THOUSANDS Hold ‘Emergency Protest’ in Support of Muslim Immigration and Open Borders...
Gateway Pundit ^ | 1/25/17 | Jim Hoft

THOUSANDS of New York City residents protested for open borders and illegal immigration tonight at Washington Square Park.
New York City is a sanctuary city. There are at least 750,000 illegal immigrants in the city.

The New Yorkers were also upset with the Trump ban on immigrants from terrorist countries.

Trump ordered a pause in immigration from Syria and the top six terrorist countries.
New York City Democrats are very upset with this and took to the streets.

Grifters indeed.
Pity Harold Robbins wasn't around to do a third “Carpetbaggers” story...

Wonder how many of these “protesters” are running out of sick leave.....no, wait - they’re rats. Never mind.

“The New Yorkers were also upset with the Trump ban on immigrants from terrorist countries.”

I think I can see a possible compromise: NYC can have all the Muslim immigrant terrorists that the rest of the country doesn’t want.

this is an obviously fake tweet (no blue check mark) and needs to be removed from FR immediately.

New York's Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, who is a FLAMING libtard, has stated: "New York has a long history of welcoming immigrants and embracing diversity. Now is the time for us to stand-up for those values more than ever. As New York's Attorney General, I will do that by using my office's authority to fight President Trump's dangerous and misguided immigration policies every step of the way."

So here we have the person supposedly charged with upholding the LAW, and this commie piece of excrement states that he is going to use his office for exactly the opposite purpose: to help illegal invaders break the law. I sincerely believe that Eric Schneiderman should be recalled from his office but in libtard NY, it will never happen.

This immigration rally was organized by CAIR, which has known terrorist ties. That didn't stop "thousands" of absolute fools from falling for their deliberately "red flag to a bull" rhetoric deliberately chosen to separate these idiots from any semblance of reason. You say a few inflammatory phrases which turn the adherent into a victim and therefore deserving of sympathy and "special treatment", and they will follow you anywhere without a second thought. Having hooked them by whatever phrases do the job, CAIR then uses these idiots simply as body mass to supposedly support the CAIR point of view. "See all these people here? They agree with us" is the implication.

Of course, the Puerto Rican representative masquerading as the NYC Council Speaker, Melissa Mark-Vivierito, was all over this, declaring Trump unfair to her real constituency, the Hispanic illegals who suck resources from taxpayers like crazy, with the full aid and abetting by Mark-Viverito, any other Hispanic-surnamed local pol, and the brain dead libtard councilman Gerald Nadler. He is so far to the left that there's no more room to go.

Simply disgusting, to see these people show more loyalty to criminals than to legal residents of NYC, who after all, pay the bills.

Trump should send federal marshals to NYC and arrest the mayor.

Absolutely! And I would cheer them on.

I would suspect 750,000 would be huge drain on water, sewer, emergency rooms, and law enforcement resources, thus making taxes higher and destroying service to the legal residents.

Better idea.

Cut it off at the city limits, push it out to sea, and pull the plug.

750,000 . . . If we don’t get a handle on deporting the illegals and putting a moratorium on immigration from third world countries, our country is toast.

The protesters in support of Muslims and illegal immigrants surely have thought through how they are going the replace the federal funding that will be withdrawn from NYC?

Perhaps Saudi Arabia, the UN, or other terrorist Muslim countries will fill in the loss of income to the city? Or the mayor can again raise taxes. Apparently they do not need the federal funds.

Maybe now the Dhimmicrats will finally get the message that
the real American people are SICK OF THE CLINTONS.

Right now, Trump is being merciful & gracious to them out of
pity I suppose; and they do not have the influence they once
had. I’m not sure they aren’t plotting to try to regain the
lofty position they once held in the past. Neither of them
looks very well & aren’t getting any younger. Bill slept
through Hillary’s big convention speech.

I also think Trump may not want to use valuable resources
trying to prosecute Hillary.

The Clintons have had comeback after comeback but I think the last blowout is their last.
They've carried off bushel baskets of money and they still have influence in some quarters.
