We the People request that all Governors, Sheriffs and Chiefs of Police resist the ongoing felonies being committed by the Obama Administration.

We request that all Governors, Sheriff's and Chiefs of Police revoke the sworn police powers of the officers of all agencies engaged in the committing of felonies under color of authority.
While the courts maintain, so far, that the Government may choose not to enforce immigration laws, no Court can authorize or permit Federal Officers to commit felonies under color of authority.
Governors, Sheriffs, and Chiefs of Police are under no more obligation to provide manpower and resources to assist the Federal Officers than they are to provide manpower and resources to assist persons who distribute counterfeit bills. We request that the States revoke the peace officer powers of Federal Officers involved in Human Trafficking, and that they be told that they must immediately return the illegal aliens to their point of entry for deportation proceedings, and that further attempts to bring illegal aliens into the States, Counties, and Cities will result in arrests and prosecutions.

If they don’t comply with the Feds wishes, they don’t get the Feds money. It’s not an obvious threat of force but it is a threat all the same.
The states should stop sending our money to DC. Let them starve.
Starve the beast! >
A waste of time and energy , 90% are in cahoots with Obama. Don’t believe that? Look how eagerly they accept the toys and money he gives them.
Too late.
The time to “request” sheriffs, chiefs of police, judges, governors, and other state and local officials to nullify criminal commands from Washington was January 23, 1973.
But nobody did it.
During the rescue movement, people were being arrested and punished for intervening to save babies’ lives, making themselves obstacles to the killing. People begged the Catholic bishops to remind the police that removing obstacles to the commission of a crime is to become an accomplice to that crime. No bishop did so. Instead, many bishops condemned those who were intervening.
Perhaps state and local officials will resist tyrannical acts from Washington when the system has broken down to such an extent that they are no longer receiving their god—their paychecks.
Just sent this to Governor Nikki Haley here in South Carolina. Thanks for posting!
Good observations. Must read for Leo’s. Bookmark.
Really? Hmmmmm, this is a new one on me. Can someone explain just how that would work?
The States have the authority to grant peace officer status within their jurisdictions. A State does not have to recognize the peace officer status of a Federal Officer, and can revoke the peace officer powers of Federal Officers within the boundaries of the State.
Good Luck.
"...starve the beast..."
FedGov is so entwined in our economy that to starve the beast so as to break the chain of tyranny would collapse the nation. Perhaps that is the only way out so the rebuilding can begin.
The fedgov is not going to voluntarily starve itself. The people involved in the fedgov are not altruistic saints performing their service for free.
If the fedgov is to starve, it will be done by political force, actual force or it will not be done at all.
