Whoa: DHS Secretary Nielson Confirms That She's Asked Federal Prosecutors if Political Leaders of Sanctuary Cities Can Be Charged for Criminal Offenses

Big, dangerous step, but so is insurrection against the central government, as these criminals have done.

Either secede or comply with the national law, Insurrectionist Rebels.

Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen confirmed Tuesday that her department has asked federal prosecutors to see if they can lodge criminal charges against sanctuary cities that refuse to cooperate with federal deportation efforts.

"The Department of Justice is reviewing what avenues may be available," Ms. Nielsen told the Senate Judiciary Committee.

37 Seriously - what is this thing about Trump and his cabinet members wanting to actually enforce the law as written? I was advised by many people that it would all be a farce and that globalized betrayal would be the rule.

Second seriously - leaking that out may prevent it from actually happening. A few of the grandstanders may suddenly pause and think about how well this is going to play out when federal marshals place them under arrest.

For all of the tweets and bombast and 'yuge' and 'bigly' Trump is a serious man.

I think sanctuary from immigration law will eventually not be tolerated. Drug law is a different story all together there I think the feds will change eventually.

Again, this is the same issue was Printz v US.

When the Brady Act was first passed, federal law required local police to perform the background checks for gun purchases until the federal system was set up. A sheriff sued, saying he works for the state and is not a federal employee and has no obligation to do background checks for them.

And the supreme court agreed. He could not be commandeered to perform a federal firearms background check, even if he was theoretically "aiding and abetting" felons to purchase guns by not running background checks.

And again, this decision was written by Scalia.

108 That sounds a bit different than asking them to take pro-active action. Holding someone that they pick up on a state level offense who is wanted under a federal indictment until the feds can pick them does not seem to be the same as making them go search for someone.

Well, the states' argument will be that they have no state crime to hold people on and that the federal government cannot commandeer state resources by making them hold someone on a federal warrant.

Like, you mean they are going to pass a law to legalize it? Isn't that their job? And isn't enforcement of the laws as written the administration's job?

You know they would rather keep the law as is and pass laws to punish the administration from enforcing the laws, than to change the laws. They prefer rule of man over rule of law.

Well they are doing that. They're using ICE. The problem is that some guy will get picked up in San Francisco for driving on a suspended license or whatever. San Fran Police will run his name and/or fingerprints through NCIC and see no active warrants except an ICE detainer.

They then just ignore the detainer and don't tell ICE that they have the guy.

If ICE just happened to showed up, the police would not stop ICE from taking the guy in to custody, they just make no affirmative effort to let ICE know when they have an illegal in custody or know where an illegal is.

I know your position on this but I don't think they are looking to commandeer anything. They are simply asking them to cooperate with federal authorities.

And commandeer would seem to indicate that they aren't getting things in return. That's exactly what the states are whining about now that the feds are threatening to withhold federal funding those same states receive for law enforcement.

They can't have it both ways, they can't accept federal funds to perform their local law enforcement duties and then threaten to sue when the feds say they will withhold funds if the states won't cooperate with federal law.

At his hearing, the judge gave him bail and then had him leave out the back door so ICE wouldn't get him.

190 Big, dangerous step, but so is insurrection against the central government, as these criminals have done.

It's much more dangerous not to do it. Too many years these criminals have been allowed to openly flout the law and, not just law, but flout the Constitution and the very notion of the nation-state. All of these fvckers should have been jailed years ago. It's about time to do something to stop these traitors - and, yes, giving aid and comfort to an invasion is treason.

Meanwhile, a trial in California of an illegal alien cop killer was put on hold because the illegal admitted in court to killing the cops and said that he would do it again.

For some unknown reason the judge sent the jury out and then told them that they weren't allowed to base their verdict on the clear admission by the defendant or the fact that he was happy about killing the cops and said that he would do it again. WTFFF? Also, the illegal said that there was no reason for the trial and that he wanted to plead to the charge .. but the lowlife judge wouldn't allow that, either. If there is any reason or logic in the judge's insane actions I can't see it. This is why people hate lawyers and judges. Because they're retarded assholes who seem to think the\ir job is just to screw society over.

Not a problem. If they conceal the location of the alien after having been served a warrant for his arrest, they themselves can be charged as citizens and lawbreakers

193 I've said for a while if you could get some sort of legal mechanism that let's the IRS go after employers of illegal aliens (since everyone of them is committing either tax fraud and/or identity theft) that would probably solve 80% of the problem overnight.

A few high profile "busts" with a business owner going to prison and the magnet effect would largely stop.

197 I know your position on this but I don't think they are looking to commandeer anything. They are simply asking them to cooperate with federal authorities.

And commandeer would seem to indicate that they aren't getting things in return. That's exactly what the states are whining about now that the feds are threatening to withhold federal funding those same states receive for law enforcement.

They can't have it both ways, they can't accept federal funds to perform their local law enforcement duties and then threaten to sue when the feds say they will withhold funds if the states won't cooperate with federal law.
Posted by: JackStraw at January 17, 2018 03:00 PM (/tuJf)

I'm just saying that the court has repeatedly and recently ruled on this very issue, not that I necessarily agree with it.

