President Trump’s plans to crack down on so-called “sanctuary cities” has met with criticism from many politicians around California.

But Fresno Mayor Lee Brand said Thursday that he has no plans for his city to join the sanctuary city movement, which is designed to express support and solidarity for people in this country illegally.

Watch for an amazing article about this from Victor Davis Hanson..?

I’m hoping, anyway.

WOW..! Very unexpected, this.

He will not be the only Sheriff across California and the rest of the USA, to say, “No sanctuary city/county under my watch!”

Fresno needs all the Federal money it can get. Miami FL mayor is also on board.

It’s going to be real fun watching the leftie state and local governments cave once the money stops.

I saw this earlier and knew you would be pleased!

I’m sure those illegal aliens in Fresno and the surrounding area are NOT happy at all.

Hope they ALL take heed!

I really hope (and pray) our entire state gets the full heat and weight of the Federal Government!
(I didn’t think I’d ever say that, but I never imagined CA under entire demonic-rat control either!)

There are, like, 30 “sanctuary cities” in California.

I love how they call them a “trend.”

It is very interesting to see how the left attacks Indiana and North Carolina when they want to protect the rights of little girls wanting to use a rest room - all they scream about is the loss of money - no Final 4, no bank expansion, etc.

But when Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, and San Francisco face a similar loss of money due to their social policies - not a word about that angle.

Hmmm...

The Central Valley is largely conservative anyway. Probably thinking that his job would be at stake in 2018.
