Cop in Hot Water for Cooperating With ICE

It isn’t easy being a police officer in a jurisdiction dominated by progressives. Your job is to uphold law and order. But that runs contrary to the liberal agenda, so it can get you in big trouble, especially if you cooperate with ICE:

A police officer in Fairfax County, Virginia, is facing disciplinary action for contacting Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the scene of a traffic accident involving an illegal immigrant wanted for deportation.

If something similar had happened with Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, Kate Steinle would still be alive — and yet:

Fairfax County police Chief Edwin Roessler said the officer has been relieved of all law enforcement duties pending the outcome of an investigation.

Here’s why helping his own government enforce immigration law was a major transgression:

The arrest procedure at issue is a 2007 police department ruling that forbids police from taking into custody anyone whom the system flags as having an “outstanding administrative warrant of removal,” unless that person isn’t being taken into custody for another violation of the law.

This insanity will not be relieved by the kooks running Virginia.

In April 2018, Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam vetoed a bill that would have prohibited the establishment of sanctuary cities in the state; contrary to his pre-election promise.

In hopes of surviving the media discovering ancient pictures of him wearing blackface, Northam will go to any extreme to make a pageant of his eagerness to sacrifice the interests of the core population to anyone likely to have darker skin.

Fairfax County is a suburb of the District of Corruption. The area is crawling with criminal illegal aliens:

A recent ICE operation netted 57 illegal immigrants in Virginia and Washington, D.C. The agency said the arrestees came from Honduras, Guatemala, Mexico, El Salvador, Argentina, Bolivia, and Kazakhstan. Of the 57 aliens, 41 had criminal histories including sexual assault, aggravated assault, possession of cocaine, larceny, forgery, driving under the influence, illegal entry, and illegal re-entry.

It isn’t just the Washington area. California is also run by Democrats who aggressively side with foreign criminals against law-abiding American citizens, as is Chicago:

“We will never, ever succumb to the racist, xenophobic rhetoric of ICE,” [Chicago Mayor Lori] Lightfoot said, according to WGNTV. “We will continue to ban ICE from having access to any CPD databases. We’ll not allow any CPD officer to cooperate with anything related to ICE and its immigration raids.”

Until recently, it would have been unthinkable that anyone as irresponsible and as openly hostile to America’s interests and to the rule of law could be mayor of a major city. But Lightfoot is a Lesbian of Color, so she is not without qualifications.

It is a testament to the liberal establishment media’s effective at brainwashing that more than one person in a hundred votes Democrat. Americans don’t have long to stop doing it before the country is irretrievably lost.
