Homan said they would go after the worst of the worst by grabbing them in jail, but then the Dems responded by denying access and releasing the WotW into general population where they took up residence and blended in with other illegal aliens who were/are here illegally but are not the WotW. Homan predicted accurately that these tactics by the democrats would force his hand as he can not turn a blind eye to any illegal aliens who are in proximity to the targeted WotW.
If Democrats actually really believed what they say about protecting the innocent illegal aliens, they would assist ICE rather than do their agitprop.
But they don't believe their own propaganda. It's all a lie.
"Sanctuary Cities" in my opinion, represents open insurrection against supremacy clause of the constitution. You can't have it both ways: on one hand, states refuse to enforce immigration law because they contend that it is a federal responsibility, and when the federal government dispatches federal agents to enforce immigration law, the states reject that too. 🤷♂️
If we go back in time to the 1960's, did any states reject federal enforcement of racial integration laws? Did National Guard troops get sent to states to enforce? I think they did...
But a DUI is also a misdemeanor but this bill was recently passed
The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill that mandates the deportation of non-citizens convicted of driving under the influence (DUI), regardless of the offense's severity. This legislation aims to strengthen immigration laws by making DUI convictions grounds for deportation and barring re-entry into the U.S.
Crossing the border illegally is generally c. onsidered a federal misdemeanor for a first offense, which can result in fines and imprisonment for up to six months. However, subsequent offenses can escalate to felonies, carrying harsher penalties, including longer prison sentences.
This is in response to both your comments. What I’m trying to point out is that if you have a misdemeanor, no one comes to your home, masked aggressively knocking and yelling , carrying guns and terrifying your family and your neighbors. I understand misdemeanors can lead to felonies and more serious crimes but the majority have not escalated into serious crimes and why do you need 50 ice agents for one person?
Also, the dog killer and the deranged president decide to send in 1000 more agents. How is that going to de-escalate what is going on? They’ve already had one tragedy happen in Minneapolis, are they hoping for more so that the deranged leader can send in the military like he would really like to do?
During his presidency, Barack Obama oversaw the deportation of more than 385,000 illegal immigrants each year from fiscal years 2009 through 2011, reaching a peak of 409,849 deportations in fiscal year 2012. Overall, his administration is often referred to as having the highest deportation numbers in recent U.S. history.
Obama still holds the record for the most deportations in Us History.
It is tragic that of because the woman's extreme ideology lead her to an organization that harassed and blocked ICE officers.. New video from a neighbor shows that Good and per partner were blowing whistlea for 3 minutes prior,they blocked traffic. Another new video show that her partner said floor it and she hit the officer after mot responding to his dema
Instructions to get out of the car. No one is above any laws to not adhere to any police or agent.
Ice was doing crowd control because Minnesota laws don't allow police to get involved in that.
On top of that Minnesota laws ,per Tim Walz are different than Califnlaws in respect to self defense for an officer..
The escelation also comes from the Democrats and Mainstream Media that have ahowed their intimidation, defiance and hatred for the Current administration. The leaders also threaten the Agents and their operations. Then the liberals fall in line as their obedient foot shoulders and show up at protest,harass agents and obstruct operations.
In regards to the legality of a misdemeanor,I'm not a judge to determine what sentence or action is taken based on the crime.
Minnesota has defrauded our country by billions of dollars so if more agents are needed to remove those who committed fraud and whose TPS status has been removed then the President is right to send more to Agents to MN to handle that process
GM, I am not sure your reply is about something I said, but if it was, I don't think I said the other illegals were not criminals, just that they are not the WotW (Worst of the Worst)
Every single illegal should be deported. We have laws and a mechanism to change those laws. When the Democrats don’t have the votes to change law in a way that favors their power they simply ignore that law. Open borders, sanctuary cities and sanctuary states, disrupting ICE operations are all unlawful. I hear that nobody is above the law when it suits Democrat ambition but the law does not apply if it hinders Democrat ambition.
It’s an absolute lie to say they aren’t targeting operations at criminals. If you are illegal and hanging out with rapists, you are putting yourself in jeopardy.
I have an idea…Stop sanctuary and work with the feds to get criminals transferred. Easy and no military style operations in the streets. Less fratricide. Safer environment for everyone.
