Mullin: If CBP Isn’t Funded, I’ll Have to Make ‘Hard’ Choices on Ending Customs for Sanctuaries

DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin just dropped a bombshell on Fox News' Special Report, warning that if Congress doesn't fully fund Customs and Border Protection (CBP), he'll have no choice but to make hard decisions—like yanking customs processing from international airports in sanctuary cities. Mullin's not mincing words: Democrats pushing to defund CBP are playing with fire, potentially leaving blue-city hubs like those in San Francisco, New York, or Chicago without the federal muscle to handle inbound travelers. This isn't just bureaucratic brinkmanship; it's a direct shot across the bow at jurisdictions that have thumbed their noses at federal immigration enforcement, prioritizing open borders over public safety. Digging deeper, this ties straight into the 2A fight because sanctuary policies aren't isolated to illegals—they're a symptom of the same anti-law-enforcement rot that targets gun owners. These cities already harbor criminals who flood streets with illegal firearms, bypassing federal background checks via smuggling routes that CBP is supposed to choke off. Imagine the chaos if Mullin's threat becomes reality: airports grinding to a halt, stranding international flights and forcing a rethink of sanctuary arrogance. For the gun community, it's a win-win implication—stronger borders mean fewer cartel guns pouring in, bolstering arguments for robust Second Amendment protections against the gun violence epidemic excuse peddled by the left. Mullin's move pressures Dems to fund the wall (literal and figurative) or watch their pet policies implode, reminding us that real border security is the ultimate force multiplier for law-abiding carriers everywhere. The ripple effects? Pro-2A patriots should cheer this as leverage in the funding battles ahead. If sanctuary airports lose customs, expect a surge in local sheriffs stepping up—many of whom are 2A stalwarts refusing to enforce gun-grabber laws. It's poetic justice: defund the feds, and watch states' rights (the good kind) fill the void. Keep an eye on this; Mullin's hard choices could be the catalyst for a broader crackdown on sanctuary nonsense, securing our borders and our rights in one fell swoop. Stay vigilant, America—your Second Amendment depends on it.
