Regarding my state's demands that ICE stop working here, and actions that more or less make it impossible for ICE to do their work, it strikes me that if this sets a precedent, any state can shut down the EPA, IRS, DOJ....and then the question comes up "isn't this textbook obstruction of justice, and doesn't Tampon Tim belong in the graybar hotel?".
I think the answer is yes. I'm actually not a huge fan of how Trump is doing his immigration sweeps; I'd be much lower key by requesting that jails and prisons notify ICE before releasing illegal immigrants so they can be picked up, and then if they don't comply, make it public exactly which officials want their communities to have more criminals among them. But that said, we do happen to have millions of illegals here using government services, and forcing lower income Americans to use welfare services, and we've got to do something to mitigate this problem.
Prohibiting ICE from working altogether should not be on anyone's dance card here, and those public officials who think it ought to be should be in jail. Let Walz be the "dancing queen" there.
