Obama's justice department sued cities and states for trying to enforce immigration laws. Maybe Trump's DOJ will sue sanctuary cities for obstructing immigration enforcement?

It would not be the first time a Governor was removed for not up holding Federal Law.

The most recent impeachment of a state governor occurred on January 14, 2009, when the Illinois House of Representatives voted 117-1 to impeach Rod Blagojevich on corruption charges; he was subsequently removed from office and barred from holding future office by the Illinois Senate on January 29.

Exactly! The Government knew what was going on at the time before it became a big mess and now Trump came in to push the agenda to win the Republican party. His recent interview was to deport back all illegals that have committed acts of crime here in the U.S. I'm with that. In all honesty I wish we didn't have an illegal problem, but it stands today that we have a big one in which needs to be addressed. I'm all for the illegals wanting to heading back across, but it's the illegals that have established families here in America that's going to divide weather we should let them stay or go.

I live in Texas and see the economic devastation first hand. Violent crimes, pollution, drugs, overcrowding, ect. Which not only that it cost each Texas tax payers including myself $1,197. All that money could have went to better use like improving education, roads, and infrastructure.

San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee is undaunted. "Being a sanctuary city is in our DNA," Lee said in a tweet. "San Francisco will never be anything other than a sanctuary city."

Sanctuary Cities Insist They'll Stand Strong

“All studies from sociologists and criminologists show that non-citizen immigrants commit fewer crimes than their peers."
Flawed study, anyone here illegally has committed a crime.

Even those illegals married to US citizens or to even legal aliens, they still need to go. Period.

Since when is enforcing our immigration laws akin to Nazism? America is better than that, huh?


Trump stating that he will deport "convicted" criminals first does not mean he won't take steps to see that the rest leave voluntarily or deported as they are discovered. I don't get where you think that means they will get to stay. Wishful thinking, perhaps?

Oh, Trust me. If Trump does what he says, a lot of them will be gone.

And if the Democrats in the Senate try to block him on everything he wants to do, there's going to be another ass-kicking in 2018. Mark it down. People are sick and tired of all the Democrats' bullcrap. And Hillary only got the popular vote because of California and NYC, so you can't say people ain't sick and tired of them, because they are.
