Hey, remember when the libs were big on the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution after Texas started enforcing immigration law at the open border because President Joe Biden’s administration wouldn’t?
It turns out they’ve completelyforgotten about that, even though it dealt with the fact that the federal government had left a vacuum that state law would fill.
These days, blue states are trying to tell Immigration and Customs Enforcement that theycan’tenforce the law in their states, or are at least trying to set the conditions under which the federal government may enforce it.
Thankfully, this is something that the Supremacy Clauseisdesigned to handle — and White House Border Czar Tom Homan hasn’t forgotten it.
In response to a threat from New York Democrats to introduce state legislation that would prevent local police from cooperating with federal officials, Homan told an audience at a function in Arizona on Tuesday that New York Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul would see “more ICE agents than you’ve ever seen before,” according toWNYW-TV.
Later in the day, Hochul again tried to set the boundaries for how federal law enforcement enforces federal law.
“All I’ll say to Mr. Homan is that Donald Trump himself said he would not send a surge of ICE agents to the state of New York unless I ask,” Hochul said. “I’m not asking.”
This was before the suite of legislation, mind you, which not only makes non-cooperation mandatory, but also makesdoxxing ICE agentseasier by trying to ban them from wearing masks in the state.
Nevertheless, in an appearance on Fox News Wednesday, Homan was asked about Hochul’s remarks, which drew a chuckle from him.
