Markwayne arrests more than 2100 criminals across New York

DHS Secretary Mullin rips New York leaders after Operation Rotten Apple nets over 2,100 arrests

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin announced more than 2,100 arrests of convicted criminals across New York State in a single month, and laid the blame for their presence squarely on the governor and mayor who refused to cooperate.

Mullin held a press conference at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services field office in New York City on September 1, 2026, unveiling the results of a federal enforcement sweep called Operation Rotten Apple. The operation ran for 33 days, from July 27 through August 29, and ICE agents arrested 2,197 illegal immigrants statewide, without help from city or state law enforcement.

The secretary did not explain why the federal government had to act alone. He named New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Governor Kathy Hochul directly, accusing both of shielding violent offenders from federal immigration enforcement through sanctuary policies and deliberate obstruction.

Mullin calls out Mamdani's $22 million NYPD budget cut--"Operation Rotten Apple was initiated because New York City has a liberal, socialist mayor who, instead of working with law enforcement, tried to cut NYPD's budget by $22 million and refused to cooperate with federal law enforcement.

Illegal aliens being coached to defy ICE

DHS chief calls out top Democrats,aka Anti-Americans, for coaching illegal immigrants on how to resist ICE

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin singled out four of the Democratic Party's most visible figures, including two widely discussed 2028 presidential contenders, for hosting webinars, publishing multilingual guides, and posting social media instructions that he said teach illegal immigrants how to "openly defy" Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

Mullin's broadside, delivered in a social media post shared by DHS, named Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Rep. Dan Goldman of New York (at least he lost his primary), and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass.

AOC framed immigration enforcement itself as an "abuse" of power.

The accusation landed the same morning President Trump announced that ICE would resume vehicle stops after a one-day pause triggered by two officer-involved shootings in Maine and Texas.

As Fox News Digital reported, Mullin tied the spike in dangerous encounters directly to what he called reckless guidance from elected officials. In his post, the secretary wrote:
"This reckless [illegal alien] activity comes after sanctuary politicians held webinars and shared resources for how to openly defy [ICE]."
Mullin's 1,300 percent figure on vehicle attacks, if accurate, suggests the coaching is having real-world consequences. Officers are getting attacked at rates that forced DHS to temporarily pull back one of its core enforcement tools.

The secretary drew a direct line between the webinars, the Instagram posts, the flyers, and the violence his agents face on the road.

NO more funding to Sanctuary States and Cities

Trump Declares Funding Cuts to Sanctuary Cities, States

President Donald Trump said Tuesday that his administration will halt federal funding to cities and states that have declared themselves sanctuaries for illegal aliens beginning next month.

Trump made the remarks at the Detroit Economic Club in a speech that aired live on Newsmax and the Newsmax2 free online streaming platform.

"Starting Feb. 1, we're not making any payments to sanctuary cities or states having sanctuary cities because they do everything possible to protect criminals at the expense of American citizens," Trump said to applause.

"And it breeds fraud and crime and all of the other problems that come. So, we're not making any payment to anybody that supports sanctuary cities."

The Department of Justice has designated 11 states and the District of Columbia, three counties and 18 cities as sanctuary jurisdictions based on policies that impede enforcement of federal immigration statutes and regulations.

Lake Worth Beach is a sanctuary city, specifically for the LGBTQ+ community, a status declared by a city commission resolution in September 2023 that passed unanimously.

This declaration is largely symbolic and intended to affirm the city's commitment to inclusivity and protection from discrimination. It does not appear to be an immigration "sanctuary city" in the traditional sense of having a formal policy to limit cooperation with federal immigration enforcement agencies, and local law enforcement (Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office) does assist federal agencies.

ICE facility near Chicago Blocked by Crazy Protesters

Activism, Uncensored: A Return to ICE Protests in Illinois

ICE now has a fence outside its facility in suburban Chicago, but the demonstrations are intensifying

Protests outside an ICE facility in Broadview, Ill., have intensified since the agency launched Operation Midway Blitz three weeks ago.

