Pelosi Meltdown Triggered by Trump's Sanctuary City Plan

The Trump administration discussed a plan to bus illegal immigrants detained at the border to sanctuary cities as a punishment for their policies. Nancy Pelosi represents cities who are sanctuaries and she was not happy when she heard about this plan.
It seems like a big case of NOT IN MY BACK YARD.
According to Fox News:
A scuttled White House proposal to release immigrant detainees in San Francisco and other sanctuary cities triggered a fierce backlash Friday from Democrats including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, whose office called the idea “despicable.”
The Washington Post first reported that the White House proposed sending the detainees to sanctuary cities, including Pelosi's district, twice in the last six months. The proposal was first floated in November amid reports of a large migrant caravan from Central America making its way to the southern border. The idea was again considered in February, amid the standoff with Congress over a border wall.
“The extent of this Administration’s cynicism and cruelty cannot be overstated,” Pelosi spokeswoman Ashley Etienne said in a statement Friday. “Using human beings—including little children—as pawns in their warped game to perpetuate fear and demonize immigrants is despicable, and in some cases, criminal.”
She added: “The American people have resoundingly rejected this Administration’s toxic anti-immigrant policies, and Democrats will continue to advance immigration policies that keep us safe and honor our values.”
The executive branch and administration officials have stressed that the plan was mostly just a suggestion and a plan of action never went anywhere.
UPDATE: Trump has confirmed this is still being discussed:
....The Radical Left always seems to have an Open Borders, Open Arms policy – so this should make them very happy!
