ICAM with you on both counts! What the heck is wrong with these people! They are literally out of their minds and are openly campaigning and supporting lawlessness, illegals, foreign terrorists, and violent street gangs like the barbaric latino/hispanic butchers MS13 while preaching “white supremacy” domestic terrorism as the biggest threat to the most diverse populated country in the world!. It’s crazy and Democrats themselves have devolved into the biggest threat to the Nation.

And then they go from crazy to cruel with what they want to do to seniors in this country with their “medicare for all” plan and the GOP better shout LOUD & CLEAR during the 2020 campaigns of just exactly what the Democrats want to do to seniors in this country regarding their health care.

On the bright side, unless overturned, a federal court is about to ban detainers in all but nine states…

These people hate ever aspect of enforcing our immigration laws, offer no alternatives, and yet take offense at being called for supporting open borders.

46

We’re capable of both, securing the border as well as monitoring supremacist groups regardless of skin pigmentation.

Nah, ICE is just government overreach after 9/11 and is being twisted into an anti-immigrant agency. Who cares, they need to dissolved.

Sure. :joy:

Engaging in arrests and detentions is not the voluntary exchange of immigration information. The Supreme Court has already ruled that 8 U.S. Code § 1373 cannot be used to conscript local law enforcement to assist ICE in arrests, raids, and detaining suspects. The very Fox News story you link to in the OP mentions this.

50

Are you trying to prove some kind of point? Let me know when antifa becomes one of the FBI’s most dangerous threats to America.

51

Hey none are! Did you know that??

52

Why not at all! What upstanding people they are! :rofl:

:roll_eyes:

That nonsense has absolutely nothing to do with local officials violating the law by forbidding police officers to cooperate with ICE if they choose to do so voluntarily.

8 U.S. Code § 1373 - Communication between government agencies and the Immigration and Naturalization Service

(a) In general

Notwithstanding any other provision of Federal, State, or local law, a Federal, State, or local government entity or official may not prohibit, or in any way restrict, any government entity or official from sending to, or receiving from, the Immigration and Naturalization Service information regarding the citizenship or immigration status, lawful or unlawful, of any individual.

(b) Additional authority of government entitiesNotwithstanding any other provision of Federal, State, or local law, no person or agency may prohibit, or in any way restrict, a Federal, State, or local government entity from doing any of the following with respect to information regarding the immigration status, lawful or unlawful, of any individual:

(1)

Sending such information to, or requesting or receiving such information from, the Immigration and Naturalization Service.

(2)

Maintaining such information.

(3)

Exchanging such information with any other Federal, State, or local government entity.

c Obligation to respond to inquiries

The Immigration and Naturalization Service shall respond to an inquiry by a Federal, State, or local government agency, seeking to verify or ascertain the citizenship or immigration status of any individual within the jurisdiction of the agency for any purpose authorized by law, by providing the requested verification or status information.

It’s not a “Deep State”. It’s a subversive “Shadow Government” which began to entrench itself during Ronald Reagan’s presidency. Its mission being, to advance GLOBALIST and socialist policies, and obstruct attempts to roll back such policies.

Fox News erred by omission. They never reported that the court ruling specifically prohibits local officials to prevent police from voluntarily cooperating with ICE!

Let us read Judge Harry D. Leinenweber’s recent WRITTEN OPINION which touches upon this very issue: 8 U.S. Code § 1373 - Communication between government agencies and the Immigration and Naturalization Service

“The constitutionality of Section 1373 has been challenged before. The Second Circuit in City of New York v. United States, 179 F.3d 29 (2d Cir. 1999), addressed a facial challenge to Section 1373 in similar circumstances. By executive order, New York City prohibited its employees from voluntarily providing federal immigration authorities with information concerning the immigration status of any alien. Id. at 31-32. The city sued the United States, challenging the constitutionality of Section 1373 under the Tenth Amendment.

Id. at 32.

_The Second Circuit found that Section 1373 did not compel state or local governments to enact or administer any federal regulatory program or conscript local employees into its service, and therefore did not run afoul of the rules gleaned from the Supreme Court’s Printz and New York decisions. City of New York, 179 F.3d at 35. Rather, the court held that Section 1373 prohibits local governmental entities and officials only from directly restricting the voluntary exchange of immigration information with the INS. Ibid. The Court found that the Tenth Amendment, normally a shield from federal power, could not be turned into “a sword allowing states and localities to engage in passive resistance that frustrates federal programs.”
.

So, local police cannot be restricted in the voluntary exchange of immigration information with the INS. Ibid. The Court found that the Tenth Amendment, normally a shield from federal power, could not be turned into “a sword allowing states and localities to engage in passive resistance that frustrates federal programs.

Whoever issued the command to forbid police officers from voluntarily cooperating with ICE Agents needs to be identified and prosecuted.

It’s not democrats who are destroying the country, stupid. It’s the Democrat Party Leadership that is destroying the Country by trying to overturn an election with a witch-hunt, falsely called an impeachment.

55

Which totally misses the point that since they are illegal they should be kept out of the country and none of their crimes could take place.

The left wing pols apparently consider American citizens collateral damage. Shameful.

Chicago Police Officers instructed to ignore rule of law: Do not cooperate with ICE

Who writes their paychecks, DC or City of Chicago?
Are they enforcers of state or federal law? Are they sworn to enforce federal law?
Do you want local cops to enforce federal law?

57

Who pays them. Who carries their bonds? What entity is responsible for adhering to their union contract? Who licenses them?

58

Go for it!

59

agreed. As long as they get votes, they don’t care, whom, or where it is coming from. No matter at what cost!

60

Let us remember that with our current judicial structure, a ruling from the Supreme Court over rides an opinion from a judge on a district court.

61

Hey if Rudy Giuliani can ignore a subpoena from Congress for an impeachment inquiry, surely Barney Fife can ignore an arrest “warrant” from ICE for a deportation order.

62

Our current judicial system? Hasn’t our judicial system pretty much always worked this way?
