Sue the politicians personally. They need to be held PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE.

The city budget should never be the cash cow to cover political incompetence.

“Thom’s the enemy. This is just a shallow ploy to look like he’s on the bandwagon.”

Agree 100%. This is the typical RINO play. Announce support of a bill that will never pass to for appearances to constituents. Then continue behind the scenes collaborating with Democrats on multi-trillion omnibus spending bills loaded with pork and funding of leftist NGO’s. Condemn the spending bill but vote for it because it is the “best we could get” and it “avoids a government shutdown”. Rinse and repeat. This is the GOP moderate playbook we’ve watched for over 50 years. Tillis fell right in step with McConnell, Romney, and others when he was elected to the Senate.

This scumbag needs primaried

Keep in mind, he may end up running against Roy Cooper in the General Election. If so, the Democrats will win this seat in NC.

The also need to be able to sue the NGOs for enabling them by bringing them here!

They will simply say they were acting under the direction of the federal government and they have the cashed checks to prove it.

I thought if you win the lawsuit, the loser has to pay your attorney fees and court costs be default. Is that not the case?

If a police officer directing traffic at a car wreck causes a tow truck operator to be killed . Then the city pays the poor grieving family.
Then if an already deported alien comes back and kills 2 while speeding 75 in a 35 zone.
Then yes, the city owes. Due to their decisions and actions.

Isn’t this guy a RINO bigtime. Looks like he is trying to make himself look good.

The bill should make it an irrebuttable presumption that a criminal that is not turned over to ICE at their request and that is released by a sanctuary jurisdiction and causes harm to another is irrebuttably presumed to be the negligent proximate cause of the loss and liable for the ensuing damages. This way all that has to be proved is ICE made the request and the defendant released them and bingo, the sanctuary jurisdiction has to pay the pot of gold for plaintiff’s damages
