BREAKING NEWS From Los Angeles…
TRUMP Said HELL NO!!!
This is HUGE!
It seems like the day so many of us law-abiding American Citizens have been waiting for since
the 80's has now come.
It looks like President Trump, along with Attorney General Jeff Sessions, are making
good on their promise to make America and her citizens first again.
We are now getting reports that the Los Angeles Police Department has been denied $3 Million
in federal aid for "law enforcement" purposes.
Although there has been no official announcement as to why this funding has been denied it
likely has something to do with Los Angeles' lawless so-called "sanctuary city" status
on harboring illegal aliens.Via The Gateway Pundit:
This year, L.A. officials applied for more than $3 million in federal funding to help
bring the same program to Harvard Park, a South L.A. neighborhood scarred by violence.
The request was denied.
The U.S. Department of Justice hasn't offered the LAPD an explanation of why the department
didn't receive any of the $98 million in grants recently awarded to scores of law enforcement
agencies across the nation.
A spokesman for the federal agency declined to comment when asked by The Times last week.
But after the Trump administration's repeated threats to withhold federal money from cities
that don't cooperate with its immigration crackdown, some LAPD officials said they believe
the move was retaliatory — and a troubling sign of what could come.
Steve Soboroff, president of the civilian Police Commission that oversees the LAPD,
said that he believes the Justice Department denied the funding request because of the
LAPD's well-publicized, hands-off approach to immigration enforcement.
Soboroff said he worries future funding may also be at risk.
"Community policing is what policing's all about.
Militaristic policing, immigrant harassment is not," he said.
"By ignoring that, or prioritizing it beneath their issue of sanctuary cities and cooperation
with ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] — the priorities are wrong."
"If this is the tip of the iceberg, we're going to set back law enforcement and policing
and public safety by decades," he added.
The LAPD had planned to use the money to hire 25 officers for the community policing program
in Harvard Park, one of the city's deadliest neighborhoods.
The roughly half-mile area saw eight homicides in 2016, nearly triple the number from the
year before.
So far this year, six people have been killed.
Los Angeles mayor, Eric Garcetti, has openly defied Trump and been a vocal opponent of
the #MAGA agenda.
A mic.com article on Garcetti features such interludes as:
"We will defend any undocumented worker who's going to be deported," he said flatly
in a recent interview.
The words are backed up in deed: In December, Los Angeles unveiled an ambitious $10-million
fund to provide legal counsel to residents facing deportation.
Los Angeles and Orange counties, after all, are home to 1 million undocumented immigrants,
or nearly 10% of all undocumented immigrants nationwide.
Los Angeles is also one of the major cities that has been targeted by ICE raids in the
aftermath of the election.
Los Angeles County Sheriff Jim McDonnell has said he's afraid of losing $132 Million
over the next three years because of his county's harboring of illegal aliens.
Citing an August LA Daily News article:
On Thursday, Attorney General Jeff Sessions sent letters to four cities — including
two in California — threatening to deny federal crime-fighting aid if the cities don't
step up efforts to help detain and deport people living in the country illegally.
The targeted cities — which have all struggled with crime — are Stockton, San Bernardino,
Baltimore and Albuquerque, New Mexico.
All expressed interest in the Justice Department's new Public Safety Partnership, federal officials
said.
The program provides assistance from federal agents, analysts and technology to find solutions
to crime.
While the Justice Department did not call out any communities in L.A. County in its
latest move to punish so-called sanctuary cities, McDonnell has said the county's
limited cooperation with federal immigration officers strikes a necessary balance between
public safety and public trust.
The bulk of federal grant funds that McDonnell fears could ultimately be in question — $105
million of the $132 million — would come from DHS for the continued development of
a system to enhance radio and broadband communication for police, firefighters, paramedics and other
emergency responders in the countyKeep in mind Los Angeles is also the founding city
of the most vicious gang ever known to man, MS-13.
The LAPD has watched in silence while the city has been overrun by gangs, and either
can't or doesn't want to do anything about it.
They don't need that money until the day they start doing their job.
Going after law abiding gun owners isn't part of their job, their job is to protect
American Citizens living in their city.This is how it works here in my home state of California.
An illegal Alien breaks the law by sneaking into our country to commit crimes, procreate,
and work for peanuts while sponging off the already overburdened taxpayers.
Meanwhile, the Marxist politicians in this looney state are surprised when they learn
most Californians don't agree with the sanctuary state policy but sadly are forced to deal
with it because for all intent and purposes we don't have a Republican party in this
state.
The GOP has been intent on giving us Democrat-light candidates and by the time election day comes,
there is no point in even voting because both candidates are practically the same.
