Sheriffs, haven't you heard? First Felon Donald Trump always stiffs his contractors.


HeadlineNew York Times, 2/12/2025

President Trump and his team are looking to state and local law enforcement to help them arrest and deport foreigners who are in the country without authorization. Many of the nation's sheriffs have responded with enthusiasm
They are thrilled to work with the Trump administration, they said, and to once again “have a seat at the table” after four years of what they have described as being ignored by the Biden administration. 
But the sheriffs say they need something in return: money, and lots of it, to cover the cost of what it will take to refocus scant local resources on what is inherently a federal responsibility
