Summary
Democratic-led cities and states are mobilizing to resist Trump’s planned mass deportations, with measures like sanctuary policies, legal challenges, and public opposition.
Cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, and Philadelphia have vowed to shield undocumented residents, and LA’s school district declared itself a migrant sanctuary.
Trump plans to sign executive orders and withhold federal grants to enforce deportations, but legal obstacles are expected, as seen during his first term.
Opponents argue deportations harm communities and families, while Trump allies assert a mandate for strict immigration enforcement.
I’m sure the “states rights” promoting Republicans will be totally fine with this. I’m sure they’re totally not going to blow a gasket and threaten to send in the army if they don’t get their way. They would never do that, right?
Homan already said he’ll arrest any mayor that resists him
