Donald Trump is getting tough on sanctuary cities — but he’s not alone in the fight. He has Attorney General Jeff Sessions by his side, and a smattering of Republican governors as well.
This week, Sessions vowed to speed up the deportation process and threatened steep budget cuts for governments that don’t comply.
The leaders of these so-called “sanctuary cities” were quick to respond. Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti called the threats “unconstitutional.” New York Mayor Bill de Blasio vowed to fight back, saying “we’ll see them in court.”
But not everyone is fighting the Trump administration’s law enforcement efforts. Texas Governor Greg Abbott is doing more than lending his support. He’s willing to sign legislation that will take the president’s threats even further. And he’ll need to, because one country in Texas is still refusing to comply with orders from either administration.

Do it!! Their job is to uphold the law.
Isn’t it called obstruction of justice? As a citizen, I don’t get to pick and choose which laws I want to obey. Therefore, so called sanctuary cities are picking which laws they want to enforce. So whichever person of authority is resisting, put them in jail, just as you would me if I were severely breaking a law!
Okay gov lets get started.
LET HER GO IF SHE DOESN’T FOLLOW THE RULES.
EXACTLY!!!….Treasonous which can be punishable by execution….enforcing Laws would have many in Jail now….some should face the gallows or firing squad their crimes certainly warrant….as you stated “If it were me…”)…
Wayne Green, I responded to the comment, “just get rid if her”. Yes she can be arrested, just like you. But to remove her from office it just be done by the people who elected her. Lynne Curtis, no its not treasonous. The Sherriff does not work for the Military or the Federal Government or the Governor of Texas l. This Sheriff was elected by the people of her county. That’s who she works for and that’s who she is accountable to. The Sherriff is the highest law enforcement officer that us not under the control of a politician. The Sherriff has more power in their county then anyone else.
We need to quit threatening people if you’re not doing your job you’re fired if you break the law you go to jail just do it or shut up about it
Can her
call in the Marshals
when they degrade the rule of law they degrade this country.
