Trump has no right to withdraw federal funds from states who choose to have sanctuary cities. If he is going to defund the states, we need to defund the agencies he has Weaponized against our people The only branch of government with any hope of stopping the invasion of ICE into cities, the detention camps people are jailed in, the lawless thugs on our streets is Congress—and the only mechanism is the upcoming continuing resolution funding bill. You must exercise this leverage to the fullest extent possible! This isn’t about YOUR reelection, it’s about OUR country! Democratic and Republican Senators can refuse to confirm any nominee for the DOJ or DHS unless and until ICE’s budget is drastically cut, its senior officers are fired, and its agents begin to follow the Constitution, wear body cameras, remove their masks, and wear badges and ID numbers plainly visible to the public. Act NOW - this has to stop.
