As the debate over President Trump’s immigration policy and initiatives grows, so does his apparent determination to see his campaign promises put into action. The left, as expected, is in a fit of self-righteous rage over the efforts being made to curtail illegal immigration and remove illegals from the US, especially those who have committed crimes. However, also as expected, Mr. Trump is not backing down in the face of such resistance to the enforcement of the law, but is doubling-down.
The possibility of federal over-reach is a concern, especially in matters of law enforcement. Most crimes are of a local nature, and as such are the proper responsibility of state and local law enforcement. Injecting federal authorities into local matters is seldom a good idea no matter how it appealing it might be at the time. Hence, those who love liberty should be concerned when they see anything that appears to move towards the federalization of the state and local police.
All of this said, we are in anything but a normal environment. Cities and states are in active rebellion against established federal laws regarding immigration, and are harboring illegals in an effort to thwart their deportation. It’s an outrageous situation, so it comes as little surprise that the solution being implemented is somewhat unconventional. More on page two.
What don’t you understand ?
Yaaaaahooooooo!!!
I may not agree with Trump on everything, but damn, when’s the last time you saw the POTUS trying that hard to keep his campaign promises? Glad we have a president that tells it like it is without sugarcoating.
Norene….I agree MS 13…get them out. But who did he go after first? A working housewife from Phoenix who has been in the US 18 years and working and raising children. Yesterday sge was arrested as she went to her yearly scheduled immigration appointment.
John Davis, if you think the federal government can’t cut funding for not complying with federal laws, you’re sadly mistaken
Gabor Falvy if you had read the article you would have seen that Trump is trying to revive a long standing Govt. program that has been dormant. The program helps deputize local police to assist the feds. So, Trump cannot and will not do the deputizing himself.
Richard, open you eyes he said the criminals aliens. The following is a post I made earlier.
Steve Harris you are so right that is exactly what he said. Wait until these MS-13 gangs come into your home and take all of you electronics, guns, jewelry and money and then spray their gang signs all over your walls, like they did in my brother’s home when he was in the hospital. This gang is notorious and they are throughout the United States and they have over 70,000 members. (Look it up on google) So you don’t think these illegals are dangerous? You better think again.
