There is an old adage that says ‘you reap what you sow.’ I think some of our politicians who depend on law enforcement to keep the peace in their cities and states might want to think about that. On Friday, The New York Post posted an article about New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill setting up an internet site to track and take videos of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE). That seems to be interfering with the enforcement of the law, and I believe that is a crime.

The article reports:

Lefty New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill urged residents to film ICE agents operating in their neighborhoods and upload the videos to a state “portal” she vowed to launch.

“If you see an ICE agent in the street, get your phone out,” the Democrat, just eight days into her first term as governor of the Garden State, said in a sit-down interview with The Daily Show host Desi Lydic Wednesday night.

Sherill’s administration will soon be launching a “portal,” she said, so New Jerseyans “can upload all their cell phone videos and alert people” about local immigration operations.

It was unclear how much this portal would cost Garden State taxpayers to launch.

…“Keeping New Jerseyans safe is Governor Sherrill’s top priority and, in the coming days, she and Acting Attorney General Davenport will announce additional actions to protect New Jerseyans from federal overreach,” spokesperson Sean Higgins said in a statement.

If you are truly interesting in keeping the residents of New Jersey safe, you might consider taking murders and rapists who are here illegally off the streeets.

The article concludes:

Homan ( border czar, Tom Homan) also denounced the harsh rhetoric directed at ICE and other immigration law enforcement officers from Minnesota and across the country.

“I begged for the last two months on TV for the rhetoric to stop. I said in March — if the rhetoric doesn’t stop, there is gonna be bloodshed. And there has been. I wish I wasn’t right. I don’t want to see anybody die,” Homan said. 

Sherrill, meanwhile, compared ICE to secret police forces she saw in other countries when she served in the Navy.

“We saw people in the street with masks and no insignia. So not accountable at all, hiding from the population – and we saw again and again an undermining of what law enforcement should do to keep people safe,” she said on the Daily Show.

The message from the Democrats is simple–when you elect someone we don’t like, we will create chaos; when you elect someone we like, we will sit down and be quiet. I think the correct answer to that is to arrest those encouraging the chaos as well as those causing it. This is not acceptable.
