The Supreme Court’s 9-0 ruling today makes clear that the people who decide who’ll be President are the American Voters. I commend their actions.

Our own Maryland Democrat Secretary of State, Susan Lee, had a similar decision and she decided to post both Haley and Trump on the Primary ballot. That was the right thing.

I’m glad most officials wish to give the voters the final say, it bodes well for Democracy.

Our esteemed Montgomery County Councilmember Will Jawando is proposing another bill to allow folks stopped by the police to just drive away and refuse to have the car searched if the cops feel there is a cause. This is one of a string of proposals he's made to disrespect police and hinder them from doing their work.

Marc Elrich’s Executive Order tied the hands of law enforcement. In 2019, County Executive Marc Elrich signed an executive order prohibiting local law enforcement from cooperating with federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Soon thereafter, we organized and hundreds showed up in a protest led by Larry O’Connor and Vince Coglianese of WMAL, Sebastian Gorka, Michelle Malkin and families of MCPD officers killed by convicted felons who were illegally in the United States. MCPD officers faced away from us to protect us as County officials and those they hired lined up across the street.

Policies have consequences. WJLA reports that so far this year Montgomery County has failed to honor 119 detainers and it is only February. Recently, reporter Brad Bell accompanied ICE agents as they attempted to arrest a non-citizen, convicted felon who had been the subject of an ICE detainer for deportation but was released from a local jail after 18 months.
