LOS ANGELES (AP) — Former Los Angeles County Sheriff Jim McDonnell, who was sworn in as the chief of the Los Angeles Police Department on Friday, will draw one of the highest police chief salaries in the U.S. for a major city....

“I want to be unequivocal. LAPD will protect L.A.’s immigrant community. We will not cooperate with mass deportations and on an individual level, officers will not take action to determine a person’s immigration status and will not arrest them for that status,” McDonnell said. “Los Angeles is a city of immigrants, and my job is to protect this city. That’s exactly what I’ll do.”

He acknowledged the fears brought on by President Donald Trump’s victory on Tuesday and his campaign promises of mass deportation. McDonnell said he would not work with federal agencies on immigration enforcement issues.

Sixty-five year old McDonnell will collect his record salary on top of pensions earned for 29 years in the LAPD, as LA County Sheriff, and as Long Beach’s police chief for 5 years.

Sanctuary state. This guy says he won’t participate in mass deportations of illegals. Maybe we should deport all illegals to L.A. and let Mr Sheriff deal with it then....

[kiryandil]

Greasy little NeverTrumping puke.

[frank ballenger]

Police protecting the illegal aliens (”immigrants”) and not asking them anything....

Sounds like the illegals can find fresh, new victims among the populace.

Part of the serious problem of being a Leftist in California.

Soft on crime is part of the deal for putting their snouts into the taxpayer money trough. 🐽

If there’s a home invasion or a woman jogger gets snatched and pulled into a van and taken away then the government benefits can’t be spent on pleasure. ⚰️

Good. Then arrest him and no federal monies.

Highest paid, huh. What happened to the libs defunding the police?

[...] officers will not take action to determine a person’s immigration status and will not arrest them for that status," McDonnell said.

But officers will check to see if they are in arrears with Child Support, and will arrest them if they are tardy in making payments.

Hmm, zero based budgeting for all CA Fed. monies?
Make them EARN every dime of taxpayer funding, for that they HAVE to cooperate in Fed. immigration enforcement.

“I want to be unequivocal. LAPD will protect L.A.’s immigrant community. We will not cooperate with mass deportations and on an individual level, officers will not take action to determine a person’s immigration status and will not arrest them for that status,” McDonnell said.

Defund the LAPD.

Self serving ass

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Relocate ICE headquarters and training school to LA. Plenty of subjects for the trainees to "practice" on.

C’mon, Man!

We just need to double or triple his salary. Then.......we can all ride unicorns with lavender scent; all the homeless and derelicts will see the light, sober up, work for the betterment of all mankind:

Mr President,

This is why you need to start telling the country on your Social Media and in Press Announcements that you will be ENFORCING FEDERAL LAWS regarding aiding and abetting ILLEGAL ALIENS. With Sworn “Public Servants” like this OPENLY DEFYING long standing and well established FEDERAL LAWS and in the process committing multiple FELONIES right in YOUR FACE, It’s time to let them know how things work.

8 USC 1324

THERE ARE NO EXEMPTIONS, EXCLUSIONS OR IMMUNITY for ANYONE under this LAW and every last person including Judges, Lawyers, Public Officials, Elected Officials, EMPLOYERS and anyone else on the Planet is eligible to be CRIMINALLY PROSECUTED FOR OPENLY VIOLATING FEDERAL LAW.

[mewzilla]

And that doesn’t include the insanely generous pension or the cadillac health bennies.

“I want to be unequivocal. LAPD will protect L.A.’s immigrant community. We will not cooperate with mass deportations and on an individual level, officers will not take action to determine a person’s immigration status and will not arrest them for that status,” McDonnell said.

Sounds like an insurrectionists to me. The new FBI will need to look into this and into others in the cabal saying they'll work against Trump and against our laws.

[ansel12]

For those wondering the figure is $450,000.

[bert]

Where’s Zorro when he’s needed?

[flamberge]

We will not cooperate with mass deportations and on an individual level, officers will not take action to determine a person’s immigration status and will not arrest them for that status,”

The new police chief should already be fired.

Let's get Federal prosecutions for violation of immigration laws, convictions, and some real jail time for all of these public officials.

Does Your Sheriff Think He’s More Powerful Than the President?

Richard Mack has built a “Constitutional sheriff” movement to resist state and federal authority on guns, COVID-19 and now election results. A new survey shows just how many sheriffs agree with him.
