If it were me, there would have been an "incident". This is why I could never be a cop.

I still think he should have just done it. On a large scale. I highly doubt Oakland could handle 100,000 illegals suddenly being delivered unexpectedly. The reason the leftist politicians are crying about this, in my opinion, is they know such a maneuver would likely bankrupt their cities, their voters would get mad, and maybe vote them out.


Putting their hypocrisy on display is all well and good, but ultimately pointless. Everyone already knows they're hypocrites. The voters who elect these people don't care. But they might care about their cities going bankrupt.

Peggy Noonan wrote a very good explaination of this in a column

How Global Elites Forsake Their Countrymen ? Peggy Noonan

It was as good an explanation as I’d heard. But there was a fundamental problem with the decision that you can see rippling now throughout the West. Ms. Merkel had put the entire burden of a huge cultural change not on herself and those like her but on regular people who live closer to the edge, who do not have the resources to meet the burden, who have no particular protection or money or connections. Ms. Merkel, her cabinet and government, the media and cultural apparatus that lauded her decision were not in the least affected by it and likely never would be.

Nothing in their lives will get worse. The challenge of integrating different cultures, negotiating daily tensions, dealing with crime and extremism and fearfulness on the street—that was put on those with comparatively little, whom I’ve called the unprotected. They were left to struggle, not gradually and over the years but suddenly and in an air of ongoing crisis that shows no signs of ending—because nobody cares about them enough to stop it.

The powerful show no particular sign of worrying about any of this. When the working and middle class pushed back in shocked indignation, the people on top called them “xenophobic,” “narrow-minded,” “racist.” The detached, who made the decisions and bore none of the costs, got to be called “humanist,” “compassionate,” and “hero of human rights.”

Maybe this is why asylum cities are so mad that Trump offered to settle asylum immigrants in their cities.
A good article pointing out the cost of the new popularity of "asylum immigrants".
https://www.foxnews.com/us/the-cost...on-migrants-cost-us-taxpayers-billions-a-year
Because most immigrants are now families with special needs while in custody and needing more assistance in the 4-5 years they are living in the US awaiting hearings and endless appeals, the cost to taxpayers to subsidize the immigrant family is rising. $100B/yr and they never get off public assistance.

Just to be clear, below is the citizenship question that is causing all the hub-bub... it does not ask documentation status (i.e. are you here illegally)



And, just for comparison, a very similar (exactly the same?) question appears every year on the ACS, here's the one from 2019:



And, more importantly, from the 2000 Census long form:

No. Trump can't win. Don't you know? Don't you remember? ORANGE MAN BAAAAAD!

Good analysis on the Supreme Court review of adding the citizenship question back onto the census:

National Review: In the Census Litigation, the Trump Administration Should Prevail
As a legal matter, it isn’t even a very close call.
https://www.nationalreview.com/2019...tion-the-trump-administration-should-prevail/

MSM is calling out the "conservatives" on the SCOTUS as bending to do Trump's bidding. My read is exactly the opposite... this is slam-dunk within the powers Congress delegated to the Commerce Secretary and it's the liberal wing contorting themselves into pretzels to #resist.

Should be 9-0 and if Congress doesn't like the results, change the law and take back their delegated powers.

The U.S. Attorney's Office in Boston has indicted Massachusetts state judge Shelley Richmond and a court officer with obstruction of justice tied to an effort to impede an ICE officer from taking custody of a person who had been in the U.S. illegally, according to court docs

According to the indictment, a person by the name of "A.S." had been charged by local police with narcotics possession and for being a fugitive from justice in Pennsylvania. The judge allegedly worked with a defense attorney to let the man leave through the back exit to the court

A little more info in these articles, including that the "court officer" allegedly lied to the grand jury! Ouch!

They stepped in some serious doo-doo.

And yet the illegal is out again on bail, awaiting another day in court. No flight risk there!

Pope Francis has donated $500,000 (£387,000) to help migrants stranded in Mexico as they try to reach the US border, the Vatican said.

The money comes from the Catholic Church's Peter's Pence fund, from church collections around the world.

Is the Vatican directly supporting illegal immigration?

I was wondering where the ICE/CBP request for DNA testing was coming from... now I know:

NR: Fake Illegal Alien Families
https://www.nationalreview.com/2019/05/border-crisis-illegal-immigrants-use-fake-family-members/

“Borderwide,” the Daily Star revealed, “federal officials said they had seen about 3,100 fraudulent family claims since April 2018, alongside about 260,000 migrant family members.”


In another outrageous case disclosed this month, Border Patrol agents discovered a “recycled” illegal-alien child who had been used by at least three “families” of unrelated adults attempting to get into the U.S. from Mexico. The practice is orchestrated by transnational criminal organizations to increase smuggling profits. One Guatemalan woman in South Carolina recycled children 13 times for payments of $1,500 each.

Yes, habitually. It gets old.

"Border Patrol agents discovered a “recycled” illegal-alien child"

Isn't that a part of AOC's Green New Deal? You don't want to use them just once and throw them away!

"Border Patrol agents discovered a “recycled” illegal-alien child"

Isn't that a part of AOC's Green New Deal? You don't want to use them just once and throw them away!

Reminds me of the Emilio Estevs (sp) movie from the '80's where he's in the back of a trash truck and the black guy says something about throwing away a perfectly good white boy
