Wasn't there a parallel argument from the same party pre 1860?

Meanwhile, our RINO traitors in congress and the executive branch plot the biggest amnesty ever (probably for 30 million illegals):

I wonder if the Democrats are using the movie Mississippi Burning as a training manual?

I suggest any “exemption” be made universal and not limited to just a few places.

Then Trump should find every silly national law that is a nuisance to an efficient economy and has no beneficial purpose and exempt everyone from it.

Of course, the exemption would have to go to congress, in effect repealing the many silly laws of the past.

They are too stupid to think about getting rid of national labor laws because it’s a state issue.

These people pushed for all of these laws, to benefit and protect the people. Now that laws are inconvenient,, they no longer care.

Mississippi and Alabama could have made the same argument in the 50 and 60’s.

They will be absorbing the ‘fiscal consequences’ of their sanctuary status.

Are they willing to also be exempt from any government funding? If they don’t want to live by the laws of the land, then they shouldn’t benefit from the largess of said land

This is insane. It’s like a spouse who runs up massive debt on credit cards, then expects the other spouse to be just fine with sacrificing long-term goals and short-term necessities to pay for it all.

“We are now expected to absorb the fiscal consequences of federal enforcement activities”

LOL! Yeah, that’s how it’s supposed to work, numbnuts. Decades of cost-shifting your fairy tales onto the backs of Americans, unlawfully, needs to end.
