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.
Illegals who come from anti American countries can always have bad actors who disrespect us
Where’s a cop when you need one eh?
Bill Elliott I think that’s a turkey neck.
If Obama can put men in the women’s restrooms I guess Trump can enforce laws that are being disregarded by Liberals and Democrats.
EXACTLY
Hire more police
Y’all ain’t got to worry about aliens in my neck of the woods . they rent a house we burn them out . we have none here.
People just quit helping and letting this happen giving jobs and such , they wouldn’t come here. Simple
Darrell Burchett dramatic much?
Dottie Lashley , Nancy Pelosi told the mother whose son was beaten to death by illegal immigrants that sanctuary cities made the country SAFER because then illegal immigrants were unafraid to “help” the police. I’m not making this up. She actually said that!
