Donald Trump's immigration crackdown is fracturing his own party, with Republican governors openly defying the White House over detention expansion as political fallout from the carnage in Minneapolis threatens to cost him at the midterms.
Kristi Noem was rebuffed this week when she tried to build a new illegal migrant camp in New Hampshire by the state's Republican Governor Kelly Ayotte.
Merrimack residents were outraged when it emerged that the Homeland Security Secretary planned to use their town to expand Trump's mass deportation effort.
Ayotte, a moderate Republican governing a blue state, informed Noem that she would not assist in the construction of the facility, according to Politico.
Noem faced further pushback in Mississippi when the state's senior GOP senator, Roger Wicker, successfully derailed her plans for a proposed site earlier in February.
'It's a huge problem,' a Trump administration official told Politico. 'The mismanagement of Minneapolis lost us the narrative, and the dominos are falling as a result.'
The rift between the Trump administration and state Republicans comes amid mounting political backlash against the Minneapolis crackdown, where two Americans were shot dead by immigration agents.
An ICE spokesman attempted to downplay Noem's failure to build new immigration detention facilities by claiming the secretary had a 'great discussion' with Ayotte last week. The spokesperson added that Noem plans to 'carry out the largest deportation effort in American history' and 'keep Americans safe.'
Republican hesitation to back Trump's mass deportation agenda also comes as the midterm elections approach.
Republicans hold a slim majority in both the House and the Senate, with recent polling suggesting Democrats are poised to flip one or both chambers.
If the GOP suffers heavy losses in November, Trump would enter the final two years of his term as a lame-duck president.

“””Kristi Noem was rebuffed this week when she tried to build a new illegal migrant camp in New Hampshire by the state’s Republican Governor Kelly Ayotte.”””
I thought it was a real Republican governor. Then I saw it was only New Hampshire.
It seems to me Noem can build what she wants if it’s on federal land.
Republican Governor Kelly Ayotte needs to be investigated for ties to the Cartels.
A real stinkaroo article from this European communist rag. Not worth a posting let alone a read.
The GOP hates the Trump Admin.
Never underestimate the systematic cowardice of Republican politicians facing leftist media. They’ll leave the illegals in place to “vote” their own demise.
Is getting rid of “Motor Voter” part of the SAVE Act? Or does it address that problem some other way?
No, it's exposing the corrupt and the globalists in both parties.
Thank you, Daily Smell. How’s that whole immigration thing working for you limeys?
Wobbly kneed Republicans? Say it ain’t so!
How lame duck was Obama in his last 2 years?
Exactly, the kids at The Mail hate Trump and it shows
Ayotte is a homely little thing...looks a bit like a man.
Ayotte distanced herself from Trump, maybe over the Access Hollywood tape, and lost her Senate seat despite (or because of) that.
Pick up the bad people in other places and dump them all in New Hampshire since they want them.
Mostly wish casting and fabrication, uses a few innocuous facts the create an entire false narrative for their political desires.
In otherwards, lying propaganda divorced from reality.
Two words:
Supremacy
Clause
Maybe Gov.Hot to Trott doesn’t want to spoil his kick back scheme like there is in Minn that Walz, Ellison and Frey have going, or Ayotte is a dem who ran as a Republican because dems are broke and would not kick money into his campaign as a dem.
Sometimes it is too difficult to get what you want directly, as in eastern Ukraine.

Fighting in Congress to send middle-class income and property taxation cap constitutional amendments to the states would make Congress turn deep red come 2027.
Enter in bills for two constitutional amendments:
******
Levies on any residential property of less than 2799 square feet of finished living space shall be no higher than the 2019 dollar amounts for the property, or for a newer or since resold property no higher than what it would have been levied at for 2019 if it lacked owner specific tax breaks, increased by 3% per calendar year since 2019 and by any percentage increase to its finished living space.
******
Federal taxation on personal income shall be progressively capped as follows:
below 20% of the median federal full-time civilian employee compensation amount, 10%,
below 50% of the median federal full-time civilian employee compensation amount, 22%,
below the median federal full-time civilian employee compensation amount, 30%,
below the average federal full-time civilian employee compensation of the 100,000 largest recipients, 35%,
below the average federal full-time civilian employee compensation of the 10,000 largest recipients, 40%.
******
The high-income people have the Laffer Curve effect to protect them.

Once the Democratic politicians are boxed in revenue-wise, their native-born voters will not want to share limited revenue with invaders.
