There are hundreds of sanctuary cities here in the US and they better think long and hard about it. Trump is going to cut off federal funding to cities, states and universities that declare themselves safe zones for illegal aliens. Now, many governors and state legislatures are following suit. Given the choice of following the rule of law and placating liberals and illegal aliens, I would hope that politicians and law enforcement would choose the law. In a number of these states, such as Texas for instance, they are going even further to hold sheriffs, politicians, etc. accountable under the law. If they are convicted of breaking the law, they are subject to being removed from office. Its a deadly serious game and Trump will win at this.
In Ohio, a proposal backed by state Treasurer Josh Mandel (R) who is challenging Sen. Sherrod Brown (D) in 2018 (a devout Marxist) would charge officials with a fourth-degree felony, punishable by up to 18 months in prison, if an undocumented immigrant is charged with a crime. Texas leads the pack here and this last week they passed a measure to block state funding to their sanctuary cities. The measure now moves to the state House of Representatives and if passed would go before Gov. Greg Abbott for approval. He will definitely sign it.
If these cities, states and universities insist on holding their ground and breaking the law, the funding they lose from the federal government and from their respective states, could very well bankrupt them. Schools will have to close and suddenly whole cities and states will be in a world of hurt even more than they are now. None of this comes as a surprise, but it is definitely a wake-up call.
The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable. ~ H. L. Mencken
