Bummer: SCSF Next Target Of Immigration Operation

I still maintain that the Trump admin should prioritize going to areas that voted for him to scoop up the illegals first, but, you do have to utterly enjoy and be entertained by the apoplexy from Democrats when the target is a liberal city like Sanctuary City San Francisco

Major federal immigration operation headed to San Francisco Bay Area

The Trump administration has dispatched more than 100 federal agents, including from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, to Coast Guard Base Alameda and they will begin to arrive Thursday, according to a source familiar with the operation.

In other cities, National Guard deployments have come in support of immigration enforcement operations, which President Donald Trump has said are critical to protecting U.S. jobs and public safety.

The surge of federal agents could set the stage for a potential showdown between the Trump administration and San Francisco’s leaders, who have said the city does not need federal intervention and have vowed to sue to block any National Guard deployment.

The source spoke to the Chronicle on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media. The Coast Guard is part of the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees Customs and Border Protection.

Yeah, well, in a showdown SCSF loses, as Los Federales have primacy on immigration matters as stated in the US Constitution.

Gov. Gavin Newsom on Wednesday responded to the surge of federal agents on social media.

“California has seen enough,” Newsom wrote. “President Trump and Stephen Miller’s authoritarian playbook is coming for another of our cities, and violence and vandalism are exactly what they’re looking for to invoke chaos. Help keep yourself and your communities safe. Remain peaceful.”

It would have been more fun if the deployment was in Sacramento, the capital of the People’s Republik Of California. Anyhow, one estimate is that illegals, adults and children, cost the PRC almost $30 billion a year. That’s $7K per legal resident. Another hard left estimate states illegals contribute $8.5 billion yearly. How’s that math work out?

(Mercury News) In San Francisco, Mayor Daniel Lurie on Wednesday threatened to sue the Trump administration if it sent National Guard troops to the city, and he announced an executive directive ordering city agencies to coordinate in support of immigrant families. At a news conference, he said the influx of federal agents would only undermine efforts to combat crime and the city’s drug crisis.

“Having the military posted in front of our schools, restaurants and office buildings will hinder our progress and let chaos get in the way of our recovery,” Lurie said in a virtual news conference.

Too bad, judges keep ruling in favor of the National Guard deployments. Hey, it might decrease the crime in SCSF.
