    Washington Post reporting about WH plans to bus immigrants..

    From the border to districts held by political opponents of the President, to "release" them where they could "cause havoc". Intending to use migrants in a,way to "cause chaos" in Sanctuary cities.

    Emails from White House people to ICE agents to discuss options - multiple sources, apparently Miller was prominent, but may not have originated the idea.

    Migod. What complete pr#cks.

          How about all you open borders folks stepping up to become “billet families” for ten , twenty , maybe 50 or 60 folks?

              Surely I have read on this very forum that immigrants (all inclusive) are good for the country, sanctuary cities are good.

              Hmm, now it appears that many of those that see no issue with illegal immigrants, love sanctuary cities, etc, now are clamoring that it shouldn't be allowed.

              Why aren't they welcoming it ?

              Surely they will not act in the way that the WH allegedly believes that they will i.e. cause chaos?



              The word rooted in the Greek word hypokrites appears to be appropriate.

              If the cap fits.

                Rummy, are you missing the point where proposal "pushed" by the Trump administration was developed solely because Trump intended it to generate "chaos?" I'm less concerned that immigrants would have actually been in San Francisco or New York - that might have been good for them. I'm far more concerned that the administration's stated objective was not to advance the legislated purposes of America's immigration programs, or reduce risk or harm either to migrants or Americans, but to weaponize the mere existence of actual people in the hope of inflicting pain on partisan opponents.

                  But everything Trump believes is surely wrong.

                  There have been numerous post on this forum that illegal/non-documented/etc immigrants are always good for the country.

                  The sanctuary cities appear to welcome them with open arms.

                  So why the whining outcry about them now?

                    You don't understand the term "sanctuary city", at least as it applies here. Read up on what it means.

                      It's pretty apparent that people still don't know what sanctuary cities are and what it means.

                          You never miss an opportunity to miss the point, do you.....

                          Tell us: putting the merits of immigration aside for a moment... do you approve of a President using immigration policy as a weapon against his political opponents?

                            What has any of that to do with the fact you don't seem to grasp what a sanctuary city is? You love to say how terrible it is here, at least have the decency to be accurate.

                              I am asking a question on a point that many on this forum wish to sweep under the carpet. LOL




                              PS It does not matter one iota whether or not I approve of the President of the United States using immigration policy as a weapon against his political opponents. There is an endless supply of issues/items that I/one would disapprove of the POTUS using against his political opponents, this being included.
