Is LA a net positive Fed cash flow geography?
Send him a case of tainted tamales.
They may try something like what Turkey did to the EU: bring in very large numbers of illegals to LA, then push them out into neighboring states.
When the rest of the country takes off under Trump’s economic plan, CA will be left behind. They can only raise the gas tax & DMV fees so high, before the collapse comes.
With 49 other states more friendly to businesses, nobody is going to want to continue to be here & certainly no new business will come.
***Weaponized Government ALERT***
Tell you what, L.A. scumbag officials, we have millions of volunteers who are going to help ICE do their job. Self deport or be evicted.
They will get a liberal a-hole judge to say defunding sanctuary cities is “unconstitutional”
I hope I am wrong. But I doubt it.
What will LA do? Send him a strongly-worded letter written in Spanish?
Cut their water.
Send in troops, kick the doors to city hall down and drag off the SOBs in chains, never to be seen again for the duration.
At some point can’t the Federal system jail some in California or elsewhere with obstruction.
Councilman David Ryu, Councilwoman Nury Martinez, Councilman Jose Huizar, Analyst Felipe Chavez. There is a connection here.
The federal government owes no city any money.
The feds aren’t *going after* anyone. They are just holding back funding the cities should never have gotten in the first place.
What’s LA going to do to *hit back*?
Throw a temper tantrum?
Yes, it is voluntary, if you want the federal funds, you’ll comply with it. If you don’t, then don’t.
I wonder where these liberals were when federal highway funds were threatened if states didn’t enact a 21 or over drinking law or 55 mph speed limits... Surely those were just as illegal in their book... Oh, right, it didn’t go against their agenda then.
Just enforce the law. They could have these council members arrested depending on how far they go.

It’s a concept so simple, even a democRat should be able to understand...
Federal money always comes with strings attached. If you don’t like the restrictions, then don’t take the money.
Sorry, ain’t nothing to delicately unravel the spaghetti of our once Republic.
States shouldn’t be sending ANYTHING to Fedzilla; they *should* be enforcing their OWN laws.
Fedzilla shouldn’t be involved in 99% of what passes for ‘lawful’ these days (IOW: no authority and, most importantly, no $$$ to ‘give’).
The ONLY valid thing Fedzilla should be doing is perp walking all the criminal activity in the States AND Fedzilla (that last part is the biggest stretch. Though, why can’t the State(s) in return??); especially those violating the Rights of We the People (welfare, 2nd, etc.).
Fedzilla does anything but hand slap and the whole house of cards start to come down. Same reason we don’t see Fedzilla going after Hillary\Comey\etc. (the whole corrupt cabal known as D.C.).
