BREAKING: FBI Raids Office of Prominent Immigration Lawyer, Flynn Resigns
President Trump is NOT messing around and he’s NOT wasting any time.
Just three days after his Inauguration, Federal Authorities today raided the offices of Joseph Flynn, a top immigration lawyer in Providence, RI – a noted sanctuary city.
FAFO:
It is not immediately clear what the purpose of the raid was or what charges may be related, but it is interesting that on his website Flynn proudly brags about living illegally in the USA for 15 years after arriving here from Columbia on a tourist visa.
He would later obtain lawful permanent resident status.

Local NBC10 reports that the raid may have been in process prior to President Trump’s inauguration:
Federal agents marched boxes of files out of a Providence immigration lawyer’s office Thursday afternoon, hours after their raid inside an office building on Dorrance Street began.
NBC 10 News observed agents from the FBI, Homeland Security Investigations, and the IRS go in and out of the office of Joseph Molina Flynn throughout the day.
The FBI and U.S. Attorney’s Office in Rhode Island would not say what the raid is focused on, only that it is court authorized.

It would appear the raid was in the works before Donald Trump became president and began his crack down on illegal immigration.
Molina Flynn practices several areas of law, but is known for his work on immigration.
His biography notes that he came to the U.S. as a child as an undocumented immigrant before later becoming a citizen.
Molina Flynn was also a municipal court judge in Central Falls.
The mayor’s office said Thursday he has now resigned.
