Helping out sanctuary cities
« on: April 11, 2019, 10:26:19 PM »
Apparently Trump was wanting ICE to reduce jail crowding by shipping some of the detainees to sanctuary cities:

You would think Nancy Pelosi would jump at the chance to protect the downtrodden by sheltering them in her district, but not so much:

“The extent of this administration’s cynicism and cruelty cannot be overstated,” said Pelosi spokeswoman Ashley Etienne. “Using human beings — including little children — as pawns in their warped game to perpetuate fear and demonize immigrants is despicable.”

Yeah, using children as pawns is terrible, like the idea of uniting children with their law breaking parents as an excuse for open borders, or having them lobby for (or write) gun control laws.

The dems already have control of those "sanctuary" cites. They want the above mentioned illegals to stay in cities not yet fully under their control to serve as an overwhelming dem voter base for when after they get amnesty pushed.

No amnesty necessary.  Illegals already vote in our elections.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.
