Putting illegal aliens over U.S. citizens, that’s the Democratic Party way. Also, a rebuke for federal law
In Rebuke to Trump, Cuomo Pardons 18 Immigrants
In a jab at President Trump’s promises to crack down on illegal immigration, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo on Wednesday pardoned 18 immigrants in an effort to free them from the threat of deportation or other immigration-related issues.
The pardons targeted those who had committed low-level offenses and had demonstrated significant rehabilitation since their convictions, Alphonso David, the governor’s chief counsel, said in an interview.
“New York is a state of immigrants,†Mr. David said. “And most of these individuals made mistakes decades ago, and have been contributing members to our society.â€
With the new slate of pardons, Mr. Cuomo nearly tripled the number he had issued explicitly to stave off deportations, his office said. Before Wednesday, the governor had pardoned seven people for that purpose.
What would be humor based irony here would be if ICE suddenly picked these illegal aliens up, stating that they hadn’t been on the deportation radar beforehand.
But, this is all about #Resist, and the illegal aliens are the pawns. Does anyone think Cuomo really cares about the illegals? Well, if they’re trimming his hedges and cutting his lawn, sure, but, otherwise, they are just objects to be used to jab at Trump.