“This ICE operation will target the criminal illegal aliens who flocked to Chicago and Illinois because they knew Governor Pritzker and his sanctuary policies would protect them and allow them to roam free on American streets,” says an ICE press release in announcing the operation.

Trump gets immigration win

Appeals court hands Trump big immigration victory

A federal appeals court has blocked New Jersey Democrats from mo
ving ahead with an unlawful scheme to block President Trump from housing illegal aliens in privately run detention centers.

The 2-1 ruling is a warning shot to "sanctuary" jurisdictions around the country that are actively trying to thwart President Trump's mass deportation plans.

In 2021, New Jersey's Democratic governor Phil Murphy signed a law that bars state, local, and private entities from making contracts with the federal government to house illegal immigrants.

The appeals court called New Jersey's ban on private detention centers a "clever" ruse that flies in the face of the Constitution. The law was clearly "intended to ban immigration detention," the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit found.

Blue State Democrat Governors/Mayors say "we will resist ICE"

Chicago Mayor Urges City To ‘Resist’ Looming Trump Immigration Crackdown

This guy is worse than Lori Lightfoot and that's saying something!

Democratic Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson urged city residents on Wednesday to “resist” the Trump administration as it escalates its immigration enforcement operations nationwide, according to the Chicago Tribune.

Speaking at a Wednesday news conference, Johnson condemned President Donald Trump’s decision to deploy federal troops to help control the riots in Los Angeles, which were triggered by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids in the city. The mayor referred to the federal crackdown as a “war on our culture” (what the hell does that mean?)and urged city residents to take action, the Tribune reported.

“I am counting on all of Chicago to resist in this moment. Because whatever particular vulnerable group is targeted today, another group will be next,” Johnson said, according to the Tribune. “This is a necessary fight for all of us to be able to push back. Whether we use the courts or whether we continue to protest or raise our voices, dissent matters in this moment. Look, [Trump] is abusing his power. We warned people though. You all know we warned people.”

On Thursday, Democratic Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker appeared before the House Oversight Committee, along with Democratic governors of other “sanctuary states,” including Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, to defend their policies.

Riots in Los Angeles against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement



There are fires being set in the streets of LA with rioting invaders with Mexican flags running around attacking our ICE agents who are trying to arrest dangerous illegals!

President Trump ordered National Guard troops to Los Angeles to restore order and protect federal agents doing their jobs because the Democrat Mayor of LA, Karen Bass, is siding with the illegal invaders and has ordered Los Angeles police to not assist or protect ICE agents arresting criminals.

What the hell is wrong with Democrats? And California is a bogeyman state, probably the worst of the sanctuary states in the country.

ALIPAC.us believes the feds should charge Democrat Mayor Bass and any other politicians obstructing justice for illegals should be arrested and charged under 8 U.S. Code § 1324 where it is illegal to "encourage or induce an alien to come to, enter, or reside in the United States."

Tom Homan confronts Sanctuary Governor

Tom Homan left one Democrat Governor shell-shocked with this jaw-dropping promise

Trump border czar puts Wisconsin Governor on notice over illegal immigration

President Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, issued a stern warning to Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers that sent shockwaves through the Democrat establishment.

The confrontation began after Evers issued a memo instructing state employees to contact attorneys before cooperating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents who visit state government buildings.

Homan didn’t mince words when asked about Evers and his directive.

“Wait till you see what’s coming,” the White House border czar told reporters. “I meant what I said. You can not support what we’re doing. And you can support sanctuary cities if that’s what you want to do. But if you cross that line of impediment or knowingly harboring and concealing an illegal alien, that is a felony. And we’ll treat it as such.”

Democrat Governors of Sanctuary States are called to testify

Tim Walz was scared stiff after James Comer threw him this nasty curveball

James Comer has called on Democrat governors of sanctuary states, including Tim Walz, J.B. Pritzker, and Kathy Hochul, to testify before the Oversight Committee about their immigration policies, particularly those obstructing federal law enforcement.

Comer’s aggressive stance includes reminding the Governors that harboring illegal aliens is a federal crime and threatening to withhold federal funding from sanctuary states, a move backed by President Trump.

