White House Border Czar Tom Homan sharply criticized Virginia's newly inaugurated Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D) on Thursday, accusing her of undermining federal immigration enforcement efforts by signing an executive order that curtails the state's cooperation with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Spanberger, recently likened to a "Bond villain" by Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon, issued a series of executive actions on her first day that read like a far-left wish list. This, despite portraying herself as a moderate while running for the office. One such action rescinded a prior directive from her Republican predecessor, Glenn Youngkin. Youngkin expanded collaboration among the Virginia State Police, the Department of Corrections, and ICE, allowing local officers to perform limited federal immigration duties and to facilitate the identification and deportation of individuals in custody who were subject to removal. She crumpled up that policy and tossed it in the trash within hours. And Homan is calling her out. “I’m a resident of Virginia, and Spanberger — I remember her campaign ads. ‘I’m a law enforcement officer. I rescued children from sex trafficking.’ I’ve seen the commercials,” Homan said in an interview with “Ruthless” co-host John Ashbrook. “So, first day in office, she stops being a law enforcement officer and became a politician because where’s all those commercials you did about supporting law enforcement and rescuing kids?” Campaigning as a tough-on-crime moderate, only to unleash sanctuary- style protections for illegals on day one, is certainly a choice. Homan went on to highlight the successes of the Trump administration in removing violent criminal illegal aliens from the United States, including locating "130,000 of those missing kids" lost under the Biden regime, as well as touting the recent surge in Minnesota. The border czar said he still hopes to work with Spanberger, but admitted it "doesn't look good." As such, the admin will simply have to keep flooding the zone in so-called sanctuary cities, where the "sanctuary" is exclusively felt by criminals, not by the American people. "I said it from Day 1: the thousands of agents we're bringing on - we're going to flood sanctuary cities," Homan said. "We have to because you created a problem when you released some public safety threats in the streets." “So, unfortunately, they set the stage, and we’re going to do what we’ve got to do. They’re not going to stop us. They can stand on the sidelines and watch," he chided. "Shame on them, but they’re not going to stop us from doing this mission.” President Trump appears to be on board, recently calling out Spanberger for limiting cooperation with ICE in Virginia. "Well, I hope there are no problems because if there are, she's not gonna get it corrected very easily. And, uh, that's a bad signal. You know, that's not where the country is," he said in an interview with Katie Pavlich of NewsNation. "The country doesn't wanna see murderers and drug dealers and gang members, and all coming from other countries and just stay in their area." "Take a look at Washington DC, as you know better than anybody, it was very, very unsafe a year and a half ago. Because now it's a year, so I have to go a little more than a year ago, but it was a very, very unsafe place," the President told Pavlich. "And now it's totally safe. It's a, it's a beautiful, I mean, people are walking with their kids to restaurants." Spanberger would prefer that the citizens of Virginia hide in the shadows, staying behind locked doors at home, rather than having criminal illegal aliens be a little skittish about having to be held accountable. Any Bond villain would be nodding with approval.

States have no legal obligation to cooperate or assist federal law enforcement whatsoever. Think of how the states cooperate and assist the feds in enforcing the federal pot laws. The People only granted an extremely limited element of the police power to the Federal government under Article 4, Section 4: "The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on application of the legislature, or of the executive (when the legislature cannot be convened) against domestic violence." "Against invasion" refers only to military invasion by a foreign nation. "Against domestic violence" requires a request by the state to the federal government. There has never been a national police force because none was authorized by the Constitution. The three letter agencies are a recent development purposed with limited jurisdiction to enforce specific federal laws.
This is just historically wrong. The Constitution absolutely allows federal law enforcement, and the U.S. has had a national police force since 1789. The U.S. Marshals Service was created by the First Congress in 1789, right alongside the Constitution itself. If a “national police force” were unconstitutional, the Founders wouldn’t have created one immediately. Federal law enforcement authority comes from the Commerce Clause and the Necessary and Proper Clause, not from a requirement that the Constitution list “police force” by name. The FBI, DEA, ATF, and others aren’t constitutional outliers — they’re the modern evolution of powers the federal government has exercised since the beginning. Their jurisdiction is limited to federal law, but that doesn’t mean the federal government lacks police power. It means state and federal police powers overlap, which is exactly how the system was designed. Bottom line: Federal law enforcement isn’t a “recent development” and it isn’t unconstitutional. It’s been part of the American system since day one.
scfop.org/2025/09/today-i...-the-creation-of-the-u-s- marshals-service/ Washington appointed the first 13 U.S. Marshals, one for each federal judicial district. These men carried responsibilities as broad as they were vital. They served writs, subpoenas, and warrants; managed federal jails; secured courtrooms; and enforced orders of the new federal courts. In many cases, they became the most visible representation of federal authority in the young republic. Their work provided stability, lending credibility to the rule of law at a time when the United States was still proving itself on the world stage. Guardians of Justice Through the Centuries From the earliest days, U.S. Marshals embodied the principle that law enforcement exists to ensure justice is not just written but carried out. In the 19th century, they enforced laws during turbulent times, from combating piracy to upholding court orders during civil unrest. They played a central role in enforcing the Fugitive Slave Act, a chapter that remains controversial but underscores their place at the heart of America’s most difficult struggles. Later, Marshals stood alongside civil rights activists to enforce desegregation orders in the 1960s, often facing danger and hostility in service of the law.
The offices of U.S. Marshal and Deputy Marshals were created more than 200 years ago by the first Congress in the Judiciary Act of 1789,
#6: Washington appointed the first 13 U.S. Marshals, one for each federal judicial district. #7: The offices of U.S. Marshal and Deputy Marshals were created more than 200 years ago by the first Congress in the Judiciary Act of 1789, When Washington took office, there were eleven (11) states in the Union. The Department of Justice was created in 1870. The U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) within the Department of Justice, in the Executive Branch, under the Attorney General, was created in 1969. The U.S. Marshals were created in 1789 as part of the Judicial Branch. The government agency called the U.S. Marshals Service was created in 1969 within the Executive Branch.
Important distinction: The office of U.S. Marshal → created in 1789 The U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) → created in 1969 as an administrative agency within DOJ Marshals existed for 81 years before DOJ was created. They were simply moved under DOJ when it was formed. This does not change their founding date or their constitutional status. The creation of the modern agency does not change the fact that the office itself dates back to 1789. It’s like saying: “The U.S. Army didn’t exist until the Department of Defense was created.”
