Yesterday, Pam Bondi was sworn in as Attorney General of the United States. She immediately went to work for President Trump and the American people who voted for him.
The Blaze reports that hours after taking her role, AG Bondi directed the Department of Justice to halt federal funding to sanctuary cities. Fox News reports: “Bondi also has directed the DOJ to identify and evaluate all funding agreements with nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) that provide support to illegal aliens. She is also directing litigating components of the Justice Department to investigate instances of jurisdictions that are impeding law enforcement, and directing they be prosecuted, when necessary.”
Pay attention, democrats. You are now on notice.
Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker
Gov. Pritzker has vowed to “stand in the way’’ of certain Trump deportation policies, including those targeting “law-abiding’’ illegal migrants. From NY Post:
“When we’re talking about violent criminals who’ve been convicted and who are undocumented, we don’t want them in our state,” Pritzker, 60, told CNN’s “State of the Union.” “We want them out of the country.
“We hope they do get deported,” he said, referring to Trump’s policy of targeting illegal migrant criminals first under his mass deportation plan.
But “we also have a law in the books in Illinois that says that our local law enforcement will stand up for those law-abiding undocumented people in our state,” he said.
Hey, fat boy: If people are in the country illegally they are not “law-abiding.”
Democrat governor Tina Kotek
Oregon’s governor, Tina Kotek, has also declared she will fight our federal immigration laws. From WJAC:
“Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek said in a video posted Sunday she will uphold state law prohibiting government officials and police from helping federal authorities with enforcing immigration laws.
“I will uphold Oregon’s sanctuary promise laws – laws that were passed with almost unanimous bipartisan support in the 1980s,” she said in the message shared on social media platform X.
Oregon passed a law in 1987 barring police from taking into custody people who aren’t U.S. citizens if their only offense is being in the U.S. illegally. Currently, the state prohibits public agencies from collaborating with the federal government to enforce immigration laws.”
Plenty of other democrat governors plan to fight President Trump on this issue. Be prepared, governors, for your state’s cities to quickly lose access to federal tax-payer dollars.
You may believe that your “resistance” is going to win. But make no mistake: There’s a new and hardened President Trump in office. One that is ready to “fight, fight, fight!”
