Trump and Sessions Go to War Against California, Sanctuary State
IWB ^ | Bob Shanahan

Posted on 03/08/2018 3:31:29 PM PST by davikkm

Attorney General Jeff Sessions was in Downtown Sacramento, California, the capital city of the nation’s first sanctuary state, on Wednesday to give a speech to the California Peace Officers Association, following the Trump Justice Department’s lawsuit filed on Tuesday, challenging the three recently passed state laws directly contradicting federal immigration law.

“The Department of Justice and the Trump Administration are going to fight these unjust, unfair, and unconstitutional policies,” Attorney General Sessions told law enforcement officials yesterday. This clash between federal immigration law and states’ sovereignty is necessary as the nation’s justice department is tasked with reducing crime in America and making cops’ jobs easier.

“Go to war”???

Nah. Not so much.

Maybe when they start putting California officials in jail for obstructing Federal law enforcement actions, THEN yeah, maybe we can call it war.

It is a war. What the headline got wrong is identifying the belligerent powers. CA is the attacker, with Sanctuary cities and states. The US is the attacked, now in a fight for its life.

California immigration radicals are pushing for secession

How many ordinary Californians are in in favor.

Not many perhaps, but we shall see in the next election.

I’ve lived in California since 1952 and I’m behind Prez. Trump 100%. Sending home 500,000 illegals who are draining this state dry need to be sent home.

Not even close to what should happen.

Sherman burned a swath of Georgia from West of Atlanta to Savannah over secession and the status of the slaves.

Trump needs to do the same to L.A. and SF to secure the freedom of the Americans.

Agreed. A war is intended to inflict casualties on the enemy.

At first, I thought Trump had good instincts with a lot of luck. Now I’m convinced Trump is a genius. He has driven home the point to all blue collar/working Americans that the democrats are now the party of the illegal aliens and will support them at all costs to this jobs and that trump and a growing number of republicans are for protecting and fighting for your jobs. Every time CNN/msnbc and the leftist media run video of Jerry brown, kamal, and Pelosi bitching about Trump and his administration taking on the illegals and how reckless trump is with his tariff talk and how bad it affects Wall Street, this theme is unquestionably reinforced. The lines of battle are clear as day and the democrat media lapdogs are now unknowingly repeating that theme on a daily basis. It is masterful. No other republican had the brains or the ability to do this but Trump.
