WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump on Thursday said he would withhold money from so-called sanctuary jurisdictions after a U.S. court ruled that his administration could block federal law enforcement funds to states and cities that do not cooperate with federal immigration authorities.
The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan granted the move on Feb. 26, but three other federal appeals courts have agreed to uphold an injunction against the withholding of such funds, setting up a possible appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
“As per recent Federal Court ruling, the Federal Government will be withholding funds from Sanctuary Cities. They should change their status and go non-Sanctuary. Do not protect criminals!” Trump tweeted, although he gave no other details.
The Republican president, who is seeking re-election in the Nov. 3 election, has taken a hardline stance toward legal and illegal immigration. His battle against Democratic-led “sanctuary” jurisdictions focuses on laws and policies making it harder for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials to find and arrest immigrants they consider deportable.

Good grief. What a poorly written opinion piece.
I do believe this is to be inserted into the “Winning” file!
HOORAY Chief. DOXX the addresses of SANCTUARIANS so that INVADERS have nice places to stay. Why work in the yard? That house is yours. Make the former squatters do the yard work.
PUT YOUR HOUSE WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS MOFOS
Good. Arrest the Mayors and Governors. Then again, I defy anyone to ARREST a politician in this country. Instead, yak... yak... yak... Pathetic.
“The Republican president, who is seeking re-election in the Nov. 3 election, has taken a hardline stance toward legal and illegal immigration.”
Since has the president taken a hard line stance towards legal immigration?
There’ll be an injunction and it will go to Supreme Court for a decision by 2027.
It isn't ICE who determines who is "deportable", it's a Federal Immigration Judge.The article doesn't say ICE "determines" who is deportable.

No mention of a "judge" or a "court order". Just the "hardline" stance of our President and "ICE officials" who arrest immigrants they "consider deportable". I don't know how you can interpret it any other way. Bad / biased journalism.
Like the fires of Cali.
NYC has already declared an emergency related to corona, iirc.
