Seattle Mayor Ed Murray Gives State of the City Address from a Mosque
King 5 Radio ^ | February 21, 2017 | Associated Press and King % Staff

Seattle Mayor Ed Murray wants to know exactly what President Donald Trump has planned for cities like Seattle that vow to resist federal immigration enforcement actions.

Murray, in his final State of the City address delivered Tuesday from a mosque, said Seattle was filing public records requests with the Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies seeking information about the Trump administration's definition of "sanctuary cities" and what "enforcement actions the federal government may take against us."

Seattle has vowed to protect immigrants and refugees and to not help federal authorities. Murray has instructed city departments to rework budgets to prepare for the possibility that federal dollars could be lost if Trump cuts aid.

Murray said the city will take "legal action" if the federal government doesn't quickly respond to its information requests.

This make my blood boil. Would the Mayor of Seattle have considered giving his State of the City address from a Christian Church? What about the left's cry for separation of Church and State? Does this mean a mosque is not a religion facility? Is Islam not a true religion . . . only a radical social movement?

I’ve said time and time again, liberals are not PRO-Islam, they are merely ANTI-Christian and the thought of Christianity triumphing again in America, in the world, makes their blood boil.

Oooooo! I’ll bet Trump is really crapping his pants over this! I just hope I live long enough to see guys like this on the end of a rope!

ACLU national political director, Faiz Shakir, would be all over this clown if he had made his “state of the city” rant from a Christian church.

Imagine the screaming and gnashing of teeth had he given his speech from the pulpit of the First Baptist Church. OMG!! But of course no leftist would even consider doing such a thing.

Speaking of taxes, read his proposed property and “sweet beverage” tax ideas. Seattle voters have got to be the stupidest morons on the planet. Voting themselves higher taxes, inflation, and more crime. Good job!

The Stalin statue is a much better place for a Seattle state of the city speech.
