SAN FRANCISCO (KPIX 5) – The state of California is studying ways to suspend financial transfers to Washington after the Trump administration threatened to withhold federal money from sanctuary cities, KPIX 5 has learned.
“California could very well become an organized non-payer,” said Willie Brown, Jr, a former speaker of the state Assembly in an interview recorded Friday for KPIX 5’s Sunday morning news.
“They could recommend non-compliance with the federal tax code.”

It would be great if Trump sent a bunch of troops to CA bases and called it just an exercise.
In every conflict, there as collateral damages. It would be in their best interests to either leave or join a resistance movement. Guerrillas can fight for freedom and liberty under a righteous banner.
Just pull it out of the drawer and change a couple names...
“Yep! Lake Mead, without it they are in trouble. And don’t forget the Caltrans pensions :-)”
And stop all payments for college tuition on federal loans.
It’s said that they give more out to the Fed tax than they get back...well if that is the case let them hold back their funds and let the Fed hold back theirs. Let California fund every state program with their excess of funds they would have sent to the US government. Let them fund the Social Security payments of Californians living there as well. We’ll call it a pseudo “block grant” tranche of Federal funds that the us gov never recieved to in turn give back to them anyway!
If we are truly a nation of laws the perpetrators must be arrested and tried first.
... or even guilty.
Please give us FReepers a heads-up, so we can get out of the way.
The Jade Helm 15 military training exercises were held in Texas, Arizona, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, and Utah. Trump should hold the next Jade Helm in San Fransicko, Lost La La Land, Sackashito, and New Dork City. I’d include Chicongo but that is an active war zone.
“the Bay Area and Los Angeles” And Sacramento
REAL men in Texas have been grumbling about secession for years, but haven’t done it.
Why would those urban cowboy phags think they can?
It is too laugh, another empty threat from the left.
LOL! Gonna tell millions to ignore the law and then howl when funds are frozen/seized and folks end up going to jail....
Hey, this could turn out very well. And California could end up not having their electoral votes count also.
If Cali wants to play tough, trump should threaten closing all the Army, Marine, and Air Force military bases here.
To all the hate-California crowd who cheer for earthquakes destroying the state, killing the populace, you need to understand 3/4 of the state is red and the owner/operator of Free Republic is a CA resident.
Probably only require incineration of a 15 mile wide coastal strip and careful destruction in detail further inland. This Northerner agrees. Hard labor for surviving insurrectionists.
A few moneyed libs telling the rest of Cali how to live. The fed money won’t hurt them or their childRen anyway, as they are exempt via bank accounts. Nor Cal.. it’s past time to take the state back or declare Nor Cal it’s own state.
“They” are the legislators, officials and people that elected them. The people of California
The TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome)is strong in this one.
Time to re-open the mental institutions it is.
“When the IRS comes after us individual taxpayers, is the state of California going to shield us from federal government action somehow???”
Yes. Of course. Jerry Brown has your back!
... and losing it.
So,we're talking the same punishment Stalin meted out to the Ukraine,right?
