Democrats are using arguments for states’ rights as a cynical ploy to paint themselves as victims of an oppressive federal government.
There’s an old adage that says history doesn’t repeat, but it does rhyme. As the past few years have shown, Democrats aren’t too keen on history, especially American history. In fact, they hate American history so much that they probably don’t realize they’re repeating it.
In their rebellion against Trump’s constitutional purview and mandate to enforce immigration laws, Democrats have resorted to using almost the exact same talking points that southern leaders used leading up to the outbreak of the Civil War.
In the midst of increasing attacks on federal law enforcement in lawless blue cities like Portland and Chicago, President Donald Trump ordered the deployment of National Guard troops to protect ICE agents who are upholding immigration law.
And seemingly overnight, Democrats became champions of states’ rights and the 10th Amendment in a cynical ploy to paint themselves as victims of federal oppression. Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker deemed it an “invasion” and called upon Texas Governor Greg Abbott to ignore Trump’s deployment of Texan National Guard troops to restore order. At a press conference, he warned Texas troops to “stay the hell out of Illinois.”
“We must now start calling this what it is: Trump’s Invasion,” Pritzker said in a post on X. “It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state’s military troops.”
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson took it a step further, signing an executive order on Monday that established an “ICE Free Zone,” prohibiting federal immigration agents from using city property in the execution of their duties. “We will not...”

This is my post on June ‘25:
California, the new Confederacy. All of this to protect their imported DemonKKKrat voters and the Congressional districts they are to gain. This should be the basis of a lawsuit against the DemonKKKrat Party; all the way to the Supreme Court.
Book marked.
Let the blue states split off, go their own way, and let them be a separate country with the mojados as their new lower class-indentured servants or esclavos nuevos. But this time, let’s just outlaw the democratic party in red states, ask for conservatives to leave blue states and send the democrats here to the blue ones-a citizen swap, including all reps and senators.
We keep DJT and VP Vance as pres and vp, keep our non-RINO reps and senators, go back to actually governing by the constitution, choose a new Supreme court with Clarence Thomas as Chief Justice, split the tax money and debt fairly based on the % each state paid in versus how much they took out over the past year, keep each person’s SS account with them, etc. I doubt they would want any of the current military members, other than the ones who wanted to live in blue states, so we’d get most of that, too.
Then let’s see how long blue America survives without descending into anarchy or getting into a war with some other country because of being clueless-or letting their alligator mouth overload their hummingbird ass with someone like Vlad Putin or China’s Xi. I’d bet real money on 5 years or less...
