I would like to see a legal analysis of why local officials cannot be arrested for aiding and abetting criminal acts, obstruction of justice, and the like. Also, these officials should be subject to lawsuits by victims of crime perpetrated by sanctuary illegal aliens.

If I was in charge of ICE, this would be my cue to send a few thousand immigration officers to Oakland and begin rounding up EVERY LAST ILLEGAL ALIEN I could find.

Illegals MUST be members of the City Council, City Hall, County Commission, if they have such things, etc.

They are terrified ICE agents will come arrest them snorting cocaine at their desks and run them south of the border!
