Boston, Cambridge and Somerville are sanctuary cities and plan to remain that way.

Trump…vows to move against sanctuary cities financially, places where authorities will not detain undocumented people for the immigration service without criminal warrants. “We will cancel all federal funding to sanctuary cities,” Trump threatens.

His hardline stance is causing some sanctuary cities to push back and reaffirm their status. “Boston is a sanctuary city,” says Boston City Councilor Tito Jackson.

He’s worried that undocumented residents will be afraid to go to the police for help, or even send their kids to school. “The police department, if you call them and you need help they will help you, and they will not turn you in to the Feds,” Jackson says.

Mayor Walsh appears to be staying the course as well, saying in a statement: “We are a welcoming city for all. These are Boston values and no policy will change them.”

    Is there anyone or any group (legal or otherwise) that can stand up to the Pu**y Grabber and Chief before he takes the oath in January?

    Ah yes! It’s good to be a WASP in the U.S. today.
