Tom Homan Says DC No Longer a Sanctuary City While Under Federal Control; Libs Melt Down Over Crime Crackdown

 American Greatness

"Washington DC police chief Pamela Smith issued an executive order Thursday ending the city’s illegal alien sanctuary city policy."


"Washington D.C.’s “sanctuary city” status no longer applies now that President Trump has federalized the capital’s law enforcement, according to Border Czar Tom Homan.
"Homan appeared on Fox News with host Martha MacCallum Wednesday to discuss the D.C. crime crackdown that has enraged Democrats and spurred activists to take to the streets.
" 'Does the fact that there’s National Guard now there—it’s a sanctuary city, like sanctuary cities across the country—but it’s unique in that it has federal control, and now you have the National Guard on the ground side by side with ICE, does that combination basically negate the sanctuary city status in Washington, D.C.— at least for these 30 days, in terms of what you can do there, Tom?” MacCallum asked.
“ 'Yes,” Homan replied. “I think D.C. under federal control is not going to be a sanctuary city.
" 'We’re working with the police hand in hand, and when we encounter a criminal illegal alien, they will be turned over to ICE,” he continued. “And that’s the way it should be.
"“I’m not saying every illegal alien in D.C. is a criminal. But many are,” Homan added. “There is no sanctuary for these people in the city of D.C.” . . .
