Finally!!! Lawfare is about to come to Newsom, LA Mayor Breed, the San Diego, Los Angeles and San Fran Board of Supervisors. If they refuse to abide by Federal immigration law and continue to protect illegal aliens, then will be sued—both as public officials and privately—since public officials are not allowed to violate the law, tax dollars will not cover these private sector lawsuits.
On top of this, Tom Homan will try to put these people in jail for criminal violation of Federal law—and as co-conspirators for EVERY crime committed by an illegal alien.
The Left created lawfare—and now they will become the victims of their hate of the Rule of Law and refusal to obey their oath of office.
Legal Group Puts Sanctuary Jurisdictions on Notice Ahead of Trump’s Mass Deportation Operation

America First Legal is putting sanctuary jurisdictions on notice ahead of the mass deportation operation President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to carry out, beginning on Day One of his administration.
he conservative legal group said it sent letters to 249 elected officials in sanctuary jurisdictions warning them about the consequences of interfering with federal enforcement of immigration laws.
AFL’s letters to elected officials in sanctuary jurisdictions warn:
– The federal government has ultimate authority over immigration.
– Federal law prohibits interfering with Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and state or local officials’ communications on immigration status.
– To conceal, harbor, or shield aliens is a federal crime.
– Sanctuary jurisdiction policies can lead to criminal liability.
– Sanctuary jurisdiction policies can lead to personal financial liability.
“We have identified your jurisdiction as a sanctuary jurisdiction that is violating federal law,” the letter reads. “Such lawlessness subjects you and your subordinates to significant risk of criminal and civil liability. Accordingly, we are sending this letter to put you on notice of this risk and insist that you comply with our nation’s laws.”
Additionally, AFL is launching a “Sanctuary Strongholds” website that identifies these jurisdictions across the country and lists the contact information for elected officials who violate federal law.

The group also filed a petition with the Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) “to increase transparency into crimes committed by illegal aliens against women and children.”
And investigative requests were filed with “17 key states and cities across the U.S. to expose the individuals and organizations actively undermining federal immigration enforcement and the rule of law.”
“The left-wing politicians who create and run them, and those who support them, put our citizens at risk, undermine our Constitution, and dangerously erode the rule of law,” America First Legal’s Senior Vice President Reed D. Rubenstein said of sanctuary jurisdictions, reports Fox News. “America First Legal will continue working tirelessly to protect our immigration laws and support the brave men and women who enforce them. Today’s actions are but a first step in our fight against sanctuary lawlessness.”