As sanctuary cities and states are put on the defensive, the Democrats’ support for such policies faces scrutiny, with Republicans pushing for stronger enforcement of federal immigration laws.

Sanctuary states and cities are fighting tooth and nail to stop President Donald Trump from deporting illegal aliens.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) is putting the Democrat Governors of some of the country’s biggest sanctuary states in the hot seat.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, and New York Governor Kathy Hochul were called to testify before the Oversight Committee. The Democrat Governors will be asked to testify on their states’ sanctuary policies.

“Sanctuary jurisdictions and their obstructionist policies hinder the ability of federal law enforcement officers to effectuate safe arrests and remove dangerous criminals from American communities,” Comer wrote Governors. “This threatens Americans’ safety.”

Comer also requested that the Governors hand over documents about their immigration policies.

Illinois Governor and Chicago Mayor questioned about Illegals and Sanctuary Cities

Pritzker Cornered: Cartel Funding Allegations and Trump’s Immigration Orders!

In a fiery confrontation during a press conference, Real America’s Voice correspondent Ben Bergquam and Terry Newsome of the Behind Enemy Lines podcast put Illinois Governor JB Pritzker on the spot.

This occurred while the Governor, alongside Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, was attempting to rally against President Trump’s recent initiatives aimed at tackling sanctuary cities and addressing the rampant illegal immigration challenges.

Held at a West Side lighting manufacturing plant, the press event was supposed to focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion, as the Governor and Mayor pledged their continued opposition to Trump’s intensified immigration policies.

These policies include planned mass deportations and the dismantling of federal DEI programs, which Trump signed into effect through a recent Memorandum. Over 300 violent offenders, including notorious criminals like murderers and child rapists, have reportedly been apprehended under these enforcement efforts, marking a significant step in President Trump’s commitment to upholding law and order.

Ben Bergquam, known for his assertive reporting and dedication to exposing the truth about illegal immigration and its consequences, questioned Pritzker directly.

He asked how much taxpayer money has been spent on supporting illegal immigrants in Chicago and beyond, highlighting the recent email from Mayor Johnson that suggested even more funds would be allocated for their protection, potentially neglecting the needs of American citizens, especially in vulnerable communities on the West and South Sides of Chicago.

Youngkin planning to ban Sanctuary Cities in Virginia

Republican Governor Lays Out Plan to Punish City Leaders Who Refuse to Work With Trump

Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin is proposing a budget to ban "sanctuary cities" in the state. It ensures tax dollars won’t go to areas that refuse to comply with ICE.

Under the plan, local police must honor ICE detainer requests for criminal illegal immigrants. They also have to notify federal authorities within two days of releasing such individuals.

Cities or counties identifying as sanctuary cities will lose state funding. This includes money typically used to support local police departments.

Department of Criminal Justice Services, led by Youngkin appointee Jackson Miller, will oversee the withholding of "599 Funding" for these municipalities.

"Criminals who are in the United States illegally will be turned over to ICE," Youngkin told Fox News Digital. "Virginia is not a sanctuary state, and we will not allow localities to become sanctuary cities."

Blue States hiring illegals to supplement their Police Dept to arrest American Citizens

States look to hire illegal immigrants to fatten struggling police departments

Do they get guns too?

Struggling to fill the ranks of their police officers, some blue-state politicians are turning to an unusual option: illegal immigrants.

A California law that took effect earlier this year allows non-citizens — including some unauthorized migrants — to sign up if they are protected from deportation, including by the Obama-era DACA program. Colorado and Illinois have followed suit with laws allowing some non-citizens to join the force.

And Gruesome Newsom wants to be President!?

“It’s a massive problem,” said Matt O’Brien, a former immigration judge who is now with the Immigration Reform Law Institute. “You’ve got this muddle of issues where there is no settled law, and it’s now crashing into the fact that these idiots in the defund-the-police movement have caused a crisis in law enforcement.”

Read about it...

The irony of this is staggering--defund the police, have a massive shortage of public safety personnel and then hire illegals who in many respects are criminals just for crossing the border.

