cruelty cannot be overstated,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s spokeswoman Ashley Etienne said in a statement Friday. “Using human beings—including little children—as pawns in their warped game to perpetuate fear and demonize immigrants is despicable, and in some cases, criminal.”
She added: “The American people have resoundingly rejected this Administration’s toxic anti-immigrant policies, and Democrats will continue to advance immigration policies that keep us safe and honor our values.”
People have crowded our border, which has caused an overflow at detention and housing centers. Officials simply do not have the room. So back in November, an email from the White House asked about sending them to these sanctuary cities.
One ICE official noted “that there were budgetary and liability issues, but also said ‘there are PR risks as well.'” ICE also worried the move could cause “political retribution.”
Acting Director Matt Albence said no one in the White House pressured him to take the proposal.
Another administration official claimed the shipment to sanctuary cities “is not our ideal policy,” but instead making “enough detention space so we can detain people and remove them.”
Trump has long criticized these sanctuary cities, usually run by Democrats, who do not want to work with federal immigration agencies. Last May, Trump’s new budget targeted these sanctuary cities: change or lose your federal funding.
The situation between California and Trump escalated in March 2018 when the DOJ sued the Golden State over its “sanctuary state” status after “three recently-passed state laws were deliberately interfering with federal immigration policies.”
California’s rebellion led to many of its cities to reject the sanctuary state laws while other states joined the DOJ’s lawsuit.
In July 2018, a judge “approved California’s motion to throw out the lawsuit related to two of those measures: Senate Bill 54, the sanctuary state law, and Assembly Bill 103, which allows the state attorney general to inspect detention facilities.” However, the judge “did permit the case against a portion of Assembly Bill 450 to proceed,” which “forces companies to inform workers within 72 hours of any federal requests to inspect employment records.”

Fuck the left. If they are opposed to immigration laws then let them reap what they sow.
Did you catch Pelosi and the Democrats talking about themselves again?
RE: ““Using human beings—including little children—as pawns in their warped game to perpetuate fear and demonize immigrants is despicable, and in some cases, criminal.”
Side note on Democrats talking about themselves.

Thanks to the Flores consent decree, which created incentives for illegal aliens to use kids to enhance their chances of being allowed to stay in the U.S., 3rd-world kids have been used, exploited, abused, raped, kidnapped, sex-trafficked, etc., for years now by illegal aliens and the cartels who service them.
Congress knows, and has known for years, about the perverse incentives Flores created, and congress could easily have chosen to legislate the Flores consent decree out of existence years ago, but congress did not, for purely political reasons.
Congress was happy to let 3rd-world kids be kidnapped, raped, and otherwise abused, for years, so long as it facilitated the march of illegal alien hordes across our southern border.
And now these same filthy hypocrites are lecturing the rest of us about using kids as pawns. Unbelievable.

