Virginia AG Launches Office To Protect Illegals And Bureaucrats From Federal Accountability
2026-08-28
[The Federalist] On the same day Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced a successful operation to arrest more than 1,300 illegal aliens throughout Virginia and Maryland, Virginia Attorney General Jay Jones launched a legal team to stop federal activity in the commonwealth.

Jones’ "Legal Unit to Confront Unprecedented Trump Administration Overreach" covers more than just immigration enforcement, and will insert itself into issues including "federal funding, elections, healthcare, immigration, environmental protections, consumer issues, constitutional rights, tariffs and other economic policies, and the continuing fallout from DOGE’s cuts to the federal workforce.

"Virginia is a major hub of federal workers, with its northern region bordering Washington, D.C., and it houses the Department of War, CIA, TSA, and many more federal agencies. Many of those permanent, unaccountable bureaucrats become important constituents for Democrats and often help them carry the state.