Another great article Jim. When you bring up their “friends“ in the media, you are not kidding. I was extremely surprised and disappointed in our own local media when they had numerous clips of the incident in Minneapolis of the woman being shot by the ice agent, but they chose to use the one that conveniently left out the angle that clearly showed her driving her car right at the man who shot her. It’s very disappointing to see such blatant Disregard for the truth in our own town.
This ain't 2020, agitprop tactics are no longer tolerated by normies, and ICE is federal agents, not state, so the dems won't be able to selectively prosecute like they did with Chauvin and Trump. Their 15mins of fame is up. Minnesota government is under indictment for fraud...All eyes are on Iran and domestic economic policy now. Cries of fascism and Hitler grow quieter by the minute.
Not sure how to respond to this comment. Are you being racist or just dense? This administration has all kinds of fires to distract from what they’re actually doing. Epstein files need to be released.
LOL...no, sorry, not racist. I just thought you would know the old idiom the phrase "the pot calling the kettle black" It refers to a situation where someone criticizes another person or organization for a fault that they themselves also have, highlighting hypocrisy.
It originated from a 1620 translation of Don Quixote, where a frying pan accuses a kettle of being black, even though both are equally sooty from being placed over a fire.
As far as this administration setting fires to distract from "what they are actually doing"...I call that a feature, not a flaw; and it's probably difficult for you to comprehend (I have many liberal friends) but it's totally what I voted for. :)
And this thing in Minnesota, as well as the so called "Epstein Files", are distractions to keep you busy while Trump&Co take apart your "New World Order" brick by brick. Its brilliant and its working. Totally what I voted for.
Thanks Jim for exposing “Agitprop,” as it has been used for sometime throughout history. Deployment of “stormtroopers” consisting of nefarious groups, incited by totalitarian authorities is nothing new.
During reconstruction in the South, the racist remnants from the Confederacy used the Klu Klux Klan to instill fear and terror among emancipated blacks and others.
Nazi “Brown Shirts” perpetuated “Kristallnacht” in order to terrorize Jews during the early takeover of the Nazi Party.
Today, we see multiple groups being used to promote mayhem involving murder, intimidation, disruption, impedance, destruction of property and arson in order to meet the objectives of the Democratic Party. Groups such as BLM, Antifa, Free Palestine and Transtifa are being turned loose on the American public and law enforcement in order to bully the rest of us into submission and to promote their political agenda.
The outrageous irony is many of these groups are supported by public tax dollars by way of NGO’s in order to spread their terror!
We see now an uptick in Trangender involvement in murders, school and church shootings, beatings and assassinations. When will the LGBTQ community call these groups out?
Finally, here in SB and other areas, we see “grey warriors,” consisting of old tie-dyed, hippie burn outs, protesting immigration policies, insisting that we give their Medicare benefits to illegals!
In the end, we can expect no “good”outcomes as we have recently seen in Minneapolis.
Quote Mr. Buckley "The distorted half-truthful coverage "
The latest example is the City of SB rent control stupidity that will harm and destroy the economy of most small landlords.
Where is the truth about how dangerous Santa Barbara has become with their distortions? All you have to do is look and have a friend who is a retired Cop with a scanner to find the truth. It is getting worse instead of better.
Just curious: Do the Democrats have a housing plan that will reduce the cost of property in, say, Beverly Hills? Shouldn't everybody have access to affordable homes there too?? The only plan Democrats (socialists?) have used effectively to lower housing costs is to release criminals from prisons as soon as possible, thereby raising the crime rate, which reduces property values. Nice going!
I have a friend in China. The CCP solved that with confiscation. Then all of sudden about 20 years ago the CCP realized the Party could get bunches of money by issuing certificates of either occupancy or development. (not ownership)
The money flowed in and the corruption soon followed. But then again isn't that what has been happening in SB County? Their concept of criminals are those who oppose the CCP. (did I mention Hong Kong?)
Love to see the reaction if these same policies by the City were applied to the new house of Gov. Newsom
I am curious too, do the Republicans have a health plan that won’t cost an arm and a leg. It seems like they’ve had almost 10 years to work on one, and they only have a “concept”. They’ve been trying to kill the ACA and still haven’t come up with a replacement for it.
