Dr. Kelli Ward (R), Former Arizona State Senator, & candidate For U.S. Senate running against Senator Jeff Flake called into the Todd Starnes Show to talk about republicans refusing to stand by President Trump and why they need to get their act together and support President Trump's America first agenda. Dr. Ward took Senator Flake to task over his NY Times op-ed "Jeff Flake: We Need Immigrants With Skills. But Working Hard Is a Skill." by comparing his stance on immigration to former Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush. Ward also spoke about why she hopes Sheriff Arpaio is pardoned by President Trump and her hope that tonight's Presidential rally in Arizona isn't interrupted by radical protests

Kelli Ward on Senator Flake saying we need immigrants with skills

(WARD) Well it was pretty stunning when it yeah his book followed by the op-ed basically talking about how it's practically fine to break the law, that we need to import low skilled immigrants with strong backs so that they can provide cheap labor and you know I just think you know the more I hear him talk he's repeating democrat talking point again and again and again.

Kelli Ward on Senator Flake calling illegals are American's by choice who are inspiring.

(WARD) Well it is sad it almost sounds like a Jeb! and his thought that people who are coming here are just doing it out of love. There are plenty of people who cross our border every single month every single week who are coming here to do us harm. There are people who want to come here to better their lives and the ones who come the right way you understand there is a right path to come to this country should be able to prosper whenever they come but people who come the wrong way who sneak into our country should expect consequences not reward.

Kelli Ward on if Sheriff Joe Arpaio should be pardoned by President Trump

(WARD) I do I agree with congressman Franks with congressman Biggs with congressman Gosar, they've all come out in support of stopping the politically motivated use of our judicial system against political enemies. We saw it under the Obama administration to an extent like I have never seen and I'm glad that we have a law and order president in the white house now and so you know I'm interested to see. I hope that it Sheriff Arpaio wins his appeal case and he won't need a pardon and I hope he wins on appeal because he's been a champion just like you said of securing the border stopping illegal immigration and doing the job that the federal government refused to do so I hope I hope everything ends well for Sherriff Arpaio.

Kelli Ward on potential protests of President Trump's rally in Arizona tonight

(WARD) I hope that we learned our life in Charlottesville and that people who want to come and express their opinion and utilize their first amendment right to free speech no matter if it's offensive to me or to you, to come out and do that peacefully. remember that hatred bigotry and violence have no place in our society just like the President said and i think the phoenix believe are going to be out in full force i think most of the people that are going to come or are going to be supporters of the president. I think there will be factions that are anti Donald trump in their part of the resist movement and the indivisible and I think the police are going to be ready they're going to root out those few bad apples who might insight violence and we are going to have a great day here in Phoenix welcoming our President to our state. One of the things that really bothers me about that is I know that there are families who want to bring their children to see the President of the United States in person. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for many people and I don't want a few violent people extremists to ruin that for those people.

Kelli Ward: Senator Flake's Views On Illegal Immigration Sound Like Jeb! - FOX News Radio (blog)

A dispute over illegal immigration has turned ugly in Westchester, with a leader of the Board of Legislators accusing County Executive Rob Astorino of acting like a Nazi.

Majority Leader Catherine Borgia (D-Ossining) took issue with comments Astorino made while vetoing a bill that would have protect undocumented immigrants from deportation.

Astorino deried the bill as a Sanctuary County plan.

Its the classic `Big Lie technique. All clever Nazis use it, Borgia said in an Aug. 16 email obtained by The Post.

In the email, Borgia was looking for votes to override Astorinos veto.

The legislation would have blocked county police and other local officials from communicating with federal authorities solely on civil immigration matters.

It came on the heels of President Trump and US Attorney Jeff Sessions push to deport illegal immigrants.

Supporters insist the measure complies with federal law and argue that county law enforcement officials should not act as immigration officials.

But Astorino, a Republican, said such a law would hinder law enforcement and jeopardize the countys federal funding.

Astorino said the bill endangers public safety, violates federal law, infringes upon long-established principles of law enforcement cooperation and jeopardizes millions in federal public safety grants.

