Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel To Sue Trump Administration

Rahm Emanuel is truly one of the most corrupt pieces of sh*t in American politics right now, so instead of addressing the fact that his city is crumbling, he’s going to virtue signal and “resist” Trump all day. On the tax-payer’s dime, of course!

According to the Chicago Tribune:

Mayor Rahm Emanuel is planning to double down against President Donald Trump’s immigration policies by filing a federal lawsuit claiming it’s illegal for the federal government to withhold public safety grant money from so-called sanctuary cities.

 

The city will head into federal court Monday to argue Attorney General Jeff Sessions cannot hold back federal Byrne grants from cities the administration says aren’t cooperating enough with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials, Emanuel said during an interview on “Connected to Chicago” on WLS radio-890. The interview will air at 7 p.m. Sunday.

 

Byrne Justice Assistance Grants provide a relatively minuscule amount of money to Chicago. The city this year is counting on $3.2 million from the program, money mostly used to buy police vehicles. The grants amount to roughly three-hundredths of 1 percent of the entire $9.8 billion city budget.

 

That makes the lawsuit a relatively low-stakes gambit with some political upside for Emanuel as he courts support from Latinos, who are deeply concerned about the Trump administration’s immigration policies. The lawsuit also could affirm Emanuel’s profile among big-city mayors pushing back against Trump policies.

“The grants amount to roughly three-hundredths of 1 percent of the entire $9.8 billion city budget.” AS IN this is entirely a publicity stunt, and the time that little dirtball and his team have spent on this lawsuit would have probably already paid down the difference in the budget.

What a chump.

Maybe you should get your head out of your a$$ and try to do something about your hellhole of a city, Rahm. Maybe rescinding its “sanctuary city” status would be a good place to start! Look at what happened to Phoenix’s crime rate when they did just that! (no offense to Chicago. I have plenty of roots there, and it hurts my heart that it’s going to sh*t because let’s face it, it totally is.)
