Add the San Diego County Board of Supervisors to your list of far-left elected officials and better follow the advice of incoming border czar Tom Homan: Read the federal law that prohibits illegal aliens from being in the country.
Supervisors voted 3-1 to make the county a “super sanctuary” and not cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) regarding mass deportations. County Sheriff Kelly Martinez immediately said the supervisor does not control her office and cannot prohibit it from cooperating with ICE in deporting criminals.
It is unclear whether regulators will interfere with the deportation, which would violate laws banning the stay of illegal aliens. It is also possible that the county could become in a state of rebellion or insurrection against the United States government.
board vote
Apparently believing they have unlimited authority, supervisors voted to block the use of county resources to assist ICE. That includes deporting dangerous criminals. NBC affiliate 7 San Diego reported.
Board Chair Nora Vargas said the policy is “designed to focus local resources on addressing the county's most pressing needs while protecting families and promoting community trust.” ” he said.
“Immigration enforcement is a federal responsibility, and our county will not become a tool for policies that harm our residents,” said Vargas, who proposed the proposal.
According to the board's letter, the policy requires chief executive officers to effectively implement the policy by “reporting to federal immigration authorities within 180 days data related to movements or notifications over the past year; It instructs them to make recommendations.
The board complained that:
When federal immigration authorities (force) local law enforcement to carry out deportations, families are separated and community trust in law enforcement and local government erodes.
Jim Desmond, the only Republican on the board, said the vote would make the county a “super sanctuary.”
Alarmingly, the county spends $5 million in taxpayer dollars on legal fees for undocumented aliens who are about to be deported for no crime, the station reported, citing Desmond.
sheriff's response
Sheriff Martinez said her office follows state law because the county supervisor does not control her office.
“Current state laws regulating the ability of local police departments to cooperate with immigration authorities have undergone significant debate during their respective legislative processes,” she said. “There are no loopholes when it comes to what the law says.”
And state law allows law enforcement to turn criminals over to ICE, according to a news release.
State law allows sheriff's offices to share the release dates of individuals in sheriff's custody only if they have been convicted of certain felonies, violent crimes, or sex crimes. and) law enforcement agencies are authorized to cooperate with immigration authorities. Predetermined. This includes information about individuals with certain convictions, including but not limited to sexual abuse, child abuse, assault, battery, and/or possession, sale, distribution, manufacture, or trafficking of controlled substances. Includes the functionality provided.
Therefore, because the superintendent “does not set policy for the Sheriff's Office,” the “Sheriff's Office will not change its practices based on the board resolutions and policies passed at today's meeting.” ”.
Incoming Border Czar Tom Homan said Martinez is right, the county does not set the sheriff's department's policy.
“As President Trump approaches his inauguration, tensions continue to rise over who is responsible for mass deportations,” he wrote. “This time it was between the sheriff and the San Diego County Board of Supervisors,” he continued.
Essentially, the sheriff has made his position clear to Democrats on the board, saying he knew she wouldn't follow this line before voting 3-1 in favor of virtue. It's just sending a signal.
It's a good thing that Sheriff Kelly Martinez was on the right side of history with President Trump.
America, there are only 40 days left until Emancipation Day begins!

San Diego regulators, like those in Denver and Boston, appear to want to openly defy federal authorities.
Far-left Mayor Mike Johnston has announced that if ICE attempts mass deportations in Denver, he will send police to the county along with “50,000” Denver residents to stop what the majority of Americans clearly want. He warned that he would be sent to the border.
The Boston City Council, led by the daughter of Haitian immigrants, has vowed to uphold Mayor Michelle Wu's warning to stop mass deportations.
But Homan warned Wu: “Either she helps us or she gets out of the way, because we're going to do it.”
There is a clear line here and they cannot cross that clear line. I encourage her to read Title 8 of Title 1324 III, United States Code, which states that federal law enforcement officers may not harbor or conceal illegal aliens. …
They can't work together, but there are laws in place that shouldn't be crossed, so I hope she doesn't cross them.
Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey echoed Johnston and Wu's promise.
Homan advised other far-left mayors to “educate themselves.”
“They need to review this,” he told Fox News.
U.S. Code 1324 Title 8 III. Read about it and don't cross that line because harboring and hiding illegal aliens from ICE is a felony. Please read the statute. Don't cross that line.
Local authorities could also face charges of sedition and rioting if they interfere with federal immigration enforcement. According to 18 U.S.C. Section 2383:
Any person who incites, raises, supports, or engages in rebellion or insurrection contrary to the authority of the United States or its laws, or who gives aid or comfort to them, shall be fined under this title. or be sentenced to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 10 years. both; and shall not be able to hold any office under the United States.
Such an act would allow the president to call up the National Guard to enforce the law.