While he said hes working on an executive order to ease fears of undocumented immigrants that they will be deported if they report crimes or seek medical assistance, all bets are off for those who are arrested for crimes.

If you end up in jail for committing a crime, and youre not here legally, were not providing a sanctuary for you, Astorino said.

Borgia defended her comments when contacted by The Post.

Perhaps I should have been more clear: the `big lie was a classic propaganda technique used very successfully by the Nazis, she said. This is in no way a sanctuary county bill, as it fully complies with federal law. You can call something by the wrong name again and again and again but that does not make it more accurate. My dog is not a cat, even if I feed him catnip and call him `kitty every day for 10 years.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is sounding the alarm on the growing flood of immigrants entering Canada.

"Canada is an opening and welcoming society, but let me be clear. We are also a country of laws," Trudeau said in remarks after a meeting in Montreal with Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar.

"Entering Canada irregularly is not an advantage," the prime minister doubled down. "There are rigorous immigration and customs rules that will be followed. Make no mistake."

Illegal border crossings to Canada spiked in July, reaching more than triple June's 884 crossings. Most immigrants enter through Quebec.

President Trump in January put a hold on refugees to the United States and barred travelers from several countries infected with terrorism. In the wake of the president's move, Trudeau offered assistance and asylum to refugees.

"To those fleeing persecution, terror & war, Canadians will welcome you, regardless of your faith," The prime minister tweeted. "Diversity is our strength #WelcomeToCanada."

Now, however, the prime minister is concerned about the growing number of mostly Haitian illegal immigrants leaving the U.S. in response to Trump's tough immigration policies.

"Our rules, our principles and our laws apply to everyone," Trudeau warned.

Earlier this year, Fox News reported from the Canadian border, talking to authorities about the influx of illegal crossings by those seeking refugee protections.

'A Country of Laws': Canada's Trudeau Sounds Alarm About Illegal Immigrants - Fox News Insider

The tactic would be a major step toward marrying local and federal law enforcement, a centerpiece of Mr. Trumps plan to thwart illegal immigration and one that immigrant advocates have scrambled to block at every opportunity. If enough sheriffs participated, the approach could lead to many more immigration arrests, which have already risen more than 40 percent since last year.

Since Mr. Trump was inaugurated, ICE has issued roughly 11,000 detainers a month, a 78 percent increase over the previous year. The agency declined to make data available on the number of detainers that are currently declined by sheriffs and other local departments. Even under President Barack Obama, detainers created friction between ICE and sheriffs departments because hundreds of them have policies against honoring the requests.

But the Trump administrations promises to deport more undocumented immigrants, particularly those with criminal records, have resonated with many sheriffs across the country, and the plan may serve cut through unlikely tension between the two groups. Mr. Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions have sparred repeatedly with jurisdictions that do not honor detainers, even where local officials support an immigration crackdown.

Sheriff Richard Stanek of Hennepin County, Minn., a Republican, found his jurisdiction included in ICEs periodically distributed list of places that do not honor detainers, alongside well-known sanctuary cities like Los Angeles and Chicago. The administration discontinued publishing the list after he and other sheriffs complained, but the sheriffs say the sting has been lasting.

We raised holy hell, Sheriff Stanek said. We said: Were your allies. Why are you shooting at us?

ICE issues detainers for roughly 1,000 people in his jail each year, Sheriff Stanek said, and roughly two-thirds are ultimately freed before ICE agents can arrive to arrest them.

Sheriff Stanek said he would like to honor the detainers, but would do so only if the plan was approved by the courts. We want to find a way to say yes, he said.

Sheriffs are seen as particularly important allies in immigration enforcement. They operate 85 percent of the nations jails and have ready access to the most desirable candidates for deportation: undocumented immigrants with criminal records or charges. Immigration arrests that are made in jails are also safer and require fewer resources.

ICE sends detainers to jails when it becomes aware that someone suspected of being an undocumented immigrant is being held on a criminal charge because the persons name or fingerprints match those of someone ICE has previously arrested or deported.

