Remember this from back in mid-April?
(Politico) President Donald Trump on Friday said that his administration is “strongly looking at” releasing detained undocumented immigrants into so-called sanctuary cities — contradicting a previous statement from the White House that the policy was no longer being considered.
“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,” Trump wrote in a series of tweets. “The Radical Left always seems to have an Open Borders, Open Arms policy – so this should make them very happy!”
He continued: “California certainly is always saying, we want more people, and they want more people in their sanctuary cities, we will give them more people. We can give them an unlimited supply. And let’s see if they are so happy. They always say they have open arms. Let’s see if they have open arms.â€
Many Democrats complained about this floated plan, saying it demonizes illegals, attempting to find a way to reject send illegals to their areas that didn’t show that they didn’t want more illegals, while others said “sure, we’ll take them!” Hey, why won’t they take them all? They support illegal immigration, right? So they say. But, that’s more in theory than practice (via Jazz Shaw)
‘We’re Watching’: Locals Concerned After Migrants Arrive At Murrieta Border Control Facility
An unknown number of migrants were recently flown into Murrieta’s Border Patrol facility and some in the community were quick to stand in front of the gates to let them know they’re not welcome to stay.
Murrieta resident Bob Kowell says he’s all for legal immigration but told CBSLA’s Nicole Comstock that a source informed him of 100 undocumented immigrants being flown in from the Texas border to San Diego, then bussed to Murrieta over the weekend to be processed.
“We can be called a racist and we’ll just smile. Because we don’t care,†said Kowell. “We’re watching to see where and when they’ll move.â€
He said that a source told him that the migrants will eventually be dropped off at strip malls and bus stations throughout the valley.
The Murrieta Police Department, however, said that is not true.
According to the Murrieta Police Department, “Our chief Sean Hatton contacted the commander of the border patrol station in Murrieta and was assured from him that there was not going to be any immigrants released from the Murrieta border patrol station.â€
Murrieta is just to the southeast of the Los Angeles area. And, as Jazz points out in regards to Bob Kowell mentioned above
Wait a minute, here… isn’t that just what liberals protesting Trump accuse conservatives of saying? So what he’s basically telling us is he’s a big supporter, but not in his backyard. Got it.
Also
So it’s easy to show up at a march and blame President Trump for being cruel to the migrants. But everything seems to change when the problem moves from the border to your home town, I guess.
Yeah, it’s easy to show your wokeness and “caring” and stuff, but, not so much fun when it affects you directly.
