an interview with Libby - https://www.npr.org/2019/04/13/712997016/oakland-mayor-libby-schaaf-on-trump-and-sanctuary-cities

[quote]SIMON: But let me hone this down to the point that's at issue now. If sometime, let's say, in the middle of next week, a number of buses arrive in Oakland with 5,000 migrants, do you say, welcome to Oakland?

SCHAAF: I always say, welcome to Oakland. But this is much less about immigration or sanctuary. This is about an outrageous abuse of power. The idea that you could use human beings, families as instruments of political payback to use public resources to exact retribution on your political enemies. This is not America. It is not democratic. And this is what should outrage all Americans, regardless of their stance on immigration or sanctuary cities.[/quote]

I wonder what her constituents think.  [/quote]

How is it political payback if she welcomes them?  She says much, does nothing.  Typical BS liberal hypocrite.[/quote]

I read the interview. She's pretty much an idiot, as she has no concrete plans to absorb newcomers.  sort of like building a home with no blueprints

works EVERY time, eh?

lol

[quote]SIMON: Would, let's say, a thousand more immigrants greatly tax the resources of Oakland?

SCHAAF: Oakland is growing very quickly. And we welcome families. We welcome people that seek to make better lives for their families, that are willing to work hard and become wonderful members of our community.[/quote][/quote]
