More Sanctuary Cities Caving To Trump
Legal Insurrection ^ | 2/11/17

Posted on 02/11/2017 6:10:46 PM PST by markomalley

n today’s feel good news: Several more cities have joined Miami in rejecting sanctuary city status in fear of losing federal funding.

Fox News reports:

Several towns, cities and counties around the nation are caving to President Trump’s threat to pull funding, and abandoning their “sanctuary” pledges to shield illegal immigrants from federal authorities.

Dayton, Ohio, dropped a policy that restricted the city’s cooperation with immigration officials pursuing illegal immigrants arrested for misdemeanors or felony property crimes, according to the Dayton Daily News. Police Chief Richard Biehl said federal authorities will no longer be impeded by the city when pursuing illegal immigrants being held by his department.

Other communities that have dropped policies of shielding illegal immigrant suspects from Immigration and Customs Enforcement include Miami-Dade and Dayton, are Saratoga, N.Y., Finney County, Kan., and Bedford, Penn., according to The Center for Immigration Studies, which keeps a list of sanctuary communities.

“We are reviewing policy changes at a multitude of other jurisdictions as well,” said Marguerite Telford, CIS’s director of communications, who said the organization is “being inundated” by officials on its sanctuary map who want to be taken off.

. . . .  Ira Mehlman, spokesman for the Federation for American Immigration Reform, or FAIR, predicted many more communities will be dropping or dramatically modifying their sanctuary stances.

“We’re going to see more of this,” Mehlman told Fox News. “Faced with the possibility of losing federal dollars, they’ll choose to keep funding public services rather than protecting illegal aliens.”

I have read that if cities don’t cooperate 100%, that not only can their funding be stopped, but the Government can make them repay PRIOR funding going back many years!

I believe they are lying through their stinkin teeth.

They love muslims and love they ways muslims can lie.

They are doing liberal socialist al-taqiyaa.

So sad to see where
this once beautiful
city has digressed.
(I’m guessing this is
San Francisco). Grew
up in that area (Santa
Rosa). Petaluma had a huge
housing boom at the time.
My dad “broke me in” to
hanging Sheetrock. House
after house. Rarely saw
any hispanics, as most were
white or black. Roofers, plumbers,
electricians, rockers, tapers,
painters....

Miami in rejecting sanctuary city status, and I understand from another thread that Ivanka’s brother-in-law might buy the Miami Marlins.

I wonder if one has anything to do with the other.

Last year in Dayton they caught an MS13 member pushing drugs who had been deported 3 times. Now with drugs being so bad here, why would the democratic mayor want to protect and keep someone like that in our city. MONEY?

These jack asses in those cities will either capitulate and express contrition or we will prosecute and imprison them for obstructing criminal justice like NIXON. We not only EO their money GONE but we have a Homeland Security Force od 250,000 agents. 2500 armored personaell carriers . 50,000 AR 15s and 1 BILLION rounds of .223 ammo. . Itn is ours now!! Get on your worthless knees , you illegal alien loving POS!~

Thanks . We have got to fight this insanity with all we have. I am not a racists. I am part Cherokee- part English and Scot. I don’t give a crap about race.I have Black heroes— I assure you. I love Mexican Americans that are here legally. I have helped them and relied on them my entire life. But I will be damned if you destroy the integrity of this country with communist judges and altruism. I am pissed.
