Personally I’d very much like to see any governor who is jumping up and down about Syrians who DOESN’T do everything possible to deport illegal invaders dropped off in some of the lovely neighborhoods the invaders have created and left there for a week.
Oh, please stay strong, Governors....
27 is a majority. A few more is a super majority and strong enough to shove it up Obama’s .........
I’ll wait for Cruz to answer the constitutional question if congress can stop these “refugees”. I think I read he has already written a bill about this to be passed by the Senate. However, knowing McConnell our bird brain Majority Leader, I doubt he will let it come up for a vote. There should be news about this bill shortly.
If a no-carry state can throw an out-of-state legal carry into jail for crossing into their state, sure as horses a state can throw people out that cross their state lines if they come from a AK47 & bomb carry out-of-country country.
Can a Governor close the borders of his state? No. Obama can import anyone and ship them to any state, as he has been doing since 2009. He doesn’t care what any Governor says.
in Obama’s mind 27 states is NOT a majority of the 57 states.
Thank God it’s election season and Chris Christie of NJ - where I pay property taxes (as opposed to my little rental in NYC) - is being forced to take a stand on this. I have no faith in him so I think he did this out of a cynical concern to boost his poll numbers. But I’ll take it!
It’s a nice statement by the guvs and I’m glad they’re doing it, but once they’re in, they’re in. It doesn’t matter at that point.
I’m no lawyer but I’m betting it’ll be up to the courts.
Much better would be the republicans refusing to fund the refugee program.
But that would involve a “government shutdown” and of course they have no balls, so it won’t hapopen.
Yes, they can turn away these invaders. I am surprised that Utah governor want them.
Why is the Obama administration trying to “resettle” these people in the United States? If we are going to take in “refugees” or “migrants” or whatever the term du jour is, we should let them know that they will bet staying in barracks on closed military installations and while there will be fed a 1,200 calorie a day diet. They will not be allowed to access to the entire closed base, but only a small portion of the base. The portion of the base will be patrolled and the use of deadly force will be authorized for anyone outside the compound. And when the fighting is over in Syria, as determine by either the POTUS or a majority vote in either the House or the Senate, all the Syrians will be transported back to Syria. And, in exchange for food, shelter, and some clothing, each of our guests will be fingerprinted, have retinal scans, and DNA records made so that those people will never be allowed to immigrate to the United States and never allowed a visa to visit the United States.
I’ve been praying for Governors and Sheriffs to take the lead in telling the Feds to stuff it - they could lead the people in taking our Nation back.
...they can also stop funding Planned Parenthood in their states.
I applaud the governors who are trying to defend their states; however, if just a single governor of a state on the North American continent allows refugees in *without containing them in a secure refugee facility*, then how would we go about preventing them from travelling as they wish to any other state? One of the jokers has already gone AWOL in Louisiana...
This is going to be a problem, one way or another and we need to prepare ourselves in every sense of the word. I surely hope someone in an appropriate position of authority is thinking a few chess moves ahead because I firmly believe we are going to be playing terrorist whack-a-mole on our own soil in the near future - perhaps as early as the Christmas holidays. I also believe 0bama will skate, unblemished by the havoc his mis-guided, anti-American point of view inflicts on the nation.
