DOJ warns California officials to 'stand down
Fox News ^ | 10/24/2025 | Alexandra Koch

U.S. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche issued a formal letter to top California officials Thursday, warning them against any attempts to arrest or impede federal law enforcement officers enforcing immigration laws.

The letter, addressed to Gov. Gavin Newsom; state Attorney General Rob Bonta; Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.; and San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins, stressed that federal agents and officers are carrying out lawful duties, and any interference by state or local officials is both "illegal and futile."

The letter was sent after Pelosi, the former House Speaker, and Rep. Kevin Mullin, D-Calif., issued a statement Wednesday threatening to arrest federal agents if they break California law.

"Reports of a planned mass immigration raid in the Bay Area are an appalling abuse of law enforcement power," Pelosi and Mullin wrote in the statement. "While the President may enjoy absolute immunity courtesy of his rogue Supreme Court, those who operate under his orders do not. … The people of San Francisco will continue to stand with the patriotic immigrants who are the constant reinvigoration of America."

"While the President may enjoy absolute immunity courtesy of his rogue Supreme Court"

"Rogue Supreme Court?" Kind of sounds like Pelosi is suggesting that her minions do something about rulings she doesn't agree with. Something similar to an insurrection and a "threat to democracy" IMHO . . .

California is overrun with illegals. We need an army of ICE to even put a tiny dent in the problem here. People should ask themselves. Why did the democrats do this to us?

Sounds like an insurrection.

The actual number of legal voting democrats in our nation is about one third the number of democrat votes counted in the last presidential election. The dems need a large number of alien voters to keep the scam going.

When Alcatraz is ready for inmates, these California “officials” should be incarcerated with the first batch.

Votes, so they could stay in office and grift state, federal monies. Fear of being murdered by cartels, fear of the cancel culture mob. All of the above.

“The people of San Francisco will continue to stand with the patriotic immigrants...”


These would be the patriotic immigrants waving the Mexican flag, I’d guess, or killing people with their semis.

Pelosi needs a big dose of that reinvigoration.
