Governor Katie Hobbs In Defiance: Arizona Won’t Back President Trump’s Deportation Plans

Governor Katie Hobbs just turned Arizona’s southern border into a stage for her latest act of political theater.

And it might very well be her last act.

She’s declaring the state won’t go along with President Donald Trump’s promised mass deportation operation.

Hobbs unveiled her own new initiative, “Task Force Safe,” which deals with stopping drug trafficking.

And she’s using that as an excuse not to send enforcement to round up illegals, because she’ll need that manpower for her initiative. Talk about manipulation.

And I’m not the only one who thinks that.  Critics were quick to call it a flashy distraction.

Katie Hobbs says she will not let the federal government come in to Arizona to remove illegal migrants.

Is Katie getting some side money here and there? 🤣😂

Mass deportations are coming, Katie. Whether you like it or not.

The Gateway Pundit reports:

Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs declared that Arizona will not comply with President Trump’s promised mass deportation policies.

Katie Hobbs is once again playing political theater at the U.S.-Mexico border this week, staging what many are calling an elaborate PR stunt while simultaneously vowing to defy the Trump administration’s promised mass deportation policies.

Hobbs, who barely won the governorship in 2022 after stealing it from Kari Lake, launched her new initiative dubbed “Task Force Safe.”

Hobbs rolled out a plan that, while flashy on paper, seems more focused on optics than results.

During a press conference at the Nogales Port of Entry, Hobbs claimed her initiative has already led to the seizure of millions of fentanyl pills and other drugs, touting her commitment to border security.

She claims she’s open to working with Trump’s administration, but only if mass deportation plans are off the table—ironically, one of the most effective tools to reduce illegal crossings and protect Americans.

“Border security was a core issue of the Trump campaign,” Hobbs told reporters, according to AP.

“I look forward to having conversations with the incoming president about Arizona’s needs, including border security and the work we’ve done here to build these partnerships that are actually producing results and how we can continue those partnerships under his administration.”

[There are Arizona families who] “are worried about threats from the Trump administration as well.”

“I will not tolerate actions that harm Arizonans, that harm our communities and quite honestly, divert resources from providing real security at our border… I will stand up to protect Arizonans from harm by the federal government, from anyone.”

“Deportations tear families apart”. You know what really tears families apart? Murder.

So these immigrants, that are literally tearing families apart, have got to go.

This woman is a traitor to the citizens of the United States and ignores the will of the people.

I have a feeling she won’t be sitting in a position of power for much longer.

Hey @katiehobbs @GovernorHobbs hate to break it to you but it's happening. It's what the American people (including the citizens of Arizona) voted for. Get with it or get out of the way. Either way you'll be losing that Governors seat in the next primaries. pic.twitter.com/1Sl7d1RQig
