Lets start with Hernandez of Austin.
All he has to do is fire them and replace them.
The man in the wheelchair stands taller than the rest. His spine may be broken, but at least he has one.
It would be a laugh to watch Sally Hernandez waddling down the street, chased by Texas Rangers, as they arrest her.
Guess he hasn’t heard.
In the 21st century, it is Sheriffs who enforce the laws who get in trouble.
“Could Put Sheriffs of Sanctuary Cities in Jail”
Yep, he could but will he?
The adults are in charge again.
Exactly what we need. These supposed enforcers of the law are not allowed to pick and choose which laws they care to enforce.
This is an example of actually doing something. Note to “conservatives” in congress.
I think the most effective law that could be passed by congress is any family of a victim of illegal aliens can sue the city if they failed to cooperate with the federal government
Go get ‘em, Tex! I’ve met Governor Greg Abbott and he’s one of the nicest people on the planet. He’ll take good care of Texas.
Sheriffs and mayors, police chiefs, judges, governors and others in positions of authority who actively harbor or give aid and comfort to criminal illegal aliens and fugitives and or otherwise sabotage or interfere with or enter into criminal conspiracies working in concert with others to thwart border security and or immigration law enforcement efforts.
I thought this was a done deal ready-made for that heralded February 1 showdown with the commie sheriff in Austin.
Wake me when the prison door clanks shut on one of them.

Abbott said, We have been pushing a piece of legislation in Texas that is going to pass that I will be signing into law that imposes even sterner penalties on counties. It will include things such as further defunding them. It will impose fines. And it could impose jail time for these sheriffs to enforce the laws. Oddly enough these sheriffs could wind up behind the very bars they are releasing these criminals from.

We need MORE laws...to *ENFORCE* those we don’t enforce today!
The 1996 immigration law ("Illegal Immigration Reform Act of 1996") specifically requires local officials and governments to fully cooperate with the federal government on issues regarding illegal aliens.
A state or local government entity or official may not prohibit, or in any way restrict, any government entity or official from sending to, or receiving from, the Immigration and Naturalization Service information regarding the citizenship or immigration status, lawful or unlawful, of any individual.
Title VIII, U.S. Code section 1373.
Failure or refusal of local governments and officials to cooperate fully is a violation of the law.
AND - If a local official violates the law and that violation results in a death the official can be prosecuted and receive up to a LIFE SENTENCE in prison.
As in the case of Kate Steinle who was murdered in cold blood by an illagal alien being harbored by the city government in San Francisco.
It is time for the US Attorney General to start bringing charges agains local officials who are violating this law.
BONUS TIME! It was signed into law by Bill Clinton.

Texas Rangers, front and center!
Shouldn’t he be arresting Mayors, Chiefs of Police, City Council people instead?
Maybe Texas has different laws, but the ones I’m used to, Sheriff’s Jurisdictions are primarily the unincorporated areas of a county, and it gets kind of tricky when Sheriff’s want to enforce laws in the cities and villages that have their own police forces.
And it is also tricky to arrest a Sheriff, as Constitutionally THEY are the highest law Enforcement official within their own counties. State officials and Federal officials do not have authority over the Sheriff within his county.
Only the voters of the county as a whole have authority over a Duly Elected Sheriff.

Now, if A Sheriff declares his county to be a ‘Sanctuary County, then Yeah, Something needs to be figured out. At the very least, (s)he needs to be removed from office by the County electorate.
But if some dumbass City official declares his city to be a sanctuary for illegals, that is not necessarily a reflection on the County Sheriff.
Interesting idea.
Take the federal money that Jeff Sessions has said that he will withhold to sanctuary cities, states, and use it for the wall!
Yessss!!! Finally, a statesman with backbone.
The sooner the better.
