This Lefist loon Shreiff Sally Hernandez, that wants to cherry pick which laws she wants to enforce, of Travis County should be fired immeadilty by the Governor Abbott.

She is acting above the law, wreckless and most importantl endangering the public.

Waiting for the next crime to be committed by someone she set free. Trumps people need to keep a watchful eye for drunk driving, etc.

The municipal and state politicians and bureaucrats have to be held accountable. I’m not certain of the current Federal legislation but it needs to be made clear that anyone who aids and abets an illegal alien - whether a government official, business or individual, will be guilty of a felony. No illegal should ever be released on Bond.

Ouch. That one is going to sting a bit!!!

Texas cuts funding to Travis County over ‘sanctuary city’ policy

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-immigration-texas-idUSKBN15H07Y

Texas Governor Greg Abbott made good on his promise to cut $1.5 million in grant money to Travis County after the county sheriff said she would limit her department’s cooperation with federal immigration officers, county officials said on Wednesday.

Travis County includes the Texas capital Austin, which is a so-called “sanctuary city”.

Abbott spokeswoman Ciara Matthews said the money that would be withheld from Travis County is a series of one-time criminal justice grants totaling $1.8 million. About $300,000 of that has already been spent, but she said the governor would not try to claw back that money.

Sanctuary cities in general offer safe harbor to illegal immigrants and often do not use municipal funds or resources to advance the enforcement of federal immigration laws. Sanctuary city is not an official designation.

In January, newly elected Sheriff Sally Hernandez said in a statement on the Sheriff’s Office website that she was “following all state and federal laws, and upholding constitutional rights to due process for all in our criminal justice system. Our community is safer when people can report crimes without fear of deportation.”

Travis County could suffer all sorts of responses to this.

Loss of Federal Grants and Funds for LE
Loss of Federal protection and aegis for programs involving asset seizures
Loss of NICS use
Loss of FBI and federal support for its activities, and

Intense scrutiny by DOJ for possible violations of federal laws.

They cannot be allowed to pick and choose what federal laws they will and will not obey.

The Travis county Sheriff has proven her disloyalty to the citizens of the USA and the rule of law.

Anyone who aids and abets illegal aliens can be charged with harboring illegal aliens under current law.

“and upholding constitutional rights to due process for all in our criminal justice system.” Hate to break the news to the Sheriff but illegals have no constitutional rights.

Democrats are enacting “Operation Revolution” that they had well planned out of Hillary lost the election. The Democrats are in a full blown revolt to cause as much chaos, and terrorism until they gain control again. They don’t care how much damage they cause or how many lives are lost. It’s all about power to them.

Find a way to arrest her for criminal conspiracy. Charge her with aiding and abetting any crimes these illegals commit. A way needs to be figured out to stop these sanctuary city officials and give them a taste of the inside of a jail cell.

DHS should swarm that county with Boarder Patrol agents. Just the present of BP should scare the hell out them.

There need to be an ICE agent in EVERY police detention facility. Ever.Single.One. Every suspect released from custody must go through a mandatory citizenship check. Every one. We need thousands of more ICE agents. It would be money well spent and will pay for itself.

Anyone victimized by any of these illegals should sue the city. Taxpayers there need to feel some hurt.

What makes you think that will happen in liberal Travis County, which went for Hillary Clinton 66% to 27%?
