Over the past 18 years, officers at Maryland’s Frederick County jail have asked thousands of inmates two standard questions: What country are you a citizen of? And where were you born?
If the answer was anything other than the United States, local officers deputized with special federal authority launched an investigation into whether the person was in the country illegally. Since 2008, Frederick County has turned over 1,884 people to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Sheriff Charles Jenkins said.
But that is coming to an immediate halt under a law signed Tuesday by Democratic Gov. Wes Moore that prohibits immigration enforcement agreements with the federal government.
The new Maryland law highlights the extent to which Democratic-led states are pushing back against President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown. Ten states — all led by Democrats — now have statewide policies prohibiting law enforcement officers from cooperating in one of the primary programs Trump is using to carry out his agenda of mass deportations.
Laws banning cooperative agreements with ICE were signed earlier this month in New Mexico and took effect last month in Maine. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul also is backing legislation that would ban local law officers from being deputized by ICE. And Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger recently terminated state ICE agreements signed under her Republican predecessor, though her order didn’t cancel existing arrangements with local sheriffs.
Democratic resistance has increased as the Trump administration faces mounting scrutiny over its large-scale immigration enforcement efforts in several cities and the fatal shootings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by federal agents in Minnesota.
“There needs to be accountability for this organization, because right now the Trump-Vance ICE operation is not moving with proper accountability measures,” Moore told reporters after signing the new restrictions.

Some states are saying yes.
The Insurrection Act of 1807 is a U.S. federal law that allows the president to deploy the military domestically to suppress insurrections, enforce federal laws, or protect constitutional rights when state authorities fail or refuse to act. It serves as a key exception to the Posse Comitatus Act, which otherwise prohibits military involvement in civilian law enforcement.
I bet a decent chuck were illegally registered to vote and the Dems know this.
Wes Moore is a racist dimmocrap turd. He thinks only of his own political ambitions and not of the logical results of his idiotic leniency. He is basically, like your typical dimmocrap, lawless. He obeys what laws agree with his agenda and rallies against those laws more in line with the Constitution than the dimmocrap agenda. He is despicable. If I read he was run over by a car driven by an illegal, I would simply say, “He got what he deserved!”
Every single state legislator that voted for that crap and any governor signing off on it of these states should be arrested tonight and charged with insurrection. Then, hustled off to GITMO to face a miliary tribunal and jailed there never to be seen or heard from ever again...Spitl
Cankles now demands examples.
Still the most ineffective methods possible. Instead of chasing random Mexicans down the street. we need to turn off the magnet.
Have the Sec of Treasury shut down all remittances and require banks to ascertain citizenship or legal status to have a bank account.
Arrest and prosecute any employer who has more than 10 illegals, there’s no way that’s a simple mistake.
Make it illegal to for them to sign a rental agreement, get a mortgage or register a car.
But that would take balls and a willingness to upset bankers and big businesses.
MOTOR Voter!!!
Put a bounty on them. A lot of ex-girlfriends and baby mamas will turn them in.
Stop making sense! It’s racist!
The cops might be worried their wives may cut them off.
Frederick County has been overrun with illegal aliens for quite some time. Sheriff Jenkins was the firewall.
CUT OFF FEDERAL FUNDS-—FOR EVERYTHING THEY CAN
If it’s municipalities and counties signing the agreements I don’t see how the state can interfere.

Him: "Honey, what would you do if I hit the lottery?"
Her: "Really!?!"
Him: "Yeah, what would you do if I hit the lottery?"
Her: "No... Really!?!"
Him: "Yeah, what would you do if I hit the lottery?"
Her: "I'd divorce you and take half."
Him: "Good. I hit $40. Here's $20. See ya."
No place in MD is more overrun with illegals than Langley Park and Wheaton.
Wes Moore /massive eyeroll. I hate this state.
“ But that is coming to an immediate halt under a law signed Tuesday by Democratic Gov. Wes Moore that prohibits immigration enforcement agreements with the federal government.”
Sorry, AP. I heard the sheriff of Frederick County today, and he said that while they had to terminate their agreement, there was nothing in the law that said they couldn’t continue calling ICE. The Dims immediately said they would pass a law preventing that.
Looks like Annapolis just moved up a few position on ICE’s dance card. Enjoy the tear gas, you loons!
Welcome to my nightmare.
My light bill now exceeds my widow pension.
