Now that Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen has wisely decided to start arresting the heads of sanctuary cities, a decision must be made about which head will roll first. The list of sanctuary local governments runs from tiny one party one horse towns to the monster of them all California.
From a PR stand point it would be great to take down California and frog walk Governor Moon Beam out of his office; but that would not happen if the Golden State is the first target. They have resources that rival the DoJs legal staff and Republicans would get pummeled in the media every day until the case was resolved. Bad idea!
Logistics dictates that the place to start the process is at the lower end with a smaller government. That leaves hundreds of locations to choose from but also presents a happy problem. A wise choice of where to strike first can include a few bonuses not immediately obvious but available nevertheless.
Of course the DoJ could pick just any small town with a 30 something Democrat mayor looking to make a name for himself and hit him hard enough to make him fold with just a carefully constructed letter. That would achieve two important goals: It would end a sanctuary city and more importantly charge a defendant that has no chance to fight off the charges thus insuring a legal victory.
In this scenario the defendant would be happy to make a complete and government friendly allocution. Most of them would say just about anything to stay out of prison.
Nevertheless, there are a few bigger benefits to be realized by making the proper selection for the first case. The place to go would be a small town in a big news center, one that would not have the endless resources to fight off the DoJs prosecution.
The first sanctuary town that fits this profile is Jersey City, New Jersey whose mayor is Steve Fulop. Jersey City sits directly across the Hudson River from New York City, the media capital of America; and even the dumbest media fool could find Jersey City.
Jersey City was proclaimed a sanctuary city a year ago so Mayor Fulop could be among the first to scream in obvious pain at Donald Trumps election as president.
So Steve Fulop is looking good but there is more to be considered in his case.
Although the media has done its best to hide the fact, Democrat United States Senator from New Jersey Robert Menendez is going to be retired for his corruption. If Menendez is convicted, he will be removed from office requiring a replacement appointed by Democrat Governor Phil Murphy who has already declared New Jersey a sanctuary state. The logical front runner for that appointment is Steve Fulop.
Young mister Fulop is already in his fifth year as the mayor of one of the largest cities in New Jersey and a Marine combat veteran. He could be a threat to our liberty for a long time.
Hitting Fulop now with a charge he cannot beat; sitting down in a United States Court House in the media center of the country, will make him a glowing red example of the DoJs seriousness about ending sanctuary cities.
Moreover, it will stop the career of a leftist that could be in office for forty or more years.
Jersey City and Steve Fulop is the place to start prosecuting these sanctuary city criminals and get the most bang for our buck.
Round them all up at the exact same time
Rahm goes first.
Start with Mayor Jim Kenney (’RAT-Phila).
Oakland and Los Angeles cannot be far behind.
Round them all up at the exact same time
And we are right behind the Statue of Liberty. Need to send the right message and what the Statue does not represent. None of that Emma Lazarus poem nonsense.
I nominate Governor Jerry Brown of the People’s Democratic Socialist Republic of Kaliphornia.
Conservatives should tread lightly on this subject. The last thing we want to encourage is a ever more powerful Federal Govt pushing the states around.
One day a Dem will be sitting in the White House, and we need to protect states rights
Jersey City is a prime example of “replacement Americans” filling areas formerly inhabited by Americans. Plenty of braceros as blue-collar replacements and Indians and Filipinos as white-collar replacements. I don’t even care if they are here legally - it is a disgrace.
On a positive note, Jersey City is expected to pass Newark as our largest city in NJ. Newark’s tribal government rails against those businesses and developers that invest in Jersey City instead of paying tribute to Newark.
Nobody has decided to arrest the heads of sanctuary cities.
I am of the opinion the Comrade Murphy should be the first arrested, as soon as he declares New Jersey a sanctuary state.
Mayors, city council members and police chiefs need to be arrested.
See tag for the insanity of our time...
I’ll miss Christie, but he didn’t do much about illegals either; everyone knows you’d have ghost towns across north Jersey in particular without them. I’d love to know how we got to a point where a school system, which is allowed to verify a student lives in the district, is not allowed to determine whether or not the student is even here legally. If that changed, they’d stop coming.
I agree with starting with the small fry and working up. By time they get to the Medium/Big guys, the law would have been settled and they’d have fewer ploys to play.
Nothing can TRUMP Governor Jerry brown head of THE sanctuary STATE
We have a winner! Democrat mayor of Oakland says she will go to jail before she cooperates and ends sanctuary city status of her city. Let’s help her out. Lock her up.
