Philadelphia officials continue to thrust their city into the spotlight regarding the Trump administration’s illegal immigration efforts, including actions taken by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Much of it seems to center on two well-known left-wing ideological figures in Philadelphia: the city’s district attorney, Larry Krasner, and now, Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal. 

Bilal came under scrutiny due to recent comments she made at a press conference in which she disparaged ICE officers and criticized them over the controversy involving the death of Renee Good. Bilal described ICE as “fake, wannabe law enforcement.” Shortly after, Bilal added to the controversy by calling a black Republican congressman a racial slur. 

In a social media video post last week, Bilal called Rep. Wesley Hunt (R-TX) a “handkerchief head negro.” Bilal’s comments came, once again, regarding the Good incident and were in response to Hunt calling for respecting law enforcement. She also seems to have an odd obsession with President Donald Trump and took time to bash him while speaking about Hunt.

“See, he don’t even know what he’s talking about,” Bilal said in the video. “But, if you bucking for a job, and you keep being a “handkerchief head negro,” exactly what you doing, then go ahead and do that. Go over there and get a job over there. Because you black, he ain’t going to give you one either. So, you might as well stay where you are, and just get out of the way with the nonsense.”

Like much of what Bilal says, and has said,........
