The mayor of Houston on Friday said the city would limit cooperation with federal immigration authorities, heralding “a new model” of immigration enforcement after Democrats won power in Texas for the first time in decades.
Houston’s mayor, John Whitmire, said the city would go after immigrants “that pose a danger, not those that are going about their family business, work and education”.
that’s what the reps said in the beginning too.
How about blue states just arrest republicans
That’s infuriating. Don’t just be passive. Be active. Arrest the criminals.
This is how you start a civil war.
Sounds better than living in a fascist police state where gangs snatch people of racial minorities off the street and thrown them into concentration camps.
The fucking president of the police union in Houston was crying on t.v., after this, about how “Politics need to stay out of law enforcement!”
What a hypocrite. That fucking piece of shit needs to go too.
Politics is literally law.
He probably thinks he is enforcing the will of God.
Down ballot races matter! Elections have consequences!
Limit?
End.
It’s Texas. Baby steps.
Don’t let perfect to be the enemy of good
Plus there may be a bare minimum required by federal law/state law. The state laws may very well change in a year or so
State, local, city, county laws, all play into the disaster of personal politics.
People who judge you will always oversimplify everything without delving into the complicated morass of the reality of the matter
It starts. May all the cities banish ICE
That’s not what was said. This says they’ll not cooperate. As in, they’ll let them harass and torture their citizens and do nothing about it
Edit: it’s even worse. It says they’ll still continue to assist ICE in some cases
Great but the message needs to be better. Frame it as stopping wasteful spending. All those anti-woke assholes are still going to vote in two years and you need to curate the message they hear.
That’s impossible. The message they’ll hear is that Huston police assisted MS13 to murder precious white babies and blocked ICE heroes from saving the babies by trapping them in underground caverns like the NYPD in Dark Knight Rises.
YES.
Damn, that’s fucked up
