Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials announced this week that the four-day raid led to the arrest of 232 illegal immigrants in the San Francisco Bay Area. Of those 232, 180 “were either convicted criminals, had been issued a final order of removal and failed to depart the United States, or had been previously removed” from the country and had come back illegally. The arrests included 115 who "had prior felony convictions for serious or violent offenses, such as child sex crimes, weapons charges and assault, or had past convictions for significant or multiple misdemeanors." The numbers might have been greater, but for the intervention of Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf, who tweeted out a warning of the impending raid, tipping off others who might have been caught. Acting ICE Director Tom Homan said on "Fox & Friends" that Schaaf’s warning meant that there are roughly 800 illegal immigrants they were unable to locate. "What she did is no better than a gang lookout yelling 'police' when a police cruiser comes in the neighborhood, except she did it to a whole community. This is beyond the pale," he said. An ICE spokesperson gave Fox News a list of the types of crimes for which those arrested in the raid had been convicted. They cover a range of bad behavior: aggravated assault, murder, hit-run, lewd acts with a minor, burglary, cruelty toward a child, indecent exposure, domestic violence, drug trafficking, battery, sex offenses and false imprisonment. ICE pointed, in particular, to the case of Armando Nunez-Salgado, a Mexican gang member who had been deported four times and had convictions including assault with a deadly weapon, burglary, hit-and-run causing injury and evasion of a police officer. ICE ARRESTS 232 PEOPLE IN FOUR-DAY RAID OF CALIFORNIA'S BAY AREA  Another deportee was a Mexican gang member with convictions for, among other things, possession of a dangerous weapon, spousal abuse, burglary and battery on a police officer. Officials were furious with the Oakland mayor's actions to diminish the effectiveness of the raid. In a statement, ICE also said that recent legislation has hurt the agency’s ability to enforce immigration laws. “Recent legislation has negatively impacted ICE operations in California by nearly eliminating all cooperation and communication with our law enforcement partners in the state by prohibiting local law enforcement from contracting with the federal government to house detainees,” the statement said. “Ultimately, efforts by local politicians have shielded removable criminal aliens from immigration enforcement and created another magnet for more illegal immigration, all at the expense of the safety and security of the very people it purports to protect,” it said. The White House called Mayor Schaaf’s actions “outrageous” and said the Department of Justice was conducting a review. “I think it’s outrageous that a mayor would circumvent federal authorities and certainly put them in danger by making a move such as that,” White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said Thursday But Schaaf was unapologetic. "I did what I believe was right for my community as well as to protect public safety," Schaaf said Friday, according to NBC Bay Area. "People should be able to live without fear or panic and know their rights and responsibilities as well as their recourses." Fox News' Nicole Darrah contributed to this report.

Trump Beat Romney in Deep-Blue California Cities: How?

The Sacramento Bee did their exhaustive study on how well Donald Trump did in all California cities compared to Mitt Romney in 2012.

Trump did worse than Romney in a larger number of otherswise strongly Republican areas.

But in the most unlikely cities, Trump actually exceeded Romney.

Here's the metric to explain how the chart was laid out:

Now check out the cities where Trump exceeded Romney:

Let's start with the first city of note, in part because I had attended a town hall in that city last weekend:

Inglewood.

Inglewood California is a decent microcosm of the political cancer that is eating out California. The city was a wellspring of growth and development. Barry Goldwater actually won Inglewood, even though he lost the rest of the state and 46 others.

Then came the busing, the racially-charged policies of welfarism and government dependence. Crime became the norm, and “white flight” undermined the communities. A large phalanx of the Democracy began running this plantation—although Republican Gordon Hahn, uncle of Aunt Janice and former LA Mayor James Hahn—represented Inglewood in the state assembly in the early 1960s.

Democrats are the norm, and Republicans just stay quiet, if there are any. 

Yet notice that in Inglewood, Trmp did better, even though the Republican registration is abysmally low. Granted we are looking at Republican registration dipping below 10%.

But notice that the share of the vote is signficantly larger, especially for Compton. It's as though every single Republican decided to step out and vote for Trump.

Even in Oakland, Trump did slightly better.

Why?

Here are few reasons, starting with the most likely, and the moving to more speculative reasons:

1. These three cities are well-known black urban areas. The one issue which resonated with many Democratic voters was immigration. The problems with illegal immigration, the undercutting of wages and jobs, and the high crimes rates in urban areas all impact black communities disproportionately.

2. Since these liberal cities are progressive bastions pushing the Democratic Party to the left, Bernie voters in larger numbers might have voted for Trump out of pure rebellion against the Democratic nominee Crooked Hillary Clinton. A progressive Democratic voter in Colorado did the same thing, and she received a featured editorial in Politico.

3. The high crime rates, unemployment, and moral degredation have hit the community so hard, that slowly but surely they are walking off the Democratic Plantation and willing to try a Republican Presidential candidate. After all, Trump told disenfranchised voters "What do you have to lose?"

If Republicans want to win big in blue cities, they need to pay attention to the above issues--and not hold back!
