Acting ICE Director Thomas D. Homan had some harsh words for California, the new sanctuary state. First, he tells that he is moving a greater number of enforcement officers into California to do the job that California refuses to do and secondly to warn them that he is looking into 8 USC 1324 to see if applies to California, because if it does, officials in the Golden State could be thrown into prison for shielding illegal aliens.
Pay close attention to (iii)
(a)Criminal penalties
“There’s no sanctuary from federal law enforcement, as a matter of fact, we’re in the process now, I’m going to significantly increase our enforcement presence in California. We’re already doing it. We’re going to detail additional enforcement assets to California.”
“California better hold on tight – they’re about to see a lot more special agents. A lot more deportation orders in the state of California.”
“If the politicians in California don’t want to protect their communities, then ICE will.”
Kick back and relax, it could get interesting.
