The court stopped DAPA. USCIS is still processing papers under the existing DACA policy.

Which has no legal basis.

As I read the tea leaves, deporting DACA dreamers won’t happen.

"His priority with respect to immigration is, first and foremost, making sure that people who are in the country who seek to do us harm" are removed, Spicer said.

With all due respect, my family is being harmed daily by the hordes of illegals who are unfairly competing with us for work in our industry. We can't underbid them, and have lost over a million dollars off our family table to them over the last decade or so.

I'm very much with the President in wanting to remove the most dangerous illegals immediately, but I want that followed up quickly with strong positive action to compel the rest to self deport.

Under the old “Single Audit” legislation for entities receiving more than $100,000 Federal Funds in a year, their financial statements must list all Federal Funds received and be foot noted.

If you get the audited financial report for each of the sanctuary cities it should give you the mix of all Fed Funds received from all sources.

CA will cave within 6 months. No way the employees Union allows their jobs to go unfunded.

I’m reading them the same way.
They are continually adding to that number daily, the USCIS is continuing to process applications under the existing illegal DACA policy.
Trump must stop at least the new applications even if they don’t rescind papers previously issued.

If we don’t deport DACA, how do we deport their parents, uncles, aunts, cousins, etc.?
Once we start making exceptions, we will end up deporting no one.

Equal protection under the law - as long as ALL sanctuary cities are targeted, not just blue state ones then there is no case for a suit.

Correct, Obama made it up out of thin air.
Trump needs to at the very least stop any new applications, even if they don’t rescind papers already issued.

I guess I’m still not with the program. Every time I see something that starts with White House: I cringe.

Guess I’ll have to get past that.

I am going to be a bit of a contrarian here. I think there is a political danger to doing this especially if the president is trying to woo the black vote. These mayors will try to blame anything that goes wrong in these citius on racist trump pulling funding.

I applaud these actions, but more than anything, I’d like to see the President focus on turning off the magnets of jobs and welfare benefits for illegals.

If he just does that, the vast majority of them will self deport with no one’s assistance.

At the same time, the President will have robbed the left of the spectacle of mass deportations.
