Kansas City Mayor Q KILLS Resolution Against Sanctuary City Status

Once again, Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas is making a crisis over his rhetoric even worse . . .

Today he had a chance to take a loss and move on with his life following a controversial "open invite" to NYC Migrants. However, he seems to be occupied playing word games rather than acknowledging that his statements sparked EPIC local resistance. 

Remember . . . 

Insiders warned us that that the Mayor was sending council dude Nathan Willett's anti-sanctuary city resolution to his own"kill committee" for legal review. 

And now . . . 

MAYOR Q SHUTS DOWN KANSAS CITY NORTHLAND EFFORTS DECLARING OPPOSITION TO "SANCTUARY CITY" STATUS!!!

Context . . . 

Remember that our blog community was the FIRST to report that Platte County Commissioner Scott Fricker & Clay County Commissioner Jerry Nolte had urged the Mayor to reverse course and consider Councilman Willett's resolution. 

And now . . .

Sadly, Mayor Q is still doing damage control and attempting to talk his way out of this hot mess by way of fancy verbiage and committee moves. 

A smarter strategy would've been to let the vote die with the council in order to spread the blame around or let it pass . . . Since the resolution was non-binding and pretty much echos some of the same sentiments that come from Jeff City daily. 

However . . . 

Killing the resolution will likely just enrage Mayor Q's critics even further and encourage Missouri GOP leaders to press on by targeting Show-Me State funding going to KCMO.

Here's today's update that our blog community insiders predicted over the weekend . . . 

“There is nothing that has been proposed that suggests we are a sanctuary city,” he said.

“There is nothing that has been proposed that suggests that this city is funding or in some conspiracy to help create more illegal immigration.” Lucas said, therefore, he saw no reason to advance a resolution proposed by Councilman Nathan Willett that would assure the Missouri General Assembly that Kansas City was not on the path to becoming a city that would provide legal sanctuary to people in the country illegally.

But he didn’t apologize for his earlier remarks, either.