There is also a long line of case law saying that federal funds can't be withheld to compel states to do things unless that funding can be closely tied to what they're trying to compel (Im blanking on the name of the case, but when Reagan tied highway funding to raising the drinking age to 21, the court said 'ehh, ok on this one, but we're going to rule on this verrrry narrowly')

They then just ignore the detainer and don't tell ICE that they have the guy.

If ICE just happened to showed up, the police would not stop ICE from taking the guy in to custody, they just make no affirmative effort to let ICE know when they have an illegal in custody or know where an illegal is.

Of course they CAN help and almost always do cooperate with federal officials and hold people based on both federal and out-of-state warrants.

The legal question is can the federal government compel cooperation if the state (or local) government does not want to cooperate?

Posted by: x at January 17, 2018 03:12 PM (nFwvY)

258 Maritime, there are indeed ways to directly target businesses using illegal labor.


The broader war to restore rule of law in immigration demands this. This is part of my *other* tick list of actions the administration should have launched immediately (they require no new legislation).


Targeted crackdown on large, known users of illegal labor. Sit-down with DHS; they get the ultimatum to go illegal-free by a date certain, help in getting there (we want minimal economic disruption on our path to restored rule of law), and the hammer held over them if they don't play along.


The (long overdue) DOJ request for immediate SCOTUS action to vacate a lower court's interference with DACA matters is interesting. Not sure it's encouraging.


The legal guild/glorified clerks that make up most of the profession dealing with the judiciary are utterly incapable of imagining there being checks and balances in that realm. The judiciary has expanded its power, shredded the constitution, even its own rules and ethics, and the whole society has submitted to their increasingly obnoxious and perverse tyranny.


Long past time to start popping this authoritarian bubble. DOJ should have included very clear threatening language in their request for expedited treatment: unless we get quick and total reversal of the lower court's lawless sabotage, we will not feel bound to obey the judiciary's capricious orders.


I'm pretty sure non-legal types generally have no idea how outrageous and unconstitutional the current situation is. Even though they abhor the outcomes. Courts have brazenly usurped executive and legislative power, and beclowned themselves with nonsensical Fuhrerbefehl-like directives based on nothing whatsoever.


Every bit of progress Trump makes against the national degradation can/will be vaporized in the blink of an eye if the constitution is not restored, and the judiciary reduced to its minor and subordinate role.

272 Its not that they're being comandeered to enforce federal law. Its that they are actively refusing to follow it. They are refusing to turn over criminals. You make it sound like what they want done is to have the local police perform ICE raids and that's not the case.
Posted by: buzzion at January 17, 2018 03:10 PM (lKs2v)

No, its whether or not local law enforcement has a legal duty to affirmative reach out to ICE and/or hold someone for ICE.

in Printz, just running a background check on someone trying to purchase a firearm was considered commandeering local resources. I guarantee that the court will find that so is holding someone in a state jail for 48 hours while they wait for ICE and/or setting up a system whereby they notify ICE of illegals in their jail will also be considered commandeering.

Running a background check takes a lot less time, money and and effort than feeding and housing someone, and requires about the same amount of effort as notifying ICE they have someone in their jail.

Again, I'm not saying I agree with this, just that this is what the law is and has been for a long time and that theres not a whole lot the federal govt can do to compel these cities to help them short of getting creative with withholding federal funding, which is its own legal minefield.

Actually, they make an affirmative effort NOT to let ICE know they have an illegal.

What about that case where cali went out and extradicted an illegal, just so that they could save him from ICE.

All of those politicians, judges and cops who participate in that shit need to be jailed or stripped of their citizenship and deported.

281 Remember that a San Francisco jury recently fund Kate Steinle's killer innocent for transparently political reasons. The argument that the killer's lawyer made in court -- that the gun went off by accident, and just happened to hit her dead-center in the back -- completely contradicted the killers earlier lie, that he was merely "shooting at sea lions." And yet the jury ate it up and let the guy go with zero punishment, even though they knew it was all a lie.

That's is the attitude the Feds have to deal with around here. Local moonbats would rather purposely let psychotic murderers walk the streets among them than cave in to even one conservative policy position.

I just picked Printz since it was a recent decision, there are dozens of other decisions on the same topic going back centuries. Steven's dissent in that case is basically the argument people are making right now -- that the federal government can force cooperation from local law enforcement if they need help in implementing federal law.

That's a dissent though, and is not law.

And thank god its not, because do we really want our local police to be agents of the federal government?

With the American public's distributed capacity to keep things straight as low as it is, I don't have a whole lot of faith that this would turn out in the positive.

and
b) I don't read that as requiring someone to affirmatively turn every illegal they ever meet in their life in to federal authorities or face a felony, and if that IS what the law says, that will also most likely be found unconstitutional.

367 Conditions on appropriations, in the appropriations legislation itself, subject to certifications by various executive branch agencies, is not a legal minefield at all. Executive discretionary acts (such as the attempt to withhold law enforcement grants) is entirely different.


