Sessions declared war on California’s sanctuary state cities and state law

Sacramento – United States Attorney General Jeff Sessions made a visit to Sacramento Wednesday to announce a lawsuit against California for its sanctuary state and cities policies of interference and lack of cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. “American Citizens Have Dreams Too,” Sessions said, paraphrasing President Donald Trump’s recent statement.

Gov. Jerry Brown, appearing caught off guard and rattled, attacked Sessions’ appearance as a “political stunt” that was full of “lies” and untruths, and attacked Sessions and his perceived antagonistic relationship with President Donald Trump

Jerry Brown also mentioned Fox News. What the heck does a cable news network have to do, with governmental action? Brown was rambling and incoherent in his response. Sort of how Nancy Pelosi can be incoherent.

When Magoo sends a Nicholas Katzenbach-type to Sacramento to confront Moonbeam Brown, I’ll take his seriously.

Translation-

Jeff Sessions has an open checkbook out with pen in hand to any California county willing to stop making public statements about harboring illegals from the feds. It's ok to do it just not talk to the media and embarrass him.

Sessions didn’t “declare war” on anyone. By filing a lawsuit that’ll take years to settle, he performed the legal equivalent of “farting in their general direction.” Next, he’ll send a really, really strongly-worded letter.

That's your answer right there.

Motions, depositions, appeals, counter-suits, the 9th circuit...what a joke....Magoo needs to do something demonstrative, like lock that rotten Marxist mayor from Oakland up for starts.

Thank you so much for the research. A legal and reasoned approach to the illegal allien debacle will not occur in The Swamp. It is way too deep and wide. And Trump is only one of a handful with any power to take on the monster. Trump is but a speed bump on the road to Fundamental Transformation of America.
