Trump has wasted no time in carrying out the multiculturalism and border plan concessions that were key to his quickly victory in the 2024 presidential election. American of all social ideologies were disgusted by Biden’s open-borders nonsense, and Trump was clear on what he would do.

Officials in Democrat strongholds began squawking about resisting Trump’s federal authorities and laws when he re-elected because eternal cluelessness sells properly in strong blue states and cities. His new leadership has well in advance worked out its constitutional responses, just as Trump and his inner sphere helped the GOP officially prepare for any “anomalies” that might have surfaced during the election.  ,
The assurance of Pam Bondi as attorney general was delayed by administrative nonsense by Congressional Democrats. They undoubtedly anticipated that it would halt the Department of Justice’s return to providing actual justice. It didn’t function. While the Democrats threw a foot-dragging meltdown over Bondi, acting deputy attorney Emil Bove aggressively attempted to advance Trump’s plan. He mandated that Court prosecutors look into any elected officials who refused to cooperate with the authorities when it came to multiculturalism.  ,
My companion, Ed Morrissey, discussed it on our sister website HotAir and shared this article about the ancient vs. the novel:  .
Up until now,” sanctuary” declarations have been a zero-cost opportunity for progressive politicians to engage in virtue signaling. That is, it has been zero-cost to the officials. However, this obstructment has cost American families a lot, including the incidents of people like Laken Riley, whose parents had been able to navigate the country’s legal system without much detriment.
Now this kind of barrier, which was always unlawful, will have a high value for the politicians in” shelter” cities and states. Some may be willing to face federal prosecution for their engagement, but after one or two are truly charged, watch for these politicians to switch to a much less effective and much more symbolic form of protest.  ,

Illinois Governor and other governors have been the loudest Democrats ‘ shelter users railing against Trump. Both JB Pritzker and Brandon Johnson, the governor of Chicago, mistakenly believed they had a card to play around. Once more, the Trump presidency has taken Democrats on an articulate bus from FA to FO.  ,
The Hill:  ,
On Thursday, President Trump’s Justice Department filed a lawsuit against the state of Illinois, the city of Chicago, and regional authorities.  ,
The Justice Department demanded that a judge rule that the state and local steps are illegal because the federal government is supreme in accusing the officials of preventing national immigration protection efforts.
Johnson’s shelter hissy fit is especially mistaken. Chicago has been plagued by illegal immigrants, and his handling of the problems has caused his reputation to be utterly unpopular. It appears as though he is choosing the valley to pass on so quickly that he will perish first.  ,
The Democrats have much preferred to immerse themselves in consequence-free literature that they were foolish enough to believe would last forever. They have already opted out of reality. The Dems will be dragged back into the real world by President Trump and this well-oiled Executive Branch apparatus he has created. How effectively they respond to it completely depends on how long they hold onto their futile “resist” desire.  ,
