Featured Sanctuary City Mayors Get a Reality Check in Heated House Hearing | How Sanctuary City Policies Are Failing—and Their Mayors Have No Answers

If there was ever a moment that exposed just how out of touch some of America’s biggest sanctuary city mayors are, it was yesterday’s House Oversight Committee hearing. Four mayors—representing Boston, Chicago, Denver, and New York City—were hauled in to defend their policies, and to no one’s surprise, it didn’t go well for them.

Republican lawmakers didn’t hold back, hammering these officials with hard numbers and real-world consequences of their so-called “sanctuary” policies. These cities have turned into revolving doors for illegal immigrants, many with criminal records, thanks to local laws that block cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. The mayors, on the other hand, spent much of the hearing either dodging responsibility or insisting that their approach somehow improves public safety.

Punk ass mayor of Denver looked like the little dweeb he is. How embarrassing for Denver, if they had any capacity to be embarrassed.

“They’ve been recommended for prosecution.”

Where’d you get that from?

If it’s in the article I sure didn’t see it.

What a joke, Boston Mayor Wu, the racist, with her Ash Wed. Cross on her forehead. I live 3000 mile from Boston but the stories I have read make her one of the most loathsome POS that comes to my mind.

I agree with you about Wu. (Hey...that rhymes!)

As much as the Denver mayor came-off as a punk, IMO Wu portrayed herself as one arrogant, sanctimonious wank during the hearings.

New York mayor,Adams, is trying to survive and seemed forthright. Johnson of Chicago was totally clueless. The only way Johnson got elected was via ballot cheating.

I’ve raised 4-H steer projects sharper than Johnson.

They should have all been detained as part of an ongoing investigation.

“AntiCatholic, are you?”

I’ll try to make this simple. Wu is a Marxist, racist and a PHONY Catholic. Capiche?
