New York discovers that being a 'sanctuary city' is a bad idea

 American Action News:

Despite growing calls from local law enforcement and the mayor to roll back New York City’s sanctuary laws amid a slate of horrific migrant-related crime, liberal Democratic members of the city council ignored requests for comment on legislation that would do just that.

A bipartisan group of nine members on the New York City Council known as the Common Sense Caucus introduced legislation in June that, if enacted, would dial back several sanctuary city policies that prevent local police from working with federal immigration authorities. However, since that bill’s roll out, it has remained stagnant within City Hall with no expectations to move forward any time soon.

The Daily Caller News Foundation reached out to every single member of the New York City Council not on the Common Sense Caucus — 42 members total — and asked if they supported the anti-sanctuary city bill or why they supported keeping the current sanctuary city laws in place. Not a single office provided comment.

The closest the DCNF got to receiving a statement was from Council Member Shahana Hanif’s office, whose staff sent over a link to an op-ed she co-authored with Councilmember Alexa Aviles. That op-ed faulted Mayor Eric Adams for wanting to modify the city’s sanctuary city laws and claimed such policies keep New Yorkers safe.

One co-sponsor of the anti-sanctuary city bill said local lawmakers must begin listening to voters and prioritize public safety.

“When so-called representatives ignore their constituents by refusing not only to put crucial issues like sanctuary city laws on the ballot but also to pass common-sense bills into law, it’s no wonder New Yorkers are fleeing in droves,” Council Member Robert Holden, a moderate Democrat and co-chair of the Common Sense Caucus, said to DCNF.

“Elected officials must stop with the social experiments and politically correct movements and start protecting and representing law-abiding citizens immediately,” he continued.

I have seen other reports that 75 percent of the crime in New York City is done by illegal immigrants many of which were released from prison in other countries from around the world./  This is a direct result of Biden's idiotic open borders policy that has allowed literally millions of crooks into the country.  The sanctuary city idea has made cities like New York less safe.

Trump gets it. The man actually gets it. This is what a true conservative sounds like. TRUMP: "It takes centuries to build the unique character of each state. But reckless migration policy can change it quickly and permanently. Just like we’ve seen in London, and Paris, and Minneapolis." "If Kamala Harris wins this election, she will flood Pennsylvania cities and towns with illegal migrants from all over the world—and Pennsylvania will not be Pennsylvania any longer." "When I’m president, all migrant flights to Pennsylvania will STOP the moment I take the oath of office. Those who do not belong, will be sent back home. We will end the invasion of small-town Pennsylvania—and we will END the destruction of America."

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
