Chicago Alderman: We Invited Migrants by Being a Sanctuary, ‘Nobody’ Thought It Would Lead to Current Situation
Breitbart ^ | 01/04/2024 | IAN HANCHETT

On Thursday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “America Reports,” Chicago Alderman Brian Hopkins acknowledged that city leaders did send a message that anyone could come by being a sanctuary city — although he doesn’t agree with sending that message — but nobody “had any idea that it would lead to this today” when the city became a sanctuary city in the 1980s and the current situation “was completely unpredicted and it’s completely unprecedented and nobody thought a sanctuary city would mean what it means.”

Co-host Sandra Smith asked, [relevant exchange begins around 3:30] “[D]idn’t leadership in your city say, we’re a sanctuary city, all are welcome, wasn’t that the message?”

Just for sending those buses, Abbot ought to at least be in the running for Trump’s VP.

***a sanctuary city****

Be careful what you ask for, you just might get it. And NYC, Chicago and others are getting it good and hard.

That is part of the problem: leftists never think through the unintended consequences of their actions/policies.

Even now, they are blaming everything (climate change, etc.) and everyone else (Trump, Republicans, etc.) for their plight.

BLAME THE REAL VILLAIN: JOE BIDEN and his open door policy.

Typical. Liberals never think ahead about the consequences of their actions.

Thank you governor Abbott for having cojones of steel which the rest of our spineless SOB RINOS lacked! You made those liberal sanctuary cities dreams come true!

+++++++++++

100% true. I’ve said this before, I don’t care what one thinks of Gov. Abbott, but this man pretty much single handedly made the sanctuary cities scream “Uncle”. Abbott deserves a medal.

Marion Marechal, right again: Those who said there is no problem now say there is no solution.

Who could possibly have guessed that aiding and encouraging violation of immigration laws could lead to lawless immigration.

There should be real and dire consequences for being this stupid. Ditto for the people who elected him.

“Notice how none of these democrat mayors are demanding that the border be closed.”

If the invasion is not stopped, Congress might have no more than five ‘black’ members within 20 years.

Dear ‘Black’ Municipal Worker:

Your performance has not met the revised city standards....You are being replaced by Senor Migrant.

Who’s this “nobody” he’s talking about? Anyone with one brain cell to rub together could see this coming.
