“IT’S ALREADY HAPPENING,” John Stone said.
Mike pressed the phone to his ear. He’d just walked into his office the day after the press conference. “What’s that, John?”
“There’s a lot of pissed-off people out there, especially the sanctuary-city mayors. Mayor Dawkins is holding a news conference in L.A. today, and he said he’ll tell you what to do with your sanctuary ban. I wouldn’t be surprised if others did, too.”
“Let them blow off steam,” Mike grumbled. “It’s all show.”
“I think you’re right. It’s political theater. If they don’t speak out against it, they lose votes. Farmers will raise a stink. And businessmen will lean on the mayors and city councils because they like the cheap labor, too.”
Mike’s grip on the phone tightened. “Yeah, well, there are ways to deal with them. I’ll have health and safety inspectors up their asses every day.”
“Be careful, Mike. Get a hold of your temper. Don’t do anything rash. If something like that gets out, it’ll be red meat for the media.”
