President Trump has gone all-in on the proposal to send to sanctuary cities the asylum-seekers that under current law must be admitted to the United States while they await adjudication of their claims (90% of which historically are denied).

....So interesting to see the Mayor of Oakland and other Sanctuary Cities NOT WANT our currently “detained immigrants” after release due to the ridiculous court ordered 20 day rule. If they don’t want to serve our Nation by taking care of them, why should other cities & towns?

Democrats must change the Immigration Laws FAST. If not, Sanctuary Cities must immediately ACT to take care of the Illegal Immigrants - and this includes Gang Members, Drug Dealers, Human Traffickers, and Criminals of all shapes, sizes and kinds. CHANGE THE LAWS NOW!

Just out: The USA has the absolute legal right to have apprehended illegal immigrants transferred to Sanctuary Cities. We hereby demand that they be taken care of at the highest level, especially by the State of California, which is well known or its poor management & high taxes!

The best explanation of the hypocrisy of the Democrat sanctuary city advocates that I have seen was offered by Tucker Carlson on his eponymous show Friday. Ifyou ave not seen it, the nine-minute video is well worth your time.

The Democrats have nothing substantive to offer in rebuttal, and so resort to empty rhetoric about “hate” and ”pawns.”

Trump knows that if he is able to follow through and apply a little Cloward-Piven love to his enemies, they will have to cave.
