The Justice Department has ordered federal prosecutors to investigate state or local officials who they believe are interfering with the Trump administration’s crackdown on immigration, saying they could face criminal charges, in an apparent warning to the dozens of so-called sanctuary jurisdictions across America.
The memo, from acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove, signals a sharp turnabout in priorities from President Joe Biden’s Democratic administration, with the Justice Department’s civil division told to identify state and local laws and policies that “threaten to impede” the Trump administration’s immigration efforts and potentially challenge them in court.

In Chicago, which has some of the strongest sanctuary protections nationwide, city leaders brushed off word of potential investigations. The nation’s third-largest city has been a sanctuary city for decades, limiting cooperation between police and federal immigration agents.
“If the federal government is going to investigate, that is their prerogative,” said Alderman Andre Vasqez, who is Mayor Brandon Johnson’s handpicked chair of the City Council immigration committee.
Vasquez, the son of two Guatemalan immigrants, noted a 2016 campaign rally at the University of Illinois Chicago that Trump abruptly scrapped as crowds of boisterous protesters grew. The cancellation remains a badge of honor for many young activists in the Democratic stronghold.
“There will always be that kind of relationship between Chicago, President Trump and the Republican Party,” said Vasquez. “I was born and raised in Chicago, in an immigrant family. It will take more than that to make me feel a little scared.”

In the local governments are successful in resisting federal initiatives, then turn them into concentrated ghettos of illegals. Burn them down fiscally.
Are you saying our men CANT physically take those areas??

Why so lenient??
Blood might get spilled??
That’s what may happen when you DONT OBEEY THE CONSTITUTION.
Arrest and incarcerate on obstruction.
“ In the local governments are successful in resisting federal initiatives, then turn them into concentrated ghettos of illegals. Burn them down fiscally.”
That is the way.
Go after illegals where you can do so most effectively. Make them flee to sanctuary until the local citizens are fed up. This is already happening in Chicago.
Last month’s city council public meeting:

Where is Mrs. O’Leary’s cow when we need her.
Arrest and incarcerate on insurrection.
Its going to be a Fugitive Slave Act replay with every Sodomite local thinking they are Harriet Tubman.
We can be aggressive, even to the point of arresting resisting officials and the use of violence where needed in enforcement and break them, or hold back and see the end of our country.
Remember, the Bolsheviks portray killing babies as noble and heroic.
hopefully it does not come to violence
terminating all federal funds will cause a huge attitude adjustment
like previous poster said, “burn it down fiscally”
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I Hope this is exactly what we see , if there is obstruction!!!!
Andre is living in the past. The nation and city’s attitude has changed drastically since 2016.
FAFO wey.
EC
I hope Homan throws Alderman Andre Vasqez in one of the “J6” medieval prison cells for a long “vacay.” We’ll see what happens to Vasquez’s bravado.
The first thing to look at...are this clowns parents illegals? If so, we have a twofer!
“The first thing to look at...are this clowns parents illegals? “
You know they are.
Vazquez better watch out. Homen will eventually be coming after “anchor babies” next. He better be scared. The party is over.
