Rand Paul Has a Warning for Denver Mayor Who Vowed to Block Trump's Deportation Plan

President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to carry out the largest mass deportation operation in history, revealing recently that he plans to declare an emergency over the illegal immigration crisis in order to use the military. It’s going to get messy very soon, as the ACLU and other organizations are starting to mount legal challenges to the incoming administration’s plans, while some Democrat state leaders have also vowed to resist any efforts to remove illegal immigrants from their population. So far, border czar Tom Homan seems unfazed and said they’ll simply fly the illegal immigrants out of their state to detain them as they begin the process of removal. But those Democrat leaders may want to think twice about resisting deportation efforts. 

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) issued a warning to the mayor of Denver, Mike Johnston, who vowed to oppose Trump’s deportation plans, saying he’ll use police and tens of thousands of residents to shield the illegal immigrant population, calling it a “Tiananmen Square moment.”

“I would say that the mayor of Denver, if he’s going to resist federal law, which there’s a long standing, standing history of the supremacy of federal law, he’s going to resist that. It will go all the way to the Supreme Court,” Paul told “Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan. “And I would suspect that he would be removed from office. I don’t know whether or not that would be a criminal prosecution for someone resisting federal law. But he will lose. And people need to realize that what he is offering is a form of insurrection where the states resist the federal government. Most people objected to that and rejected that long ago. So I think the mayor of Denver is on the wrong side of history and really, I think will face legal ramifications if he doesn’t obey the federal law.”