Julia: There are a number of "plans" out there being considered but none that have garnered the support one would need to pass legislation. I'm afraid people may be doomed to pay "an arm and a leg" for their Obama Care unless the Republicans can come up with something that makes sense!
Julia: Lots of "plans" have been mentioned; it's just that they are not mentioned on any of the "mainstream" media outlets. And, since no plan has garnered the amount of support necessary, they remain in the talking and thinking stage. Hope someone will come up with something everyone can agree on, but that's not likely in this climate.
You’re right, nothing coming out of DC is ever agreed-upon 100%. The plan trump mentions often is where people are given some sort of monetary help with their insurance where they get the money and they go out and get their own insurance which doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. I guess I won’t hold my breath until he finally come up with something.
I wonder if Agitprop provides life insurance policies for their agitators. Agitprop employs the unfortunate brainless, nothing-better-to-do unemployed to do their dirty work. Oddly, I discovered the FBI actually weaves hate crimes on innocent victims and uses their inflamed induced "ignorant" as their "volunteers" to strike the innocent. It's simple: the FBI gets into the heads of ignorant people, managing to create a hate crime to inflict on the innocent. Not only does Agitprop attack the Fed government, but the Fed government, such as the FBI bullies, in turn also attacks innocent people in a manner of trying to keep their hands clean by using others. It's a two-sided war. It's a nasty world out there. I'm very surprised people can't see what's happening, at least with regards to the Agitprop activities. Wondering if Trump will get us into a war by seeing how far he can go with his use of the U.S. military? I do. Seems he has discovered the "art of the deal" doesn't work and the "art of using strength" does <g>.
I am fascinated these days by the concept of religious ferver and Holy War. So even if the individual soldiers in the agitprop armies are mentally weak that does not counteract the FAITH that they have that martyrdom is a valid expression of their life purpose.
Thanks for teaching me a new word, “Agitprop.” Let me see if I can think of a good example: How about telling your subjects you are removing the worst of the worst and them having your secret police beat, murder, or just deport people you don’t like without a trial.
An estimated 40M persons unlawfully reside within our 50 states; an estimated 16-18M in CA. For some reason, the rules for entry and residency aren’t applicable at a huge cost to some individual property taxpayers, and workers losing a significant portion of their pay to taxes spent to support newcomers.
How can I/we in sanctuary CA and SB support ICE? Stop our cities and SB County from gifting tax money to NGOs and NPOs to aid those unlawfully here? Do we create a ‘Go Fund ICE’ page?
There will never be necessary enforcement here. It’s maddening to not have any recourse; to be burdened by waste, fraud, official corruption, and biased propaganda media coverage.
Thanks for teaching me a new word: Agitprop.
“Push law enforcement to the brink. Spit at them, taunt them, trip them, and before long, these days, you’ll get the reaction that hordes of iPhone camera operators will then record for fundraising and further participation purposes. And, of course, to move public opinion.”
The worst of the worst was the lie sold to the public. The public responded when it was not the worst of the worst.
David: The reason it isn't "the worst of the worst" is because so many of the worst are given sanctuary by really stupid people.
Homan said they would go after the worst of the worst by grabbing them in jail, but then the Dems responded by denying access and releasing the WotW into general population where they took up residence and blended in with other illegal aliens who were/are here illegally but are not the WotW. Homan predicted accurately that these tactics by the democrats would force his hand as he can not turn a blind eye to any illegal aliens who are in proximity to the targeted WotW.
If Democrats actually really believed what they say about protecting the innocent illegal aliens, they would assist ICE rather than do their agitprop.
But they don't believe their own propaganda. It's all a lie.
So here we are. C'est La vie
Sanctuary Cities also cause ICE to go into the community and not able to get them when released from Jail.
"Sanctuary Cities" in my opinion, represents open insurrection against supremacy clause of the constitution. You can't have it both ways: on one hand, states refuse to enforce immigration law because they contend that it is a federal responsibility, and when the federal government dispatches federal agents to enforce immigration law, the states reject that too. 🤷♂️

How would you know if they are criminals personally or not. Do you have Data that they aren't? And crossing the border illegally is a crime, BTW.
