Massachusetts (lesbian) Attorney General Maura Healey is suing President Trump over his controversial executive order on immigration that she said strikes at the state's “lifeblood” in barring workers and students vital to its universities, medical centers and technology firms.
“Because of our people we have truly become a global state and a global leader,” Healey said. “That’s just one reason why this executive order is such a threat — because it threatens the vitality, the livelihood, the lifeblood, that drives so much of Massachusetts.”
Healey's message to Trump: “No one is above the law.”
“Our job in government and here in the attorney general’s office is to make sure that we uphold the rule of law, that we uphold the tenets and the principle set forth in our state constitution and our United States Constitution,” Healey said. “The executive order is unconstitutional and must be struck down, and we need to be prepared at all turns to take action as an office when and if someone acts in ways that are unlawful or unconstitutional.
“Whether it the president of the United States or a federal agency … we will be prepared to take action,” Healey said.
Flanked by business leaders, education officials and directors from advocacy groups, the Democratic attorney general blasted Trump’s immigration order as “harmful, discriminatory and unconstitutional,” and announced that she’d join a federal lawsuit filed in Boston on Saturday against the measure.

That quote from Healey doesn’t even come close to passing the laugh test.
Yes. Healey is the Massachusetts AG who blatantly violates the law and conspires to destroy legitimate companies,
based on “Climate Change” nonsense.
She should be in jail. Unfortunately, the Supreme Court has ruled that prosecutors have immunity to do nearly anything without repercussions.
I had several. Rust buckets one and all, but a kick-butt little roadster that was pure fun to drive.
Had a friend in the navy that extended for six years, got a big bonus, bought a de Tomaso Pantera...totaled it within the month. He was fine...well, except for the 6 year extension.
MA has plenty of immigrants, and most in professional positions don’t come from any of the seven countries included in the bad, so Maura’s being a ‘concern troll’.
Then why aren't the Clintons in jail?
My “Stood ‘n begged ‘er” ran great, but the ignition switch failed, so I wired in a toggle switch and taped it to the steering column. I ran around over a fair swath of Honshu from Camp Zama, Yokohama down to Yokosuka, where the Fleet came in occasionally.

But the wacko feminazi politicians in MA—as well as the university administrators who have become leftist indoctrinators instead of educators—are not. Sad!
I was educated in two of these MA institutions, and worked at a third one, way back before the “Snowflake Era” (i.e., pre-2000). So I find this whole thing particularly sad.
Some of these universities can and should work with the Trump Administration to bring advanced manufacturing to the USA and to cure disease, among other things. But if they become sidetracked with Marxist politics and aiding our chief enemies, the muslims, that will not happen. REALLY sad!!!!
Martha Coakley without the charm!
