    This is fire.

    “The criminal in the White House will not be able to keep you from going to jail.”

    “Because what they do is not only against the moral law, but the legal law”

    I wish Kraus and Zappala were willing to take a stand like that.

      That’s cool and all but can we have a sheriff that does their job and isn’t a terrible human being? That probably trumps beats hot quotes.

      It’s a shame Krasner has to appear next to her. He runs a great office, while she is a stain on this city.

      Edit: before anyone assumes anything, Krasner literally defined the “progressive prosecutor” archetype during a wave a criminal justice reform a decade ago. Bilal might hate Trump but that’s probably the only thing that aligns her with the left

    ice is already very active in Philly and I don’t see the sheriff doing anything about it. hell there’s an ice office right across from the police HQ and right next to the DMV of all places.

    they raid supermarkets and restaurants in the Philly area all the time. sorry to say it but this is some top tier bullshit.

      She wasn’t saying they shouldn’t have a presence in Philly.

      “Let me be clear: If any law enforcement agent, any ICE agent, is going to come to Philly to commit crimes, then you can get the F out of here,” Krasner said. “Because if you do that here, I will charge you with those crimes. You will be arrested. You will stand trial. You will be convicted.”

      She’s saying obey the law.

    If she wasn’t a cop, she might be able to find a place in her jurisdiction where ICE is committing crimes…

    They even have local judges on their side that a 100% detention rate is illegal…

    And yet, this fucking cop who is all over social media daring ICE to come commit crimes in her jurisdiction…

    Continues to ignore ICE’s crimes in her jurisdiction.

      It’s not just the cop thing. Bilal is the most shameless and corrupt politician currently in the Philadelphia system. Everything she does is wrong. She had a decent primary challenger in the last election but she won on name recognition in a low interest election.

      Her fuckery LONG predated ICE raids in and around the city.
