So it isn't relevant that Newark, and NJ in general, flaunts federal law by refusing to even report illegal aliens, never mind arrest them, who the cops find there in the course of their criminal investigations?
How can city and state officials get away with blatantly refusing to even recognize federal immigration laws that don't fit their ultra-leftist political views, and who actually help lawbreakers evade those laws? If Congress had a pair it would cut off all federal funding to every state and city that refuses to enforce the laws of the land. But then Congress won't do anything to enforce immigration law itself, so it can't very well compel the states and cities to do what it won't do.
The American people had better stop worrying about things that actually are irrelevant, and start doing something relevant by cleaning house at the Capitol Building next year.
The only way we can affectively clean house is if voter fraud is cleaned up. Those checks and balances are in the hands of our congress critters. The creates a catch 22.
