You’re going to love this! A Trump-appointed US Attorney has figured out a workaround that completely derails sanctuary city policies that protect illegal aliens from deportation. The plan ensures that illegal aliens can no longer slip out of custody after they’ve been arrested for a crime. US Attorney Bill Assayli has already used the idea to successfully deport dozens of illegal aliens from Los Angeles, who would have otherwise slipped away to commit more crimes.
The term “Sanctuary City” or “Sanctuary State” is truly dishonest. It’s vulgar and repugnant. The term doesn’t just mean that state, county, and city police are friendly to illegal aliens and let them go about their day. These policies proactively force police to prevent ICE from arresting and deporting repulsive foreign criminals.
Here’s an example. Let’s say an illegal alien snatches your kittycat off your front porch and rapes it to death.
(Bet you didn’t see that coming! This is actually a true story. It happened in Queens, NY, a few months ago.)
Police arrest the kittycat molester. ICE realizes that he’s an illegal alien, so they bring a detainer request to the cops. The detainer is a paperwork request that says, when the illegal alien makes bail and is released from custody, would you pretty-please hand him over to ICE agents, so we can deport the psychopath?
Sanctuary City policies forbid police from complying with ICE detainers. The detainers don’t have the force of law behind them. Any sheriff’s deputy, state trooper, or local police officer who complies with an ICE detainer will get fired.
That’s how disgusting Sanctuary City policies are. It’s why the average illegal alien has already been arrested at least four times before they eventually end up in ICE custody.
It’s not just the kittycats that are endangered by “sanctuary” policies, either. These policies get Americans killed.
Jose Ines Garcia Zarate was a dangerous, mentally ill migrant who had previously been deported five times when he was arrested in San Francisco in 2015. The city refused to honor an ICE detainer on Zarate. They let him out of jail.
Zarate then got his hands on a gun and randomly shot 25-year-old Kate Steinle to death on the pier. He just shot her in the back, at random, for no discernible reason. Kate Steinle, and dozens of other Americans, would still be alive if not for these disgusting Sanctuary City policies.
Some of the county sheriffs in California are especially obnoxious. They’ll tear up an ICE detainer, laugh at the agents, and throw the paper in the trash.
They’re not laughing now.
US Attorney Assayli has been personally dropping off a new form of paperwork to these sheriffs.
“What are these?!” the obnoxious sanctuary sheriffs ask.
“It’s a warrant,” answers Assayli.
Assayli has assembled a new task force in the Central District of California. We don’t know for certain, but the task force is likely using some sort of AI-assisted tools to do their job. They scan all the fingerprint databases in LA County, in real-time, 24-7.
Many illegal aliens have been previously deported, so they’re already in the system. When they get re-arrested they get fingerprinted. But now, when their fingerprints pop up, Assayli takes the info to a judge and instantly gets a federal warrant to arrest them for illegal re-entry.
An ICE detainer doesn’t have any legal standing behind it. It’s just a request and the cops are required to ignore those requests under California state law. But the police cannot ignore a federal warrant, signed by a judge, for the illegal alien’s arrest. They have to turn them over to ICE for deportation.
Some sheriffs in California are thrilled by the new policy. They’ve been waiting for years for someone to come up with an idea like this. It’s long overdue.
All of Joe Biden’s US Attorneys are now gone. They got fired on day one and replaced by Trump appointees, including Assayli. The Trump administration likes Assayli’s idea so much that it’s now going to be expanded to every Sanctuary City in the country.
The kittycat molesters now have nowhere to run—and nowhere to hide.