But since defendants can post bail or otherwise win their freedom at almost any hour, they are often released before ICE agents can arrive to take them to immigration detention centers. To address that, detainers ask that these people be held for up to an additional 48 hours.

The practice has raised a number of legal issues, many of which hinge on that crucial period. Under federal law, sheriffs cannot make immigration arrests because they are civil in nature, and sheriffs enforce criminal law. As a result, judges have found that jailing people during that gap constitutes an unlawful seizure, in violation of the Fourth Amendment.

Under the proposed legal tactic, ICE and the sheriff would sign a contract that pays the sheriffs department a daily fee to hold the immigrant until ICE can take the person into custody. The legal argument is that the arrangement effectively makes the immigrant a detainee of ICE, not the sheriffs department, and allows the sheriff to hold the person on a noncriminal charge.

Its a seamless transition, said Sheriff Bob Gualtieri of Pinellas County, Fla. They are immediately in ICE custody. And what ICE does with them, thats up to ICE. Thats not our business.

It was Sheriff Gualtieri, who is also a lawyer, who devised the reasoning behind the new tactic and presented it to ICE.

He unveiled the plan in a presentation to the National Sheriffs Association at its annual convention in June. Several sheriffs who were present described the reaction as one of excitement and relief.

Sheriff Gualtieri, as well as Sheriff Stanek, Sheriff Mark Dannels of Cochise County, Ariz., and Sheriff Greg Champagne of St. Charles Parish, La., who was president of the National Sheriffs Association when the discussions began, have all traveled to Washington or corresponded with the Trump administration to discuss the new approach.

Sheriff Gualtieri said ICE officials had told him that the plan would begin with a pilot program in Florida, and be expanded nationwide eventually. Although the sheriffs said it was expected to be announced after Labor Day, the ICE spokeswoman, Sarah Rodriguez, said, ICE continues to explore a variety of options that address the concerns of our sheriff partners when honoring ICE detainers.

Lawyers who have fought cases involving detainers question whether the courts would approve of the plan.

Its a kind of window dressing on the same practice, said Omar Jadwat, the director of the American Civil Liberties Unions immigrants rights project. It doesnt really change the legal analysis.

Mr. Jadwat and other advocates raised concerns that the plan would be a return to the days when local law enforcement and the immigration authorities worked hand in glove, sometimes leading to overzealous policing and racial profiling.

I do fear that, particularly in localities that dont have laws in place limiting this practice, that youre going to have sheriffs who are going to see the dollar signs and feel that maybe this is lawful to do ICEs bidding, said Mark Fleming, a lawyer for the National Immigrant Justice Center in Chicago.

Some states have policies or court rulings that could stop sheriffs from signing up under the proposed plan. The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ruled last month that local law enforcement officials did not have the authority to comply with ICE detainers. Gov. Charlie Baker, a Republican, quickly proposed legislation that would provide authority in cases where detainees were charged with serious crimes.

Gov. Bruce Rauner of Illinois, a Republican, is under pressure from advocates for immigrants to sign a bill passed by the legislature that would severely limit the ability of law enforcement agencies to honor detainers. Similar laws are in place in California and Connecticut.

Sheriffs who honor detainers continue to face consequences in court. Last month, a Virginia judge ordered the state to pay more than $20,000 in damages and legal fees because an undocumented immigrant was held beyond his scheduled release date on a drunken-driving charge.

Even in the face of scrutiny, many sheriffs say that they are desperate for a legal means to honor detainers, and that ignoring the requests is not just a moral complication but a political one. After the sheriffs office in Newport News, Va., was listed on the report of declined detainers, Sheriff Gabriel Morgan was flooded with phone calls and emails from constituents who demanded to know why he was not cooperating with ICE.

Youre giving me a detainer thats not worth the paper its written on in my courts, he said. Then you are trying to say Im not looking out for public safety.

Well, Sheriff Morgan said, thats problematic.
