"For these sanctuary cities that knowingly shield and harbor an illegal alien in their jail and don't allow us access, that is, in my opinion, a violation of 8-USC-1324. That's an alien smuggling statute," he said. "I have asked the Department of Justice to look at this....That's certainly an angle we're looking at."
The statute Homan cited makes it an offense for any person "to conceal, harbor, or shield from detection, such alien in any place, including any building or any means of transportation."
BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!

I thought the “state’s rights” argument went away after George Wallace lost the schoolhouse door fight.

Enforce existing laws and prosecute people who violate them?
Is that allowed?

How exactly is it an ;outrageous threat’ when they are not complying with federal law? Hold them SOBs accountable for their outrageous political act of declaring a ‘sanctuary’ city!

I think the mayor is typically the chief executive of a city, rather than one of its law-makers, although I know there are exceptions (City of Virginia Beach comes to mind). Perhaps
the legislators in these cities should be the targets (including mayors where appropriate).

“Such a policy would dramatically raise the stakes for immigrant-friendly cities and states that have clashed with the administration.”
Illegal immigrant-friendly.
Fixed it.

The ACLU said Wednesday that Homan's "outrageous threat" If that's what the scumbags at the aclu think of it, then this would be a priori an outstanding policy implementation by the Administration !

I remember when that county clerk from Ky refused to issue gay marriage licenses a Federal judge threatened to hold her in contempt and have her arrested. The left didn’t have any problem wit that. Very analogous situation.

Fixed it better ;-)

The corrupt courts would side with the sanctuary cities, while condemning cities and states which pass laws to mitigate the illegal immigration problem as “federal purview.”

They did not say it was illegal or unconstitutional.
They said it was outrageous.

One of Carlson’s guests was talking about this last evening. IMO, send in the US Marshals and arrest the entire legislature of the state or municipality doing this.
I believe that Lincoln arrested part of the Maryland legislature to stop them from voting for secession along with some other officials.

That’s a nice reference, but they could just as well charge obstruction of justice or impeding a federal official.

It’s only logical. Lawbreakers should be arrested and prosecuted. That’s the way the system is supposed to work. New slogan: Make the System Work Again.

“The corrupt courts would side with the sanctuary cities”
Not even the ACL friggin’ U believes it is illegal or unconstitutional.
