Miami-Dade mayor orders jails to comply with Trump crackdown on ‘sanctuary’ counties
Miami Herald ^ | JANUARY 26, 2017 5:25 PM | PATRICIA MAZZEI

Fearing a loss of millions of dollars for defying immigration authorities, Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez on Thursday ordered county jails to comply with federal immigration detention requests — effectively gutting the county’s position as a “sanctuary” for immigrants in the country illegally.

Gimenez cited an executive order signed Wednesday by President Donald Trump that threatened to cut federal grants for any counties or cities that don’t cooperate fully with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Since 2013, Miami-Dade has refused to indefinitely detain inmates who are in the country illegally and wanted by ICE — not based on principle, but because the federal government doesn’t fully reimburse the county for the expense.

Imagine that, federal law is going to be enforced against criminal aliens and criminal mayors. When a city defies federal law on immigration, someone needs to visit the slammer for a few years. Piss on a few of these mayors and city officials and these criminal acts will end.

That right. The pounding and incoming directed at these terrible destructive policies only our enemies love, will continue.

Folks should have paid better attention to Trumps stern facial expression on inauguration day. That was no act. It's brand new day.

Victory and vengeance.

My county is not a sanctuary county but stopped calling ICE because they refused to come and pick up illegal aliens.

Dade Co. will probably get some extra consideration from the Trump administration for playing ball. Carrots and sticks.
Absolutely.”

Why should anyone be rewarded that has been breaking federal law for years? The only reward should maybe be no long jail sentence. Most of these lawless pimps need to pay a price, at least a fine.

Amazingly, this guy was on local Miami media today saying Trump’s immigration vetting was a good idea.

And IIRC, he endorsed Hitlery.

I am going to guess that’s about to change - though Trump may have to fire some more ICE personnel first.