This is why Trump should have included this in current appopriations - threatened a veto if it's not in there. Oh, but you say, this will trigger a fight in Congress. Exactly the point. Politics is desperately needed in politics, again. Sanctuary lawlessness is very unpopular, everywhere. Make the vile retards in Congress run on this, fight for this, label themselves with this. That's how you win a fight (not always immediately, but over election cycles).


Deep blue/deep stupid cities like SF won't like it, but they're a tiny minority in terms of public opinion on "sanctuary" lawlessness.

ianal, but actively "hiding" illegals that committed more crimes while here, is different than commandeering their services.

Judges that change sentencing for illegals so they aren't deported are actively aiding the criminal in evasion, not giving equal justice ... imo.

451 The issue in Printz was about whether or not the federal government can "commandeer" state resources.

Same issue here -- can the feds require the states to hold someone on a federal warrant?

The answer has to be no. Otherwise we do not live in a federal system with dual (state and federal) sovereignty.

Posted by: Harry Paratestes at January 17, 2018 02:53 PM (F5+ro)


========

Question - this issue of sanctuary cities seems to involve a slightly different context than what you are talking about.

You seem to be referencing cases involving domestic crime and law enforcement.

What if a state knowingly used its powers to, say, let in foreign spies or saboteurs and release them without notifying the Federal government? It seems they have a positive duty in that case to proactively notify the government.

It doesn't seem in such a case "state sovereignty" comes into play.

Someone here illegally is violating our national boundary, and all others, whether they be ordinary citizens, state political officials or state law enforcement officials have a duty to make such a violator known.

You seem to think this duty somehow is cancelled by overlapping domains between state and federal. But here there are no overlapping domains. Just like a state cannot declare war on another country (that is purely in the Federal domain), it does not have the right to knowingly aid and abet people who are here illegally, even in a passive way by simply releasing them and not notifying the Feds.

562 52 And while they are at it, Trump should get the DEA to raid Dem politicians in states that have legalized weed. SWAT raids, even.

And now it's not about weed, which is clearly what you said it was about. Now it's about jailing political opponents.

Do go on.

Not political opponents. We is still illegal at the federal level. Follow fed law or go to jail.

Or publish a list of federal laws that EVERYONE gets to break with impunity.

563 >>I tend to learn towards the idea that it's like 1996 where Greenspan warned of "irrational exuberance" and the market didn't really correct until 2001.

But that was the dotcom boom and bust. I was raising money from equity funds during that time and it was madness. 25 year old venture capitalists fresh out of B school only wanting to talk about page clicks and "sticky eyeballs" instead of boring things like earning and profits.

The fundamentals of this market are different. It will correct at some point but I don't think it is anytime soon and I'd be shocked, and much poorer, if it was anywhere near as deep.

564 I'm just afraid it will "correct" in October 2018 or October 2020.

Actually you were closer on your first post. The $350 billion is "contribution to the US economy through new jobs, second headquarters, and a series of investments". I think they're playing a loose with terminology.

Still, very good news.

Yaaaay I'm glad you and your family loved the Kalua pork recipe!! It's one of my faves and it's so easy. Bought and read through the Deplorable Cookbook, the Horde is awesome. Now the holidays are over I plan to make a bunch of them!!

569 As much as I love the idea of mayors getting locked up for "sanctuary"
type legislation they passed or decreed, that's not going to happen.
It's going to look too "kangaroo court"



NO, it doesn't. What it looks like is Federal Law actually being enforced. These assholes need to be deeply afraid of violating the law. That is the only way for that to occur.

"Either secede or comply with the national law, Insurrectionist Rebels."

I believe the term you're looking for is "rebel scum".

574 The answer has to be no. Otherwise we do not live in a federal system with dual (state and federal) sovereignty.

I think you are being deliberately obtuse. That is not the issue. The issue is can California etc. declare themselves to be sanctuary states in defiance of Federal Law. And that is an open/shut, slam dunk, NO they can't. Doing what they are doing is a violation of Federal Law. Arrest the perps, give them a first class fair trial, and send them to prison because they are guilty. Do this, or you have a state of Anarchy because criminal violating the law are just criminals - governments ignoring and violating the law is the definition of Anarchy.

576 Let's see if Sessions charges them under 1324. Force them to defend themselves. Wage lawfare on them for once. I'd love to see scum like Brown, Cuomo, Schniederman, DeBolshevik, and the rest frog marched to federal court. And have to go bankrupt proving their innocence.
There has to be a price for lawlessness, one way or the other.

577 That EO concerning human trafficking is going to be used against the "Sanctuary" cities and states.

I wish they charged Spitzer with human trafficking when he was caught taking his favorite hooker across state lines.

578 less talking, more law enforcing.

there is absolutely no exemption in 8 USC 1324 for being a pompous liberal windbagr OR for being a treasonous democong hack OR for a backstabbing, rent-seeking gope quisling.

lock them ALL up

582 I'm so old i can remember way back in twenty ought fourteen when states wanted to have a say in immigration enforcement but the federal government and the news media were absolutely adamant that immigration was solely the responsibility of the US government...it was even in the Constitution they said...states rights don't come into play here they said
