There ya go. Some people read these deceptive media headlines and they go with it with little or no thought and then make all kinds of assumptions.

You’d think most everyone by now would understand what the media’s all about.

Jeff Sessions announced recently that he is considering withholding federal funds for cities, states, etc., that consider themselves sanctuary.

In those articles it says that the total federal funds that could be withheld is $4.1B.

Wow! $4.1B

That is a lot of money that could be used to build a wall.

So, take the $4.1B federal funds away from the sanctuary cities, states, etc., and use it to build a wall!

They were simply designated by DHS to that Fed LEO funding could be withheld.

The practice was already in place before the Feds designated them.

It's just a terrible headline, not unusual these days for the media, applying the term "designated" in a vague and confusing way. California, etc. have "designated" certain of their cities as "sanctuary cities" thus allowing illegals to stay there unmolested. Thus far, a "designated" sanctuary city is one that is ALLOWED to harbor illegals.

The article itself says, The Department of Homeland Security added the entire states of California and Connecticut to its list of U.S. jurisdictions That hinder cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in detaining illegal immigrants.

The headline should read something like, "DHS Lists California and Connecticut as Sanctuary States that Hinder ICE". We wouldn't be wasting our time talking about this if they'd done it right. The media is in the business of vagueness and confusion.

I knew there was a better headline than the one I suggested.

Excellent, thanks.

Headline made it sound as if DHS approves.

It sure does -— I nearly choked on my lunch.

It’s ironic that politicians, lawmakers, judges, governors, mayors - even presidential candidates are out there happily telling us that the law shouldn’t matter.

If the law doesn’t matter: what do we need any of these people for?

Maryland is trying to do this. I’m glad the Gov isn’t ok with the democrats in office trying to push it hard. He’s planning to block it, but it’s hard to say how things will turn out.

Put all California Democrat politicians on no fly lists.

Let them fly out. Then revoke their passports.

If you really want their attention, cut Medicaid or highway funds to those states.

Actually it would be more Prudent to just DISALLOW Any Identification from California for Travel Purposes. PUNISH THE ENTIRE STATE and watch things turn around overnight.

My Arizona drivers license states that it is not valid for Federal ID; i.e., TSA. Supposedly, TSA will start to enforce this in a couple of years. So, why should a drivers license from California be accepted by TSA?!
