Press Sec: President Trump to Sign Executive Orders on Law and Order and Holding Sanctuary Cities Accountable for Harboring Illegal Aliens:

President Trump is expected to sign two executive orders today on enforcing law and order and directing Homeland Security and the Justice Department to begin monitoring the Democrat-run sanctuary cities that harbor criminal illegal aliens. 

The President is scheduled to sign the orders at 5 pm ET.

Per Reuters, a White House Official said, “President Trump plans to sign an executive order on Monday escalating his battle against Democratic-led states and cities that don’t fully cooperate with federal immigration authorities.”

In a press briefing this morning, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt also shared that the President will sign at least two executive orders, one to “strengthen and unleash America’s law enforcement to pursue criminals and protect innocent citizens,” and another “protecting American communities from criminal aliens.”

The sanctuary city order will ”direct the Attorney General and Secretary of Homeland Security to publish a list of state and local jurisdictions that obstruct the enforcement of federal immigration laws,” Leavitt said.
Border Czar Tom Homan and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller have indicated to The Gateway Pundit that sanctuary jurisdictions are engaging in “systemic criminal violations” and that felony charges may be coming if they continue to defy federal law.

EPIC! White House Lines Media Lawn with Signs Featuring 100 Arrested Illegal Alien Murders, Rapists, and Pedophiles...

Media members were met with a beautiful scene upon arriving at the White House on Monday morning, where the press team touted ICE arrests for 100 of the worst illegal aliens by lining the White House lawn with their mugshots and charges.

Monday’s theme, as stated in the White House Press Schedule, is “THE FIRST 100 DAYS: THE BORDER IS SECURE.”

The criminals featured on the White House signs were wanted for heinous crimes such as murder, rape, and various sex crimes against children.

The White House said in an X post, “We will hunt you down. You will face justice. You will be deported — and you will never set foot on American soil again. Oh, and your mugshot may just end up on a yard sign at the White House.”

Thank God these murderers, rapist and pedophiles got arrested. They probably thought they were going to get away with hurting innocent people. Shame on them! hope every murderer gets arrested and there will be tougher laws. 

we also need it here after a person who was "known to the police and mental health workers" rammed his car into people and killed 11 in BC. 

Criminals have their rights in North America. More should be done for the innocent.

California Democrat Lawmaker Wants to Decriminalize Welfare Fraud Under $25,000:

Welfare fraud under $25,000 in California could be decriminalized due to Senate Bill 560, which was introduced by State Sen. Lola Smallwood-Cuevas (D) in February.

This bill would delete the provision that establishes criminal penalties for an attempt to commit welfare fraud. The bill would delete criminal penalties for welfare fraud when the total amount of aid obtained or retained is above or below $950, and instead make welfare fraud when aid was obtained or retained in the total amount of $25,000 or more punishable by specified imprisonment in a county jail, by a fine, or by imprisonment and fine.

Meanwhile, California has been issuing EBT cards with a security chip to prevent thieves from targeting people who rely on benefits programs, NBC San Diego reported on March 13:

But fraud investigators who work inside California’s county welfare offices said the card probably won’t make much of a dent. They said the state should have rolled out a security chip and tap-to-pay years ago, and that these new cards still contain technology outdated by several decades.

Over the last two full calendar years, San Diego County officials say criminals stole at least $34.6 million from EBT cards. Taxpayers then paid that money again, to reimburse the needy families they targeted.

News about the bill and EBT cards comes as the Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has been targeting welfare fraud, Breitbart News reported on March 19.

In addition, President Donald Trump’s administration has also been working to keep illegal aliens from using welfare programs meant for legal residents, per Breitbart News.

And stealing.  Didn't California already say it's ok to steal from stores up to a certain amount, several years ago?

Report: State Department Revokes 4K Foreign Students’ Visas in First 100 Days of Trump’s Second Term, Most with Criminal Records:

In the first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s second term, the State Department revoked the visas of 4,000 foreign students, 90 percent of whom have criminal records, the State Department confirmed to Fox News Digital.  

“Our visa system has lacked oversight and accountability,” a senior State Department official told the outlet. “Over the past 100 days, the Trump Administration has worked to fix a broken system.”

“We established an action working group, which has resulted in thousands of visas being revoked because these individuals broke our laws. This is what effective governance looks like,” the source said. 

According to the New York Post, which first reported on the number, some serious crimes included arson, robbery, domestic abuse, wildlife and human trafficking, child endangerment, and driving under the influence. More than 500 students whose visas were revoked have criminal assault records, the Post reported.

“They came, and they were breaking the law with no consequences,” a source told the Post. “We set up a special action team to handle this.”

More recently, hundreds of visas have been revoked for international students tied to anti-Israel protests, according to the department.

“If you come into the United States as a visitor and create a ruckus for us, we don’t want it,” Rubio previously said, specifically citing international students who come to the U.S. and “vandalize a library” or “take over a campus.” 

“No one’s entitled to a student visa. The press covers student visas like there’s some sort of birthright..."

Sen. Josh Hawley Reintroduces ‘PELOSI Act’ to Ban Congress from Trading Stocks:

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) reintroduced legislation Monday during the current 119th U.S. Congress, which would ban members of Congress and their family members from being able to trade or hold stocks.

The bill, titled the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments (PELOSI) Act, would “amend chapter 131 of title 5, United States Code, to prohibit transactions involving certain financial instruments by Members of Congress,” according to the bill’s text.

The PELOSI Act, which references Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), was also reintroduced by Hawley in January 2023.

“Members of Congress should be fighting for the people they were elected to serve—not day trading at the expense of their constituents,” Hawley said in a statement. “Americans have seen politician after politician turn a profit using information not available to the general public. It’s time we ban all members of Congress from trading and holding stocks and restore Americans’ trust in our nation’s legislative body.”
