Sanctuary Cities Gear Up to Resist Trump's Deportation Agenda

Sanctuary cities across the U.S. are preparing to resist the Trump administration's anticipated mass deportation plans, with local leaders like Denver's mayor expressing willingness to protest and even face jail time. Trump's team, including "border czar" Tom Homan, has threatened to withhold federal funds and arrest non-compliant local officials. Cities like Los Angeles and Chicago are strengthening their defenses and organizing community training to counteract federal immigration enforcement. Trump's proposed use of the military for deportations raises legal concerns, while his administration may seek congressional support to penalize non-cooperative cities.
