Sanctuary cities enraged that now they have to put up or shut up

Good day all. About a month or so ago, Texas Governor Abbott started shipping illegal aliens to progressive run cities that have announced that they were “Sanctuary cities.” Most of these cities have not had to deal with the massive invasion of criminal aliens that Texas and the other border states have been dealing with…until now.

Two of the loudest liberal loudmouths on “Welcoming” illegal aliens have been the Mayor of Washington D.C. and the mayor of New York City. Now that they actually have to handle the few hundred illegals that Texas was kind enough to send their way, they are screeching like stuck pigs. Here are the details from Newsweek:

The surest sign that public policies are simply virtue signals is when the messages don’t cost anything. The easiest way to tell when that signal starts to fail is to watch politicians flounder as the costs start to rise and voters demand relief.

It was free—and meaningless—for progressive churches to post banners calling themselves “nuclear free zones” during the Reagan era. Their dwindling congregations loved it. It was free, after George Floyd‘s murder, to post woke catechism signs on your front lawn, proclaiming “In this house, we believe: Black Lives Matter, women’s rights are human rights, no human is illegal” and so on. Maybe the neighbors gave you high-fives. And for years it has been free for deep-blue cities to proclaim themselves “sanctuaries” for illegal immigrants. That’s changing now that voters want some sanctuary for themselves.

Changes like this happen when voters realize the old virtue signals actually entail serious costs—and that they will have to pay them. That is exactly what’s happening in New York City and Washington D.C. now that Texas governor Greg Abbott is sending those cities a few busloads of illegal immigrants from his state.

Isn’t it amazing how the Progressives, liberals and Democrats, (But I’m repeating myself), are always so progressive when what they want to see happening, happens somewhere else. When it happens to their neighborhoods, they act just like any liberal who has been mugged. They want the illegals shipped out.

These shrill noises are the sound of progressive politicians being squeezed. They proclaim their cities are “sanctuaries” but—surprise, surprise—they don’t actually want more illegal immigrants. Not that they can voice that reservation, of course, given their activist political base. Neither can they support serious efforts to manage the underlying problem by closing the border, or even trying to. Doing so would mean a humiliating return to Donald Trump‘s tough policies: building the wall, requiring asylum seekers to remain in Mexico as their applications are processed, and encouraging Mexico’s armed forces to deploy along the border to prevent illegal crossings. Biden overturned all those policies, to cheers from his party’s left-wing base. That was when they thought it would be costless.

Surprise! There is an actual cost, in tax money to handle these criminals, and to the people they also victimize. How many times in the last few month have we seen a story where some criminal alien has raped a 12-13 year old girl and gotten her pregnant? None of this would have happened it not for the Tainted Election of 2020 and the installation of the Worst President* in the History of the United States, Joe Bumbles Dementia Biden. And people wonder why so many liberals are buying guns that they had previously wanted confiscated.

Abbott’s goal is to squeeze the vise tighter on those politicians, to force them to change course on national immigration policy and lessen the flood of immigrants into his state—or else pay the price in their home states.

The buses are a political stunt, of course, but a very shrewd one. Abbott is up for reelection, and he’s visibly showing his support for beleaguered Texas cities and counties. He’s putting his liberal Democratic opponent, Beto O’Rourke, in an awkward position. O’Rourke specializes in showy, high-profile gestures but has no plan to alleviate the migrant problem. Finally, Abbott hopes to force the hand of national Democrats, who don’t care one iota about the social, financial, and law-enforcement burdens facing his state, but do care about those immigrants arriving in Manhattan or D.C.

Recently, a couple of bus loads of illegals arrived in New York City. The current failed mayor, Eric Adams, who replaced the previous failed mayor, Bill de Blasio, exploded when about 100 illegals suddenly showed up. Washington D.C.’s mayor Muriel Bowser demanded that the Pentagon send in the National Guard for the few hundred that Texas has shipped to her door step. (They said no)

Now the question is, will the Progressive big mouth mayors change their tunes regarding being “Sanctuary Cities” or will they just bleet like lost sheep? Will they demand that the head of the Department of Homeland (In)Security, Alejandro Mayorkas and the “Border Czarina” Kamala Heels Up Harris actually do their jobs? You’re joking, right?

The Progressive Liberal Elites that are mismanaging the nation have no interest in fixing the problems they caused. They literally can’t see it, since they are in their heavily secured gated communities. Dementia Joe Biden certainly doesn’t care, if he’s even aware of the mess he’s made. (Or what day of the week it is)

I’ve read that some 5 million illegal aliens have crossed the border and infiltrated the United States. This is in less then 2 years. I shudder to think what the numbers will be in 2025 when the Trump/DeSantis administration takes office. I do know that there will be only one solution. General roundups and summary deportations. Without question, the Judicial Branch, at least the Obama/Biden judges along with the RINO’s, will order any round up stopped.

That will end very badly for the Judicial branch. The next administration will flat out tell these judges to stay out of it or else. There won’t be any other choice in the matter. The alternative will be flat out vigilantes going after Illegals and they won’t be to interested in just grabbing them and sending them to ICE facilities. There is only one way this can be stopped.

The question now is whether those Democratic lawmakers will finally direct their wrath at the president, and whether Biden will duck and cover or respond with more effective policies.
