WASHINGTON – The revelation late Thursday that the White House tried multiple times to
pressure immigration authorities into releasing migrants on the streets of sanctuary
cities did not go over well with Democrats, who denounced the Trump administration as cruel.
The plan, reported by the Washington Post, was concocted to retaliate against Democrats and
target sanctuary cities in liberal strongholds. It didn't come to fruition after pushback
from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the Post reported. ICE rejected the idea
after at first thinking it was a joke, the Post reported.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's district was specifically targeted, according to the Post, noting
that the White House wanted to transport migrants into her congressional district in San Francisco.
Ashley Etienne, a spokeswoman for Pelosi, called the proposal "despicable."
Oh I see how this works. The Democrats brag about how they welcome immagrants and want to protect
them against the evil Trump administartion except when it's in their own backyard. They're nothing
more than a bunch of deceiving imposters.
