Tucker Carlson on Sanctuary Cities and Illegal Emigrants
I’m an unabashed Tucker fan, and he’s nightly viewing at the casa. His handling of liberal guests by taking their talking points apart is pretty humorous, rarely gets into a shouting match, and they usually part their ways on good terms. About the only guest I’ve seen that he openly disliked is the creepy pRon ‘lawer.’ Who can blame him for that?
The recent proposal to ship illegals off to sanctuary cities has lit off a firestorm from the left. Odd, they should welcome these newcomers with open arms, but that definitely is not the case. True, several cities, Chicago being one, have agreed to take in more illegals, but they are solidly in the minority.
This is red meat to Tucker, and he dissects the leftie’s statements before, and after Trump’s proposal.
Transcript follows:
CARLSON: Good evening, and welcome to “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” What if someone you hated offered to pay off your mortgage? Put your kids through college? Or deliver a tractor-trailer full of Snickers bars to your house? We’d be confused at first and suspicious, why is an enemy giving you the gift of a lifetime? But in the end, if you were smart, you would take the gift. It would be too good to pass up.
Well, something very much like that happened in Washington last night. The Washington Post reported that the Trump administration has been debating moving some of the thousands of migrants now massing on our southern border into various self-proclaimed sanctuary cities across the United States. The President later confirmed that as true in a tweet as of tonight, that policy remains under consideration. Talk about great news for blue America.
The left loves impoverished immigrants in the developing world and why wouldn’t they? They make our cities safer, they tell us. They improve our schools. They provide the backbone of our economy. They do the work that we won’t do. They are diverse. They are our strength. They are the best of America even though technically they’re not Americans. Sanctuary cities love them best of all, that’s why they’ve become sanctuaries for illegal immigrants.
Every Democrat now running for President has affirmed this repeatedly.
CHRIS HAYES, MSNBC ANCHOR: If you could, would you take the wall down now here?
BETO O’ROURKE (D), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: Yes.
HAYES: Like you have a wall.
O’ROURKE: Absolutely.
HAYES: You’ll knock it down.
SEN. ELIZABETH WARREN (D-MA), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: Offer a home to refugees. That is who we are. That’s our values. That’s part of what we do.
JULIAN CASTRO (D), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: So instead of building a wall or closing the border, we should choose compassion instead of cruelty.
SEN. KAMALA HARRIS (D-CA), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: We welcome refugees and bring people out of the shadows.
SEN. KIRSTEN GILLIBRAND (D-NY), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: Immigration is not a security issue. It is an economic and a humanitarian and a family issue. There is no such thing as an illegal human.

Wow, it’s almost as if leftists aren’t really the saintly altruistic moral paragons they claim to be!
Sure, why not. Dump them on Grannie Nannie and DiFi, Maxie Pad, Al (hedontpaytaxes), Jessie, Beto, ect. ect, and then cut off any Federal monies to the city AND the individual.
I have no problem with LEGAL immigrants that want to become Americans. What we have and have been having is an invasion of the USA. And a drain on the taxpayers. How many BILLIONS of USD are these parasites costing us each day?
Build the Wall. Round up and send ALL illegals back to from whence they came.
AMEN!
The real reason the Democrats don’t want these illegals in their sanctuary cities is because they’re not needed in those urban areas as Democrat voters. The Dems have a lock on those cities now, so they want to resettle these illegals in areas where the conservative voting margin is slim and a few thousand more votes might swing an election into the Blue column. They would much prefer to keep them all in Arizona and Texas.
When it’s the Democrats, always look for the underlying political motive.
We weren’t supposed to notice that.
If we examined closely the services provided, officially and otherwise, I wonder how much active effort would be seen, moving illegals out of cities?
An emphasis on farm work certainly does it.
The logistics of this could be rather interesting.
Or like Orange County, CA.
They’ve been doing that since the days of “B-1 Bob” Dornan.
And now OC is solidly blue. Nice job, assholes.
I like watching Tucker on his show but I stopped watching the Five with jessie waters. Turns out watters likes most of the hollyweird left actors/actresses. He says that he can separate their acting from their politics WTF, doesn’t that A H know that when he pays to go to the movies, part of the box office money goes to the actor/actress and how much of this is donated to their party and that is why I watch old B&W and some technicolor pre hollyweird flicks on TCM.
Just about everyone on fox is fake playing a role for money. It’s fake opposition to reign in money so you shouldn’t be surprised that these people are different than what they portray. It’s why everyone that has left fox goes full leftists because they don’t have to pretend anymore. It’s all a big bamboozle and they laugh about it.
The whole point of being a leftist is being able to escape the awful policies you force into others to destroy western civilization. Of course they are going to be pissed if they are personally affected by the obvious bad outcomes of their shit ideology of death to America and Americans. These people people are literal shit. A blight of civilization. Dead Americans are good with them just as long as they aren’t the dead ones.
Leftists only want JUST enough illegal aliens to 1. Give them dirt cheap labor for whatever businesses they own.
2. Keep their districts depressed and dependent enough on Government to keep voting D-rat.
Like others, I’m all for LEGAL Immigration, the only thing we owe illegal aliens is DEPORTATION.
Just a taste of how the Democrats really feel about illegal immigrants.
-Jeffrey Toobin referred the illegals as a “pestilence” Trump would be unleashing on sanctuary cities.
-Cory Booker said that Trump moving illegals into sanctuary jurisdictions “make us less safe”.
-Oakland mayor Libby Shaaf echos many Democrats and said that Trump is using “families and children, human beings, as political retribution against their enemies.”
These are not the words of people who actually want open borders and illegal immigrants living in their area.
Excellent observations, Mason.
America has been receiving over a million legal immigrants per year for the last 30 years, myself included. 1.3 million last year alone.
The percentage of American citizens who are naturalized has never been as great since 1910. Yet they ask us to do more. We are near the critical mass point when new Americans who do not understand and do not identify with American values are numerous enough to allow the Left to change our Constitution and get rid of the Bill of Rights.
Believe me, they are going for the whole Bill of Rights. First the 2nd Amendment, then the 1st, the 5th, and so on.
Build the wall. Build it NOW.
I do not agree even about the legal immigration.
The H 1 visa system is a legal way to bring in 65,000 Indian and Chinese programmers and drive down wages for American programmers.
There is a program to bring in another 20,000 graduate students from these countries on top of that.
This hurts American graduate students.
A company called Findream was just indicted for fraud of 2,000 Chinese graduate students.
And the president of Divensi was arrested for endemic visa fraud of Indian workers.
We should reduce even legal immigration and totally stop illegal immigration.
I love the idea of bussing illegals to sanctuary cities.
I would contribute some of my hard earned money to any private organization that starts such a program.
Agree. The H1 system is being abused by large IT corporations and other big businesses to the detriment of our citizens.
