Me, I think Trump should ship more illegals to Sanctuary City San Francisco, let them deal with all that comes with it
Bay Area Protesters Try to Block Base Entrance Before Immigration Operation
More than 200 protesters demonstrated and tried to block the entrance to Coast Guard Island in Alameda, Calif., on Thursday morning.
Federal officials said on Wednesday that the base was being used as an operations center for federal immigration raids that were expected to start later this week in the San Francisco Bay Area.
But President Trump announced on Thursday morning that federal agents would not be deployed to San Francisco after tech leaders convinced him that Mayor Daniel Lurie, a Democrat, was making progress on public safety.
It was unclear whether federal agents still intended to conduct operations elsewhere in the Bay Area.
Maybe Trump could do the operation in California’s capital city?
As the Alameda protest grew on Thursday morning, the playful spirit that has animated recent anti-ICE protests in Portland, Ore., was also on display. While protesters circled the intersection singing peace songs, a woman in a clown outfit made balloon animals, a folk singer strummed a guitar and an artist set up an easel to paint the gathering.
Huh
At least one person was arrested, another was taken to the hospital and a pastor was shot in the face with a less-lethal munition in a violent clash with federal agents and about 100 California Highway Patrol riot police in Alameda today.
Guess the NY Times missed that part. Meanwhile
ICE arrests and deportations rising sharply in North Carolina, with more expected
Since President Donald Trump returned to the White House, arrests of people accused of being in the country illegally have ramped up in North Carolina.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested about three times the number of people in the first half of this year in Mecklenburg County compared to the same time last year.
That’s a steeper increase than the rest of the state, where data shows at least 2.6 times the number of arrests compared to last year.
Excellent!
In the two-part episode “Past Tense” of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, we learned that parts of San Francisco, specifically in the Mission District, would be a walled “Sanctuary” district for the lazy, shiftless, and unemployed. Alas! the show got the year wrong, saying it happened in 2024, but the idea of isolating the illegals in such sounds pretty good to me. Use it as an immigration detention center before shipping them out to Mexico, Guatemala, and Antarctica!
Our good friends on the left were utterly appalled that President Trump pardoned the Capitol kerfufflers, even though the majority of them were convicted of only a single misdemeanor count and had already served their sentences, so they had their records expunged but did not escape punishment. “No one is above the law!” the left whined. Why, then, do the left want to avoid our immigration laws?
Well Dana there are many different laws and above laws treaties and the Constitution. We signed treaties saying that we would accept refugees. And the Constitution provides for due process and court decisions concerning laws
The number of migrants in detention fell from Aug to Sept (according to ICE) from 61000 to 59000. Almost all those that you read about being arrested are released in less than 4 days. The streets are nothing but theater so that people will stop asking when the Trump/Epstein files and videos will be released. Remember Epstein videos everything.
As far as San Francisco goes, I lived there for a total of about 36 months mostly mid 80s and in the Mission. At that time gentrification was already happening.
Both the average cost and the median cost of a house in the Mission are around 1 million dollars. Apparently many people believe it is a very nice place to live.
The homicide rate in San Francisco is at historical lows. About 50% lower that the state of Alabama. Property crime is high, don’t leave cameras in rental cars!
Ohhh and fact check everything you are told. Even from me! Look for reliable data. And be most skeptical of any “facts” if “data” that you WANT to believe. Like the Mission is a shit hole
