The Justice Department issued a new warning to sanctuary cities Tuesday, saying they must prove they fully cooperate with immigration agents in order to claim federal law enforcement grant money.

I agree, but Sessions has been GREAT on illegals. I can't think of another person who will be a bulldog on the illegal immigration issued.

Yup. With Rudy you may get the other but less so on illegals. That said, I wish sessions would back off federal marijuana laws. Much bigger fish to fry.

California doesn’t need government money- they can just use the tax money from the hard-working tax-paying aztec indians

Sessions only heed fire RosenKrantz and hire a number of “chainsaw” Als to clean house at Justice, including cleaning the serial colluder Mueller.

Guess you don't like to read past the headline: "Attorney General Jeff Sessions said jurisdictions that don’t allow federal agents into their prisons and jails, and that refuse to give at least 48 hours’ notice before releasing illegal immigrants, will lose money."

Under the law, and the principle of federalism, that’s about all he can do.
Congress needs to tie more local funding to obeying the law.

You're absolutely right and it's a shame it has to be done but the leftist run cities and counties are the reason.

Bulldog? Mr. “Watch out, or I shall threaten you a 2nd (or 3rd, or 4th, or...) time”?? You must mean some recent ‘raid’, like the ~400people\$1.5B MediXYZ fraud ‘bust’...”Look folks, I’m NOT asleep at the wheel!!”.

Maybe his dare to re-instate D.A.R.E., or promotion of Asset Forfeiture (vs. 4th A.) or patting on the back of the NV kangaroo-court vs. BLM ‘armed protesters’...

Sanctuary cities: Prima facie of law-breaking, aiding & abetting, and....they continue to do just that w/ the ‘blessing’ of the DOJ, headed by Rip Van Sessions.

Guess you don't like to read into the contents of the link, either: "The warning was attached to the Byrne Justice Assistance Grant program, which doles out nearly $400 million in funds."

Immigration is an issue nobody would even mention. Hell, they wouldn’t even say “illegal immigrant “. I’m sure you have Mr. Perfect all lined up for the job.

He could also find a way to defund courts which take up lawsuits they have no business hearing.
