Journalist Reveals What Previous Man United Bosses Have Told Him About Marcus RashfordRepublican Mayor Bill Wells of El Cajon is setting the stage for a resistance against the “resistance state,” pledging to help President-elect Donald Trump with his mass deportation campaign. The mayor of one of California’s most significant Middle Eastern communities , where nearly a third of residents are foreign born, Wells is weighing whether to order his police department to cooperate with the feds – potentially in violation of state law. His stance could set El Cajon up for a showdown with state and federal authorities over the enforcement of immigration laws. In a recent interview with inewsource , Wells said he’ll tell the feds, “I believe what you’re (the Trump administration) doing is right. Let me help you, but you gotta cover me. You’ve gotta give me a way that I don’t damage my city, damage my police department.” Wells made illegal immigration a focus of his most recent congressional campaign. After losing his bid, he’s taken his message to social media and other platforms, voicing support for Trump’s immigration agenda and attacking California’s “sanctuary” law, which limits how state and local authorities cooperate with the feds on immigration enforcement. Wells told inewsource he wants to “comply with the law every way that I possibly can” and says he’s looking into what police can do legally to help the feds under SB 54. He doesn’t want his city or police department to face consequences, but if the federal government asks for his help, he may be willing to violate the law, he said. Meanwhile, state and federal officials are already weighing in with their own threats. Tom Homan, Trump’s incoming “border czar,” has threatened to cut federal funding to states with sanctuary policies if they don’t cooperate. California Attorney General Rob Bonta warned his office would “step in” if law enforcement agencies violate SB 54, though he didn’t specify what exactly his office would do. On X this week , Bonta asked the public to report to his office anyone believed to be illegally assisting immigration authorities. “California (Department of Justice) is here to protect immigrants’ safety, freedom and rights,” Bonta said. SB 54, passed by the state’s Democratic majority during Trump’s first term, generally prevents state and local law enforcement from using resources and personnel for immigration enforcement. But the law has some exceptions when it concerns immigrants without legal status who have been convicted of serious or violent crimes. The law has faced several legal challenges, including from the previous Trump administration, but none have succeeded. The mayor’s public attacks on SB 54 are ramping up. In recent days, Wells has appeared on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends,” Fox 5 San Diego and twice on One America News to denounce the law. Breitbart covered his TV appearances. He was interviewed on the topic by Nick Shirley, a social media influencer with 80,000 followers on Instagram. Most of Wells’ recent social media posts have been dedicated to attacking SB 54. “Sanctuary City Policies Are Stupid and Dangerous!” he said last month on X. “We refuse to let criminals roam free in our communities because of Gavin Newsom’s radical grandstanding. Sanctuary policies are a direct threat to public safety, and in El Cajon, we’re taking a stand.” Wells has repeatedly claimed that “California is threatening” police officers with criminal charges and loss of their pensions for cooperating with immigration authorities, and that officers could be liable in civil court. But Attorney General Rob Bonta’s office said SB 54 does not make officers who violate the law liable in criminal or civil court. Bonta responded to Wells’ claims on X, calling them “false and dangerous.” “The California Values Act in no way prevents law enforcement from doing their job—fighting crime and protecting communities,” he said. El Cajon’s incoming police chief, Jeremiah Larson, said after reviewing the topic with city staff, “we do not believe California is threatening felony charges for violations of SB 54.” Larson said the department has adhered to SB 54, and that its mission remains the same. “Someone who commits a crime in El Cajon will be arrested and held accountable under the law. Similarly, if someone is a victim of a crime in El Cajon, we are committed to providing them with the highest level of service and support, regardless of their immigration status,” Larson said in an emailed statement through a spokesperson. Contrary to Wells’ claims, SB 54 allows law enforcement to cooperate with immigration authorities when laws other than immigration rules have been broken. It does not stop police from investigating, arresting or detaining immigrants, or anyone, suspected of committing a crime – as long as it’s a crime other than a violation of immigration law, according to the attorney general’s office. The law also allows for joint task forces to investigate crimes such as drug trafficking, and El Cajon police participated in three such task forces in 2023. The law does restrict how sheriffs respond to certain requests from Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE. Sheriffs cannot hold detainees past their release date for ICE. They also cannot share information about detainees’ release dates, or transfer them to ICE, except detainees with serious or violent felony convictions. Critics say the law makes it harder for the feds to deport those with criminal records and makes communities less safe. Proponents say it encourages immigrants who would otherwise avoid police for fear of deportation to report crimes and cooperate in investigations. They also say it appropriately puts immigration enforcement solely into the hands of immigration authorities. We have launched our year-end campaign. Our goal: Raise $50,000 by Dec. 31.

