New York to remain a ‘sanctuary city’ for immigrants: de Blasio

New York will remain a “sanctuary city” for undocumented immigrants, Mayor de Blasio promised on Friday — even if Donald Trump makes good on his threats to yank federal funding in retaliation.

In fact, the city will reject federal aid that comes with objectionable “strings attached,” such as requiring local cops to turn over people they learn are here illegally, an action that, as a sanctuary city, New York won’t allow, he said.

“That may be a choice we have to make,” de Blasio told WNYC’s Brian Lehrer.

Good. Should help cut the federal deficit. Cut them off.

Donald Trump. Saving taxpayers' money before he even takes office.

NY can remain a “sanctuary city” as long as the people of New York are willing to pay for the shortfall.

Next year or even earlier, when the illegals come to really believe Trump will deport them, they will go home or and flood these elite sanctuary cities. Those, who go back to Mexico early, will have the best choices of housing and jobs. Those who wait will have no good choices in Mexico. So they will run to the elite sanctuary cities.

Let them flood these elite sanctuary cities.

On Trump’s first day in office stop every federal tax $ from going to these elite sanctuary cities.

Then, Trump’s new AG will enforce E Verification in every state/city in America. Any employer with illegals will face big fines and possible jail sentences.

Then, stand back and watch the elite rats get eaten up the less elite rats in their city and by the hordes of illegals in their cities fighting over a dwindling supply of housing, food and services.

Later, in a few weeks/months, those mayors if still in office or alive, will be meeting with Trump’s people behind closed doors to work out massive deportation of their former voting buddies, the illegals. They will have identified their illegals and be willing to pay for their transportation to Mexico.

Send Federal Marshals into these cities to arrest these city officials as accessories to crimes.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Each state needs to deport their criminal illegal aliens to New Yawk where they can be “protected” from “Trump supporters” by diaper pin boy, de Blasio.

[conservative98]

Good post.

[vooch]

Rand Paul already has a bill in congress yanking some federal funding for sanctuary cities

[blackbetty59]

Let those liberal elitists pony up to support their welfare-sucking illegals! I’m betting that a Trump Administration will find a way to enforce immigration law, regardless.

[stars & stripes forever]

SEDITION. Mayor de Blasio is an enemy of the state.

[tumblindice]

“the city will reject federal aid”
More tough talk from butt sore progressives. They will fold like lawn chairs.

“That may be a choice we have to make,” de Blasio told WNYC’s Brian Lehrer.

I understood that laws are supposed to be upheld, not broken. de Blasio should be arrested and charged with insurrection. ASAP.

[Grampa Dave]

Thanks.

Let these sanctuary cities attract the illegal criminals after Trump becomes president.

See how they fend when federal $’s are cut off and the illegals flock into their sanctuary cities.

[ronnie raygun]

Remaining sanctuary cities will find an influx of people running to the state for services and protection. A reverse cloward piven strategy, overwhelm the system into collapse. This big commie dope will not get relected so its a moot point

[kanawa]

Enforce the law or contribute to a lowering of the deficit. One way or the other, it's a win.

[sodpoodle]

The Insurrection Act of 1807 is the set of laws that govern the ability of the President of the United States to deploy troops within the United States to put down lawlessness, insurrection and rebellion. The laws are chiefly contained in 10 U.S.C. §§ 331–335.

[jazminerose]

Great! That should save the tax paying public a fortune.

[jazminerose]

Hit them in the bank accounts. It’ll hurt more.

[raybbr]

Is there anyone left in NY city that can stand up to this piece of garbage?
