“They are tired of supporting illegal aliens and they are tired of hearing their politicians demonize law enforcement and ignore their needs,” Smith explained.
Democrats Choose Illegals Over Law and Order
This isn’t a coincidence. It’s a pattern.
In every deep-blue city, Democrat leaders are gutting police budgets while rewarding those who broke America’s immigration laws. To them, cops are villains and illegal aliens are political currency.
Chicago residents have had enough. At a City Council meeting last December, one woman spoke for millions of fed-up taxpayers when she said:
“I got a great way what we can do with this budget. First, let’s start with cutting off illegals getting free everything, free housing, free schooling, free food. Yeah, let’s start with that. That’ll save us a lot of money.”
But her message fell on deaf ears.
Mayor Brandon Johnson is still showering illegal aliens with benefits while forcing the city’s police superintendent to slash nearly $100 million from his department’s budget.
No wonder cops are packing up and leaving for communities that actually respect them.
Trump Restores Law and Order — and Democrats Panic
President Donald Trump wasted no time putting America’s law enforcement back in charge.
From Day One, his administration made securing the border and enforcing immigration law a top priority.
One of his most powerful moves was reviving the 287(g) program — a partnership that allows local police to assist federal immigration enforcement.
Under Trump, the program expanded rapidly, giving willing departments the tools they need to identify, detain, and help remove illegal immigrants who commit crimes.
He even ordered the Department of Homeland Security to use the program “to the maximum extent permitted by law” on his first day back in office.
But, as expected, Democrat mayors revolted.
Officials in cities like Minneapolis and Omaha announced they’d refuse to help ICE. Washington, D.C., under Mayor Muriel Bowser, tried to play both sides — cooperating when it suited them, then backtracking once Trump federalized the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department to restore order.
When Bowser tried to limit ICE cooperation again, Trump reportedly threatened to federalize the department a second time.
Cops Deserve Better — and They Know It
Sergeant Smith says the answer is simple — stop wasting billions on illegal aliens and invest in the police who protect Americans.
“Our government system was not designed to be able to support millions of people from other countries, especially at a time when we have so many people who are citizens of the United States and are really in need of assistance,” Smith said.
According to the National Police Association, nine out of ten police departments nationwide are facing staffing shortages. The “defund the police” movement that Democrats championed didn’t just damage morale — it gutted departments across the nation.
Now crime is exploding, recruitment is collapsing, and cities are scrambling to reverse years of reckless policies. But it’s too late.
Good cops have already moved on to places that treat them with dignity and pay them what they’re worth.
Democrats can keep pretending that endless giveaways to illegal aliens will make their cities safer. But the cops — the ones who actually see the consequences — already know the truth.
They’re walking away from the blue cities that betrayed them, leaving behind the chaos their so-called leaders created.
