My, my, Gov. Newsom, what is going on in your home county(Marin)? Marin County is one of the most expensive places to live in California and America. Buying a home there requires top dollar income levels. A basic starter home-old, 1-story, marginal area, fixer-upper home, will require 1 million + to get in. Oh, then there's the property taxes and fees, fees, fees, fees. Newsom's Folly= California. Oh, and the utility bills will choke a horse.
Last week, the Guatemalan consular office scheduled a local effort to give passports to many of their citizens now living in Marin county. There are many, many, Guatemalans here without legal status. They are illegals who have entered the old fashioned way: strolling across the southern border with Mexico. Now these illegals are trapped by their decisions: they cannot return "home" and re-enter the USA because:they are illegal and would risk being caught by ICE and banned for 10 years. So, the consulate decided, as they have done several times in the past to hold passport clinics on site in central San Rafael, the Marin County seat. An appointment was necessary to enter the queue. Folks started lining up after midnight. By dawn, there was more than 500 folks milling about the community center. After the arrival of the consular officials and staff, fights broke out between Guatemalans with appointments and those without appointments- shocking! So, a wise person called the police.
Then what happened? 6 uniformed officers arrived after traveling a mile from headquarters. They were confronted with an angry mob that was getting out of control. Clearly outmanned and in grave danger, the police officers retreated after telling the consular officials to leave the city and stop issuing passports.
Immigration continues to baffle politicians from top to bottom, San Rafael being the bottom. And Gov. Gavin is running for higher office, somewhere. Good luck but stop wasting your money: you've reached your highest level of incompetency already.