Send them all to San Francisco. 20 million of them.
Drop them all off in front of Nancy Pelosi’s house.
“The extent of this Administration’s cynicism and cruelty cannot be overstated,”
Is it cruel to send desperate people to be with those who have expressed the most support for those people? In my view, this seems like a match made in heaven.
Brilliant! Double down on their rhetoric. You say these people are great for the economy and law abiding good people, have at ’em.
Of course the chances of anyone actually showing up later for their asylum hearing plummet if they’re hiding out in a sanctuary city. Though if the chances are already low, then this won’t make any difference.
How about releasing them in Alaska or Puerto Rico?
Howland Island instead.
Subotai Bahadur
“Plummeting” from 1% to 0% isn’t much of a plummet. They wouldn’t show up anyway.
Just make sure you send them to heavily blue states. Carrying coals to Newcastle. And the lefties are compelled by their higher morality (generally higher than us in many ways) to welcome the great unwashed with open arms.
“Carrying coals to Newcastle. “
Right. Since you mention it, everyday, there are a number of trains, each with over 100 coal cars, carrying coal from Wyoming to El Paso. Why not have a collapsible something, say plywood floors, a port-a-potty, bottles of water, and a tarp for shade, and load some of those cars up with people of illegal immigration status, and ship them to Denver? Denver is all sanctuary city. These people would fit right in on the 16th Street Mall. Once in Wyoming, the plywood could be stacked at the end of the car, the port-a-pot unloaded, and the tarps rolled up for shipping back. Of course, once one them gets mained, then we’ll hear about it.
“Is he serious or trying to get Congress to finally reform our immigration laws?”
Our immigration laws don’t need to be ‘reformed’ (a euphamism for amnesty). They aren’t ‘broken’. They are just not enforced by the bureaucracy and just about all of Washington D.C. that is all for dissolving our borders and destroying our sovereignty and national identity. Go go globalism.
Touche!
Say it again!!!!!!!!!
The fatal flaw in the whole structure is the bizarre way they handle (or, rather, don’t handle) “asylum” claims. Something which could be fixed in a short afternoon’s work if Washington was interested.
Great idea. Drop them off in SF, Berkeley, Mill Valley, Tiburon, San Mateo, Palo Alto and Santa Cruz. thx.
All that empty space going to waste in San Mateo central park and at Crystal Springs dam? Its a crime!
Send them all to California. It is a shithole state already, and they have stolen the votes of all who would oppose them with their crooked “ballot harvesting” schemes. Let California go right down the filthy rathole they have created. Let the dirty bastards stew in their own juice.
Glory be to Donald Trump!
I hope he has the guts to do it.
Poor Rags-Rump, reduced to slinking around, ambushing with a down vote here and there. Kind of sneaky, like Trayvon, yet nowhere near as tragic.
Force them to put their money where they mouth is.
FYI
“….Democratic Senator Dick Durbin spend much of December, January and February trying to win an amnesty for at least 3 million illegal immigrants, which would have ensured a flood of new legal workers for jobs in Chicago and other cities….”
“Trump’s Immigration Policy Gets Jobs, Higher Wages for 600 African Americans
President Donald Trump’s enforcement of immigration laws has delivered hundreds of jobs at higher wages to sidelined African Americans in Chicago after a Swiss-owned bakery was penalized for employing roughly 800 illegals.
The good news was admitted in a Chicago Sun-Times article….”
https://www.breitbart.com/midterm-election/2018/02/19/trump-immigration-policy-gets-jobs-higher-wages-600-african-americans/
So……..600 Americans can do the same work as 800 illegal aliens…..?
I believe in giving credit when it is due. From what I have seen, most Mexicans have a good work ethic, I do not think that is the case in our inner cities.
Cloward and Piven California!
Obama did this as an “in your face” to the Tea Party. He would load up buses and drop them off all over the country until the towns got wise. Some of them force the buses to turn around. There was one such case in OC CA.
He also did that in the 2008 Democrat Party Primaries.
Several of the personal blog/news sites I visited at that time were run by Democrat Feminists (later to turn into PUMAs – Party Unity My Ass).
They gave evidence of how online screen names were hijacked along with their web sites – with the hijackers posting FAKE messages that the web site owner was switching from Hilary to Obama. Also the witnessed bus loads of Obama Chicago thugs who flooded the Iowa Democrat Party caucuses and forced the ladies there through fights and intimidation to back Obama.
Obama really did steal the 2008 Democrat primaries from Hillary.
Sorry for the digression here.
Surely the people in those sanctuary cities will be delighted to have these immigrants arrive there. After all, they will then be protected from deportation if and when any lack of asylum status is discovered,
If the stories about needles and feces on the streets of San Francisco are accurate, the migrants may decide to go home out of disgust for the filth they encounter.
Do it Donald. Drop them off in front to Ed Markey and Big Chief Warren’s homes. Oh that’s right, Markey doesn’t live in Massachusetts anymore.
Mr. President, I am humbled in your presence. Begin the four hour clock.
Yeah, LA, NY, San Fran, Seattle, Chicago, etc. should all be happy to take in these MS 13 types.
They’d fit right in.
Don’t forget Portland and the state of Oregon. Dem kate brown LOVES her some illegals.
If only it could be implemented where the illegals displace the homeless.
Declare these sanctuary cities as “no-go” by ICE and enforce elsewhere… flood the zone..
What retribution? Sanctuary cities and their states are already going as hard as they can against Trump.
Does the left even know how insane they are? chuck todd hand wringing over this move being ‘possibly illegal!’ Busing illegals to sanctuary cities is possibly illegal??? These people have absolutely lost their freaking minds. Best President ever, Donald J. Trump.
We sould create zones of sanctuary in these disgusting cities. Then deny all Federal Benefits in the zones and block them all in. Catch them all and release them in the zones and roadblock all exits.

corrected it for them.
And lets send the illegals to Hawaii to hang with the liberal judge. Of course if they want to swim to the mainland they’d be free to try.
There are two Theories of Responsibility: shared and relative. That said, emigration reform to mitigate the progress of collateral damage at both ends of the bridge and throughout.
Chicago, Philadelphia and other sanctuary cities have already made statements affirming their support for illegal aliens and said they would be happy to have them. Of course they had to say this because it was a trap Trump set for them. So if Trump proposes it and these cities embrace it, then how can Democrats claim it is a travesty? How can anyone declare it to be illegal? Time to send the buses.
You really think they’ll wind up in blue counties? They will wind up in the deepest red part of the state turning them purple then blue. They destroyed my small town. They’ll do the same to others.
