The US simply can't afford to subsidize the millions of illegal aliens currently in the US—especially since many of them are a threat to American citizens, Trump warned:

"Many of those people are murderers. They're people released from jails, prisons, mental institutions, insane asylums. They're people that are drug dealers, they're addicts."

If states and cities continue to protect people who break US immigration laws, they'll have to do so without the help of federal funding, Pres. Trump said:

"Starting Feb. 1, we're not making any payments to sanctuary cities or states having sanctuary cities because they do everything possible to protect criminals at the expense of American citizens."

While some illegal alien sanctuaries, such as California, simply refuse to assist in the enforcement of federal immigration laws, others are now going so far as to sue the administration and Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

On Monday, the State of Minnesota and cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul announced they have sued DHS in a bid to halt US Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) "Operation Metro Surge" surge into Minnesota, claiming they have been "targeted" for their pro-illegal immigration policies—and citing Pres. Trump's previous threats to cut off federal funding:

"Operation Metro Surge instead fits the Trump Administration's pattern of targeting Democratic municipalities, including Los Angeles, Portland, Chicago, and Washington-DC. Furthermore, the Trump Administration has made a habit of repeatedly and unlawfully attacking the state of Minnesota, both verbally and by attempting to illegally cut federal funding for programs the people of Minnesota rely on."

The State of Illinois and Chicago also filed a lawsuit against DHS and the Trump Administration on Monday, seeking to end federal enforcement of federal immigration law in the state and city.

As CBS News Chicago reports:

"The lawsuit asks the court to enjoin CBP from conducting civil immigration enforcement in Illinois, declare the Trump administration and DHS in violation of the Tenth Amendment, and enjoin all defendants from using the tactics and methods the state claims are illegal. It also asks the court to award reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including attorney's fees."
