One of Mr. Trump's most vivid campaign promises was this.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

DONALD TRUMP (R), PRESIDENT-ELECT: We will end the sanctuary cities
that have resulted in so many needless deaths. Cities that refuse to
cooperate with federal authorities will not receive taxpayer
dollars.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

O'REILLY: Let me get more pointed than that. But now a number of
mayors across the country are defying the President-Elect saying,
they will not stop their sanctuary policies.

RAHM EMANUEL (D), CHICAGO MAYOR: To be clear about what Chicago is,
it always will be a sanctuary city.

BILL DE BLASIO (D), NEW YORK CITY MAYOR: You're not going to
sacrifice a half million people who live amongst us. We're not going
to tear families apart.

ED MURRAY (D), SEATTLE MAYOR: I think by continuing to be a
sanctuary city, we're doing the most American thing that we could
possibly do.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

O'REILLY: So let's analyze what's really happening here. By refusing
to obey federal immigration law, the politicians are basically
saying, we want open borders because anyone who gets in to America
illegally has a place where they can go with no repercussions. While
most migrants are law abiding people who just want to support
themselves and their families, a number of them are criminals or lay
abouts, simply here to exploit the American system. Those people
become part of the sanctuary movement as well.

Now, you will remember that the thug who allegedly murdered Kate
Steinle was released by the county of San Francisco after ICE
requested he be held in jail so the Feds could pick him up. San
Francisco let the man go despite the fact he had seven felony
convictions in America, had been deported five times. Kate Steinle
is dead because San Francisco refuses to obey federal law, period.

There is a lawsuit, civil suit, underway in the case and the
criminal proceeding is crawling along. Now, you would think any
decent politician would learn a lesson from the Steinle case but,
no. These mayors all uber liberals believe they will harvest more
votes by showing phony compassion than by promoting public safety
and fighting anarchy. If the left believes everybody should be
allowed to come in to this country, say it. Say it. But, know that
sanctuary policies will never be able to tell the good from the bad.
The chaos will continue to rule.

So it comes down to what Donald Trump will do to the mayors and
counties that defy him on immigration law. It has to do something.
And we expect the showdown will develop quickly early next year. And
that's "The Memo".

It's now time for healing, and for fixing the damage the Democrats
did to America.
