Sessions spoke at an event for California law enforcement and a day after the Justice Department announced it was filing a lawsuit against the “sanctuary city” state over three pieces of legislation that it said interferes with federal immigration policy.
~~~~~~~~~
Sessions said that while America admits the highest number of legal immigrants in the world, the American people deserve a legal, rational immigration system that protects the nation and preserves the national interest. “It cannot be the policy of a great nation to reward those who unlawfully enter its country with legal status, Social Security, welfare, food stamps, and work permits and so forth. How can this be a sound policy?” he asked.
“Meanwhile, those who engage in this process lawfully and patiently and wait their turn are discriminated against, it seems, at every turn.” Turning to California, he described "open borders" policies that refuse to apprehend and deport illegal immigrants as a “radical, irrational idea that cannot be accepted” and rejected the right of states to obstruct federal immigration law.
“There is no nullification. There is no secession,” he said. “Federal law is the supreme law of the land. I would invite any doubters to go to Gettysburg, or to the tombstones of John C. Calhoun and Abraham Lincoln."
He then tore into Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf, who tipped off the public to an immigration raid in the San Francisco Bay Area last week -- a move he said led to as many 800 illegal immigrants evading capture and put both residents and law enforcement at risk.
“How dare you!” he said, addressing Schaaf. “How dare you needlessly endanger the lives of our law enforcement officers to promote a radical, open borders agenda.”

I had to file CEQA documents at the Fresno County clerks office this morning. It was the same 45 minute wait I have gotten used to for the last two decades. What struck me sitting there and waiting to be called up by the clerk is that 100% of the people waiting and crowding the waiting room area were Mexican. They were all speaking Spanish and not English. The clerk receptionists were speaking to all of these folks in Spanish as well as the clerks themselves. For an entire hour the only person out of 75 or more people in that office that spoke English were me and the Hispanic clerk assistant. The City of Fresno has become Mexico. It is not the place where I was born because of illegal immigration. Sacramento is no longer in the Untied States either. It has become Mexico. How long before there is nobody in Fresno government and the state capital that can speak English? It is time to leave this radical state the Democrats have given away!
Sessions wants Trump impeached. End of story.
Sessions wants Trump impeached. End of story.
It is stunning. Isn’t it?
The leftists in control of California are providing a foothold for the invasion and subsequent takeover of the United States by Mexico.
Troops need to be sent in to reconquer California. The libs and beans driven south or into the sea. Instead, this condition is being treated by harsh language by ‘our’ POS deep-state compromised AG.
“Sessions wants Trump impeached. End of story. “
Too true. That’s why we have a soviet style special counsel to investigate Trump. It was all orchestrated from the get-go...Sessions a key player. That’s why the POS hasn’t unrecused himself and put an end to the mueller coup.
Bull shit........ you have no evidence beyond false Free Republic groupthink
