California just showed us exactly how far sanctuary politics will go. ICE agents showed up outside the Monterey County Jail in Salinas yesterday for a targeted operation, waiting to take one or more people into custody when they were released. Instead of cooperating, the sheriff put the whole jail on lockdown, stopped new bookings, stopped releases and closed it to visitors. Then a county supervisor, Wendy Root Askew, walked right up to a federal agent on camera and told him nobody would be released while ICE was there. The agent asked her point blank whether they were going to keep people locked up past when they could legally go, just to keep them away from ICE. Her answer was, "They will not be released in a location where ICE is present." Think about that. Local officials would rather shut down their own jail and hold people longer than let federal officers do their job. Here in Texas, our sheriffs work with ICE, and that's how it should be. When someone in the country illegally ends up in jail, they get handed over, not hidden. California chooses to protect illegals over citizens! Hey California are you going to keep voting Democrat? Vote RED for candidates that will put Americans first. See the link to the article in the comments.
