Sanctuary Cities Vow to Make ‘1 Million Immigrants’ Citizens to Oppose Trump
Breitbart ^ | 7/4/17 | Assemblyman Tim Donnelly

Posted on 07/05/2017 1:57:43 PM PDT by Lera

“Sanctuary cities” across the country are pledging to make one million immigrants into U.S. citizens this year, partly as a response to the policies of President Donald Trump.

According to the Washington Examiner, the initiative is being pushed by a group called “Naturalize NOW!”—which is tying its campaign to patriotic American holidays like the Fourth of July.

Announced on Flag Day, the Examiner reports:

[t]he ‘Naturalize NOW!’ campaign, which includes liberal and progressive groups and elected officials, heralded the mayors of the cities in joining the national effort.

Among the cities cited in an Independence Day notice from Mi Familia: Atlanta, GA; Boston, MA; Cleveland, OH; Charlotte, NC; Chicago, IL; Dallas, TX; Dayton, OH; Jersey City, NJ; Knoxville, TN; Los Angeles, CA; Miami, FL; Miami-Dade County, FL; Montgomery County, MD; Paterson, NJ; Pittsburgh, PA; New York City, NY; Salt Lake County, UT; San Francisco, CA; Seattle, CA; South Gate, CA & Tucson, AZ.

Most of these jurisdictions are sanctuary cities and counties.

Los Angeles, which has long been a “sanctuary city” under a local ordinance known as “Special Order 40,” has been in the hot seat nationally ever since President Trump publicly befriended Jamiel Shaw, Sr. Shaw’s 17-year-old son with the same name was gunned down by an illegal alien gang member released onto the streets of LA instead of being turned over to federal authorities for deportation.

The white liberals are going to wake up one day and realize they’re in the minority and will no longer have access to political power.

If they are legal immigrants, who cares because most legal immigrants when they become citizens seem to distance themselves from the rabble. The downside is their children seem to retrograde back to the notion their allegiance is with their parents homeland.

Cities have the power to grant citizen ships? Has the constitution heard about this?

Sure, why not. Jerry Brown enters into treaties with China and the mayor of Los Angeles grants American citizenship.

Illegal aliens are not immigrants and have no way to become citizens.

Immigrants are people who applied in their home country to be Americans, paid their fees, waited their turn, learned the language and complied with the laws.

They don’t love illegal aliens either.

Sanctuary cities are notoriously dependent on the Federal teat. When that goes dry they will run crying for a new mama.

How do cities confer citizenship? I thought naturalization was done by the federal Immigration and Naturalization Services, a branch of Homeland Security, which is part of the Executive Branch of government, atop which is President Trump.

"immigrants" or "illegal alien invaders" ?? -- Overthrowing our government with the assistance of foreign nationals is frowned upon ... violently.

They can make them “citizens” of their city, if they like, I suppose but they cant make them US citizens.

How are they going to “make” illegal aliens into citizens?

There is NO path. No legal way.

And the queues for legal citizenship are already pretty full of non-line jumpers.

Hey, if someone follows the rules and goes through all the steps for citizenship (about 3 years if you do everything perfectly) I will be there next to him/her and applaud and shake hands when they take the oath:

“I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God.”

Why does the left think this is some sort of threat? They don’t actually believe their lies about fear of immigrants b/c they are not white do they?

That was the whole point of the illegal alien inundation.
Import enough people to out vote the citizens that believe in the rule of law.

This is very good news. It’ll guarantee about 2.5 to 3 votes *for* Trump in response.

DJT needs to address this...quietly...just in case they're serious.A hold should be put on those with Green Cards being given citizenship.Also,all legal tricks should be used to get Green Cards revoked.Unpaid parking tickets...littering citations....unpaid child support...drug/alcohol detox...anything!

That would also be the day that they learn from their POC masters that they (the white liberals) will no longer be tolerated to live.
