[Wash Times] The country’s top immigration enforcement officer says he is looking into charging sanctuary city leaders with violating federal anti-smuggling laws because he is fed up with local officials putting their communities and his officers at risk by releasing illegal immigrants from jail.
Thomas Homan, the acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, also told Americans to expect more work site enforcement targeting unscrupulous employers and more 287(g) agreements with willing police and sheriff’s departments that want to help get illegal immigrants off their streets. Eventually, he said, ICE will break the deportation records of 409,849 migrants set in 2012 under President Obama.
"I think 409,000 is a stretch this year, but if [the Justice Department] keeps going in the direction they’re going in, if we continue to expand our operational footprint, I think we’re going to get there," he told The Washington Times. "Our interior arrests will go up. They’re going to top last year’s for sure."
Mr. Homan is the spear tip of President Trump’s effort to step up immigration enforcement -- perhaps the largest swing in attitude for any agency in government from the last administration to the current one.
Agents and officers have been unshackled from the limits imposed by Mr. Obama, whose rules restricted arrests to less than 20 percent of the estimated illegal immigrant population.

These sanctuary cities must view themselves as the "2017 Underground Railroad" and the next late-great civil rights cause. These people are law-breakers as are the people who come here illegally. Good for ICE. I noticed they didn't release this info through WAPO. Hard telling what would been printed if they did.

The 'Underground Railroad' moved people to Canada. If that's their intent, then carry on otherwise you are engaged in conspiracy to violate federal law.

...Given the fervor with which these people defend their views, they will have no problem going to prison for them. But I suspect that after the first two or three end up doing hard time, the rest may reconsider.

[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Rulers need someone to protect them from excessive dreaming that leads to falling into delusions. The need for that doubles if the ruler of a certain country is wealthy.
With the absence of institutions and guarantees, no minister or adviser dares to trouble the leader with a report about how hard things are or about the actual dangers. Usually, the commander would hear what makes him happy apart from facts and reality.
The truth is that unnatural roles coming out of illusions soon become a burden. The circumstances of the "Arab Spring" allowed Qatar

[PJ] WASHINGTON -- The leading champion of the Magnitsky Act human rights sanctions on Russia told the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday that he has zero doubt Russian intelligence knew beforehand about a meeting with the Trump campaign and plotted in advance to try to turn the anti-sanctions effort to their advantage.
Hermitage Capital Management CEO Bill Browder's lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, discovered massive Russian government fraud that led to Magnitsky's imprisonment, torture, and 2009 death. After Congress passed the sanctions on individuals and entities responsible for Magnitsky's death, the Kremlin retaliated by blocking the adoption of Russian children in the U.S.

In the world of intelligence damage assessments, the evidence at hand would clearly implicate the Soviets Russians. One could hardly assume otherwise.
The greater question however, was USI (US Intelligence) aware of the Veselnitskaya meet. If not.... why not? One must likewise assume USI was at least as witting as the Russians. After all, it is our swamp, our turf.
The obvious follow-up question (rhetorical of course), why was the Trump campaign not provided a 'heads up.'

Nah, not retaliation, just Russia trying to protect their kids against pedos.

There are those who now claim that the organization that supplied the Democrats with the crazy allegations against Trump also were working both sides, ie the Dems and the Russians, and the allegations against Trump were invented by Russian intelligence. Also that same organization seems to have been behind the meeting with Trump Jr.
They conclude that it was the Clinton campaign that colluded with the Russians to create dirt against Trump through both of these things, once Trump got the nomination. The invitation to the meeting was phrased (peculiarly) to assert that it was the Trump campaign hoping to collude.
The Russian aim, it is said, was to weaken the US government no matter who won. That seems to be the Democrat's goal today as well.

[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] The fallout from the Panama Papers leak from 2016 has had reverberations around the world. But perhaps nowhere will the consequences be as strong and as positive as in Pakistain.
Corruption is probably the biggest problem in Pakistain. It has been a feature of virtually all since Pakistain’s founding, both civilian and military. And it is one of the main drivers for all the other problems Pakistain is facing: from a tanking economy, a ruined infrastructure and a fractured society in which terrorism and radical ideologies thrive.
Corruption may not sound as dramatic as terrorism, but terrorism festers in dysfunctional, poorly managed societies or fringes of societies. And corruption in Pakistain has rendered the entire country dysfunctional and unjust.
