The City of Glendale in Los Angeles County said in a statement on Sunday that the decision to end the agreement DHS and ICE was “not made lightly.”
Can all us blue states terminate our contract with our federal government? Fuckers are worthless. Worse than worthless they are a drain.
Let those worthless shit holes try to support themselves without blue states handouts.
I would gladly pay higher state taxes to not have to pay federal taxes right now.
Make it income tax rather than sales tax, and I’m in. I live in a state that sends more to the federal government than we get back, so this would likely be a lower overall tax amount for me.
One million percent agree. Would gladly vote for anyone running on this platform.
I hope every state does this, not sure what Trump’s reaction will be but also hope anti-immigration people don’t take law into own hands.
not sure what Trump’s reaction will be
probably remove funding on random stuff
Tariffs! Mor Terriiiffffssssss!
I would laugh my ass off if Donald Trump tried to institute a federal tariff on goods imported from California …
Extra funny because a lot of stuff comes in from the ports of LA and San Fransisco.
Wouldn’t be surprised. Didn’t he try to levy a tariff against Hasbro?
There are some bullshit earlier in the year about Donald Trump versus Barbie, but I thought Barbie was a pMattel product? I don’t really remember there’s so much BS going on that I can’t keep track of it all now.
Hasbro and Mattel made a cross licensing agreement in the beginning of this year, so probably a Hasbro product with Mattel licensing or something.
I have never once thought that the Barbie toy manufacturers would be relevant in American politics but I guess my 3rd grade teacher was right - Girls who play with Barbies can be a part of local governance…
California pays more in taxes than they use federal funding. Going after their pocketbook will only hurt the feds
Trump: “no give, only take” - probably
Tarrifs on California
Uh, what? You try to kidnap my family and i am 100% taking the law into my own hands, immedietely.
Pop pop, pigiggity pop pop. I don’t give a fuck if you a motherfucking cop.

Not talking about response to kidnapping, talking about the Pro-Maga response to cooperation with ICE being stopped by local governments.
Ah i see, my bad.
I keep telling people since before the election, one of the final steps in Project 2025 before completely destroying democracy is issuing Martial Law.
How is it not blatantly clear that Trump is there to wreck the economy and create civil chaos? Trump is the best thing that could have happened for Putin
Putin has never invaded LA. Trump has.
Same picture
Trump is just Putin’s muscle.
Why does any blue state have a contract with ICE?
Why wouldn’t they? Trump’s border czar and Project 2025 contributor Tom Homan was literally an Obama pick to run ICE.
Biden prided himself in having more deportations than Trump during his first term.
Both US parties are racist and classist af. The Dems just coat it with more pretense
Not sure about the outcome but the intent seemed to be to get ICE to play ball and hold people locally where they could get help and see family. Now ICE will have to take their ball (innocent people) and bring it back home (El Salvador)
My guess would be bribery.
The headline says contract, the article says partnership.
the decision to end the agreement DHS and ICE was “not made lightly.”
What the fuck even is grammar
I bet “end the agreement with DHS and ICE” is what they were going for. Fire the editor.
