#1 - I'm not an "open border leftist", as is plainly obvious based on my proposed measures to reduce illegal immigration earlier in this very thread. Nice straw man, though. Keep swinging.
#2 - I've never called anyone a Nazi other than, well, Nazis.
Care to explain why you feel Governors should be arrested when they have broken no laws now?
yes, there is no requirement for state or local from working with ICE, but there is no requirement for local and state from not working with ICE either until CA governor made it illegal.
California made it illegal for California police agencies from cooperating with ICE. It should be up to the discretion of the police agency to cooperate with ICE, not the state.
I was a former CA cop before jumping over to CBP. My former CA agency always had join operations with other federal agencies (DEA, FBI, USSS, and yes even ICE)
No new wall mileage has been built, but we all know that right? Just replacement. Anyway, people now cross by claiming asylum and Trump's efforts have done nothing but encourage more of that - with families - and more immigration that we have seen since Bush II who was the hands down winner of open borders. Obama did a much better job - quietly.

How did DT encourages people to cross over? With his anti immigration rhetoric and place them in camps?
Didn't claim that it's a legal requirement at all. Local LE should be cooperating with ICE, as they normally would with any other fed agency. It's absolutely ludicrous that they made laws to intentionally block them, only to protect illegals.
This whole discussion started with Du Ma advocating for jailing Governors of "sanctuary states". Hence the question about what crime they might be charged with.
States make bad/stupid laws all the time. CA more than most, IMO. I don't live in CA so it's none of my business.

Neat.
What crime do you suppose Governors of "sanctuary states" should be charged with. Please cite the legislation for it.

Has to be specific. Sanctuary laws never are. Neither the politician nor the police officer has certain knowledge of the arrestees immigration status. And they are not compelled to ask.

Ah, you left Congress passing a new law out of your earlier posts. You simply said "throw 'em in jail".
Sure, if Congress passes that law, I'm all for it being enforced. It's never going to happen, though.
