Los Angeles Police Department turns ICE agents away from its own jail and demands a judge signed warrant

Los Angeles Police Department turns ICE agents away from its own jail and demands a judge signed warrant "Protesters cheer as the LAPD turns away ICE agents trying to get inside." LAPD officer at the gate says you must have a warrant “signed by a federal judge — can't help you. I'm sorry." LA Mayor-elect Nithya Raman "LAPD has betrayed the trust, according to numerous reports, in sharing data with ICE, in appearing on the streets to have been protecting ICE as opposed to protecting residents." I looked into it and the reason they are allowed to do this is because ICE civil arrests use administrative warrants signed by immigration officers, not judges 
LAPD says that ICE requests like this are "not unusual — they try to do this all the time” We are not a serious country Imagine a system so corrupt that our own law enforcement officers protect ILLEGALS, people who broke into our country. The worst part is not only do they protect them, but they stand up to federal officers to make sure they aren’t arrested We really do need new leadership. None of this should be allowed to happen
