Justice Department Still Funding Sanctuaries
Feds subsidizing obstruction of federal law enforcement
 
By Nathan Desautels on July 19, 2024
The Department of Justice’s (DOJ) grant allocations have long been a subject of scrutiny, especially concerning their impact on sanctuary jurisdictions — those localities that deliberately obstruct federal immigration enforcement. This report delves into the latest data from 2023, expanding the search for funding to the Office of Justice Programs (OJP).

Background
The Center for Immigration Studies has identified about 300 states and localities with sanctuary policies that obstruct immigration enforcement and shield criminals from U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement (ICE). These policies include refusing ICE detainers, imposing unreasonable conditions on detainer acceptance, denying ICE access to interview incarcerated aliens, or prohibiting local officials from communicating with federal immigration officers.

Some of these policies violate federal law (8 USC 1373 and 1644), which prohibits state or local governments from restricting communication with federal immigration authorities about a person’s immigration status.

This analysis examines three DOJ grant programs: the State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP), the Office of Justice Programs (OJP), and the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS). SCAAP reimburses state and local prisons for a portion of the cost of incarcerating illegal aliens. The OJP provides federal justice and law enforcement funding to state and local jurisdictions. The COPS program funds community policing efforts.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Much of our federal government needs serious dismantling and reorganization.    And the DOJ/FBI should be priority 1.

Our Feds have become on a large scale those Movies you see that have big city cops who go corrupt, and become drunk with power.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

Someone is signing off on this.

Not only is this funding being used to suborn the violation of Immigration Law, that makes these people material accessories to every crime committed, from illegal entry to whatever done while those illegals are here in addition to that (murder, rape, robbery, etc.)

There should be enough to put that whole bunch away for life.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
