Boston’s radical mayor just made it official: when it comes to choosing between protecting children and shielding criminal illegal aliens, Michelle Wu is picking the latter. And the White House is not having it.
During her State of the City address, Wu leaned hard into her sanctuary city defiance—mocking President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown, boasting about Boston’s refusal to cooperate with ICE, and declaring, “Not kings, and not presidents who think they are kings” will tell Boston what to do.
But let’s be clear: this isn’t about political poetry or Irish coffee. Between August and December alone, ICE arrested 26 illegal immigrants in the Boston area for sex crimes against children—rape, sexual assault, even child pornography. Let that sink in.
And yet, Wu’s message to the nation is that these “immigrants” belong here—no matter what they’ve done. It’s a slap in the face to every law-abiding citizen and a gut punch to the families of the victims.
President Trump’s White House responded with righteous fire, releasing a blistering statement titled: “Boston’s Radical Mayor Puts Violent Criminal Illegal Aliens First.” It didn’t pull punches, laying out case after case of violent, criminal illegals being shielded by Boston’s sanctuary status.
The statement asked the question every sane American is thinking:
“Why is Mayor Wu intent on defying the will of the American people and obstructing the Trump Administration’s efforts to remove these monsters from our streets?”
Wu, for her part, keeps grandstanding about “family” and “belonging”—as if violent gang members with rap sheets longer than a CVS receipt deserve the same protection as your average Bostonian.
Trump promised mass deportations and a return to law and order—and thanks to leaders like Wu, the contrast between common sense and insanity has never been clearer.
