President Trump et al in the Trump administration have a bad habit of "penalizing" rogue politicians, judges, etc. by cutting funding to the jurisdictions, and letting it go at that. This does not do a damn thing to penalize these politicians who are millionaires or billionaires, and feel no pain from the loss of the federal $$$$$$.
Instead of improving the situation (sanctuary cities, crime, infrastructure repairs, etc, all this does is make situations worse.
It winds up as defunding police, fire departments, some worthwhile social programs, and winds up creating MORE crime, rather than less.
After the racist murder of a white, Ukrainian refugee woman, by a black slasher, who was released back to the streets by a soft, Democrat judge, Tennessee Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., told Newsmax on Tuesday morning, that she has introduced a bill that would restrict federal funding to sanctuary cities and states that do not enforce cash bail. (which should have had a very high bail for a homeless guy who had had been arrested and released 14 previous times). His criminal history, dating back to 2014, includes armed robbery with a dangerous weapon.
Well, the intent might be good, but the result won't be. That judge probably lives in a very safe, community, in a nice house with lots of security, and rides around in a new car with bulletproof windows. The funding cutting won't bother that judge at all.
The ones who will suffer are lower income people riding on public transportation, like 23 yr old Iryna Zarutska, who just lost her life. There needs to be a toughing of bail rules nationwide, as Democrat politicians in blue cities. terrified of being called a "racist", are too inclined to go easy on dangerous criminals, especially if they're a minority race.
Sanctuary city mayors & governors (let's name names > Gavin Newsome, Karen Bass, JB Pritzker, Brandon Johnson. Michelle Wu, et al, need to be IN JAIL, for violation of US Code 8, Section 1324. When that happens, their replacements won't be so quick to go easy on illegal aliens and other criminals. Stop pussyfooting, and crack down! If President Trump & Pam Bondi won't do the job like it needs to be done, we need to replace them with people who will.
