Pop icon Cher said Sunday that Los Angeles, California, “can’t take care of its own” residents, much less newly arrived illegal and legal immigrants.
Cher said she failed to understand how the city of Los Angeles in the sanctuary state of California could afford to admit and take care of any more immigrants when city officials have failed to care for homeless, veterans, and poverty-stricken Americans.
“I Understand Helping struggling Immigrants,but MY CITY (Los Angeles) ISNT TAKING CARE OF ITS OWN.WHAT ABOUT THE 50,000+Citizens WHO LIVE ON THE STREETS.PPL WHO LIVE BELOW POVERTY LINE,& HUNGRY? If My State Can’t Take Care of Its Own(Many Are VETS)How Can it Take Care Of More,” Cher said.
The post came after President Trump threatened to bus border crossers and illegal aliens into sanctuary cities and states, like California, if the country’s asylum laws were not changed. White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders confirmed that the White House is considering the plan.
In response, Democrat mayors across the country — like New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and Oakland, California Mayor Libby Schaaf — have welcomed bringing illegal aliens and border crossers to their cities.
While left-wing mayors say they will continue to admit any and all illegal and legal immigrants, Los Angeles is home to the second largest homeless population in the country, second to only New York City. About 50,000 residents of Los Angeles are homeless and about 7.5 percent of California’s American Veteran population is homeless.
As the city remains crippled by homelessness and skyrocketing housing costs, Los Angeles metro area is also home to the second largest illegal alien population — with nearly a million illegal aliens living in the region...

My husband is up at our place in rural Coloeado this weekend. The closest town is Durango. We haven't been up there in several months, maybe close to a year.
He said it's complete mayhem in Durango. Traffic is insane, they are putting up "condos" instead of houses (this is a mountain town), pot shops are sprouting up, homeless, etc.
There are no jobs, to speak of up there. You either bring your own money or I don't know what you do--be one of the lucky few who make it in real estate?
He's up there because our well is broken, so he's spending the week up there getting it fixed. Our neighbor referred a guy to us and he comes out to do the work but he doesn't have any help so my husband pretty much tagged along as his "assistant" all day (learning a ton of stuff--!). The guy said he pays $17 an hour but he can't find anyone. He knows it's not a liveable wage but it's what he can afford, probably more than he can afford. People work for a week or two and never show back up. Borrow money, have drug problems, etc. The kids who live north of Durango all come from money (typically Californians) and they don't work.
I am rambling but just pouring out my thoughts. I just don't see how much longer we can keep on like this. But my biggest fear is that we do...just keep circling the drain. A little worse every year and no one seems to notice.
Well, I notice. I am extremely sad and worried for my kid's futures.
Truth. As enjoyable as PawPaw Trump’s jab is, once in the sanctuaries they can fan out from there. Not good!
Maybe Cher had a transient moment of lucidity.
Well that's easy Cher...You and some of your millionaire friends need to pony up some of those millions the rich aren't entitled to and pay the way for the illegals...It's the Democrat way...
I wonder if he deliberately skied into that tree?
The solution is to not allow them to live in non-designated
“Sanctuary Cities” or “sanctuary States”
Round them up from around the country and ship them off to designated areas.
And of course, go after anyone who hires them,or knowingly houses them, outside of designated areas.
Agreed. Slap ankle bracelets on them to encourage them to stay in their assigned neighborhoods, shock collars for further incentive, and myocardial explosives to absolutely, positively guarantee it! j/k
I have relatives that live in Chico California. The shelters the town built for those who lost their homes in the Camp Fire are now attracting homeless from all over the state. Crime, drugs and gangs are now on the rise.
Cher has never been known as the brighest bulb in the chandelier. It’s her fellow democrats who have brought non-Americans in to vote democrat.
Betting that if bammy were president, and brought in millions of non-Americans she would be praising him. Wait! he already did! and sanctuary cities willingly took them in!
Now that it’s Trump, idiot cher opposes the very same thing that bammy did.
Cher will apologize for her tweet before the week is over.
I'm ok with that. LA and NYC (and the likes) can't get any blue-er. So the local democrat vote goes from 89% to 91%? My only concern is how the census is affected for House of Reps seats and federal government subsidies. CUT THEM OFF. Illegals should not be recognized as citizens for purposes of National Treasury pillage.
NOT IN MY NEIGBORHOOD sez Cher!!!! We predicted this before she opened her trap.
Cher continued: "Maybe we should erect some sort of, dunno, barrier or other structure so that they don't overwhelm us and force us to squander our limited resources on illegal aliens foreign invaders border-violators non-Americans.
Regards,
Cher,
Just fill this out and ask all your entertainment industry buddies to each fill one out also, it will be just fine.

Where’s that “ I got you babe” spirit?
Besides never trust a woman with a flat ass
Maybe in the short run. Once they are over-innundated with several million illegals, and wading through poo up to their navels, the money people will leave in droves to other locales... kind of a balancing out. Then, once the abandoned legal citizens realize they’ve been stuck with the problems, they’ll be begging for the Feds to come in and remove the illegals back across the border like they should have done in the first place. I figure Nevada, Utah, Montana... they’ll probably pick up a few more congressional seats and electoral votes, but they’ll inherit the same stupidity that led to California being the stupidest state west of the Mississippi.
Cher’s afraid a few hundred illegals or homeless— or both— might camp out in her yard.
Bwahaha.
One minute, it's "Open Borders!"
The next minute, not so much.
Welcome to the real world.
