The Justice Department launched a legal assault against the lawless sanctuary jurisdictions across the country on Monday.
CRIMINAL CHARGES COMING?
The DOJ filed new civil lawsuits asking judges to overturn several policies, Fox News reported. The agency also warned state and city officials they could soon face criminal charges of harboring illegal immigrants if they don’t rescind their policies.
One lawsuit targets California which basically banned ICE detention facilities in the future. Another suit goes after King County, Washington where ICE is banned from flying detainees in or out of Boeing Field in Seattle — it disrupts deportation operations. Another lawsuit against New Jersey asks a court to overturn a state policy limiting cooperation with Homeland Security.
“When we are talking about sanctuary cities, we are talking about policies that are designed to allow criminal aliens to escape,” Attorney General William P. Barr said in announcing the moves in a speech to the National Sheriff’s Association. “Their express purpose is to shelter aliens whom local law enforcement has already arrested for other crimes. This is neither lawful nor sensible.”
Mr. Barr also warned sanctuaries that he’s ordered his department to review the law to see what else can be done.
“This includes assessing whether jurisdictions are complying with our criminal laws, in particular the criminal statute that prohibits the harboring or shielding of aliens in the United States,” he said.
At this point, its all election year posturing.
Been waiting three years for the swamp to be drained.
It can’t be drained when swamp creatures are constantly in charge over at the DOJ/AG.
Start with negating their illegal driver’s licenses that 17 state’s have been giving out. Which in New York could automatically give them voting rights.
I’m starting to notice that the WH is gearing up (finally) to oppose the Dems on every corner. Sanctuary lawsuits, Deep State removals, Investigations ON THE DEMS, are just a few items that have been brought out since the President’s (2nd) acquittal. Now it’s full steam ahead and they won’t know what hit them. If they are in disarray now, before the full impact of the Donald hits them in coming months, I can’t wait to see their status when they have to answer to the nation for all their dastardly deeds.
Bush Crime Family consigliere Billy-boy Barr pulling a Session’s “re-direction/distraction” from what should be taking precedence: Hildabeast/Biden grifting/pay-for-play, CRIMINAL State interference/spying on Trump & Co, FBI FISA abuse, just mention a few of the gov-agent’s on-going corrupt and seditious activities.
Big deal, lawsuits. Officials have defied US law in severe ways. All Barr offers is empty threats. This is PR for his upcoming no indictments on the coup.
Victims of “protected” illegal aliens should have the absolute right to sue their protectors…by the way this should be extended to victims of “paroled” criminals vis a vis the parole board…
“The supremacy clause of the constitution. Use it. Take it to the SCOTUS, end this crap once and for all.
Is this really transpiring?! Really?! The deportation of ILLEGAL ALIENS should be occurring every day until these criminals are out of the U.S. of A. I have no empathy for these people, for they are showing great disrespect to the citizens and legal residents of the U.S. of A., besides the drain on the community’s resources.
Fix the root of the problems cooked DOJ and FBI enforcement.
Can’t fly out of Boeing field? It would probably be a 737 so that isn’t all bad. Seattle got scratched off the bucket list long ago along with Portland.
Now Wyoming, Idaho, Montana are added. Commierado is off the list except for Colorado Springs where they mock Denver and Boulder. I call Pikes Peak God’s Driveway.
Maybe Barr is the last boy scout, only time will tell. If Trump had picked the right people from the start just think how far along he would be. Sessions was not the right choice.
What nobody realizes , is that Barr is as deep state as the rest of them .
BARR , is the lawyer who got Lon Horuchi off , scott free .
For those not in the know ,
Lon Horuchi is the Govt. sniper who MURDERED Randy Weavers wife
and infant child , IN COLD BLOOD !
And BARR got him off .
Don’t tell me that Barr is anything other than a POS !
And He isn’t going to do ANYTHING !
If Trump had picked the right people from the start……they would’ve never been confirmed by the swamp.
That’s why Ratcliffe isn’t the head of the DNI.
Hard to get the right people confirmed.
Just ask Ratcliffe.
Every airplane in Boeing’s fleet can, and does, fly into and out of Boeing Field. Don’t let fact confuse your!
Will believe when it happens, tired of threats.
Mr. Richmond,
Agree with you. Time to walk the walk and cease with talk to talk. Arrest the sanctuary mayors and governors.
Same here. Republicans don’t have the killer instinct. Hate to say – and hope I’m wrong – but I think this is all just for show.
