Mayor John DeStefano Jr. will testify before a national immigration misconduct commission in Boston on Monday to speak on his experiences from last summer’s immigration raids in Fair Haven, which provoked an outcry from Latino leaders and supportive community members.

And what type of "personal experiences" did the honorable Mayor suffer himself? None. When is the hearing about his tin pot city government flagrantly ignoring federal law? Of course the Latino leaders and "supportive" community members were outraged. It's thier political base being affected by Federal Officers enforcing Federal Law. If one federal law can be ignored in New Haven, what right do you have to enforce any federal law such as civil rights, education, racial bias, what have you. You can't pick and choose no matter how much the Mayor, the lation community and the yale Law students wish.

This "Mayor" is desperately trying to make himself important enough to have a D.C. call girl name him KING JOHN

This "commission" is a totally bogus scam put on by the pro-illegals and union. It's a TOTAL JOKE to scam the public. It's going to star a bunch of crying, snot-nosed, pro-criminals whining to the heavens about all the ALLEGED abuse by ICE. When I see the pro-criminals engage in this type of SCAM it just shows me how totally desperate they are to BS the public. WHY lie? WHY scam? WHY not simply tell the truth? And the answer is that the truth doesn't support them.
