Hey idiots, "Sanctuary Cities" is pretty much just a name - not actual impactful policy. CPB and ICE operate all over WA state with no impediments.

Seatac Airport isn't even IN Seattle, and it's controlled by the Port of Seattle, not the "radical leftists" in City Hall.

Trumpists are fixated on Sanctuary Cities - because the RW echo chamber is fixated on it - how dare Liberals defy us!
