Yesterday 136 residents of California mostly Angelinos were rounded up by agents of I.C.E.,the Immigration & Customs Enforcement agency which is one arm of the Department of Homeland Security created in 2002.These illegal immigrants are perpetrators of felony level crimes and thus instantly deportable. In fact many of the felonies are being disputed in court or are trivial or consequences of trying to work despite illegal status.The trolling Trumpeter turned pugnacious POTUS has thrown down the gauntlet to states that harbor Sanctuary Cities.He has also attacked the Californian Gubernator(Schwarzenegger) and is still smarting from the refusal of the (probably republican)California beach city of Rancho Palos Verdes to rename a street approaching his golf course, Trump Boulevard.The first person to be deported by Trump under this new/old initiative was a 35 year old Arizonan woman who had lived in this country for 11 years and had three citizen children,her violation was use of a forged social security card.Not exactly dangerous.Thus local law enforcement may find themselves torn between protecting state residents and aiding ICE agents.Governor Brown has refused to order state police to aid ICE and both the LAPD chief and Chief Sheriff of the County have declared their intention to stick with the sanctuary city definition of the situation.If a confrontation or mass disorder in protest come about, Governor Brown will have to think twice about ordering out the National Guard which can then be nationalized by Trump.Whereupon those commanders will have to decide who to obey or whether they should fire on fellow citizens or other enforcement officers.I believe that troops called up under those circumstances(civil unrest) are not supposed to use arms to police civilians.
One has to hand it to Vladimir Putin who has not only recreated the Romanoffs(Trumps) on American soil but has managed to set Rasputin(Bannon) with them.This Rasputin is trying to bring down Pope Francis as well as trying to involve us in an armed conflict with China.Your orders Vladimir? Won’t you settle for just a slice of Alaska? That part that “Drill Baby Drill” Sarah is standing on!
As for the lady from Arizona, she broke the law twice: being an illegal alien & forging social security. She shouldn’t be allowed to stay in the country!
As for China, it is a very dangerous country.

A strict constructionist point of view.By way of correction it appears that she was in the country for 22 years and has only two grown children.Also 161 people were arrested in Southern California.Our gardener warned of it the day before so these draconian measures are accompanied by LOL ( lots of leakage).
What happens to her Social Security contribution? Surely, there must be millions of people who have “falsely” contributed to the fund. Hmm.
