A top official in the Trump administration and a group of Republican women responded on Sept. 6 after a sanctuary county tried defending its sanctuary policies following the arrests of seven illegal immigrant men for alleged rapes or sexual abuses, many involving children.
The Montgomery County Council in Maryland said that the alleged crimes “are horrendously vile acts” but claimed “there has been a lot inaccurate information spread by the White House, President Trump, Acting USCIS Director Ken Cuccinelli, local and national conservative news outlets and neo-Nazi sympathizers regarding our criminal justice system and its process.”
