According to a new report from the Federation for American Immigration Reform, nearly half of all Americans are now living under sanctuary policies that help protect illegal immigrants from law enforcement.

FAIR calculated that 564 states and municipalities refuse to cooperate with federal immigration authorities on some level, a number that has climbed by more than 200 since Donald Trump was sworn into office. This number is up a whopping 500 compared to where it was ten years ago, when there were only 40 sanctuaries.

Entire states such as California, Illinois and New York are now sanctuaries, as well as major cities and counties such as Fairfax, Montgomery and Prince George’s counties and the District of Columbia in the capital region, according to the list.

Combined, the sanctuaries on FAIR’s list cover 49 percent of the country’s population, The Washington Times calculated.

“This is just an astounding and a dramatic surge of sanctuary jurisdictions,” said Bob Dane, executive director at FAIR. “They’ve doubled in just two years, and if you game that out, if the exponential growth continues, it’s not going to be long before it’s accurate to say the U.S. is a sanctuary country.”

At this point in time there is no official, universal definition of what constitutes a “sanctuary,” but FAIR counted any jurisdiction that banned police or officials from inquiring about a person’s immigration status, forbids communication with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or refuses to hold deportees for pickup by ICE.

The uptick in sanctuary cities started under the Obama administration, as an average of three new sanctuaries popped up per month during the eight years he was in office. Under the current administration we’re seeing close to 16 pop up per month.

As you might expect, California has the most number of sanctuaries, sitting at 130, with 80 of those being brand new, an obvious nod to the blatant anti-Trump sentiment coming out of the West Coast.

This is not only wrong, as it violates federal law to protect our borders and by extension, our sovereignty as a nation, but it’s also dangerous.

Many of the illegals coming across the border have lengthy criminal records, having worked for various cartels and gangs. Just look at the sheer number of arrests that have happened lately involving illegals. A vast majority have a rap sheet.

Here’s the simple reality of this situation. Our nation is like the house where all of our states and local neighborhoods live. You don’t simply allow a bunch of random strangers into your home, because these individuals could have evil intentions in mind. Instead, you lock the door.

We need to lock the door of our country. That’s it. The whole issue in a nutshell. Now if only the left could grasp this.

You can tell a lot about a White House by the extracurricular nonsense that hits the press surrounding it.

For instance, after one of President Joe Biden’s dogs began biting random people on the grounds, we started hearing murmurs of just how terse and stressful the place had become, with dog behavior experts suggesting that the mood at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue might have a lot to do with the aggression.

This week, the Biden administration beget more bad behavior, but this time it wasn’t from one of the First Pets.

Two U.S. Secret Service agents in South Korea were sent stateside ahead of President Biden’s arrival following their involvement in an off-duty alcohol-related incident.

The two agents, whose identities have not been made public, are on their way back to Washington, D.C. where they will face disciplinary action, a source familiar with the matter told Fox News.

Both agents apparently became intoxicated while not on duty. One of the agents then got into an altercation with a cab driver.

There could be more trouble coming, as well.

In South Korea, officials send mediators to the scene of low-level disputes and then determine if criminal charges would be filed.

One of the agents was interviewed by authorities and no charges have been filed.

The government released one of its usual, dry, boilerplate-esque missives.

“The Secret Service is aware of an off-duty incident involving two employees which may constitute potential policy violations,” USSS chief spokesman Anthony Guglielmi told Fox News. “We have very strict protocols and policies for all employees and we hold ourselves to the highest professional standards.”

There is a history of poor behavior from the Secret Service during Democratic administrations, with a notable incident having occurred in 2012, involving Barack Obama’s agents and a Colombian prostitute.
