On CNN Thursday morning, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said that if the Trump administration attempts to pull federal funds from 'sanctuary cities,' New York will take them to court.
"New York City has half a million undocumented people, we want them to come forward and work with the police, if they see a drime or are a victim of crime. If they believe by talking to a police officer, they would get deported... they are not going to work with police," he said about the 'sanctuary cities' label.
"This is about human beings, families that came here," he said. "I want people to follow the law, I don't think people should violate our borders, but let's face it, this has been a problem in our country for hundreds of years."

“This is about human beings, families that came here,” he said. “I want people to follow the law, I don’t think people should violate our borders, but let’s face it, this has been a problem in our country for hundreds of years.”
So lets use the Constitution as it’s written to solve this hundreds year old problem De bla bla. I refuse to join the pity party for those here illegally. My employees, who are of Mexican and Guatemalan descent came here legally and it took one of them over 14 years to become a citizen. He’s really irate at what is happening here. We do need E-verify but that’s still not foolproof.
Good. Go into court and make a fool of yourself for claiming you city a criminal zone you idiot! You should be in jail for refusing to do your duty!
Entitled much?
“And I wonder what law he can cut where a city can force the feds to give them money while they OPENLY break the law?”
Case closed.
Trump will be washing the judicial system soon.
You probably can get copies from ancestry.com. I found my husband’s GFs induction notice for WWI there.
My wife says they're like petulant children who need a spanking and sent to their room without dinner.
There's a down payment on the border wall, courtesy of NYC.
The Trump ought to counter and arrest/prosecute anyone aiding and abetting in the breaking of Federal Immigration Law.....
Lets see if I understand this. Blasio is going to argue in court that the feds have to give him money so he can continue to violate US law.
That’s about right.
And if they can get the ‘right court’ to hear his case, he might get away with it.
It’s come to that.