Bill Maher Slams Progressives on Illegals situation

Bill Maher, a self-proclaimed “old-school liberal,” is slamming progressive leaders of “woke” cities

including New York City, accusing them of hypocrisy in complaining about the influx of asylum seekers.

In his “Club Random” podcast on Sunday, Maher questions the posturing of sanctuary cities, calling them out for welcoming migrants but panicking when they actually arrive from overwhelmed border states.

"It's just a good example of, could everybody just stop the posturing?" Maher asked. "Don't pretend that you love migrants so much and then when we send them to you, you don't like them. You're full of shit and we can see that. You liked them when it wasn't your problem because you're not a border state. Then when they show up in Chicago, in New York, you're like, 'What the fuck are we going to do with these people?'"

"There's got to be a solution to this that is compassionate. Is it that hard to be compassionate without being an asshole?" Maher asked.

In some states, Illegal Aliens can become police officers and throw you in jail

Biden’s America: New Law Allows Illegal Aliens to Police Americans

Welcome to Joe Biden’s America, where in certain states, illegal aliens can now become police officers and enforce the law over American citizens. But illegal aliens broke the law to begin with.

Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker signed legislation into law that allows foreigners with work permits, including illegal aliens, to become police officers within the sanctuary state.

The law was signed late last week and takes effect immediately.

So…..non-citizen people who are actively breaking the law will now be allowed to arrest citizens who break the law. What else would you expect from a Democrat-run state?? It's also in affect in crazy California.

Illinois Governor and Mayor Lori Lightfoot are ticked off at Governor Abbott!

Well, Illinois is a Sanctuary State, Texas is not

Chicago Mayor Lightfoot Welcomes Illegals to Chicago, Immediately Buses Them Out

'Now one of the Left's own icons who checks every box -- female, lesbian, black, woke -- has been caught busing illegal aliens out of her jurisdiction...

Chicago Democrat Mayor Lori Lightfoot proudly and publicly welcomed illegal immigrants to her sanctuary city with a warm embrace, and then quickly gave them the cold shoulder and deported them to another town.

Chicago, after all, is a sanctuary city thanks to Lightfoot’s embrace of illegal immigration, but apparently only when it doesn’t impact her own backyard.

“The Left has painted any governor or mayor who doesn’t welcome illegal immigrants as ‘racist,'” noted Headline Health. “Now one of the Left’s own icons who checks every box — female, lesbian, black, woke — has been caught busing illegal aliens out of her jurisdiction.”

Illinois Senate Passed a bill to make Illinois a Sanctuary State

llinois Senate Passes Bill Strengthening Legal Protection For Immigrants/ILLEGALS

The bill that passed in the Senate 36/19 would prevent state and local law enforcement agencies from collaborating with federal agencies such as Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or from otherwise inquiring about an individual’s immigration status unless presented with a federal warrant.

Under SB 667, all existing immigrant detention centers in the state would be required to close by Jan. 1, 2022. The bill would also allow the state attorney general’s office to investigate violations of the TRUST Act and enforce compliance through local courts.

Chicago Democrat Omar Aquino introduced the bill and said that law enforcement still could do its job--"The bill would not prevent law enforcement agencies from investigating or detaining individuals in violation of criminal law." Good luck to that.

Alt-Left Liberal Policies are the Problem

Illegal Alien Arrested for Fatal Crash Flees to Mexico After County Ignores ICE Detainer

An illegal alien who killed an American citizen while street racing was released and fled to Mexico, thanks to Oregon’s sanctuary state status.

It's time to end sanctuary cities. In June, Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill banning sanctuary cities in the State of Florida. And guess what happened next....the alt-left Palm Beach Post editorial board mocked him for doing so saying we didn't even have one sanctuary city in the state.

California Denies Sanctuary to Sex-trafficked Girls

Officials with the Freedom of Conscience Defense Fund and the Thomas More Society have joined to bring a civil rights lawsuit against the state of California for preventing the opening of a center to help girls escape sex trafficking.

If you're a Mexican national who has completed your sentence for murder, the state of California will protect you. But if you're a victim of sex-trafficking, California won't let others protect you.
