Defunding public safety and funding illegals

 Defunding public safety and funding illegals – Bill Wilson – www.dailyjot.com Liberals are so funny, except when they are not. We saw how liberals in many cities across the US defunded police departments by diverting taxpayer money to social services.They thought that they could “reason” with criminals to abandon their lives of crime and become responsible citizens. When everything from petty crime to mass attacks on department stores to murders increased significantly, these same liberals just cannotfigure out why. We saw last week crime ridden Chicago’s Alderman Brian Hopkins bemoaned Chicago being a sanctuary city because of increased homelessness and associated crime. Now comes the Governor of Massachusetts with another attack on public safety. Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey, a Democrat of course, is up against a budget crisis in her state. She has decided to cut some $375 million from the state’s FY 2024 budget.Sounds responsible, especially for a Democrat. But then again, the devil is in the details. She is cutting $294 million in aid to dependent children and the state supplement to Social Security. Remember how Republicans are always blamed for Social Securitycuts and abandoning needy children? Well, in Massachusetts, there aren’t enough Republicans to blame, but we can wait and see. Additionally, Healey is cutting $1.68 million to firefighters in small towns across the state. AND she is opening up college financialaid to illegal aliens. Here again, a liberal Democrat politician is making a big deal about budget cuts, but the cuts are aimed at kids, Social Security recipients and firefighters. At the sametime, the liberal is opening the doors to tuition aid for illegal aliens. She is aiding the lawless at the expense of the law-abiding. Of course, the liberals in academia are elated. In a news release from the Governor’s office, presidents of universitiesand community colleges are quoted in support of such “equity.” As an example, Rob McCarron, President and CEO of the Association of Independent Colleges and Universities in Massachusetts, said “On behalf of the Commonwealth’s State Universities, I am thrilledthat the Governor continues to increase access to a college education for all people that reside in Massachusetts.” Cause and effect: For all the Democrat rhetoric about how kids are going hungry, Healey is cutting their lifelines to meals and healthcare; For all the fear-mongering that’sdone about Republicans balancing the budget on the backs of senior citizens, Healey is cutting Social Security; For all the bombast about public safety, Healey is cutting funding to small town fire departments. BUT she is increasing the budget for educationto illegals, or quite frankly, transferring taxpayer money to liberals in academia who probably couldn’t hold a job in the real world and are teaching our kids their “expertise” in anti-God, anti-American ideologies. When houses burn and children go hungry,Healey won’t understand. As is written in Psalm 92:6, “A senseless man does not know, Nor does a fool understand this.” Say it with me…Stupidocrisy.