But the feds likely can’t carry out Trump’s deportation plans with current capacity and could end up needing help from local police . The Trump administration has suggested it would deport 1 million people a year in office , almost three times the 1.5 million he deported in his first four years. Nationally, public opinion surveys say he should have some support. An Ipsos poll from September found that slightly more than half of Americans support mass deportations. Another survey by Data For Progress found a majority of respondents supported deportations only for immigrants who recently crossed the border illegally and those with criminal records. In California, some communities are working to resist Trump’s plans by shoring up protections for immigrants. The Los Angeles City Council voted last month to make the city a sanctuary community. Gov. Gavin Newsom called a special session to “Trump-proof” the state’s progressive policies, including those protecting immigrants. Ira Mehlman, media director with the Federation of American Immigration Reform, which advocates for stricter immigration enforcement, criticized those moves from Democratic leaders, saying they misread what state voters want. Mehlman said California’s rightward shift on the ballot this November – and voters’ approval of a ballot measure to heighten penalties for shoplifting, among other crimes – means the public doesn’t support efforts to protect immigrants living in the U.S. unlawfully. Wells said his constituents in El Cajon support his plan to aid in Trump’s deportation campaign. Though a majority of voters in San Diego County and California voted for the Democratic presidential candidate, Wells said “the country was very clear on this issue.” And so, he said, he’ll follow their lead: “I’m prepared to do whatever the federal government asks me to do and so I’ll be cooperative with them everywhere I can.” He’s not alone. Republican governors in Texas, Utah and Florida have also pledged support for the president-elect’s deportation plans. Since Wells announced his bid for Congress in 2023 – he ran twice before unsuccessfully – illegal immigration and the border has been a prominent talking point on his social media platforms. His rhetoric at times has warned of grave danger . Wells said in his campaign that many immigrants in the country are violent criminals and warned that if something doesn’t change, “a lot of us are going to lose our lives.” Asked for specific examples of crimes impacting El Cajon, he said he’d have to get back to inewsource . Wells did say that migrants have strained El Cajon resources. El Cajon was one of several communities in the county where migrants were dropped off by immigration authorities after being processed at the height of record migrant crossings in recent years. Wells’ public campaign against SB 54 will likely have company in the form of new legal challenges, according to Amada Armenta, director of the UC Los Angeles Latino Policy and Politics Institute. “But I also expect that these policies will stand up,” Armenta said.

Thanksgiving Travel Latest: Airport strikes, staffing and weather could impact holiday travelersOne of the country’s largest health insurers reversed a change in policy Thursday after widespread outcry, saying it would not tie payments in some states to the length of time a patient went under anesthesia. Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield said in a statement that its decision to backpedal resulted from “significant widespread misinformation” about the policy. “To be clear, it never was and never will be the policy of Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield to not pay for medically necessary anesthesia services,” the statement said. “The proposed update to the policy was only designed to clarify the appropriateness of anesthesia consistent with well-established clinical guidelines.” Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield would have used “physician work time values,” which is published by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, as the metric for anesthesia limits; maternity patients and patients under the age of 22 were exempt. But Dr. Jonathan Gal, economics committee chair of the American Society for Anesthesiologists, said it’s unclear how CMS derives those values. In mid-November, called on Anthem to “reverse the proposal immediately,” saying in a news release that the policy would have taken effect in February in New York, Connecticut and Missouri. It’s not clear how many states in total would have been affected, as notices also were and . People across the country registered their concerns and complaints on social media, and encouraged people in affected states to call their legislators. Some people noted that the policy could prevent patients from getting overcharged. Gal said the policy change would have been unprecedented, ignored the “nuanced, unpredictable human element” of surgery and was a clear “money grab.” “It’s incomprehensible how a health insurance company could so blatantly continue to prioritize their profits over safe patient care,” he said. “If Anthem is, in fact, rescinding the policy, we’re delighted that they came to their senses.” Prior to Anthem’s announcement Thursday, Connecticut comptroller Sean Scanlon said the “concerning” policy wouldn’t affect the state after conversations with the insurance company. And New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said in an emailed statement Thursday that her office had also successfully intervened. The insurance giant’s policy change came one day after , another major insurance company, was shot and killed in New York City.
