“I want to say directly to anyone that’s threatened or vulnerable, you are safe in Boston. We will do everything lawful in our power to protect you.”

President Donald Trump signed executive orders Wednesday to start construction of the infamous US-Mexico border wall as well as stopping funding for sanctuary cities near the border.

However, Boston has said no to his clampdown in immigrants.

The Mayor of the city Marty Walsh, whose parents are both from Galway, has denounced the Trump’s plan in this passionate speech to the citizens of his city.
