    Sheriffs Fight Back: How Blue States Are Blocking Law Enforcement from Protecting You

    Lieutenant Colonel Allen West sits down with Sheriff Michael Brockett of Curry County, New Mexico, and Sheriff Jason Mikesell of Teller County, Colorado, to discuss the growing conflict between state governments and local law enforcement over immigration enforcement. Sheriff Brockett describes how New Mexico's Attorney General put sheriffs on notice not to participate in the 287(g) program, even as bail reform sends offenders back onto the streets before paperwork is processed. Sheriff Mikesell details an eight-year battle with the ACLU and Colorado's progressive legislature, including a state-created fund that uses fines against officers to finance further lawsuits against law enforcement. The conversation covers how Colorado went from one of the lowest crime rates to one of the highest, the explosion of cartel activity after states blocked cooperation with ICE, and the constitutional implications when states refuse to follow federal law while demanding counties follow state law.

    Maryland Sheriffs Fight Back: The Law They Don't Want You to Know About

    Two veteran Maryland sheriffs with a combined 75+ years of law enforcement experience join Lt. Col. Allen West on Live Free TV to expose what's really happening in Annapolis — and why it matters for every county in America. Sheriff Scott Adams (Cecil County) and Sheriff Mike Lewis (Wicomico County) break down Maryland's Senate Bill 245 and the newly dropped Senate Bill 791 — legislation designed to dismantle the 287G program, cut off cooperation between local law enforcement and ICE, and even give illegal aliens the right to civilly sue sheriffs and detention staff. Before they even testified, lawmakers told them: "This bill is gonna pass. We want you to know that." They testified anyway. And they're not done fighting. In this episode, you'll learn: 🔹 What the 287G program actually does (and the 3 models most people don't know about) 🔹 How SB 245 and SB 791 will force ICE out of jails and into your neighborhoods 🔹 The real-world consequences — including the murder of 19-year-old Dakar Thompson 🔹 Why Maryland's attorney general is warning sheriffs about "consequences" for cooperating with federal law enforcement 🔹 What these sheriffs plan to do next — regardless of what the legislature says "What's in your backyard today will be in your front yard tomorrow." — Sheriff Mike Lewis 📌 TAKE ACTION: Contact your local and state legislators. Find out if your county has a 287G agreement. If it doesn't, ask why. If it does, fight to protect it. 🔗 Learn more about the ACRU and the Defender Initiative: https://www.theacru.org — Live Free TV is a production of the American Constitutional Rights Union (ACRU) and the ACRU Action Fund, hosted by Lt.

    No One Is Above the Law: The Constitution, ICE, and America’s Breaking Point | Live Free TV

    In the first Live Free TV broadcast of 2026, Allen West, Executive Director of the American Constitutional Rights Union, delivers a direct constitutional warning at a pivotal moment in American history.   As the nation approaches the 250th anniversary of independence, Lt. Col. West examines what happens when elected officials openly defy the Constitution, undermine federal law enforcement, and refuse to protect their states from invasion as required under Article IV, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution.   This episode breaks down: •Why the United States is a republic, not a democracy •What the Constitution actually says about federal authority and state responsibility •Why ICE exists and the laws it is sworn to enforce •How sanctuary states and cities violate both federal statute and the Supremacy Clause •The dangerous consequences of encouraging resistance to lawful enforcement   From Minneapolis to Texas, from Congress to statehouses, Lt. Col. West argues that no one—governors, mayors, members of Congress, or judges—is above the law. When ideology replaces the rule of law, the republic itself is at risk.   This episode is not about politics. It is about the Constitution, sovereignty, and whether Americans are willing to defend the system that has preserved liberty for 250 years.   📺 Live Free TV is produced by ACRU to educate, equip, and encourage Americans who believe the Constitution still matters.   🔔 Subscribe for weekly constitutional analysis 🌐 Learn more at acru.org
