ICE raid hits 77 businesses in Northern California

By Stephen Frank on Feb 02, 2018 08:12 pm
Good news—the Federal government is doing its job.  ICE is enforcing the Federal immigration laws.  I can not wait till California AG Becerra tells these folks they are not allowed to obey Federal law.  That would give ICE the RIGHT and Requirement of arresting Becerra for obstruction of justice and in violation of the law […]

By Stephen Frank on Feb 02, 2018 07:51 pm
