3 Sanctuary Governors to Testify at House Oversight Committee

[protectionist]

Wrong.
Not only are local and state police legally able to ignore demands by ICE, it actually is totally illegal for local or state police to assist ICE in any way.

Those are state & local laws, which are trumped (no pun intended) by federal law (US Code 8, Section 1324). The only significance those local/state laws will have, is that they will be positive proof of the guilt of the sanctuary creeps, and will convict them automatically. Prosecutors will have no trouble looking for evidence.
It's all sitting right there, made to order, for federal prosecutors.

Rather mindboggling. This reminds me of the 1988 presidential election with Michael Dukakis claiming he was tough on crime while he was all for letting all the criminals run around loose, with many of them later committing violent crimes of rape, murder, you name it. The Repbublicans made mincemeat out of those issues and here we have the current democrat party wanting to pick this hill to die on.

My bet is that Anna Paulina, or one of the other Republicans on the Committee, will show these bums the prosecution papers going straight to Pam Bondi, as was in the previous hearing. The sooner the better.

And when they get into prison, bread & water, no TV, radio, computers, books, or any luxuries (except maybe monthly editions of Newsmax & this >>>

Does that mean they won't be able to watch PBS or listen to NPR?

Especially if they get the death penalty, which is entirely possible. Some people have DIED because of these insane, reckless policies. There has to be accountability here.

Awwwwwwwwwwwww, come on. Have some heart and some compassion. Everyone deserves a last meal and we can even let them listen to PBS or NPR while eating that last meal, just before the lethal drugs are injected.

While ICE may have federal jurisdiction over immigrant, the local and state police do not and therefore can not at all do anything to immigrants.
In fact, since ICE is illegally not giving hearings, then by the 14th amendment, the state and local police are legally required to arrest ICE as criminal.

Sounds like the line nazi saboteurs used in WWII.

Yup. No one should be above the law. You break federal laws, you get arrested, no matter who you are.

I'm afraid what we are seeing here is a large segment of our government not only willing to revolt against laws and actions when they don't suit them (remember when these very same people referred to the Confederacy as traitors for doing the same thing?) but further emboldened by factions of judges in place ready and willing to back them up protecting them with judicial activism.

When there is black rot within the core of an apple, you must cut it out or it just continues to spread.

Holding elected governmental office comes with it a duty to uphold law, not just the ones you like. If you don't like them, change them, meantime, the law is the law, and refusal to do otherwise must be subject to removal from office if not criminal prosecution, after all, they swore an oath to the law.

Funny how the same people who for four years lectured us that the fundamental tenet of democracy was the peaceful transition of power every four years suddenly come unglued and anarchistic when the election doesn't go their way.

Democrats' approval numbers are lower than Trump's.
