California AG Claims Rescinding DACA is Unconstitutional
Breitbart ^ | 6 Sep 2017 | Joel B. Pollak

President Donald Trump argued Tuesday that his predecessor’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program “is unlawful and unconstitutional and cannot be successfully defended in court.”

But California Attorney General Xavier Becerra, who has vowed to lead the so-called “Resistance” to Trump, argued the opposite, claiming that the president’s decision to rescind DACA Tuesday was unconstitutional — though he did not explain why.

“We believe the Trump administration has violated the Constitution, federal law, and certainly we believe wholeheartedly the Trump administration has ignored the American people,” Becerra said, according to the Fresno Bee.

He threatened to sue the administration over rescinding DACA, echoing comments by New York’s governor and attorney general — though none of them explained clearly what part of the Constitution Trump had violated.

Well,he's got that *half* right.There is unconstitutionality involved with "DACA".....it's enactment!

Want proof...just listen to the dozens of times Obola *himself* admitted that he didn't have the legal authority to do so....before he did it,that is.

All someone on the left has to do is “believe” and the dishonest MSM will back them 100%.

My hunch is that Xavier is a graduate of the University of Guadalajara Law School.And that's assuming he ever got past the 6th grade.

The American people elected President Trump on his commitment to secure our borders.

So now we get lectures on the Constitution - written by a gang of Evil White Anglo-Saxon Protestants - from the appointed, not elected, Mexican Attorney General (Abogado General?) of El Estado de Alta California.

What a laugh. We defeated his ancestors in 1846, 1898 and 1915, and he tells us what our laws are?

“Now, let’s be clear — this is not amnesty, this is not immunity. This is not a path to citizenship. It’s not a permanent fix. This is a temporary stopgap measure that lets us focus our resources wisely while giving a degree of relief and hope to talented, driven, patriotic young people… Precisely because this is temporary, Congress needs to act.” — President Obama, June 15, 2012

Liberal Logic: it is Unconstitutional to rescind our Unconstitutional act.

DACA was not legal in the first place.

If we had an opposition party, they could have stopped this dead in its tracks in 2012.

DACA is not the law.

It wasn't even constitutional.

Unfortunately, the courts are stacked, so Becerra may get his way.

The California AG has no grasp of Constitutional matters.

Now that that’s out of the way...

Sigh. As if “constitutional” even means anything anymore.
