Every citizen has the right to be protected by federal law, and when politicians in California break those laws, they violate the constitutional rights of their citizens.

Translation: California is now in the same position as Arkansas, Mississippi and Alabama when they defied the Supreme Court on desegregating the schools. Ike sent in the 101st Airborne Division in addition to federalizing the Arkansas National Guard, and JFK federalized the national guards of the other two states. Federal marshals may be tasked to take California politicians into custody.

My message to communities under siege from drugs and gangs and violence is, You can stop this, and you can stop it cold. Partner with the federal government so we can help to remove these threats from your communities and restore peace to our streets.

Translation: Local communities can defy the California state government with federal backing. If California state law enforcement attempts to take county and local officials into custody over violating the state's unconstitutional actions, state law enforcement can expect to be challenged by federal marshals backing county and local officials. This may lead to firefights, but if that happens, California will finally have its Fort Sumter moment.

There are precedents left over from the Civil War that could turn California into a "military district" ruled by the Army. The state would lose its congressional delegation and its ability to participate in federal elections. It would then have to apply for readmission to the Union by writing a new state constitution acceptable to Congress.
