It's generally illegal* for the federal government to punish local governments for not enforcing federal law in this manner. It is not their obligation, and so you can't tie money to that. And it would be especially ****** to withhold federal funds from a state that is a net positive on federal finances. I can maybe see withholding from leaches.

This is a good check/balance on the feds.

*Congress can attach some conditions to some funding, but only within constitutional limits

considering I want the whole system of federal government refunding states money they took from the citizens ended, I am not too worried about it being allowed. I don't care if ending it is tied to the enforcing federal laws.

and they have worked out issues before, the interstates and speed limits are a great example of carrot and stick.

It's not illegal at all....the fed government often has threatened or have withheld funds for not enforcing federal laws...from minimum drinking ages to CMS funding of hospitals, to school funding.

Didn't the "national" speed limit back in the day rely on threats of federal withholding of funds to push compliance?

I'm not sure that standing around handing out water bottles is "contrary to the narrative" lol

But of course you know that ICE isn’t at Airports to do the TSA worker job. They are there to free them up to help so the TSA worker can do their job. TSA has been having to other things at Airports till ICE started helping.

If handing out water was such an emergency (it's not) that TSA workers were doing that instead of their actual jobs (they weren't), then TSA could simply set out a container with a bunch of mini water bottles. You don't need 5 paid ICE agents to do that; you don't even need one single person.

I understand that if ICE is interacting people showing that they aren’t these terrible human being it hurts your Democrat narrative of ICE. If ICE getting paid what would you them do then. I would guess you definitely don’t want them rounding up Illegals. You already cried about that.

Now ICE is cheerleaders for morale via passing out water while they're the reason TSA isn't funded in the first place, very helpful 😂 😂 😂

Why not at polling places. I mean, illegal immigrants can’t vote right?
What POSSIBLE reason could the democrats have for not wanting immigration enforcement at polling stations????
Makes one wonder doesn’t it? 🤔

Same reason cops can't be at polling places. Does that make you wonder as well or are you literate enough to figure it out? 🤔

Because it's a complete waste of resources and money. They have no business in airports or precincts

Why shouldn’t cops be at polling places? Seems like any place where a large crowd gathers could use extra security.
I mean, Iranian terror cells would find those a tempting target. I would like to be safe while voting.
