Ofcourse the mayor has a say- if he didn't, Miller would have nothing to respond to. As to what will happen in terms of immigrants in Los Angeles, that's another matter, but unless the law is changed, Trump will leave the post in less than 2 1/2 years and we'll see what happens at that point.

So, which is it?
Is immigration enforcement is solely a federal responsibility and local law enforcement has no real role or does state and local government and law enforcement get to decide immigration law? The Left seems to want it both ways here. They have regularly claimed the former and now are claiming the later. They don't get to change the law at a whim to suit their politics.
Seems to me that the mayor of LA is coming down on the side of supporting criminals and against law enforcement at the federal level.

I'm halfway to ignoring your retardation.
The election is more than three years away, so how do you think trump will leave office earlier than that?

You're right, for some reason I thought he'd leave office in 2028, when in truth, he leaves office at the beginning of 2029 -.- So around 3 1/2 years then.

I thought you might agree with him on this one- for a while now, there have been 2 very different currents in the U.S., which is why there is so much hatred between the left and the right. When riot police start getting called in, that's a signal that things are escalating to dangerous levels. There have actually been films recently on the prospect of a civil war in the U.S. and I wouldn't be all that surprised if it happens in reality.

Didn't hear about that, but yeah, bad idea. The FBI is more than enough in terms of federal police.

Not quite, but he clearly has authoritarian leanings.
We've come full circle. When there were protests for "police brutality" the left started trial balloons about a "national police force", the right was all, "No states' rights, man!"
Now though, there is an "anti-sanctuary city" bill that would make local police forces into federal agents and require their assistance in enforcing federal law...
Left and rightwing, together at last... I should write a book, "When the Horseshoe Meets, Does it Make a Circle?"

The mayor has a say, but she can't buck federal law. She needs to go through her Congressional reps IMO.
Add to this that Miller is pissed that his wife is banging Elon as Baby Mama #15.

They still plan to do so. It's all part of Project 2025. Getting rid of all the police complaints and investigations was a first step to buy the loyalty of the police unions.

The Big Takeover: The secret plans to give Trump command of America’s police
For months, a Project 2025 subgroup drafted plans to place domestic law enforcement under Trump's thumb. We have their files.
The purpose of that plan is to drastically restructure domestic law enforcement under the command of the president. The president would then have the machinery to target immigrants en masse and to crack down on those who oppose him....
...This reporting is based on internal Project 2025 blueprints that lay out draft proposals for the Trump administration's immigration and law enforcement agenda. The documents contain several timelines for these actions, which are set to unfold throughout this year. Through the first four months of the Trump administration, the documents have repeatedly proven prophetic, leading us to believe they are likely to continue to forecast Trump’s moves.
The mayor is a she.
It seems we have come full circle from the left "wanting to nationalize the police force" to they (some unknown few) were starting trial balloons to that effect.
Remember when the right claimed Biden was executed in 2022 and replaced with a robot?
Remember when the right claimed that Sandy Hook was a hoax?
Remember when the right claimed that Michelle Obama was a man?
And there is Damocles over there on the right.
(Blaming an entire group for the actions of a few crazies is fun when you can get away with it.)
