During his campaign, Trump said he would cancel all federal funding to so-called “sanctuary cities.” On Saturday, Hodges pledged to ignore President Trump when he takes office. According to Hodges, she will see to it that Minneapolis law enforcement officers will not assist federal agents in tracking down illegal aliens.
Hodges released a statement Saturday titled “Support for Immigrant Community Keeps Minneapolis Safer”:
“I will continue to stand by immigrants in Minneapolis. For years, Minneapolis has codified in ordinance that our police officers will not do the work of the Federal government and ICE regarding immigration status. If police officers were to do the work of ICE it would harm our ability to keep people safe and solve crimes. Witnesses and victims of crimes won’t come forward if they think our police officers will question or detain them about their immigration status. Our ordinance has helped us solve crime and keep communities safer. If our police were doing the work of ICE, Minneapolis would be less safe for everyone, regardless of immigration status.

I haven’t. And do not intend to start.
really stupid question. can my idiot Governor Cuomo call out the National Guard to protect the illegals if he wanted to do? I know that sounds dumb but I don’t know the answer. trust me he is that much of an imbecile
San Francisco is already trying g to figure out how much money they will lose because they are going to continue being a sanctuary city.
Arrest her if she doesn’t comply.

Typical leftist arrogance from Minnecraponus. I am all for Minnecraponus becoming another Detroit. Yet the population would stay there since they embrace this kind of dreck.
Those who have challenged Trump have not made out very well.
Sorry to say it but that’s how I see it. I was hoping it would be good too.
Don’t know the answer to that one.
“wha dya mean the money wasn’t deposited by the feds?”
Not sure, last thing I heard was Trump's people were looking for her. Maybe someone local there knows what happened.

I think he can. But then Trump could declare the forces to be under the control of the federal government. I think Trump would win.
no orders needed - just eliminate all federal funds going into the city - one thing politicians know well - money talks.
And the illegals will converge on her city. Then she’ll be impeached.
Sounds like a federal crime. Orange is the new black.
And send ICE up North so her police force doesn’t have to lift a finger.
