Virginia to end sanctuary cities

 WJLA:

Governor Glenn Youngkin is working to crack down on sanctuary cities in Virginia.

Youngkin rolled out a budget amendment seeking to force counties and cities to cooperate with federal immigration officials to deport illegal immigrants who commit violent crimes.

“Today we are taking common-sense steps for no sanctuary cities in the Commonwealth of Virginia,” Youngkin said on Thursday alongside Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares, Loudoun County Sheriff Mike Chapman, and other Virginia sheriffs.

Youngkin announced if local governments adopt sanctuary policies that block or impede communication with federal immigration officials, he will seek to halt their funding from the state.

...

I hope the incoming Trump administration also cracks down on sanctuary cities around the country.  It is a necessary move to regain control of the US borders and reinstate procedures for those seeking to become US citizens.

Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
