Every city has what they need, but they would need more if they take over immigration enforcement, and guarding jails housing illegals awaiting deportation.

Maybe the shuttling of illegals to detention centers could be farmed out to contractors so that they wouldn't be burdened with that task.

Exactly what he said. Take away their money.

Then he can close down all federal government agencies in their cities and move those offices to the burbs. Then, the States with Republican governors can follow with state agencies. Move them to the burbs. Do you think the mayor's poor black constituencies will be mad? Yes. They aren't illegal criminals. The Governor and the President will tell them what's going on. They just want the illegal criminals. They will take it out on their mayors. The lefty newspapers will side with the mayors. Do you think the angry people read their rags?

seems in the 1970's the Federal Govt threatened to take away funding for states that didn't lower their speed limits.

The states complied.

Threaten to take away funding and sanctuary cities will fold like an accordion.

They shouldn't be angry if they're fine with it. You should see how these folks are getting angry at techies changing the dynamics of the Bay area. Almost ironic.

More peace and love from the leftists ..

I posted a thread on this a week ago. Have they finally found the perpetrator? Also, has there been another alternative considered? Has there been another counter-argument from these activists that doesn't include "forcing the poor out"? (which is rare btw)

Do it for the babies Now that we see your true agenda Trump hater. Obviously you will belittle any suggestion to fix the problem because, well, you know it's TRUMP.
I don't hate Trump, I don't hate anyone I just enjoy pointing out the reality of how Trump supporters got punk'd. He can't do one tenth of what he promised you guys and I'm having great fun pointing that out. He isn't going to take over sanctuary cities, post ICE agents outside every jail, divert money from the Rural lunch program to hire ICE agents, stop people who are not accused of a crime and make them prove their citizenship and I doubt if he even cares about those issues, in 2011 he was in favor of amnesty for some illegals. Those were just red meat issues that he very cleverly realized could buy him an election. You bought it, you own it, I just don't think you realize exactly what you bought and I am not sure Trump even knows. so I'm just going to sit here and watch how it plays out.

Good for you but it really does appear to be mere butt hurt. We'll have this same conversation when they appoint a conservative to replace Scalia.

The rest don't rank anywhere near that and that is the number one reason I voted for him. If nothing else changes, fine. Just lock up the Constitution for the next 25 years.

We had the choice between more of the same and the unknown. I'd have voted for a rock if the alternative was Hillary.

He can over turn every one of Barack Obama's executive orders.

One of Barack HUSSEIN Obama's executive orders was the ICE back down on deportation.
