Oakland mayor Libby Schaaf is a frequent critic of Donald Trump. She warned the city of a possible raid by ICE on Jan. 25.

On Tuesday night, just after completing a roundup of more than 150 suspected undocumented immigrants, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said it could have arrested more but for the actions of one person: Mayor Libby Schaaf of Oakland, Calif.

Schaaf learned of the Northern California ICE enforcement operation before it kicked off on Sunday and, in a controversial move, warned the immigrant community ahead of time.

On Saturday, saying she felt it was her moral and ethical duty, she stood in front of television cameras and announced that “multiple credible sources” had informed her that ICE would be making arrests across the Bay Area. She didn’t intend to panic the community, she said — only to protect it.

Like this mayor, the people in this country no longer have any idea which laws will be enforced and which won’t. This is a dangerous situation.

"Obstruction of justice. But Sessions won’t do anything. In fact, he hasn’t really done anything meaningful since taking AG gig. He’s just a puppet of the swamp."

Hey's kind of funny, in a way. Every time the Justice Dept. looks bad or there is a crisis, he has a press conference and announces that it will be handled with their "top priority". Here is a bunch, there are many more I am sure.

1) Today "School shootings a top priority for law enforcement: AG Jeff Sessions"

2) 2/16/18 "Top Priority’ — Sessions Orders ‘IMMEDIATE REVIEW’ Of FBI, While FL. Gov. Calls For Director Wray’s Resignation"

3) 6/9/17 "Jeff Sessions Declares Fight Against Elite Pedophiles A Top Priority"

4)10/23/17 "Sessions Designates MS-13 as 'Priority' for Law Enforcement"

5)4/20/17 "Arresting Julian Assange is a priority, says US attorney general Jeff Sessions"

6)11/18/16 "A former aide to Sessions said that, as attorney general, he will make national security and fighting terrorism a top priority." 7)5/9/17 "Mr. Sessions, (snip) came to office promising to make being tough on crime a top priority"

She is a Jerry Brown protege. I have heard her speak several times - huge ego, but very dumb.
