@QuixoticSoul If they are not enforcing federal law aren't they ignoring federal law? Even if cities don't have to enforce federal law doesn't give them the right to warn illegals that the feds are coming.

@GunSmoke9 What I meant was that states cannot violate federal law, or pass laws to that effect, because they will get sued in federal court. Just as if you violate federal law, you will be arrested by the FBI and charged in federal court.
But states do not have to do FBI, NSA, etc's jobs for them either, and the exact parameters of agency cooperation are set by the state officials. Sometimes the states meddling in federal matters is even explicitly disallowed, or discouraged as part of the general preemption doctrine.
Tbh I think you'd have a devil of a time pinning obstruction of justice charges on the mayor, especially since [i]being[/i] in the US illegally is a civil violation, not criminal - and her information came from unofficial sources. It would be fairly unprecedented.
Anyway we'll see.

It will, patience my good man. It will wind it's way through the courts because the left insists on wasting taxpayer money on things that they know are unconstitutional. the 9th circuit will side with them, wrongly as usual, and like 80% of the time will be overturned. Then the left will have to get sneaky about warning their future voters.

@WoodyAq That could be problematic. Then again, immigration in this country is intentionally complicated.

@LadyBronte Not really. See above.

I do not believe in the concept sanctuary cities. Period.

@LadyBronte Hmmm. They are still constitutional, though ...

It might come to the point where Accadia, the Northeast, Texas, and Minnesota tell the rest of the country to take a hike. We don't want to pay to support you loosers anymore.
