One can only marvel at the idea of an independent American state hiring a functionary of the federal government to defend the state against the federal government so that the independent American state can carry out the wishes of the statist bureaucrats of the federal government.

Talk about a waste of money. There are all sorts of conflicts of interest in this scheme. I hope the new AG files a Motion to Disqualify.

He should know how to deal with charlatans like this.

It's a very, very simple solution: Cut ALL Federal funding to the State. Let them know that, if they don't straighten up within a short amount of time, the flow of water and electricity from the Colorado river is next. Let the rotten, filthy, disgusting, ignorant, regressive, oppressive, anti-American, race baiting, leftist scumbag sanctuary state whither and die.

They'll come to their sense fairly quickly.

This is another friendly reminder that the Debt Ceiling restoration date of March 15, 2017 is a crucial one for Trump to leverage in order to get things done to stop reckless spending. My guess is that Holder will go to court to get some injunction that the “sanctuary” State/cities can keep getting money while they violate immigration laws. However the money can only flow if Congress appropriates it so Trump has to have resolve on this matter and go get some court injunction in place proactively to address spending issues.

Hillary Clinton, the Democratic candidate for president, defeated Mr. Trump by more than four million votes here.

Most of which were fraudulent votes by illegal aliens.

“Having the former attorney general of the United States brings us a lot of firepower in order to prepare to safeguard the values of the people of California,” Kevin de León, the Democratic leader of the Senate, said in an interview. “This means we are very, very serious.”


Values of CA = continue allow Illegals to vote & other types of voter fraud.

1) Drink!

2) I guess it's just a template that we're going to see in every article for the next four years, kinda like our taglines here or a Signature in an email. The writers don't even have to write it themselves any more.

I wonder how soon it will be before Holder is under an indictment from a DC Grand Jury for all of his shenanigans as AG?

USAG needs to prosecute Holder for perjury to Congress.

CA thinks that Holder will still have power in the new administration.

He will not.

Holder played the part of the bully while he had the massive resources of the Federal government behind him. But now he’s not the biggest kid on the block. California will find that the bully really isn’t a very good lawyer.
