1/29/26: Sanctuary states/cities.
State/local government has no immigration enforcement authority. They are required to provide some assistance to Federal agencies by law or grants. Providing more cooperation than required exceeds the authority and responsibility of State and local administrative entities. Red States are likely guilty of exceeding their authority.
Sanctuary is defined as βprotection or a safe placeβ. Is there a safe place in the USA for illegal immigrants?
Trump campaigned on deporting criminal illegal aliens. No problem with that. Trumpβs agency appointees are trying to βmake their numbersβ without regarding immigrantβs criminality. Canpaign promises are made to break.
Conservative Reuters states Soros is not working to destroy the USA or funding paid protestors. Reuters states there are many unfounded conspiracy theories about Soros. My favorite: Jewish Soros was a Nazi.
βPower and control is whatβ Trump and associates βare striving for.β
