‘Control the Purse Strings': Opponents Plot to Stop Sanctuary Cities
Does the murder of Kate Steinle spell the end of sanctuary cities in the United States?Lou Barletta hopes so.
Barletta, a Republican congressman from Pennsylvania, said Wednesday at a National Press Club event in Washington, D.C., that Congress has the power to end sanctuary cities.
“We control the money, and if we really want to stop sanctuary cities, the law has to be tough, and it has to be meaningful,” Barletta said. “What does it take until we finally stand up and protect the American people?”
Steinle, 32, was shot to death recently in San Francisco. Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez, an illegal immigrant who had been deported five times and was in the country because of the city’s sanctuary policy, is being held in the killing.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement had detained Lopez-Sanchez earlier this year, but he was handed over to the city of San Francisco on drug charges. The city then released him without notifying the federal agency because of its sanctuary policy.
To address this, Barletta has introduced the...

Trump Supporters Cut Up Macy's Credit Cards After Store Severs Ties...
Supporters of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump are cutting up their Macy's store credit cards in protest of the department store's decision to sever ties with the real estate mogul.
Trump Tweeted about it on July 10, and several news reports have followed.
And don't forget this epic tweet from Mike Miles:
A Daily Mail story reports that about 30,000 customers have called the store to complain in the wake of the store's decision to stop selling Trump's clothing line. Trump's comments about immigration spurred the decision.
A quick spin through Macy's Facebook page revealed several messages from customers promising to boycott the store and cut up their store credit cards.
In his campaign announcement speech on June 16, Trump called out illegal immigrants coming from Mexico — and angered many people in doing so.
"When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. ... They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems to us," said Trump, who defended his comments last week. "They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some...

U.S. Will Teach Iran to Thwart Nuke Threats
Iran: ‘All our goals materialized’ under dealThe United States and other world powers will help to teach Iran how to thwart and detect threats to its nuclear program, according to the parameters of a deal reached Tuesday to rein in Iran’s contested nuclear program.
Under the terms of a deal that provides Iran billions of dollars in sanctions relief, Iran and global powers will cooperate to help teach Iran how to manage its nuclear infrastructure, which will largely remain in tact under the deal.
Senior Iranian officials, including the country’s president, celebrated the deal as a victory for the country. Iran’s state controlled media quoted President Hassan Rouhani as saying that the deal will “remove all sanctions while maintaining [Tehran’s] nuclear program and nuclear progress.”
In what is being viewed as a new development, European countries and potentially the United States agreed to “cooperate with Iran on the implementation of nuclear security guidelines and best practices,” according to a copy of the agreement furnished by both the Russians and Iranians.
This will include “training courses and workshops to strengthen Iran’s ability to prevent, protect and respond to nuclear security threats to nuclear facilities and systems as well as to enable effective and sustainable nuclear security and physical protection systems,” according to the text.
Additional “training and workshops” would work to “strengthen Iran’s ability to ...
