They Just LOST Their Sanctuary City

Sanctuary
It seems that the District of Columbia has lost it’s “sanctuary city” status. Mayor Muriel Bowser won’t say a word about the webpage that vanished suddenly, to Democrat dismay. She’s been warned already that unless there are big changes in the way local crime is prosecuted the Trump administration will take the whole problem off her hands.

Sanctuary status in question

Left leaning media learned that a webpage that “championed” D.C. as a “sanctuary city” suddenly went into digital limbo. They’re frantically reporting that it turns the status of local illegal aliens upside down.

They’re supposed to be totally welcome inside the beltway on a don’t ask, don’t tell basis. Democrats weren’t expecting President Donald Trump to get this drastic.

Axios can’t believe that “Mayor Muriel Bowser is retreating from public stands against President Trump.” Congress recently called the Democrat mayors of the most defiant sanctuary cities in for a session of intense grilling but Bowser wasn’t invited.

That seems odd to liberals but indicates to conservatives that the federal government is about to retake day-to-day authority for running the city back into their own hands.

The webpage upsetting progressives with its absence was “an FAQ page devoted to questions about immigration rights, discrimination and school access.” Axios won’t tell you that the administration considers what they had to say “aiding and abetting.

When Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson was interrogated by the House, he couldn’t answer a simple question. If Chicago is supposed to be providing “sanctuary,” what exactly is it that illegal aliens are getting safety, refuge or protection from? He couldn’t answer because it would prove the city is aiding and abetting known immigration law breakers.

Fight deportations

Left-wing activists were quick to pull up archives showing that the missing page “had contained statements Bowser made after the 2016 election.” That was when she firmly declared D.C. was “doubling down” on “being a sanctuary city.

She steamrolled right ahead, using “taxpayer dollars to fight deportations, creating grants for defense lawyers and nonprofits to help undocumented immigrants.” That won’t be happening any longer.

Democrats were convinced that being “in the same camp as Chicago, Los Angeles and other Democratic-run cities and states who were resisting the first Trump administration’s deportation threats” would shield District of Columbia administrators from the consequences of their actions.

The District of Columbia has lost it’s sanctuary city status.

She talked tough just before Trump won the 2016 election, telling “a group of irate anti-Trump activists” that she “asserted firmly that we are a sanctuary city.

More recently, with Elon Musk running around with a chainsaw and firing everyone in sight, Mayor Bowser “no longer uses the phrase sanctuary city.” In February, she changed her tune. She’s not using the magic phrase because she suddenly thinks “it is misleading.” It lets people think they can ignore the law.

It’s misleading to suggest to anyone that if you’re violating immigration laws, that this is a place where you can violate immigration laws. You are vulnerable to federal immigration enforcement.” Sanctuary was only an illusion. The next time ICE rolls in with detainment orders, she’s being forced to “follow the law.
