Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen confirmed Tuesday that her department has asked federal prosecutors to see if they can lodge criminal charges against sanctuary cities that refuse to cooperate with federal deportation efforts.
“The Department of Justice is reviewing what avenues may be available,” Ms. Nielsen told the Senate Judiciary Committee.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Tom Homan says those policies put his officers and local communities at more risk because they have to arrest illegal immigrants out in the community.
Mr. Homan told The Washington Times last July that he wanted to see local officials charged as complicit in human smuggling if they shielded illegal immigrants through sanctuary policies.

Would love to see all my elected officials in CA frog-marched into federal custody.
They also break their oath of office. This needs to be done to put a stop to this banana Republic slide we’re on.
But why did you change the original headline?
I didn’t, they did...............
We are also aware of the military training soldiers who return to the gang culture with the intent to do harm. But even as bad as it sounds, the numbers of patriotic veterans far outnumber the radicals that would do harm.
Freedom is not Free contrary to popular beliefs. One must always be ready to stand in the gap for liberty. President Trump is merely bringing to a head what many of have been looking for since Clinton was first elected. But the small numbers these people represent will be like hitting the twin towers - shocking, devastating, but the scale when compared to the American nation as a whole was insignificant statistically speaking.
The National Guard in each respective state are probably among the top fifty military organizations of the world, each state taken separately. Also, remember there are only enough foodstuffs in major cities to support 2-3 days of meals without resupply. The strategic centers of gravity in the violent areas of all big cities is well defined and could be easily contained, constrained, destroyed.
I put my faith in the American people and their resilience and resourcefulness.
LOL, I’ll bet jimrob did, MAGA!
Round’em up. Ship’em out.
No, that was the original headline.
WT editors must have got their panties in a bunch..........
Ohhhhh....interesting.
Please oh please say it’s so.
.....and Jesus will be returning any day now
.....and Jesus will be returning any day now
Could be................
Any city officials jailed for this by the Trump administration would be feted as “political prisoners” by the left.
I don’t think any federal prosecutors would get involved.
They would rather be harassing and prosecuting the Bundy family.

Matthew 24:42 King James Version
42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
Matthew 24:44 King James Version
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh
Please please PLEASE let this be true!
Defying the federal government in areas of law that are its province amounts to insurrection. Fire one shot, or hold up one rifle to hinder a federal agent, and it’s treason. Hang ‘em high.
