https://www.nj.com/news/2020/02/newark-mayor-fires-back-at-barr-over-ice-plan-that-incites-hatred.html“ Newark Mayor Ras Baraka is defending the city’s sanctuary policies for undocumented immigrants, one day after the Trump administration announced federal agents who patrol the U.S. border will be deployed to cities across the country where local jurisdictions are hindering stepped up immigration enforcement.”
“ In a statement issued Sunday, Baraka called the latest move divisive and disputed Attorney General William Barr’s assertion that “sanctuary cities” protect criminals living in the country illegally. Barr’s language “incites hatred,” Baraka said.
“The Trump Administration plan to bolster ICE enforcement forces with tactical units will undermine our efforts to build community trust," Baraka said in a statement released Sunday. “When (Barr) says sanctuary is ‘misguided ideology triumphing over common sense law enforcement,’ he undermines the common decency aspects of our policy."
This is just some of the rhetoric we regular people who support ICE and the POTUS have to deal with on a regular basis. Luckily I live in a pretty strong Republican district but I have a feeling it won’t be too long before that starts to break apart.
Before our last election, NJ and the controlling Democrats re-drew our voting district maps so,our Republican area lost some voters to another area and picked up a ton of Democrats from the south. Now I have Andy Kim as my Rep in Congress....Yeah.
